'-nocp' option
- reverted latest changes in function bx_do_text_config_interface()
- removed unnecessary forward declaration of function bx_print_header()
- replace the loglevel ACT_ASK by ACT_FATAL only when compiled without control
panel
- detection of the config file fixed - fopen returns NULL if the function fails
to describe the format of the log prefix. This option can be any string
with special tokens being replaced at run time :
# %t : 11 decimal digits timer tick
# %i : 8 hexadecimal digits of cpu0 current eip
# %e : 1 character event type ('i'nfo, 'd'ebug, 'p'anic, 'e'rror)
# %d : 5 characters string of the device, between brackets
the default is "%t%i%d", so the logprefix is the same as before.
New tokens can be easily added or changed if needed.

floppy_bootsig_check: disabled=[0|1]. It is not disabled by default.
Sorry for any inconvenience it could cause
- changed the default (if cmos reg is 0) behavior for the floppy boot signature
check, so the new bios is compatible with older bochs binaries (useful if we
want to use the new bios when we release 1.4.1) :
1 : disabled
0 : enabled
- added info at launch time about the boot device and the floppy boot signature
check
- added a "LBA capable" flag in the ata controller
if you turn the delay down to 0, but it doesn't actually paste any
faster so there's no point. I will try to be satisfied with only
1000 chars per second. :)
* don't change the device state to "not present" at runtime if the path is
changed to "none" - simply eject the media if inserted
* don't change the device state to "present" at runtime if the previous state
is "not present"
* eject and re-insert the media if the current media state is "inserted"
* changing the media state in the config interface works now
* TODO: don't do anything if the path is unchanged
- bx_write_cdrom_options(): writing media state fixed
Here are the patches (without the serial name fix). Let me know if you want
me to change that. Oh, FYI, my changes also open up the com1 terminal in raw
mode, which makes the emulation much more accurate. You'll also notice that
I added infrastructure for com2->4 in the option parsing. I didn't add it to
the serial code, as I think a bunch of things need to be untangled before
that can work.
interface menus. Parallel port #1 is implemented, and I left stubs for
parallel port #2 in case we want to ever add it. If the parallel port
is enabled, the init method of parallel.cc does an fopen() on the output
file. If disabled, or if the fopen fails, the file handler remains
NULL and no characters are printed. There is no attempt to enable/disable
the operation of the parallel port, only the output to a file.
removed! I used this trick sometimes to check that a function returned
what I expected, like assert (func () == 0), but this caused the
func() to never get called. Oops.
- rework the order of initialization with and without the control panel.
The thing that was bothering me most was the command line options were
being processed after the user had set everything in the control panel.
This is clearly not what's expected--the command line options should
affect the startup defaults of the control panel, but whatever the user
chooses in the cpanel menus is the final choice.
- if the control panel (config interface) is not wanted, the user can
put "-nocp" or "-nocontrolpanel" as the FIRST argument on the command
line. Also, the "-psn" option which is automatically passed in by
MacOS X when you doubleclick the application causes the control panel
to be disabled. In this case, the order of operations is:
1. read bochsrc
2. parse command line options.
- if the control panel is enabled (default), the command line options are
parsed to provide the startup defaults for the control panel, but the
control panel settings are the final answer. So the order is:
1. parse command line options
2. run control panel (if user chooses, he can read bochsrc from menus)
- I haven't tested command line options with the debugger yet.
media status to 0 then 1 (equivalent to removing then inserting a disk).
Then it calls the UI function bx_gui.update_floppy_status_buttons()
if the interface has been initialized already.
cylinders, heads, and spt of each hard disk to be 1 instead of 0. This
caused the BIOS to report the existence of the hard disks, even when
they were never configured. The most obvious symptom of this problem
was "read multiple issued to non-disk" when a cdrom was enabled, which
happened because the BIOS tried to send hard disk commands to the CDROM.
which notifies them that the mouse_enabled bit has changed. Now that
mouse_enabled can be initialized or modified by parameter events in
addition to GUI events, the guis must be prepared for it. I have pasted
empty method definitions into mouse_enabled_changed_specific for all
guis except for X11, which I did the right way. The implementation
of this function must use the argument "val" rather than reading the
parameter.
