Unico Fun R1 Support? (Amlogic S905X based device)

[iokzero]

Hi Batocera Team,

Recently I come obtained an Unico Fun R1, a SNK officially licensed console made by the same company made the MVSX, Arcade Stick Pro, and NeoGeo Mini.

I manage to have it boot into to Batocera, and most of the things works, except the joystick(X2) and the WiFi. In fact Batocera, is by far the closest for me to get this thing working under a custom OS. NOTE: Coreelec also boot but USB don't work.

The Joysticks are connected to a JAMMA header that I believe is controlled by 8Bit micro controller. with the following info on the chip: STM8S105 C4T6 991TN RDVG MYS, 99 &31 I am not 100% what communication protocol it use to talk to the CPU.

The WiFi is a solider on daughter board with the following info on the chip: 8189ETV 1213M31 GI07

Both components didn't get recongize by the Kernel it seems, with the following dmesg:

` The AV port isn't fully tested because I don't have a Cable or TV for such LOL.

Not sure what's needed to get the full system running, but it would super cool to run Batocera or other custom OS on this device, the system is build like a tank, very solid. Might be a bit weak for other emulation, but it would great for NeoGeo and other Arcade games.

Thank you so much for this awesome distro.

[nadenislamarre]

hi, run the command : batocera-support and send me the file, i may be able to fix the joystick. you should join us on discord.

[iokzero]

batocera-support-20220604120240.tar.gz

Already am, Thanks for the help!

[nadenislamarre]

looks like the are missing modules. do you know the modules that are supposed to be loaded ? does it run on an other linux ? can you do lsmod on an other linux so see the required moduels ?

[iokzero]

Unfortunately, batocera and Coreelec is the only two OS I managed to get this system boot and the USB ports aren't working at all in Coreelec. Any OS that my u think I should give it tried that supports the S905X +1GB ram chipset?

[iokzero]

It looks like I would need this module 8189es to enable WiFi. Not sure if Batocera has it. But it seems like Armbian has it.

The Joysticks are still a mystery, or might need something custom? The STM8S105 microcontroller do have UART, SPI, and i2C. And sense it is not getting recognized as a USB device, I assume it might be using one of the above for its Joysticks.

[nadenislamarre]

BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8189ES is not set

is disabled for s905. i will build a beta for s905 and enable this module. you'll tell me if that's better.

[nadenislamarre]

for the STM8S105, my guess is that the dts is not ok. if you come on discord and discuss with demetris, probably he can say

[dmanlfc]

@iokzero I have added the wifi driver

[dmanlfc]

oops sorry @nadenislamarre I didn't see your last comments - I built & tested AOK

[nadenislamarre]

@dmanlfc i just added that

shouldn't we add these others ?

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8189ES # wanted for s905
• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL_433
• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8723DS
• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8812AU
• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8821CU

[nadenislamarre]

modification on linux-meson64-current.config are for the joystick ?

[nadenislamarre]

i've build a beta for s905 but let me retry with these new kernel settings

[nadenislamarre]

upload in progress on the serveur. new beta s905 with your modification are here in 5 min.

[dmanlfc]

@dmanlfc i just added that

shouldn't we add these others ?

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8189ES # wanted for s905

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL_433

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8723DS

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8812AU

• select BR2_PACKAGE_RTL8821CU

if they compile, it won't hurt - i compiled the 8189eu against the 5.10.x kernel aok

[dmanlfc]

modification on linux-meson64-current.config are for the joystick ?

yes i added a couple of things. i suspect however the 8-bit micro-controller isn't outputting HID to use for the joysticks. my suspicion will be some python & gpio which is ugly.

[dmanlfc]

@iokzero over to you...

[acmeplus]

The original internal DTS has the following gpio entry that matches all joysticks and buttons:

        umidokey {
                compatible = "amlogic, umidokey";
                status = "okay";
                scan_period = <0x14>;
                key_num = <0x20>;
                key_code = <0x134 0x130 0x136 0x137 0x183 0x180 0x17f 0x17e 0x17d 0x17c 0x186 0x00 0x185 0x184 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x9e 0x00 0x00 0x13b 0x13a 0x67 0x6c 0x69 0x6a 0x00 0x182 0x181 0x133 0x131>;
        };

So if the STM8 board is managing that board, it's exposed as a gpio interface using debugs should it be possible to see if there are unmapped gpio devices there.

Original kernel (3.14.29) has this I/O kernel config enabled: CONFIG_SERIO_AMBAKMI=y (AMBA KMI keyboard controller)

Could that be that simple?

[dmanlfc]

I doubt it, but please try unless they're mapping through a keyboard controller? I suspect the "amlogic, umidokey" is a non standard kernel module. Can you get root / lsmod with the supplied os?

[acmeplus]

According to @neocvera umido == unico, so basically it's the unico keyboard controller. It could be a variation of the same one found on the MVSX. I'll investigate.

Uploading extracted kconfig, DTB, and decompiled DTD from the r1 firmware. r1_kernel_dtb_files.zip

[iokzero]

Thank you so much for the help everyone, You are super awesome!

Unfortunately there is little help I can offer, other than looking things up from the physical hardware, and testing. As far as the STM8 goes, all I can do is figure out which pin goes to which button. and it did seem like there's a header that they use to program the chip with, (Just my guess.) I can share some imagery of the PCB board if that's something useful.

If there are things that you would like me to obtain or check from the android side of things, I will give it a try, if you can tell me what to do. It really has nothing useful from the interface they offer. you can kind of access the USB/SD a little, if there's a file type it can detect. and use the wifi to connect really nowhere. They said it is for future updates, which will never happen. (thought they claim that an update will happen this June or July, last time I asked. will see if it is true.)

