- a few weeks ago I changed the gui code so that it always made a copy
of the clipboard data using new Bit8u[] and passed it into the keyboard
code. But I didn't get the keyboard code quite right, and Christophe
noticed the incorrect malloc that I had forgotten to remove. I changed
it to work as I intended:
1. gui code allocates paste buffer (new), copies clipboard data in
2. gui code passes the buffer to the keyboard code, and forgets about it
3. keyboard code uses the buffer, then frees it when finished (delete)

I got Win95 running with 32-bit paging/filesystem using the
recommended driver and these patches. Since the patches did
such a good job bracketing code modifications with a #define,
they might as well become part of the current CVS code.
The function gets the real time in useconds and puts it in
a Bit64u. This function is defined when:
BX_HAVE_REALTIME_USEC is 1.
Right now, BX_HAVE_REALTIME_USEC is defined to be BX_HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY
and bx_get_realtime64_usec is defined in terms of gettimeofday().
However, it could be defined in terms of any other method of obtaining
the current time accurate to the usecond. That is why I moved the
function to osdep and added the new define.
- Features :
. number of active channels defined at boot-time config
. new options in bochsrc
. up to 8 devices support (disks or cdroms)
. up to 4 cdrom devices can be changed at runtime config
. wxwindows config interface
- PacketSetReadTimeout: instead of calling with a very short timeout,
now we call it with -1 which means no timeout.
- Psyon found that Peter Tattam's changes, while necessary for win95, broke
WinNT/2000. So now on Windows NT/2000, we still call
WaitForSingleObject(lpAdapter->ReadEvent,0) but we ignore the return value.
- hardcode BX_HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY=0 if cross compiling for VC++
(this part hasn't been tested)
- modified files: configure configure.in config.h.in iodev/pit_wrap.cc
- pci2isa prefix changed to "P2I"
- device name changed to "PIIX3 PCI-to-ISA bridge"
- added more default values to the reset() function
- added stubs for i/o mapped registers
- array pci_conf[] is now a part of the structure s
a precursor to making it a runtime option. I'm not
sure how to do this, but it should be trivial. All it
would take is adding the option and changing the
macro for BX_USE_REALTIME_PIT to point to that option.
and I could never explain it. The problem was that in keyboard.cc it
included "math.h" with quotes instead of <math.h> with less than/greater
than, so gcc -MM didn't realize it was a system header.
set_text_charbyte()
- vga: store the address of the active charmap in the new variable
charmap_address
- vga: text mode hack removed. The write modes, operations and masks must be
used in text mode too.
- sdl: clear_screen() is not necessary when the charmap has changed
- win32: update only the changed font bitmaps before drawing the text
performance of the ne2K driver in win9x."
- receive timer set to 10000 instructions instead of 1000000.
- placed if (WaitForSingleObject(lpAdapter->ReadEvent,0) == WAIT_OBJECT_0) {}
around the read code.
to request bulk IO operations to IO devices which are bulk IO aware.
Currently, I modified only harddrv.cc to be aware. I added some
fields to the bx_devices_c class for the IO instructions to
place requests and receive responses from the IO device emulation.
Devices except the hard drive, don't monitor these fields so they
respond as normal. The hard drive now monitors these fields for
bulk requests, and if enabled, it memcpy()'s data straight from
the disk buffer to memory. This eliminates numerous inp/outp calling
sequences per disk sector.
I used the fields in bx_devices_c so that I would not have to
disrupt most IO device modules. Enhancements can be made to
other devices if they use high-bandwidth IO via in/out instructions.
vga_charmap
- the SDL gui uses the charmap data for the vga text display
* TODO: implement this feature for other guis
- removed unused variables in sdl.cc and gui.cc

Description:
Second try at implementing the "Debug:Show Cpu" and "Debug:Show
Keyboard" dialog with values that change as the simulation proceeds.
(Nobody gets to see the first try.) This is the first step toward
making something resembling a wxWindows debugger.
First, variables which are going to be visible in the CI must be
registered as parameters. For some variables, it might be acceptable
to change them from Bit32u into bx_param_num_c and access them only
with set/get methods, but for most variables it would be a horrible
pain and wreck performance.
