- If the runtime flag of a bx_list_c object is set, all it's items are set up
as runtime options.
- Set the runtime parameter for all top-level runtime-only lists. Setting up
each single parameter is no longer needed.
- moved some options to the top and some legacy ones to the end of the function
- added some info to the legacy keyboard options
- removed 'text_snapshot_check' keyword
- some coding style changes
- added 'wavein' parameter to specify the wave input device if necessary
- if 'wavein' is not set, Bochs uses the 'waveout' value for input, too
- SB16: the 'wave' parameter is now only used to specify the filename (mode 2 or 3)
- TODO: implement 'wavemode' feature for ES1370 similar to SB16
- added 'sound' option to select the driver and the wave output device
(see bochsrc sample for details)
- the wave device option of sb16 and es1370 is now only used to set up the
wave input device (if necessary)
- cleaned up the speaker code to initialize the 'sound' case correctly
higher resolutions and > 8 bpp graphics modes. The RFB gui with limited
capabilities is still available.
TODO:
- fix random segfaults in dimension_update()
- Windows (MinGW) support
- fixes for clients not supporting 'rfbEncodingNewFBSize'
- fix cursor shape after dimension update()
- after parsing command line only update actions if default has changed
- bx_init_hardware(): extra update of log actions in quick start mode not needed
- isempty() returns 1 if string length is 0 or string has special value "none"
- sprint() copies the formatted / converted string into a buffer
- use new methods in some parts of the code (TODO: win32 dialogs)
- check for the special value "none" to avoid failures
- moved 'user_shortcut' option to the keyboard option
- added new bx_param_c option value BOCHSRC_HIDDEN for parameters that should
only be available in the config interface. The new bochsrc option save and
parser function skip parameters with this flag set. This is useful for
parameters that will be set from the parser in a different way.
- save keyboard bochsrc line using the parameter list directly
- parse keyboard bochsrc options (except 'keymap') using the parameter list
- user shortcut: old-style syntax has already been removed
- increased minimum value for the keyboard's 'serial_delay'
- removed parameter "present" and use the new drive type "none" instead
- re-implemented cdrom media status parameter as a bx_param_enum_c
- TODO: change floppy media status parameter type to be consistent
- fixed bochsrc line after a "raw byte" string parameter
- changed parameter name "macaddr" to "mac" (same as bochsrc option parameter)
- skip disabled parameters when building the bochsrc line
- added "multiline" switch to select the output format (one or multiple lines)
- renamed siminterface method and use it in the network devices code
- renamed config parameter "i440fx_support" to "enabled"
- new config parameter "chipset" added (current choices "i430FX" and "i440FX")
- don't load ACPI support if the i430FX chipset is selected
- select register values for the core PCI devices depending on the chipset
- USB UHCI must be connected to a PCI slot if the i430FX chipset is used
- rombios changes to make the i430FX chipset work
- TODO #1: implement limitation to 1 cpu and 128 MB RAM for the i430FX chipset
- TODO #2: verify register behaviour of both chipsets
fixed enabling of ADX extensions in generic CPUID when enabled through .bochsrc
Small code cleanups on the way to implementation of APIC Registers Virtualization features disclosed in recent Intel SDM rev043
- TODO #1: fix pcipnic / pnic name problem to support direct plugin loading
- TODO #2: automatically assign PCI-only devices to a PCI slot if not already done
