The Docker/Buildroot toolchain produces 32-bit ARM binaries but the RG35XX target runs a 64-bit aarch64 userland. Add docs/TOOLCHAIN.md covering the full pipeline, config details, patches, and three possible approaches to fix the architecture mismatch. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# CLAUDE.md
|
|
|
|
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Project
|
|
|
|
SDLamp2 is a simple SDL2-based audio player written in C, designed for a child to use. It plays long m4a/mp3 files (fairy tale cassette rips) with a cassette-player-like UI: rewind, stop, play, fast-forward, next tape. Inspired by Winamp.
|
|
|
|
See `docs/sdlamp2-fsd.md` for the full functional specification and changelog.
|
|
See `docs/TOOLCHAIN.md` for cross-compilation toolchain details and the aarch64 migration plan.
|
|
|
|
## Build and Run
|
|
|
|
**Dependencies:** SDL2, SDL2_image, FFmpeg libraries (libavformat, libavcodec, libavutil, libswresample). Installed via system package manager (native) or into the Buildroot sysroot (cross-compile).
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
make # native build — uses pkg-config
|
|
make clean # remove build artifacts
|
|
./build/sdlamp2 [audio_directory]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Cross-compilation inside the Docker toolchain container (where `CROSS_COMPILE` and `PREFIX` are set by the environment):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
make # picks up CROSS_COMPILE and PREFIX automatically
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The controls spritesheet (`controls.png`) is embedded in the binary. If an external `controls.png` exists in the current working directory it takes precedence, allowing custom skins. Audio directory defaults to cwd if not specified.
|
|
|
|
No test suite, no linter.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
Single-file C program: `src/sdlamp2.c` (~650 lines). One generated header: `src/controls_png.h` (embedded PNG byte array — regenerate with `./tools/embed_png.py assets/controls.png src/controls_png.h` if the spritesheet changes).
|
|
|
|
Key sections in order:
|
|
- **Decoder struct** — holds all FFmpeg state (format/codec contexts, swr resampler, album art texture)
|
|
- **Position persistence** — `save_position()`/`load_position()` read/write a tab-separated `positions.txt` in the audio directory
|
|
- **File scanning** — `scan_audio_files()` finds supported files (.m4a, .mp3, .wav, .ogg) in a directory
|
|
- **Decoder lifecycle** — `decoder_open()` sets up FFmpeg + swr pipeline (planar float → interleaved stereo 48kHz), `decoder_pump()` feeds decoded audio into an SDL_AudioStream, `decoder_seek()` handles seeking
|
|
- **File switching** — `switch_file()` saves position, opens new file, restores saved position
|
|
- **Main loop** — event handling (mouse clicks on button rects), decoder pumping, SDL audio queue draining, EOF handling, rendering (album art, progress bar, control buttons from sprite sheet)
|
|
|
|
Audio pipeline: FFmpeg decoder → libswresample (format conversion) → SDL_AudioStream (FIFO) → SDL audio device queue (push model, no callback).
|
|
|
|
Uses SDL2 (not SDL3). Uses `#if LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT` preprocessor checks to support both old (channel_layout) and new (ch_layout) FFmpeg channel layout APIs.

## Conventions
|
|
|
|
- C formatted with Google style, `ColumnLimit: 100`
|
|
- Keep it simple — Casey Muratori's semantic compression; don't refactor too soon
|
|
- Minimize dependencies; discuss with owner before adding any
|
|
- Non-fatal errors go to stderr and continue; fatal errors (SDL init failures) abort via `panic_and_abort()`
|
|
- Update the changelog in `docs/sdlamp2-fsd.md` when making changes
