'all' and 'clean'), minor code changes
TODO: floppy / hard disk image creation, add to VS2008 workspace
TODO: finally remove the legacy utilities bximage and bxcommit
- ALSA driver is now default on Linux (if present)
- SDL sound driver is now default if no platform-specific driver is available
and the SDL gui is enabled
- soundlnx.cc: sendwavepacket() now exits with error if device is not opened
- soundmod.cc: exit beep loop if sendwavepacket() returns error
- ALSA stuff moved from soundlnx.* to new soundalsa.* files
- SB16 / ES1370: including specific sound driver headers not necessary
- updated dependencies
- use the CXXFLAGS and link options provided by the libvncserver-config script
- added Windows support for MinGW/MSYS (compiles fine, but crashes sometimes)
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()
- scroll window has 16 visible items and the virtual size is not limited
- CPUID parameter list now using this feature
- FIXME #1: scroll window is not resized if browse button column is present
- FIXME #2: only one scroll window per dialog is supported
- PCI slot configuration, memory and i/o BAR registration, PCI i/o space
handlers now present in devices.cc
- configure: E1000 emulation and USB support need PCI
- vga: fixes for the non-PCI case
I am copiling using Cygwin+mingw and cnfigure script by default doesn't find and GUI library and therefore I supply --with-win32.
But seems it is not enough to get GUI debugger compiled - Makefile was missing win32_enh_dbg_osdep.cc
is based on a patch originally designed for DOSBox. Currently only the Voodoo1
adapter model can be emulation. The emulation is currently slow, but we intend
to clean up and optimize the code. Running the 3D engine in a separate thread
is also planned. To compile with Voodoo support the configure option
"--enable-voodoo" must be used. Then the device can be activated with
"plugin_ctrl: voodoo=1" in bochsrc or on the command line. The device will be
assigned automatically to a PCI slot unless you do that manually. A specific bochsrc
option to select the adapter model will be added when the code has support for it.
- enh_dbg: fixed defined-but-not-used warnings
- siminterface: renamed 'wx_debug_gui' to 'bx_debug_gui' and updated comments
- TODO: remove the wx debugger and use the enhanced gui debugger instead
but in case you want a few %% of extra emulation performance - it is still possible to disable it with configure option.
most guests I saw do not use it !
for CPU emulation performance reasons, the alignment check compilation
still can be enabled using configure option --enable-alignment-check.
There is no software in the world which enable #AC exception checking, this
x86 feature is completely legacy but its emulation support costs up to 3-5%
emulation speed.
The checking for #AC exception enable still will be done, if
CPL == 3, EFLAGS.AC = 1 and CR0.AM = 1
but the alignment check is not compiled in, the Bochs will PANIC with corresponding message.
You can press 'always continue' and ignore the PANIC, the simulation will continue as if alignment checking is not enabled.