To deal with this, I introduced the concept of a shadow parameter. A
normal parameter has its value stored inside the struct, but a shadow
parameter has only a pointer to the value. Shadow params allow you to
treat any variable as if it was a parameter, without having to change
its type and access it using get/set methods. Of course, a shadow
param's value is controlled by someone else, so it can change at any
time.
To demonstrate and test the registration of shadow parameters, I
added code in cpu/init.cc to register a few CPU registers and
code in iodev/keyboard.cc to register a few keyboard state values.
Now these parameters are visible in the Debug:Show CPU and
Debug:Show Keyboard dialog boxes.
The Debug:Show* dialog boxes are created by the ParamDialog class,
which already understands how to display each type of parameter,
including the new shadow parameters (because they are just a subclass
of a normal parameter class). I have added a ParamDialog::Refresh()
method, which rereads the value from every parameter that it is
displaying and changes the displayed value. At the moment, in the
Debug:Show CPU dialog, changing the values has no effect. However
this is trivial to add when it's time (just call CommitChanges!). It
wouldn't really make sense to change the values unless you have paused
the simulation, for example when single stepping with the debugger.
The Refresh() method must be called periodically or else the dialog
will show the initial values forever. At the moment, Refresh() is
called when the simulator sends an async event called
BX_ASYNC_EVT_REFRESH, created by a call to SIM->refresh_ci ().
Details:
- implement shadow parameter class for Bit32s, called bx_shadow_num_c.
implement shadow parameter class for Boolean, called bx_shadow_bool_c.
more to follow (I need one for every type!)
- now the simulator thread can request that the config interface refresh
its display. For now, the refresh event causes the CI to check every
parameter it is watching and change the display value. Later, it may
be worth the trouble to keep track of which parameters have actually
changed. Code in the simulator thread calls SIM->refresh_ci(), which
creates an async event called BX_ASYNC_EVT_REFRESH and sends it to
the config interface. When it arrives in the wxWindows gui thread,
it calls RefreshDialogs(), which calls the Refresh() method on any
dialogs that might need it.
- in the debugger, SIM->refresh_ci() is called before every prompt
is printed. Otherwise, the refresh would wait until the next
SIM->periodic(), which might be thousands of cycles. This way,
when you're single stepping, the dialogs update with every step.
- To improve performance, the CI has a flag (MyFrame::WantRefresh())
which tells whether it has any need for refresh events. If no
dialogs are showing that need refresh events, then no event is sent
between threads.
- add a few defaults to the param classes that affect the settings of
newly created parameters. When declaring a lot of params with
similar settings it's more compact to set the default for new params
rather than to change each one separately. default_text_format is
the printf format string for displaying numbers. default_base is
the default base for displaying numbers (0, 16, 2, etc.)
- I added to ParamDialog to make it able to display modeless dialog
boxes such as "Debug:Show CPU". The new Refresh() method queries
all the parameters for their current value and changes the value in
the wxWindows control. The ParamDialog class still needs a little
work; for example, if it's modal it should have Cancel/Ok buttons,
but if it's going to be modeless it should maybe have Apply (commit
any changes) and Close.
X windows, wxWindows. Each platform has its own way of returning
a variable length string, and its own rules about how you're supposed
to dispose of the string. Now all platforms do the same thing: they
allocate a Bit8u buffer with C++ "new" and copy the clipboard data in,
then release the clipboard data in the platform-specific correct way.
The Bit8u buffer is sent to the keyboard code, which frees it with
delete [] when finished.

class's prefix, NE2K. The real issue is that the ne2k class exists at
configuration time, so it is possible to tell it how to respond to
panics, errors, etc. The packet mover is created after configuration
depending on the setting of bx_options.ne2k.Oethmod, so I cannot
(with major hacks) affect its settings from the configuration interface.
Several packet movers were already set up this way anyway.
certain number of instructions. I use it for performance testing, and it
won't hurt anyone unless they are foolish enough to enable it in config.h.
Of course it is disabled by default!
Some devices already had one. Some I had to add an empty one.
I did a little cleaning of init() methods to make them more uniform
but generally I left them alone.
- I also put these exact diffs into a patch "patch.iodev-add-reset"
in case I want to revert these changes for some reason, for example
if they break an old patch. It should be deleted after a while.
to "*_ENABLED"
- bx_serial_options for all 4 ports moved into an array com[4]
- serial port com1 is enabled by default
- detection of com2, com3 and com4 config options disabled for now
- new parameter "enabled" added to the serial bochsrc options
- error handling for serial and parallel bochsrc options changed. The unhandled
BX_PANICs are replaced by BX_ERRORs.
- new function bx_write_serial_options() added
- serial destructor restores original terminal settings only when serial port
is enabled and the tty_id is valid
parport1 with the new option "enabled". The old option "enable" only
controlled the output. The parport1 is enabled with no output by default.
Changes:
* bochrc option "enable" replaced by "enabled"
* parport option "Oenable" replaced by "Opresent"
* bx_parport_options par1 and par2 replaced by an array par[2]
* initialize parport1 resources only when enabled
* renamed variable "parport_init_list" to "par_ser_init_list" since it
contains parport and serial options
* documentation and bochsrc updates
- the parport variables "output" and "initmode" now belong to the bx_par_t
structure
- TODO: add parport2 (disabled by default), parport detection in the bios
- PCI configuration space of the host bridge renamed from array[] to pci_conf[]
- new functions load_ROM() and mem_read() for ROM access
- macros for PCI functions defined in bochs.h
more work in the floppy and bios code.
- floppy and cdrom entries in the runtime config menu can be disabled if the
drive wasn't defined in bochsrc or start menu
- floppy variable "initial_status" and cdrom variable "inserted" renamed to
"status"
- unused variable *ips in function build_runtime_options_prompt() disabled
* new floppy type 360k can be used in .bochsrc and the config interface
* media type and geometry can be set for the floppy type
* BIOS changes to make 360k floppy drives work
* bximage can create 360k images now
and works okay with one rom track only. We still have to implement reading
the real TOC on win32.
- in function GetCDCapacity(): type of variable 'buf[8]' must be 'unsigned char'
- in function capacity(): win32 version returned the number of bytes, but it
should return the number of blocks (ASPI blocksize is 2352)
- description of the function capacity() fixed (it always returns blocks)
controller returns an error code until we are able to implement this feature.
- init_send_atapi_command(): don't panic if alloc_length is 0, use byte_count
to set alloc_length instead
- fixed a BX_PANIC message in the io write handler for port 0x1f0
- init(): set the initial status to BX_EJECTED if evaluate_media() fails
- don't modify the DOR when a drive > 1 is selected
- floppy command 'get status' now recognizes the head field
- floppy command 'recalibrate': don't set cylinder to 0 before completion
- floppy command 'sense interupt status' does not clear status register 0
- floppy command 'configure': more detailed BX_DEBUG messages
- floppy command 'read ID' does not modify status register 0
- floppy read/write commands: set the error bit in status register 0 if media
is not present
- better detection of not existing drives in some commands: check the media type
of the selected drive instead of the drive select value
- behaviour of floppy commands 'recalibrate' and 'seek' changed:
* drive is busy in the execution phase, but not the controller
* replaced the panic by setting the error status if drive is not existing
- evaluate_media(): set the media type even if device/file is not present
DMA functions defined. Most of the changes are based on the "bochs sync"
version of plex86. Here is the list of changes:
* register/unregister functions for DMA channels added. The DMA controller
can use the DMA read/write handlers of registered devices directly.
* "hardwired" code in dma.cc removed
* all DMA related code in devices.cc and iodev.h removed
* DMA related code in pc_system.* removed except HRQ handling
* macros for DMA functions defined in bochs.h
* floppy and SB16 code modified to use the changes described above
The new function register_pci_handlers() is similar to the register functions
for i/o addresses. A PCI device can register the read/write handlers for it's
private PCI configuration space. The i/o mapped registers of the host bridge
control the access to the configuration registers of each PCI device. You can
select the bus, device, function and register address with the confAddr
register. The confData register is a window to the configuration space of the
selected device.
- reset sets the values of the i/o mapped registers to 0
- changed some BX_INFO messages to BX_DEBUG
