been ported from QEMU and originally have this license
- TODO: The QEMU people should verify the changes and tell us if something is
missing. Bochs 2.6 will be released after everything has been confirmed to
be okay.
- use this feature for floppy read and write operations. This does not mean that
the floppy now works faster than realtime, but it reduces the number of DMA
calls from the CPU.
- removed outdated file: patch.fast-dma-cbothamy
- TODO: implement this feature in the SB16 (8 and 16 bit)
- SIM->opt_plugin_ctrl() now can be used to verify the optional plugin
configuration when using the plugin name "*". The 'load' value 1 makes
sure that all plugins with the value 1 are loaded. The 'load' value 0
unloads all plugin with the value 0 (marked for removal).
- add the default set of plugins to the 'plugin_ctrl' list and load all these
pre-defined optional plugins before parsing the configuration.
- special wx case: verify plugin configuration before showing the plugin
control dialog and before initialising hardware.
- device plugins that have been loaded, but not configured now set their
plugin control value to 0. Added the plugin unload check before signalling reset.
- TODO #1: update MSVC workspace files
- TODO #2: these 'device classes' could be moved to subdirectories, too:
- pci (when we have more than one chipset)
- display (when we have one more device and vga / cirrus cleaned up)
