A device can set it with setTimerParam() and read it in the timer handled using
triggeredTimerParam(). Simplified some timer handler by using these methods.

- increase the device prefix size to 6
- TODO: change some more device prefixes
The device exists for some years now, but it was never functional and it is not
yet mentioned in the docs. After studying Linux kernel sources and a lot of
tests it is now usable. A configure option doesn't exist, so it must be enabled
in config.h. At runtime it is only loaded if the mouse type is set to 'bus'.

In convert/resize mode a backup can be created if the new file name
is not specified or the same as the source file name. In commit mode
both base image and redolog file are affected by the backup switch.
Added Linux specific file copy code using '/bin/cp'.
- added support to use 'concat' and 'dll' mode images as convert source.
A prefix ("concat:" or "dll:") must be added to the path since autodetection

the display adapter code. When ready, the common gui code should handle it
completely. The snapshot handler should set a flag 'snapshot_mode' and then it
should force a display update. The graphics update code should be redirected to
some code that 'draws' to a snapshot buffer. These first steps are done:
- store some guest display settings in the gui code (text / graphics switch,
x / y resolution and bpp)
- split 8 bpp palette update code in a common and a specific part and store the
palette values in the gui code
These hdimage modes are now supported: flat, sparse, growing, vmware3, vmware4
und vpc. The image mode is auto-detected, so no change of configuration syntax
is necessary (TODO: documentation update). Example:
ata0-master: type=disk, mode=volatile, path=vmware4-test.img

them usable for autodetection.
- TODO #2: add support for other types of r/o disks in undoable/volatile mode.

is based on a patch originally designed for DOSBox. Currently only the Voodoo1
adapter model can be emulation. The emulation is currently slow, but we intend
to clean up and optimize the code. Running the 3D engine in a separate thread
is also planned. To compile with Voodoo support the configure option
"--enable-voodoo" must be used. Then the device can be activated with
"plugin_ctrl: voodoo=1" in bochsrc or on the command line. The device will be
assigned automatically to a PCI slot unless you do that manually. A specific bochsrc
option to select the adapter model will be added when the code has support for it.

- store r/o disk timestamp in FAT format in reserved field of redolog header
- use the VVFAT function fat_datetime() to convert the mtime value
- update redolog header if timestamp is undefined (first usage)
- Bochs now panics if the r/o disk has been modified after the first usage with
the undoable disk image mode to avoid journal file corruption.
- undoable: fixed r/o disk size check
- 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.
- new gui method set_mouse_mode_absxy() should switch the gui to absolute
x/y mode

- pci: added option 'dump=full' for the debugger command 'info device' to show
the whole PCI config space
- TODO: some other devices could have support for additional options in
debug_dump()
- removed FILE parameter from print_info() (unused - since dbg_printf() doesn't
need it)
- converted tabs to spaces
- TODO: implement 'info device' with optional arguments to get rid of the
print_info() method
of the device specified in 'string'. Added register mechanism and chained
list to store the device name and pointer. Replace hardcoded debug info
implementations for pic, pci and vga by the new one.
- TODO #1: improve existing debug_dump() output and add more devices
- TODO #2: add support for additional arguments and replace the NE2k print_info()
- TODO:
add debug info for more devices without adding them to bx_devices_c and
without a macro in plugin. A register mechanism in the debugger code would
be nice. Currently it is only possible to show the devices state by
accessing the save/restore tree. The debug_dump() output should show
the operation mode and the most important registers.
- for sequencer reg #1 a screen update is required after changing bit #0, #3 and #5
- added new method skip_update() that checks the conditions to skip the screen update
and it is called after resizing the display
- clear screen request from the sequencer is now handled by the update() code
in the new method skip_update() instead of clearing display directly
- siminterface: don't create plugin parameter if it already exists
- wx: make sure all plugins are loaded when creating plugin control dialog
- USB HC's: fixed removal of parameters when unloading plugin
- bx_list_c: don't accept duplicate param names in list (except dependent lists
and special menus)
- added BX_PANIC for malloc() failure
- harddrv: fixed wrong variable found with bx_list_c changes
- added new class bx_vgacore_c containing the core of the standard VGA
emulation. This is now the base class for both vga and cirrus.
- created 2 separate plugins 'vga' (for standard VGA and VBE) and 'svga_cirrus'
(Cirrus emulation). The vga extension option is used to select which plugin
should be loaded.
- TODO: move the pcivga code to the VGA/VBE code, add subdirectory for display
adapters, severak improvements and cleanups
- changed argument for the text mode info structure to a pointer
- added attribute controller palette to bx_vga_tminfo_t and removed the
previous implementation
- carbon.cc: attempt to fix the text mode colors (untested)

nearly all cases and plugins that depend on others. These plugins cannot be
managed with 'plugin_ctrl' (e.g. keyboard, harddrv, pci_ide). Store the plugin
type in the divice structure for compatiblity with the "no-plugin" compilation.
Call the device methods init(), reset() and after_restore_state() for each type
separately in the order: stanard, optional, user. This also affects the status
bar LED feature: now the keyboard and harddrv LEDs are always visible, but
those of optional plugins may be invisible if there is no space left.

