- Added check in config.h whether or not Bochs is configured and compiled for
the same target platform (WIN32 / WIN64).
- Fixed some warnings that occur in the MSVC WIN64 case.
- Don't include paramtree.h in siminterface.h to get rid of duplicates
in a lot of Makefile dependency lines.
- Regenerated Makefile dependencies in iodev and affected subdirectories.
- FIXME #1: including debug.h causes duplicate entries of config.h and osdep.h.
- FIXME #2: cpudb.h appears in most of the iodev* dependencies, but only needed
by config.cc and the cpu class.
- Changed variable type of the plugin_t "type" member from enum to Bit16u.
- Added support for returning device flags with the new mode PLUGIN_FLAGS in
the plugin entry functions. It is currently only used for devices that can
be connected to a PCI slot.
- Code cleanup in core device plugins: checking type no longer necessary.
- The "non-plugin" mode now also uses the "loadtype" member of plugin_t.
TODO: Change PCI slot options to bx_param_enum_c and build the choices list
using the new capabilities of the plugin API.
- Fixed loading of all plugins with one type using wildcard.
- Reduced maximum length of line when listing available modules for hdimage,
network and sound.
- Added special mode to all plugin entry functions that returns the plugin type.
- The plugins search function now temporarily loads all available plugins and
reads the plugin type using the new mode PLUGIN_PROBE.
- Added "loadtype" to the plugin structure to store the type used for plugin
loading (currently only the voodoo plugin provides two types).
module code. Sound driver names are now stored as string constants instead
of hardcoded values. Available modules are detected at Bochs startup and stored
in a string array before initializing options. In the plugins case available
modules are read from the plugins list. If plugins are off, the registry of
bx_sound_lowlevel_c is used. Related changes similar to the hdimage and
network modifications.
handling. Networking module names are now stored as string constants instead of
hardcoded values. Available modules are detected at Bochs startup and stored in
a string array before initializing options. In the plugins case available
modules are read from the plugins list. If plugins are off, the eth_locator_c
registry is used. Related changes in all parts of Bochs that need the
networking stuff.
TODO #1: Sound drivers could be handled in a similar way.
- bx_shadow_bool_c: removed unused bitnum feature and changed data type.
- Changed return type of memory handlers to bool.
- Modified virtual timer, PIC and PIT code.
plugin_entry(). The additional boolean argument "init" is used to select the
requested action. The entry points still have unique names for compatibility
with the "non-plugin" compilation. Added macros for setting up these names
(e.g. PLUGIN_ENTRY_FOR_MODULE for device plugins).
- Added support for loading all plugins of one type using wildcard "*".
- Unloading no longer removes the plugin object. Now the member "loaded" is
set to 0 and the type of a device plugin is reset.
- Added plugin_cleanup() function to remove plugin objects on Bochs exit.
- Some other related cleanups in the plugins code.
- Added options "net" for the IP address space and "ftp" for the FTP server.
- Added some sanity checks for the IP address configuration.
- Added sample config file.
- Added new config file options "host", "dns" and "dhcpstart" (similar to slirp).
- modified bx_vnet_pktmover_c class to be compatible with other modules.
- On TFTP RRQ check file presence directly (fixes iPXE boot).
- Moved server ID and lease time options to the top of the DHCP reply.
- Increase TFTP buffer size as expected by iPXE.
- TODO: The vnet module still has boot file name hardcoded.
The 'vnet' networking module now uses 192.168.10.3 and bxhub is setting up the
slirp compatible IP 10.0.2.4 for additional services. Added host name "vnet-ftp"
in the DNS code to translate it to the new IP address.
- FTP: handle the hidden flag on Windows the same way as on other platforms.
- TCP/IP: fixed some gcc 9 warnings (checked with Cygwin gcc 9.3).
- DHCP: changed the way to set up the default client IPv4 address.
