- 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
- SIM->opt_plugin_ctrl() now can be used to verify the optional plugin
configuration when using the plugin name "*". The 'load' value 1 makes
sure that all plugins with the value 1 are loaded. The 'load' value 0
unloads all plugin with the value 0 (marked for removal).
- add the default set of plugins to the 'plugin_ctrl' list and load all these
pre-defined optional plugins before parsing the configuration.
- special wx case: verify plugin configuration before showing the plugin
control dialog and before initialising hardware.
- device plugins that have been loaded, but not configured now set their
plugin control value to 0. Added the plugin unload check before signalling reset.
in the config interface. Applied settings are marked as 'done' with the value
-1 to avoid unwanted modification. NOTE: Not all Bochs modules exist when
running the start menu / dialog.
parsing to the plugin device code
- sb16: modified misc runtime menu creation to make the sb16 parameters optional
- ne2k: changed location of the init() method in file (now matches coding style
of other device plugins)
option parsing to the plugin device code
- added function bx_init_usb_options() to reduce code duplication
- added log function names for 'usb_ohci' and 'usb_uhci'
- documentation updates
the device code. Added panic message to force the user to enable the plugin
with 'plugin_ctrl'.
- moved config parameter creation and bochsrc option parsing for device
'usb_xhci' to the plugin device code
- added minimal documentation for the "log action per device" feature
- added log function name for 'usb_xhci'
