- 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.
- Moved serial and parallel config parameter list creation to the corresponding
device code.
- Unregister serial and parallel bochsrc options in PLUGIN_FINI mode.
- Moved USB config and runtime parameter list creation to bx_init_usb_options().
- textconfig.cc: Small fixes in the optional plugin control.
- 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.
- 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).
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).
- Small changes to avoid crash after failure.
- Several cleanups in the socket mode.
- Fixed reporting active mode after init is done.
- Reporting sent/received byte with BX_DEBUG.
A device can set it with setTimerParam() and read it in the timer handled using
triggeredTimerParam(). Simplified some timer handler by using these methods.
TODO: implement HD / CD seek timer
- new gui method set_mouse_mode_absxy() should switch the gui to absolute
x/y mode
- new DEV_mouse_motion() argument 'absxy' indicates whether or not the gui
sends absolute x/y values
- USB tablet code prepared to use the new feature
- TODO: implement this feature for each gui (sdl, win32, wx, x, ...)
invalid module names, save log actions to bochsrc)
- added new member 'name' to the logfunctions class for the case the prefix
is too short. Added to some devices with longer names.
Upon investigation the problem is easily fixed in bx_serial_c::rx_timer_handler():
<snip>
ssize_t bytes = read(socketid, &chbuf, 1);
#endif
if (bytes)
{
BX_INFO((" -- COM %d : read byte [%d]", port+1, chbuf));
data_ready = 1;
}
<snip>
I think this means the extra check above will give no noticeable degradation of performance, so hopefully this can be applied to SVN. It would avoid screwing up a running instance of Bochs when a remote network client unexpectedly disconnects from the COM1 tcp port.
Also some cleanup in serial.cc code.
