The rombios log output was previously handled by the unmmapped device
Fixed a "feature" in pc_system.cc with setting timers to small values
that can cause bochs to hang.
Significantly improved the performance of the new PIT.
It's probably ready to become the default now.
Added a preliminary implementation of the slowdown timer
that Bryce and I had talked about.
Also added a hack to keep the OpenBSD timer problem from filling the log.
The new PIT seems to work, but until some
enhancements are made to the way the timers
and devices.cc work, it'll be slower than
the old one.
BX_SUPPORT_APIC were used. To follow the pattern used by other
names like this, I changed them all to BX_SUPPORT_APIC.
Thanks to Tom Lindström for chasing this down!
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.
