Hi Knob
Im very interested in the first one of your documents (ZSP 400
with instruction set), but it seems the link isn't longer working.
Regards
Benny

It's still waiting for the site admin to make the link active, then it will be available to you download. :wink:

in the meantime it's here:-
Zsp400 Technical Manual

yes, thnx a lot for this doc. since we know the instruction code set we are able to investigate the firmware files (RFW) to find out where code gets stored and which format gets used to separate between different apps. because the image data get's stored unencrypted directly inside the file (that's why dancemammals editor works) i don't think the code get's encrypted in any way. the update tool directly writes this data to the flash chip, page by page. when you have a quick look at the RFW header, you are able to extract the following content (from file "RockChip_firmware_(PowerPack).zip"):

Code:
id: ROCK260x
year: 2005
version: VER5.00

block 64: fofs=003C47BC, size=006417DC, attr=6FAEFFB2
block 01 (or file 01) get's written to the flash chip directly on every upload. blocks of greater numbers too, but to different places. the last block contains all image ressources. maybe the attribute 6FAEFFB2 is uniqe for ressource data. to be sure on that i have to test this against all other firmware files first. possibly one block contains the bootloader ROM for the RK chip. this one should be detectable, because it directly starts with a JMP instruction in 99% of all cases and it may be of fixed size for all firmwares (how large is the ROM?).

the RFW file header structure i used to retrieve this informations:
Code:
typedef struct {
  unsigned __int32 flag;
  unsigned __int32 fofs;
  unsigned __int32 size;
  unsigned __int32 unkwn;
} RFW_HEADER_ENTRY;

typedef struct {
  char id[8];   //"ROCK260x"
  char year[4]; //eg. "2005"
  char ver[7];  //eg. "VER5.00"
  unsigned __int8 unkwn0013[12];
  char name[17];
  unsigned __int8 unkwn0030[0x250];
  RFW_HEADER_ENTRY entry[65];
} RFW_HEADER;
any more details about the unkwn0013/0030 fields are appreciated.
does the game-disassembler reads any special application-header, or in other words: do we have more informations how application code get's stored?

Hi wiRe
RKP-Format (actually only used for Games with the exception of my
first Test-Programm Data-Viewer) seems to be a special-format of code.
Firmware is a different thing, but uses the same instruction set and
the same processor:

i can't effort the time to continue the rockchip firmware extractor, thus i uploaded all rockchip-related sources to my svn repo.

you can find the link to sourceforge on my page:
