This way the compiler can compile-out if-then-else clauses based

Bochs debugger. The Bochs debugger calls SIM->debug_get_next_command() which
does not return until a debugger command is found. The siminterface sends an
synchronous event to the wxWindows thread with a blank to be filled in with a
debugger command. wxWindows fills in the blank and sends the synchronous
event back, and the Bochs debugger interprets it as if it was typed on
the command line. For the long term I haven't decided whether to stick with
sending text strings vs. some other method.
- so far the wxWindows debugger consists of one big dialog box that shows
all the standard registers, and a working Continue, Stop, and Step button.
- modify ParamDialog so that it is more useful as a base class, by moving
some things to protected members&fields, separating out functionality
that is most likely to be replaced into virtual functions, and making it
generally more flexible. The new CpuRegistersDialog is based on
ParamDialog.
- in wxdialog.cc, continue the convention of using wxID_HELP, wxID_OK,
wxID_CANCEL, etc. for the id's of buttons, instead of wxHELP, wxOK, etc.
which are intended to be ORred together in a bit field.
- cpu/init.cc: put ifdefs around DEFPARAMs for flags in configurations
where they don't exist. Add an eflags shadow parameter that represents all
of the bits of eflags at once. There are also boolean shadow params for
each bit.

member functions are turned on, BX_CPU_C_PREFIX expands to nothing, and any
method that uses BX_CPU_C_PREFIX instead of explictly writing "BX_CPU_C::"
will not be a member function at all. This makes it impossible for code
outside the BX_CPU_C object to call the accessor because sometimes the method
is at ptr_to_cpu->get_EIP() and other times you'd have to do just get_EIP().
The only way I've found to solve this is to remove the BX_CPU_C_PREFIX
and write BX_CPU_C:: instead.
- in debug/dbg_main.cc I removed the EBP, EIP, ESP, SP shortcuts. Now
the accessors are used everywhere. Also I replaced a reference to
the short-lived get_erx() accessor with ones that work: get_EAX(), etc.
- with these changes the current cvs compiles with any combination of
debugger enabled/disabled, SMP enabled/disabled, and x86-64 enabled/disabled.
BX_READ_8BIT_REG() --> BX_READ_8BIT_REGx()
BX_WRITE_8BIT_REG() --> BX_WRITE_8BIT_REGx()
They use an extra parameter "extended". I coded this
as the macro without the "x" for cpu32 compiles. This
allows for ease of merging and code sharing.
to incrementally merge files. For a test, shift16.cc is always
compiled in the cpu/ directory regardless of 32/64-bit configure.
Ultimately, all files will migrate from cpu64 to cpu.
- add get_erx() method to bx_gen_reg_t which returns the erx field of the
structure (which is has a different name in cpu and cpu64). Providing
an accessor is one strategy for avoiding igly "#ifdef BX_SUPPORT_X86_64"
statements in the rest of the code.

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.)

a consistent way of accessing these flags that works both inside and
outside the BX_CPU class, I added inline accessor methods for each
flag: assert_FLAG(), clear_FLAG(), set_FLAG(value), and get_FLAG ()
that returns its value. I use assert to mean "set the value to one"
to avoid confusion, since there's also a set method that takes a value.
- the eflags access macros (e.g. GetEFlagsDFLogical, ClearEFlagsTF) are
now defined in terms of the inline accessors. In most cases it will
result in the same code anyway. The major advantage of the accesors
is that they can be used from inside or outside the BX_CPU object, while
the macros can only be used from inside.
- since almost all eflags were stored in val32 now, I went ahead and
removed the if_, rf, and vm fields. Now the val32 bit is the
"official" value for these flags, and they have accessors just like
everything else.
- init.cc: move the registration of registers until after they have been
initialized so that the initial value of each parameter is correct.

length. (The first guinea pig is the 2-bit IOPL field in eflags.)
Also it can have a pointer to a Bit8u, Bit16u, Bit32u and signed
equivalents and do the right thing.
- add lots more CPU fields as parameters: EBP ESI EDI ESP, all segment regs,
LDTR, GDTR, eflags, DR*, TR*, CR*. These are all visible on a
ridiculously tall dialog box that will one day become the debugger.
wxWindows thread. However, when the wxWindows thread calls
Bochs code, for example SIM->some_action() that triggers a
BX_PANIC(), then the Sim2CI event is created in the wxWindows
thread. This used to cause thread deadlock, but now it is
recognized and handled safely.
You need to use '--enable-global-pages' to configure in support.
If you have something to boot that uses them, give them a

if off, we were still reading CR3 from the TSS and reloading

with GCC) align them with the GCC special alignment attribute.
Since there was then one available field, I split the protection
attributes and native host pointers into their own fields.
Before, with 3 dwords per TLB entry, some entries (about 3/8)
were spanning two processor cache lines (assuming a 32-byte
cache line). Now, they all fit within one cache line.
Knocked about 1.4% off Win95 boot time, probably more off normal

BX_READ not 0. BX_READ was 10. While I was at it, I did
change BX_{READ,WRITE,RW} to {0,1,2} rather than {10,11,12}
in case that helps optimize code.
There may be more paging checks we should do before changing
any state, to avoid receiving a page fault in the middle.
I put some extra comments in there.