existing "iolight timer" code in the hard drive code. If an LED is registered
with the "auto-off" flag, the device only needs to turn on the LED to indicate
data transfer. The LED timer in the gui code turns it off after 0.5 seconds if
it is not actived by another transfer. Added this feature to all network
devices.
- TODO #1: implement this feature in the USB host controllers
- TODO #2: the unused timer in the hard drive code could be used for the
emulation of seek functions
directly while parsing the bochsrc or command line. If plugin support is enabled,
the option could load all optional plugins, not only the ones supported before.
NOTE #1: The old option had all plugins enabled by default and gave the user
a chance to diable them. Now the plugins are only loaded if they
appear in the config line and they are set to "1".
NOTE #2: Loading a plugin that is controlled by a bochsrc option is possible,
but it currently leads to a panic, since the load command is still
present in devices.cc.
NOTE #3: The plugin init code creates the device object and registers the
optional plugin device. As an option, it can create config parameters
and register an option parser. The device init, register state and
reset is still handled in devices.cc, but in the order the devices
have been loaded with the plugin control.
NOTE #4: If plugin support is disabled, the plugin control only accepts the
devices listed in plugin.cc.
- plugin init of core plugins now fails if they are not loaded with the expected
type. For core plugins the load order is important and they cannot be handled
with the chained devices list (used for optional and user plugins).
- some additions for calling config.cc functions from a plugin device
turned off. Removed workaround code from devices.cc.
- removed 'pci_ide' plugin from the optional plugin control, since it depends
on the presence of 'pci' and 'harddrv'.
- define types for plugin init/fini functions
- use 'pci_rom_size - 1' as the mask for the offset address
- ne2k: memory handlers must be disabled if compiled without PCI support
- svga_cirrus: check for the PCI ROM size to make VBE work correctly
- added BX_INFO to the mem write handlers
For now it returns a flag that indicated that the device can receive data
from the eth module and flags for the device speed. TODO: Use this callback

data conversion, timers of networking modules 'vnet' and 'slirp' should use
the device speed instead of fixed 10 MBit
memcpy(). The reason for the failure is unknown. Using writePhysicalPage()
is safe, but slower and it only works on little endian hosts. On big endian
hosts the data block would be copied in reverse order. We have to check
whether or not this behaviour is expected for blocks > 8 bytes.

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.

* Slirp doesn't compile on 64-bit Linux with GCC 4.5
* WIN32 is not supported yet
an own header file for the basic sound output class. When ready we should
have a separate 'soundmod' plugin that could be used by other soundcard
implementations.
connected device. For now this feature is only used by the 'disk' device to
specify an alternative redolog filename of some image modes.
- added new methods set_option() and timer() to the base class usb_device_c.
The timer() method is periodicly called from the HC's frame timer code.
- moved runtime device change stuff from the parameter handler to the end of
timer() methods of all hubs. This makes sure that all parameters for the
device have been set at connect time. TODO: this technique could also be used
for the floppy and cdrom media change.
down and the vvfat image has been modied, the user is asked if the vvfat
directory should also be modified. Currently not handled: remove non-empty
directories, system-reserved clusters and file attributes.
- some small related changes
successful reads and writes (required for vvfat write support)
- added multiple sector read / write support to the undoable and volatile disk
image mode (required for USB MSD)
of the bootsector and the "FS info sector" (required for FAT32)
- implemented a more accurate way to calculate the number of clusters and the
corresponding FAT size
- some other small fixes
- check the root entries limit of FAT16
- some work on the FAT32 support (not yet complete)
- report volume creation date and time
- some other small fixes
- several fixes related to configurable geometry (some more tests required)
- skip MBR and boot sector image files when reading directory (still unused)
- support overriding cylinder value with 0 in the command line
- don't return failure value when reading unused sectors
- increment buffer pointer when reading more than one sector
* ported the read part of the Qemu vvfat block driver
* added win32 specific directory functions (required for MSVC)
* TODO: write support, FAT32 support, read MBR and boot sector from file
- HDIMAGE_HAS_GEOMETRY flag added to vmware3 & vmware4 modes (these modes use
the CHS values from image file)
- harddrv: renamed pointer to hdimage object
* added new "pseudo device" for the USB device control (init, send message)
* moved register_state() call from the hubs to the common device init code
- fixed unresolved symbols in usb_msd code
- siminterface: added helper method hdimage_get_mode()
- moved hdimage related stuff from harddrv.cc to the hdimage code
- changed hdimage related names
code and the generic USB stuff. Up to now, in plugin mode each host controller
staticly links all this stuff with the plugin library. So it existed twice and
e.g. it wasn't possible to create a unique serial number for disks/cdroms
connected to different HCs. Some other sanity checks could be added now, too.
- Added a register mechanism for the USB device init function in the main
devices code.
- TODO: Some other device plugins could be fixed the same way: network devices
(sharing ethernet modules), harddrive & usb_msd (sharing hdimage and
cdrom)
- new USB device class method get_info() for improved device connect BX_INFOs
- USB printer: output file creation failure now causes BX_ERROR and disconnect
instead of BX_PANIC (similar to usb_msd)
- removed obsolete include statements
the SF patch #1539417, but rewritten from scratch (patch too old). Differences
to the original version:
* internal parameter name "readonly"
* update parameter if floppy image is readonly
* wxWidgets support
* documentation updates
* no specific toolbar buttons
to the device and process TD repeatedly until CC is modified (fixes MSD
connected to OHCI with Linux guest)
- fixed CBP calculation and split transfer to memory when crossing the 4k
boundary (makes 8k transfers work according to the specs: fixes Win98 guest crash)
- don't enable the status bar i/o indicator if it's ID is not valid (no space
left in status bar)
- minor debug message fixes
- removed full device name from debug messages, since the device is specified
by it's prefix. Full name is only required in a BX_INFO() in init().
- removed BX_PANIC messages that will never happen
belongs to. This is important when we want to implement other network devices
or add support for multiple devices of the same type.
- improved some info messages / removed references to ne2k
- code cleanup: removed unnecessary spaces, changed tabs to spaces