Once again really appreciated with the help,

[dmanlfc]

Did the wifi work for v35 beta?

[neocvera]

where would I grab a compiled image of v35 beta? I have FUN R1 and can test wifi.

[dmanlfc]

@iokzero / @neocvera - https://mirrors.o2switch.fr/batocera/tvbox/beta/last/

[iokzero]

only the boot.tar.zx is downloadable. the other two file 404. Is that current?

[neocvera]

I downloaded the boot.tar.zx, extracted, copied over to SD/ replaced content. Enabled wifi - no networks found.

[nadenislamarre]

hum, not normal. however, just execute :batocera-upgrade https://mirrors.o2switch.fr/batocera/tvbox/beta/last/

[nadenislamarre]

ok. and dmesg say something interesting ?

[neocvera]

ok. and dmesg say something interesting ? dmesg.txt

[nadenislamarre]

no.

[iokzero]

Upgrade with working WiFi ! (Haven't really use it for anything heavy loaded, but it is able to connect to network, and scan other network in my area.)

[neocvera]

Upgrade with working WiFi !

lol mine didn't - maybe i should go the upgrade route. maybe i missed something.

[neocvera]

About the file @acmeplus supplied earlier, can an image be recompiled using the whole amlogic s905 stack, to have the kernel + boot merged into a single uImage file?

[iokzero]

I used this command while connect to ethernet: Batocera-upgrade https://mirrors.o2switch.fr/batocera/s905/beta/last/

[neocvera]

Upgrade with working WiFi ! (Haven't really use it for anything heavy loaded, but it is able to connect to network, and scan other network in my area.)

confirmed - wifi is scanning and displaying available connections - was not successful in making a connection/ connecting to my network.

[nadenislamarre]

let me rebuild a beta today with the exact commited modification (and some recent changes on wifi scripts) to confirm it still works

[nadenislamarre]

it will be done after the rpi4 build. so, in 5hours, a new s905 beta will be these to confirm that only joystick is missing.

[iokzero]

@neocvera This is also something I noticed that, network connection is sometime, not perfectly stable. like sometime it will take a very long time to be connected, even with ethernet. if connected at all. Sometime I just reboot it, and it will get connected faster.

[neocvera]

@neocvera This is also something I noticed that, network connection is sometime, not perfectly stable. like sometime it will take a very long time to be connected, even with ethernet. if connected at all. Sometime I just reboot it, and it will get connected faster.

Yeah - the wifi - seems more a novelty at this point; however, ethernet, i am able to establish consistent connections, SSH etc.

[nadenislamarre]

CONFIG_SERIO_AMBAKMI=y was already enabled on the kernel in b34

[nadenislamarre]

s905 updated. can you feedback please ?

[acmeplus]

Reviewing things further I found there's a reference to /dev/umidokey inside the firmware that seems to be called from the emulator. Most likely the device is initialized directly via android gadget driver.

[iokzero]

s905 updated. can you feedback please ?

I can confirm that everything work as far as I can tell, except for the Joysticks. and the AV port (at least the sound doesn't work.And I can't test the video due to lack of cable and TV) Not sure if this is a setting thing or lack of driver.

I upgraded over WiFi using the previous build. Both USB ports work. Assuming the SD card slot works sense I booted from there, and Of course the HDMI is working too (with sounds).

Thanks!

I'll just jump on this and also confirm. In fact, the wifi experience was much better this go around (applying latest latest update) easy connection and able to access the system via network, etc.

I did try headphones in the av port with no success - I have a 3.5mm to AV cable but no cables to connect to it and device to test.

As mentioned, HDMI (video+sound) work well. USB ports, and SD slot all functioning, just not on-board buttons/controls.

[iokzero]

Just out of curiosity, if Batocera even actually support the AV port on other S905/S905S or similar systems at all. Given how rare they are getting everyday.

I mean I would still love to use it for headphones. Which I am not sure if it will mute the audio from the HDMI, when plugged in. (Not even sure if that's how it works, LOL) But just wondering.

[iokzero]

I managed to boot into armbian, Is there any useful thing I can do over there?

[dmanlfc]

@iokzero only if armbian does something we cannot, like the controllers :-)

[iokzero]

@iokzero only if armbian does something we cannot, like the controllers :-)

Nothing worthy have yet found. but it does have more tools like hwinfo, lshw, etc. And I did make a back up of the internal eMMc, but can't really see what's in there yet. so not even sure if that's a proper back up. And of course, it seems like the manual has lie once again, it only have 8GB of eMMc, (It said it has 16GB on the Manual~ LOL)

[iokzero]

Given the following information from below, can we make the assumption that the microcontroller is communicating to the S905X with one of the following: UART, SPI, i2C ? Or am I totally off?

https://www.cnx-software.com/2016/01/12/amlogic-s905x-processor-specifications/ https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/stm8s105c4.pdf

I did check for i2C device, and nothing is detect that might related to the controller. but I am not 100% if the i2C port is setup and ready to use or, is there anything at the device tree I need to enable first. (still trying to learn how this stuff works, LOL)

[acmeplus]

I've just started doing some testing with the R1. Connected the UART, and started to check the different boot messages with the original firmware, batocera, and libreelec. The first thing is that it's confirmed that the controls are attached to a dedicated gpio device called umidokey that is consistent with the previously extracted DTD file . The ofw boot sequence shows that being initialized:

I'm currently planning to start building the same kernel version as the extracted config one (3.4.29) and start applying the kconfig extracted from the ofw kernel to understand it a bit better. However, looking at the traces it's clear that it's a custom kernel/driver issue.
