Averything that required cpu.h include now has it explicitly and there are a lot of files not dependant by CPU at all which will compile a lot faster now ...
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
From the author (see bug #663320) :
In the code there is a check to verify that an IO bitmap
is defined (io_base > BX_CPU_THIS_PTR
tr.cache.u.tss386.limit_scaled) but there is no check if
an accessed IO port's address actually falls within the
defined limit of the TSS segment. So if I define an IO
bitmap with 100 entries, port 101 may or may not be
allowed depending on whatever bytes follow the TSS in
memory
- it works only on x86 with gcc2.95+
- uses the GCC function atribute "regparm(n)" to declare that certain
functions use the register calling convention
- performance improvement is about 6%
"bx_bool" which is always defined as Bit32u on all platforms. In Carbon
specific code, Boolean is still used because the Carbon header files
define it to unsigned char.
- this fixes bug [ 623152 ] MacOSX: Triple Exception Booting win95.
The bug was that some code in Bochs depends on Boolean to be a
32 bit value. (This should be fixed, but I don't know all the places
where it needs to be fixed yet.) Because Carbon defined Boolean as
an unsigned char, Bochs just followed along and used the unsigned char
definition to avoid compile problems. This exposed the dependency
on 32 bit Boolean on MacOS X only and led to major simulation problems,
that could only be reproduced and debugged on that platform.
- On the mailing list we debated whether to make all Booleans into "bool" or
our own type. I chose bx_bool for several reasons.
1. Unlike C++'s bool, we can guarantee that bx_bool is the same size on all
platforms, which makes it much less likely to have more platform-specific
simulation differences in the future. (I spent hours on a borrowed
MacOSX machine chasing bug 618388 before discovering that different sized
Booleans were the problem, and I don't want to repeat that.)
2. We still have at least one dependency on 32 bit Booleans which must be
fixed some time, but I don't want to risk introducing new bugs into the
simulation just before the 2.0 release.

use getB_CF() etc. getB_CF() and friends are only for a relatively
small number of cases where a true boolean/binary number (0 or 1) is required
rather than 0 or non-0 as is returned by get_CF().
of (1 & (val32>>N)), and added a getB_?F() accessor for special
cases which need a strict binary value (exactly 0 or 1). Most
code only needed a value for logical comparison. I modified the
special cases which do need a binary number for shifting and
comparison between flags, to use the special getB_?F() accessor.
Cleaned up memory.cc functions a little, now that all accesses
are within a single page.
Fixed a (not very likely encountered) bug in fetchdecode.cc (and
fetchdecode64.cc) where a 2-byte opcode starting with a prefix
starts at the last offset on a page. There were no checks
on the segment overrides for a boundary condition. I added them.
The eflags enhancements added just a tiny bit of performance.
cpu64 directories. Instead of using the macros introduced in cpu.h rev 1.37
such as GetEFlagsDFLogical and SetEFlagsDF and ClearEFlagsDF, I made inline
methods on the BX_CPU_C object that access the eflags fields. The problem
with the macros is that they cannot be used outside the BX_CPU_C object. The
macros have now been removed, and all references to eflags now use these new
accessors.
- I debated whether to put the accessors as members of the BX_CPU_C object
or members of the bx_flags_reg_t struct. I chose to make them members
of BX_CPU_C for two reasons: 1. the lazy flags are implemented as
members of BX_CPU_C, and 2. the eflags are referenced in many many places
and it is more compact without having to put eflags in front of each. (The
real problem with compactness is having to write BX_CPU_THIS_PTR in front of
everything, but that's another story.)
- Kevin pointed out a major bug in my set accessor code. What a difference a
little tilde can make! That is fixed now.
- modified: load32bitOShack.cc debug/dbg_main.cc
and in both cpu and cpu64 directories:
cpu.cc cpu.h ctrl_xfer_pro.cc debugstuff.cc exception.cc flag_ctrl.cc
flag_ctrl_pro.cc init.cc io.cc io_pro.cc proc_ctrl.cc soft_int.cc
string.cc vm8086.cc
All the EFLAGS bits used to be cached in separate fields. I left
a few of them in separate fields for now - might remove them
at some point also. When the arithmetic fields are known
(ie they're not in lazy mode), they are all cached in a
32-bit EFLAGS image, just like the x86 EFLAGS register expects.
All other eflags are store in the 32-bit register also, with
a few also mirrored in separate fields for now.
The reason I did this, was so that on x86 hosts, asm() statements
can be #ifdef'd in to do the calculation and get the native
eflags results very cheaply. Just to test that it works, I
coded ADD_EdId() and ADD_EwIw() with some conditionally compiled
asm()s for accelerated eflags processing and it works.

tries to fix it. The shortcuts to register names such as AX and DL are
#defines in cpu/cpu.h, and they are defined in terms of BX_CPU_THIS_PTR.
When BX_USE_CPU_SMF=1, this works fine. (This is what bochs used for
a long time, and nobody used the SMF=0 mode at all.) To make SMP bochs
work, I had to get SMF=0 mode working for the CPU so that there could
be an array of cpus.
When SMF=0 for the CPU, BX_CPU_THIS_PTR is defined to be "this->" which
only works within methods of BX_CPU_C. Code outside of BX_CPU_C must
reference BX_CPU(num) instead.
- to try to enforce the correct use of AL/AX/DL/etc. shortcuts, they are
now only #defined when "NEED_CPU_REG_SHORTCUTS" is #defined. This is
only done in the cpu/*.cc code.
To see the commit logs for this use either cvsweb or
cvs update -r BRANCH-io-cleanup and then 'cvs log' the various files.
In general this provides a generic interface for logging.
logfunctions:: is a class that is inherited by some classes, and also
. allocated as a standalone global called 'genlog'. All logging uses
. one of the ::info(), ::error(), ::ldebug(), ::panic() methods of this
. class through 'BX_INFO(), BX_ERROR(), BX_DEBUG(), BX_PANIC()' macros
. respectively.
.
. An example usage:
. BX_INFO(("Hello, World!\n"));
iofunctions:: is a class that is allocated once by default, and assigned
as the iofunction of each logfunctions instance. It is this class that
maintains the file descriptor and other output related code, at this
point using vfprintf(). At some future point, someone may choose to
write a gui 'console' for bochs to which messages would be redirected
simply by assigning a different iofunction class to the various logfunctions
objects.
More cleanup is coming, but this works for now. If you want to see alot
of debugging output, in main.cc, change onoff[LOGLEV_DEBUG]=0 to =1.
