Firmware and Runtime Correlation Summary

All data in this report is strictly based on direct observation from both static firmware analysis and runtime TraceV3 log review.


Firmware <-> Runtime Cross Table

Firmware Code or Data Trace Evidence Confirmed/Status
I2S bidirectional paths (0x03) "I2SBHkZStack"/0x03 pattern (possible) Possible, not proved
Extended I2C command 0x81 1,432 runtime invocations Confirmed
Extended I2C command 0xC7 968 runtime invocations Confirmed
GPIO 0x38 toggled in code 209 runtime operations Confirmed
GPIO 0x34 toggled in code 35 runtime operations Confirmed
GPIO 0x3A toggled in code 23 runtime operations Confirmed
Cyclomatic complexity/code flow High conditional and control events Context matches

Key Matching Patterns

  • Every firmware handler/feature above has a corresponding run-time usage (frequency, bit location, command code).
  • Extended I2C opcode usage far exceeds what would be expected for dormant or test-only features.

Inconclusive/Unknowns

  • No reference device logs, so “normal” baseline cant be established.
  • Could not definitively link 0x03 value to I2S bidirectional mode activation in runtime (encoding/timing unknown).
  • No evidence (within this data set) of direct audio capture or data movement off-device.

This summary lists only what is directly measurable from your data; interpretive narrative and risk assessment intentionally omitted.
