is important because many people don't have the tools to rebuild them.
They will only be removed if you type "make bios-clean", which people
are unlikely to do by accident.
Instead, just build all 4 bioses for 1,2,4,8 processors all the time.
Now they should all stay in sync without any special effort.
Modified Files:
rombios.c Makefile.in
instead of winmm being a part of GUI_LINK_OPTS_WIN32 only, it is
placed in @DEVICE_LINE_OPTS@ so that it will be used for sdl, rfb, wx,
etc.
- solve compile problems when building bximage, niclist, and any other
console based program. The compile flags returned by wx-config and
sdl-config did strange things to these console programs, for example
redefining main to SDL_main. Because I wanted to use the
configure-generated CFLAGS to compile the programs, but I wanted to
avoid including GUI specific compile options, I split up the configure's
@CFLAGS@ variable into @CFLAGS@ and @GUI_CFLAGS@, and split
@CXXFLAGS@ into @CXXFLAGS@ and @GUI_CXXFLAGS@. All programs in the
Bochs binary will use both, but the console programs will just use
@CFLAGS@ or @CXXFLAGS@.
- gui/Makefile.in, I no longer use the gui specific CFLAGS variables,
SDL_CFLAGS and WX_CXXFLAGS. These values are included in CFLAGS and
CXXFLAGS now.
- modified: configure.in, configure, all Makefile.in's
His change log says:
- Makefile simplified - no longer uses tools86, dataseghack or ld86.
Also enables warnings (-w-) and checks for undefined labels (-u-).
- Macros used in place of multi-line #defines (so !!! conversion by
tools86 not needed).
- HALT() fixed [previously used ';' instead of '!!!']. Needs port 400 to
be added to iodev to be useful?
- isru removed - doesn't seem to be needed now.
- added UDIV16 (for use by bios_printf).
- bios_printf %d implemented.
- set_enable_a20 changed to use PS2 method, since bochs emulates this.
- Keyboard intercept (int 15h/42h) fixed - should set CF, not assume that
caller already has. [The DOS keyb driver for example doesn't!]
- Memory is scanned from C000 to F4000 for extension ROMs - this
picks up VGA BIOS as before, and allows others to be included.
- Comments improved for bios config table, and bit indicating RTC
present is now set.
- Int 9 (keyboard) now calls Int 15h/42h for key releases too.
[Again, this is what the DOS keyb driver does.]
in BRANCH-smp-bochs revisions.
- The general task was to make multiple CPU's which communicate
through their APICs. So instead of BX_CPU and BX_MEM, we now have
BX_CPU(x) and BX_MEM(y). For an SMP simulation you have several
processors in a shared memory space, so there might be processors
BX_CPU(0..3) but only one memory space BX_MEM(0). For cosimulation,
you could have BX_CPU(0) with BX_MEM(0), then BX_CPU(1) with
BX_MEM(1). WARNING: Cosimulation is almost certainly broken by the
SMP changes.
- to simulate multiple CPUs, you have to give each CPU time to execute
in turn. This is currently implemented using debugger guards. The
cpu loop steps one CPU for a few instructions, then steps the
next CPU for a few instructions, etc.
- there is some limited support in the debugger for two CPUs, for
example printing information from each CPU when single stepping.
