by Ben Lunt will be tested and merged soon)
- renamed specific pciusb stuff to 'usb_uhci' (files, objects)
- minor USB-related changes
- TODO: changes in siminterface and bochsrc options
bochsrc option (e.g. biosdev, speaker, gameport)
* the "unmapped device" is now an optional plugin, the builtin default handlers
no longer cause panics
* speaker stub calls the related gui methods for beep on/off
* load all optional plugins before starting init of core plugins
* initialize plugin system before parsing bochsrc and command line
* pass previous value to bx_param_string_c handler
* load / unload plugin in bx_param_string_handler()
* handle user plugins after optional ones in plugin device init, reset and
save/restore functions
* added new siminterface method unregister_user_option()
* removed first version of config option handling for user plugins
* added new parameter subtree for user-defined options
* added new bx_list_c method remove()
* removed unused bx_devmodel_c method init_mem()
Make save/restore default feature, the configure option for save/restore removed from configure script and save/restore made available forever. All code now assume it is exists. Bochs save/restore tree previosly called "save_restore" renamed to "bochs" tree and it will be havily used everywhere, starting from save/restore and ending by various bochs debugger functions. I am going to rework debugger code to get rid of debug CPU access functions and use this "bochs" param tree instead
The connection status is now only controlled by the USB port options (TODO:
device change support at runtime)
- a connected USB mouse now has the priority when sending mouse data from the
gui to the emulated mouse device.
done by the object destructor (changes in cmos, hard drive and keyboard)
- bx_unload_plugins() now deletes the devmodel object in non-plugin mode
- CMOS device now prints the time on exit in human-readable format
unregister_irq(). This is required since there are some devices that don't
use a string constant for the handler name.
- replaced true / false by portable 0 / 1 values.
(TODO: find a way to call plugin_fini() for non-core devices if plugins are
disabled)
- set the device pointers back to stubs after unloading plugins
- added debug message "Exit" in all device plugin destructors
- added exit() method to the devmodel object for devices that need to do special
cleanups on exit. Device plugins should call this method from their plugin_fini()
function. If Bochs is compiled without plugin support, for non-core plugins
the exit() method is called directly from bx_unload_plugins().
- exit() method implemented in the keyboard device
- wx "Show Keyboard" feature now only appear when the wxdebug keyboard subtree
is not empty
- cpu cleanup must be done before the devices cleanup
- moved PCI chipset dump call to the devices exit method
* don't initialize cpu specific parameters for the wx debugger if they already
exist
* separate siminterface method init_save_restore() added
* old wx specific handling in quit_sim() removed
* new bx_list_c method clear() deletes all parameters from the list
* moved devices cleanup code from the pc_system to a new devices method exit()
* pc_system init code now sets ticksTotal to 0
* register_state() will be called after init() and registers the device members
required for save/restore
* before_save_state() can do some work before the device state is saved by the
siminterface
* after_restore_state() can do some work after the device state has been
restored (updating dependant stuff)
- BM-DMA base address set to 0xc000 at reset (shoud be done by the PCI BIOS)
- BM-DMA status register write messages changed to BX_DEBUG
- fixed an MSVC warning in the harddrive code
#1079240 by Ben Lunt. There are still some problems:
- PS/2 mouse is always present (some code to emulate a disconnected mouse needed)
- PS/2 wheel mouse doesn't work properly
- serial wheel mouse detected as a standard mouse and doesn't work at all
* up to 5 slots can be specified with the 'i440fxsupport' config option
* the pci slot number are hardwired to pci device numbers
* the 'devfunc' value is returned the calling device (useful for multi-function
devices)
* the core of the i440FX chipset is hardwired to pci device 1 + 2; usb is still
optional and appears at device 1, function 2
- ne2k: enable pci features if connected to a pci slot
- ne2k: asic data port supports 32-bit access if ne2k-pci is active
- pci2isa: improved error messages for ELCR1 and ELCR2
bochs.h already not include iodev.h which reduces compilation dependences for almost all cpu and fpu files, now cpu files will not be recompiled if iodev includes was changed
This is necessary for devices with different i/o port masks.
- BX_MAX_IO_DEVICES increased to 30
- io_len mask fixed and unnecessary io_len checks removed in
* biosdev.cc
* cmos.cc
* dma.cc
Unallowed cases are now handled in devices.cc and cause a BX_ERROR.
