- Enable packet logging in text format if file name is specified with the
"script" parameter.
- Don't start RX timer if vnet server returns 0.
- Added TCP header structure for future extensions.
- Fixed ne2k parameter save function.
- For backward compatibility, card #0 defaults to PCI if the ne2k is assigned
to at least one PCI slot.
- The "bootrom" parameter is only valid for the PCI card type.
old SF patches this solution is compatible with the plugin architecture. The
ne2k plugin is loaded only once and a new ne2k_main_c object creates up to 4
ne2k device objects depending on the config. The new ne2k parameter "card"
specifies the zero-based card number to configure. If not given, the default
is card #0 for compatibility. The new ne2k parameter "type" specifies the bus
it is connected to ("isa" or "pci"). Card #0 defaults to PCI, the others to
ISA. In the PCI slot configuration the ne2k device can be used multiple times
if more than one card is configured.

- compilation fix for Linux in the slirp code.
- Added INT pin init to method init_pci_conf().
- Moved readonly register handling to the common PCI write handler.
- Moved IRQ line reporting to the common PCI write handler.
- Added new structure bx_pci_bar_t that contains all parameters related to the
PCI BARs (type, size, address and r/w handlers).
- Added new methods init_bar_io() and init_bar_mem() to set up the new structure
in the pci device init code.
- Added new method pci_write_handler_common() to handle writes to the normal
BARs and the ROM BAR. Writes to other registers are forwarded to the device
specific PCI write handlers. Removed BAR and ROM BAR handling from the
specific code.
- Added new method pci_bar_change_notify() to execute specific code after BAR
update (vga, ne2k).
- Moved normal BAR handling to method after_restore_pci_state().
- Store pointer to PCI device name in bx_pci_device_c and use it for i/o setup.

- Changed include order in some files to resolve conflicts.
- Modified some data types to fix errors and warnings.
- Added workarounds for the incorrectly defined symbols FIONBIO, FIONREAD and
EWOULDBLOCK.
- Verified slirp usability with Cygwin 32-bit, MinGW/MSYS and MSVC builds of
Bochs. Other ports should not be affected.
- socket: Define the FIONBIO workaround for 64-bit Cygwin only.
- slirp: Don't mix usage of WIN32 and _WIN32 definitions.
- TODO: The slirp module still fails at UDP socket creation when Bochs is
compiled in Cygwin64.
- slirp: Increment IP packet ID outside of htons() to avoid undefined behaviour.
- socket: Workaround for a bug in the w32api code that generates a constant
with wrong value. Setting up our own FIONBIO fixes the panic.
- TODO: The slirp module still fails when Bochs is compiled in Cygwin64.
NOTE: networking still fails when compiled with Cygwin ('socket' mode fails
to set up non-blocking i/o / 'slirp' doesn't complain, but fails to connect
the internet).
bx_devmodel_c. The early version of the combined vga / svga_cirrus code
required the now obsolete implementation. Some related cleanups in the
devices code.
- Since the pci_read_handler() method is identical in most devices, move it
to the base class to reduce code duplication. Only the 'pcidev' device has
it's own implementation (NOTE: it is not maintained yet).
- Minor other fixes and cleanups in some PCI devices.
- In "non-plugin" mode loading and unloading network module is not necessary.
Now enabled loading for the plugin mode only and removed unloading function
for that case. The "pseudo plugin" entries of the dummy entry points are
necessary to make sure the self-registering network driver objects are not
optimized out.
- slirp / vnet: Since the plugin init function is not called in non-plugin
mode, revert the instance count init change.
- Fixed a makefile dependecy.
- TODO: Implement self-registering objects in the sound driver code.
- Removed "pseudo device plugin" containing common code and specific drivers.
- Moved network module base classes and module handling to the Bochs core.
Now loading network driver plugins in netmod.cc.
- Moved shared networking code used by the 'vnet' driver and 'bxhub' from
netmod.cc/.h to new files netutil.cc/.h.
