There is no access to flash0:/ from even a kernel module or user module. You unassign and reassign must be failing, but the code you've given just prints an error and continues without stopping. You can use one of these methods.

1) If you are just making an EBOOT application, then instead of making it user mode, make it VSH mode by giving 0x800 in PSP_MODULE_INFO("flash0w", 0x800, 1, 0);

Now you can unassign and reassign then freely read and write flash0:/.

2) If you are making a user mode prx or an EBOOT, then load DAX's iop.prx first. It comes with his LEDA application.

3) If you are making a kernel mode prx then #include <systemctrl.h> and add -lpspsystemctrl_kernel to your makefile libs. Then call this before assign, or open file, or read, or write.

int k1 = pspSdkSetK1(0);
int level = sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(8);

sceIoOpen(...);

sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(level);
pspSdkSetK1(k1);

this:
sceIoClose;
does nothing.

okay this is gettng annoying, i called the iop.prx, it loaded it but still only flashed the camera_plugin.prx but it left the camera_plugin.rco empty

whats going on here?

[PsPfReAK]

okay i found out my flash isnt un assigning, this is my code

[J.F.]

What error code are you getting from it?

[Torch]

Try making it usermode with iop.prx. Though I know that you CAN assign/unassign from a VSH mode eboot.

[PsPfReAK]

dont worry about the assigning problem, turned out that i was giving my psp to many kernal commands, i think....
im still trying to get that camera_plugin.rco though, still no hope
also

[PsPfReAK]

okay, another error, when i use the code above when i try to assign flasho afterwards it wont let me, its say cannot un-assign flash....
any suggestions?

[PsPfReAK]

okay when i use this before assigning

int k1 = pspSdkSetK1(0);
int level = sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(8);

sceIoOpen("flash0:/vsh/camera_plugin.rco", PSP_O_RDONLY, 0777);

sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(level);
pspSdkSetK1(k1);

it wont let me un assign flash

so can someone tell me how to do it, like ive tried everything i can think off
this is it currently


int k1 = pspSdkSetK1(0);
int level = sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(8);

sceIoOpen("flash0:/vsh/camera_plugin.rco", PSP_O_RDONLY, 0777);

sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(level);
pspSdkSetK1(k1);

pspSdkLoadStartModule("iop.prx", PSP_MEMORY_PARTITION_KERNEL);
p2c(" Assigning flash0....\n ");
if (sceIoUnassign("flash0:") < 0)
errorExit("Cannot Un-Assign flash0:");
if (sceIoAssign("flash0:", "lflash0:0,0", "flashfat0:", IOASSIGN_RDWR, NULL, 0) < 0) {
errorExit("Error Assigning flash0 in write mode"); }
p2c(" Flash Assigned\n");
copyFile("flash0:/vsh/module/camera_plugin.prx", "ms0:/camera_plugin.prx");
copyFile("flash0:/vsh/resource/camera_plugin.rco", "ms0:/camera_plugin.rco");

but yet it only copies the prx

its a eboot it vsh mode (0x800)

can anyone help?

[PsPfReAK]

so your saying no one knows how to this?

[Torch]

Theres no need for VSH mode 0x800 if you are using iop.prx, make it user mode 0x0

[PsPfReAK]

still in user mode it wont let me unnassign flash0
it only does this when this is in

int k1 = pspSdkSetK1(0);
int level = sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(8);

sceIoOpen("flash0:/vsh/camera_plugin.rco", PSP_O_RDONLY, 0777);

sctrlKernelSetUserLevel(level);
pspSdkSetK1(k1);

so how should i go about it?



any help!!!!

[Torch]

First of all how can you call sctrlKernelSetUserLevel from a user mode prx?? I'm not at my dev PC but I'm pretty sure its a kernel only export.

If you're in kernel mode then iop.prx won't work.

[PsPfReAK]

well, it works when i go to test m33 but when i test it in the actual psp it still only copies the prx not the rco

[Jim]

You still are not closing the files!

Thats probably because of the permissions of the files. Test M33 or DC installed firmware sets all permissions on the files to 0777 which is full access.

[PsPfReAK]

@jim

where do i close them

in the flashing code or where i actually flash it?

SOLVED

i just rewrite the copy code

[Jim]

For every file you handle=sceIoOpen, you should have a matching call to sceIoClose(handle). I'm not saying it'll fix your problem, but there are a limited number of file handles available (32?) and once they are all gone you won't be able to open any more files ever.
