invalid module names, save log actions to bochsrc)
- added new member 'name' to the logfunctions class for the case the prefix
is too short. Added to some devices with longer names.
directly while parsing the bochsrc or command line. If plugin support is enabled,
the option could load all optional plugins, not only the ones supported before.
NOTE #1: The old option had all plugins enabled by default and gave the user
a chance to diable them. Now the plugins are only loaded if they
appear in the config line and they are set to "1".
NOTE #2: Loading a plugin that is controlled by a bochsrc option is possible,
but it currently leads to a panic, since the load command is still
present in devices.cc.
NOTE #3: The plugin init code creates the device object and registers the
optional plugin device. As an option, it can create config parameters
and register an option parser. The device init, register state and
reset is still handled in devices.cc, but in the order the devices
have been loaded with the plugin control.
NOTE #4: If plugin support is disabled, the plugin control only accepts the
devices listed in plugin.cc.
- plugin init of core plugins now fails if they are not loaded with the expected
type. For core plugins the load order is important and they cannot be handled
with the chained devices list (used for optional and user plugins).
- some additions for calling config.cc functions from a plugin device
The ACPI support is always automatically compiled in if PCI is compiled in.
The ACPI still could be disabled using .bochsrc 'plugin_ctrl' option.
Updated CHANGES and docs as well.
Make save/restore default feature, the configure option for save/restore removed from configure script and save/restore made available forever. All code now assume it is exists. Bochs save/restore tree previosly called "save_restore" renamed to "bochs" tree and it will be havily used everywhere, starting from save/restore and ending by various bochs debugger functions. I am going to rework debugger code to get rid of debug CPU access functions and use this "bochs" param tree instead
(TODO: find a way to call plugin_fini() for non-core devices if plugins are
disabled)
- set the device pointers back to stubs after unloading plugins
- added debug message "Exit" in all device plugin destructors
* up to 5 slots can be specified with the 'i440fxsupport' config option
* the pci slot number are hardwired to pci device numbers
* the 'devfunc' value is returned the calling device (useful for multi-function
devices)
* the core of the i440FX chipset is hardwired to pci device 1 + 2; usb is still
optional and appears at device 1, function 2
- ne2k: enable pci features if connected to a pci slot
- ne2k: asic data port supports 32-bit access if ne2k-pci is active
- pci2isa: improved error messages for ELCR1 and ELCR2
bochs.h already not include iodev.h which reduces compilation dependences for almost all cpu and fpu files, now cpu files will not be recompiled if iodev includes was changed