- Created separate plugins for each network driver implementation.
- Modified Bochs plugin system to support new plugin type PLUGTYPE_NETWORK.
The format of the 'ethdev' string must be 'host:port' to use this feature.
Using the port number only for connecting 'bxhub' on the same machine is still
supported.
- The 'vnet' module now uses the 'script' parameter for an alternative log
file name.
- Renamed log file names in some networking modules (replaced 'ne2k' by a name
related to the module name).
- Documentation updates (networking stuff and cmosimage).
- Increase maximum number of Bochs client sessions to 6.
- Define bx_devmodel_c to 'void' for the bxhub case to simplify netmod code.
- Minor cleanups in bxhub and related vnet code.
- eth_socket.cc: Added missing winsock init.
- bxhub.cc: Added missing CDECL macro to the signal handler.
- Added some definitions for non-Windows platforms similar to the serial and
rfb code.
- bxhub.cc: Put all client data in a structure and added send_packet() function.
- bxhub.cc: Added SVN ID line.
- netmod.cc: Changed some DHCP messages to BX_DEBUG.
- eth_socket.cc: Minor cleanups.
external program 'bxhub' (simulating a two port ethernet hub). It is based on
an old SF patch and it has been updated and extended:
- Windows support (tested with MinGW/MSYS and MSVC nmake).
- Command line arguments for 'bxhub' (base port number, MAC address, TFTP).
- Added support for DHCP, TFTP, ARP and ICMP echo (ping). It uses parts of the
code for the 'vnet' module with some additions from the former "slirp backend".
- TODO: code cleanup to reduce duplication, rewrite of the networking plugins
stuff similar to the work done with the sound drivers.
"fatal". It can be used for all cases when there is no workaroud present to
avoid application crash or incorrect simulation behaviour. As a first step now
using BX_FATAL() for some data structure size and bit field errors.
- added Android case to the configure script.
- renamed file memory.h to memory-bochs.h to fix conflict with NDK.
- fixed Android issues in some files.
USB UHCI and the E1000 NIC are known to work fine on some guest systems, so
it's safe to remove this attribute.
TODO: Some other Bochs features need to be reviewed for this.
the init code. Started with the SeeReg[] array values. Some other setting could
be added later. The parser code is based on the slirp config parser.
Slirp: fixed possible segfault if the value for a parameter is missing.
- embedding combined manifest makes BOCHS.EXE usable
- list of DLL plugins now depends on the pci and debugger options
- 'make clean' now removes the generated manifest files
- renamed variable for external rules
- documentation update
sections. A better solution must be found for the basic set of device plugins
in iodev that don't require special rules.
Switched back to the original gui macro naming for linking plugins.
rules can be built now (keyboard, pit, gameport, serial, vga, svga_cirrus,
hdimage, netmod, soundmod, usb_common). The generated DLLs are usable with the
BOCHS.EXE built with the IDE, but the nmake won't work at all yet.
required an external binary and it couldn't be ported to Windows. Now the new
builtin and portable slirp support based on Qemu's implementation is almost
stable and all the 'vnet' DHCP and TFTP features have been ported to the new
slirp module.
TODO: rename all the "slirp_new" stuff to "slirp"
- removed obsolete local variables that made the hostname and bootfile options fail
- store requested hostname as a string to simplify the code
- check free space while processing the parameter list
- setting the max. DHCP message size is not supported yet (send error to log)
TODO #1: implement all features of the existing (vnet) TFTP support in Slirp.
TODO #2: make the slirp DHCP server work like the vnet one.
TODO #3: finally remove the slirp backend and rename the new one to "slirp".
- bx_param_string_c method isempty() didn't work for raw byte strings. Now using
it to check whether or not the current value matches the initial one. The
parameter handling of the network adapters now use this method to check if
the MAC address is already initialized to avoid incorrect BX_ERRORs.
- small documentation update