- io_len mask fixed and unnecessary io_len checks removed in
* devices.cc
* extfpuirq.cc
* gameport.cc
* ne2k.cc
* pit.cc
* pit_wrap.cc (i/o register function calls replaced by DEV_* macro calls)
- TODO: implement this in all other devices
You can now choose for each disk on the ata interfaces the
disk mode, between :
- flat : one file flat layout
- concat : multiple files layout
- external : developer's specific, through a C++ class
- dll : developer's specific, through a DLL
- sparse : stackable, commitable, rollbackable
- vmware3 : vmware3 disk support
- undoable : flat file with commitable redolog
- growable : growing file
- volatile : flat file with volatile redolog
- z-undoable : gziped flat file with commitable redolog
- z-volatile : gziped flat file with volatile redolog
A new "bxcommit" utility can merge commitable redologs to
flat images.
- it works only on x86 with gcc2.95+
- uses the GCC function atribute "regparm(n)" to declare that certain
functions use the register calling convention
- performance improvement is about 6%

Comment from the author:
Attached is a "patch" file detailing what you need to do
to add USB support (UHCI only for now) to your existing
Bochs (2.0.xx) source code.
I use Win32 and VC++ but the source and modifications
should be platform and compiler independant.
Please let me know if this patch some how breaks the
build process of your compilation (Bochs 2.0.0 or above
only).
I would also like any feedback on how this code works
(or doesn't work) on your platform and within your
images. If you explain in as much detail as you can on
how it did or did not work, I will try to add to the source
to help it work on all platforms and images.
palette - it's an index to the attribute controller palette index.
The new function get_actl_palette_idx() now returns the real DAC index.
The guis sdl, wx and x11 are using the new function. TODO: Fix this bug in
all other guis.
- moved ne2k presence check to devices.cc
- added special make rules for the ne2k and the lowlevel network support
- added macro for the debug feature of the ne2k
The cmos function get_timeval is only used by the pc_system
to print the last system time on exit. We should remove the
STUBFUNC() macro and simply return 0.
"bx_bool" which is always defined as Bit32u on all platforms. In Carbon
specific code, Boolean is still used because the Carbon header files
define it to unsigned char.
- this fixes bug [ 623152 ] MacOSX: Triple Exception Booting win95.
The bug was that some code in Bochs depends on Boolean to be a
32 bit value. (This should be fixed, but I don't know all the places
where it needs to be fixed yet.) Because Carbon defined Boolean as
an unsigned char, Bochs just followed along and used the unsigned char
definition to avoid compile problems. This exposed the dependency
on 32 bit Boolean on MacOS X only and led to major simulation problems,
that could only be reproduced and debugged on that platform.
- On the mailing list we debated whether to make all Booleans into "bool" or
our own type. I chose bx_bool for several reasons.
1. Unlike C++'s bool, we can guarantee that bx_bool is the same size on all
platforms, which makes it much less likely to have more platform-specific
simulation differences in the future. (I spent hours on a borrowed
MacOSX machine chasing bug 618388 before discovering that different sized
Booleans were the problem, and I don't want to repeat that.)
2. We still have at least one dependency on 32 bit Booleans which must be
fixed some time, but I don't want to risk introducing new bugs into the
simulation just before the 2.0 release.

to request bulk IO operations to IO devices which are bulk IO aware.
Currently, I modified only harddrv.cc to be aware. I added some
fields to the bx_devices_c class for the IO instructions to
place requests and receive responses from the IO device emulation.
Devices except the hard drive, don't monitor these fields so they
respond as normal. The hard drive now monitors these fields for
bulk requests, and if enabled, it memcpy()'s data straight from
the disk buffer to memory. This eliminates numerous inp/outp calling
sequences per disk sector.
I used the fields in bx_devices_c so that I would not have to
disrupt most IO device modules. Enhancements can be made to
other devices if they use high-bandwidth IO via in/out instructions.
Some devices already had one. Some I had to add an empty one.
I did a little cleaning of init() methods to make them more uniform
but generally I left them alone.
- I also put these exact diffs into a patch "patch.iodev-add-reset"
in case I want to revert these changes for some reason, for example
if they break an old patch. It should be deleted after a while.
DMA functions defined. Most of the changes are based on the "bochs sync"
version of plex86. Here is the list of changes:
* register/unregister functions for DMA channels added. The DMA controller
can use the DMA read/write handlers of registered devices directly.
* "hardwired" code in dma.cc removed
* all DMA related code in devices.cc and iodev.h removed
* DMA related code in pc_system.* removed except HRQ handling
* macros for DMA functions defined in bochs.h
* floppy and SB16 code modified to use the changes described above
. ports 0x0400 0x0401 and 0xfff0 : rombios
. ports 0x0500 0x0501 and 0x0502 : vgabios
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.
