- 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 new gui "vncsrv" and new bochsrc options "sound" and "speaker"
- related changes in the "sb16" and "es1370" descriptions
- started update of the SB16 documentation
- changed the order of some bochsrc options
- TODO #1: sync the order of bochsrc options in all files
- TODO #2: replace SB16 section by a new one (e.g. "Using sound")
- TODO #2: update SB16 stuff in the developer doc
- ALSA stuff moved from soundlnx.* to new soundalsa.* files
- SB16 / ES1370: including specific sound driver headers not necessary
- updated dependencies
- added parameters 'wavemode' and 'wavefile' to the 'es1370' option
- ES1370: added new method sendwavepacket() (similar to SB16)
- moved VOC file methods from sb16.cc to soundmod.cc and added macros for them
- SB16: minor fixes
- 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
The SMC problem was solved in following manner:
- Every trace linked to another remembers when it was linked (a special timestamp value called traceLinkTimeStamp)
- When true SMC happens it incremements the traceLinkTimeStamp
- Jump to the linked trace won't be allowed if traceLinkTimeStamp in the link doesn't match traceLinkTimeStamp
So SMC effectively breaks all trace links and therefore I should not care for them anymore
5%-10% speedup on OS boot benchamarks observed
- 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
- use LibVNCServer macros for pthread mutex support in the keyboard / mouse code
- workaround for WIN32: use critical section stuff instead (not yet present in
LibVNCServer)
- don't quit simulation on client disconnect (reverted to original behavior)
- don't wait for client connection on startup if timeout is set to 0
- RFB color handling rewritten to fix headerbar and statusbar colors in 8 bpp
graphics modes (they no longer depend on VGA palette)
- set maximum resolution to 1280x1024 (same as vncsrv)
- minor other changes
- vncsrv: noclient mode: simulation run even without client connected
- vncsrv / rfb: parse specific options before starting server thread
- vncsrv / rfb: panic on invalid timeout value
- vncsrv: don't wait for client connection if timeout value is 0
- vncsrv / rfb: removed unnecessary newlines
