- pit: and time0: options are still supported but deprecated
- warn when parsing deprecated directives
- fix wrong number of ata_device_translation_names
- still to do:
- setting time0 to utc is not yet supported
- the man page, user guide and .bochsrc still need to be updated
with the new options
Syntax error fixes:
[x] fixed error with array bounds in virt_timer.cc
[x] fixed error with returning value from void functions
[x] fixed const class member initialization (according C++ standard)
[x] for-loop local variable declaration moved out of loop
(for VC 6.0 compliance)
Removed already committed patch from Dirk Thierbach
Replaced the patch from Vitaly Vorobyov by set of splitted patches.
Now any of his patches could be committed separatelly from others !
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
The colors 0..7 appear in high intensity and the colors 8..15 blink using
low / high intensity. Blinking is not present in Bochs yet. For now, the 3rd
bit of the attribute will be inverted.
- attribute controller mode control register: only a change of the internal
palette size bit should force a redraw
- skip screen update if video is disabled
plane enable and color select
- a screen update is necessary after updating the charmap
- lots of missing parentheses added (found after disabling VGA_TRACE_FEATURE)
- BX_DEBUG and BX_INFO messages improved
- update function: the 'for' loop now initializes and increments the variables
xti and yti
- VBE: banked writes are now ignored in LFB mode, LFB writes are ignored in
banked mode (based on SF patch #742782)
- calculation of the VBE virtual height for >8bpp fixed
- visible screen size must be recalculated after changing the virtual width
- modify standard VGA register when enabling a VBE mode (some test applications
expect this behaviour)
- BX_INFO messages in the VBE code fixed
* configure.in: readline check is only necessary if the debugger is enabled
(patch from Jeroen Janssen)
* iodev/Makefile.in: dependencies updated after adding gameport device
- don't clear the VBE memory if the new flag VBE_DISPI_NOCLEARMEM is set
- vbe_bpp_multiplier for the 4bpp mode set to 1 (usually unused, but this value is save)
(using 72 Hz vertical frequency). The vertial retrace phase is often used for
vga register or memory manipulations to reduce screen flickering.
- update(): check variable vga_mem_updated before everything else
(without localized variables)
- start address support for CGA modes added
- start address support for mode 13h completed
- clearing the text snapshot is not necessary after a start address change
(set needs_update to 1 in graphics mode only)
* changed all %ll format descriptions to FMT_LL macro so that
Microsoft Visual C works correctly (it uses %I64)
* missing type conversions added
* cdrom.cc: variable types for win32 fixed
* removed some unused variables in eth_win32.cc and harddrv.cc
* added missing includes in make_cmos_image.c and niclist.c
* support for different resource compilers added (rc / windres)
* bochs must be linked with advapi.lib for registry access
* optimization flag changed to /Ox
* symbols BX_HAVE_MKSTEMP, BX_HAVE_SYS_MMAN_H and HAVE_ETHERTAP must be set to 0
* BX_HAVE_REALTIME_USEC definition fixed for MSVC
* vmware3.h: definition of COW_Header fixed for MSVC
- maximum number of text lines changed to 100 (CGA "graphics" mode 160x100)
- size of text snapshot buffer changed to 32k (size of MDA/CGA text memory)
- removed obsolete macro CGA_TEXT_ADDR()
It's not clear what the correct behavior is in that case, (we
clearly don't currently handle it correctly) so
simply avoiding it is the easiest thing to do. As such, this
option is ON by default.
and implemented in SDL
* sequencer controller register 0x01 bit 0 controls the width of the characters.
This value is used to calculate the screen width.
* attribute controller register 0x10 bit 2 controls the appearance of graphics
characters (ASCII 0xC0 - 0cDF). A change of this value forces a charmap update
to rebuild the font bitmaps.
* the SDL display library uses the new feature described above
* the other display libraries recalculate the screen width, since they are using
a fixed font width of 8 for now.
- VGA: attribute controller register 0x10 bit 2 (enable_line_graphics) does not
switch the palatte in CGA mode
ATTENTION: the Elpin VGA BIOS uses a delay of 280 vertical retraces after
displaying the copyright text
- changes to the horizontal or vertical pel panning registers force a redraw of
the screen
- screen update problems in text mode fixed
- sort order of the CRT register write cases changed
- fixed calculation of the byte offset for standard VGA modes if line compare
is active
- force a resize of the screen after a change of the display mode (text/graphics)
- mem_write(): skip the rotation of the cpu byte if 'data_rotate' is 0
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.
If set, the screen size will be horizontally doubled in CGA and standard
VGA modes.
- doublescan feature for CGA mode 320x200x4 added
- removed trailing spaces in VBE update code
the address offset between two lines on the screen in all VGA modes.
It depends on the CRTC offset register value and the address mode (byte, word,
dword)
- moved screen update code to the end of the write handler. If a register change
should force a redraw of the screen, the variable 'needs_update' must be set
to 1.
- changes to the attribute controller palette index register now force a redraw
of the screen
- modeX: calculation of the tile numbers fixed
* check memory mapping before everything else
* read mode 1 optimized using a part of patch.vga-mode2-speed-dohzono
- function mem_write(): check memory mapping before everything else
- writes to the CRT registers are handled only if the new value differs
- a CRT start address change forces a redraw of the screen
with 100 rows and a char height of 4
- raster operations AND, OR and XOR in write mode 2 implemented (part of patch #707931)
- use the vga_tile_updated array in modeX like other modes do
- small optimizations in the graphics update code
I've got a game that uses OPL2 functions. It's still not
working yet, but this patch brings it closer. Using Jeffrey S.
Lee's "Programming the AdLib/Sound Blaster FM Music Chips (Ver
2.0)"[1] as a reference, I found an inversion of the OPL timer
masks in the sb16 code. Without this patch, the emulator uses
the wrong bits for masking, and completely botches the flags
register (note the bitwise AND vs OR).
double width)
- cleanup in modeX emulation similar to mode 13h
- consider start address in function mem_write for VGA modes
- register 0x03c8 is readable, too
- clear tile array when switching to graphics mode, clear text snapshot when
switching to text mode, do the same when changing the palette or disable video
- simplified the function determine_screen_dimensions()
- fixed the code for the CGA mode 640x200x2 in update() and mem_write()
- 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.
- new symbol BX_USE_PCIVGA_SMF for the experimental PCI VGA device
- pcivga.cc: removed unnecessary include statement
- pcivga.cc: fixed two warnings
- pcivga.h: removed unnecessary symbol BX_IODEV_PCIVGA_H
- implementation of the UIP bit using a new timer handler. The one_second_timer()
function only sets the UIP bit and starts the UIP timer. The uip_timer()
function handles the date / time update, the alarm check and finally clears
the UIP bit.
- writing to control register A doesn't change the UIP bit
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.
things up for MacOSX, and I don't want to risk that right now just before
the release. I changed it to #if BX_WITH_MACOS to be safe.
(Bochs makefiles currently define -Dmacintosh on OSX. Maybe they
shouldn't but I'm not going to change it right now.)
be zero. I changed it to #ifdef macintosh.
- removed extern "C" {} that only encompassed two #defines. If there
were any includes in there it would be important, but there weren't.
* missing VBE support added, use xmax / ymax variables instead of the
values 640 / 480
* use the constant Y_TILESIZE when checking the y position
* variable vga_mem_updated was always set twice
This version is a bit of a hack that needs to be cleaned up before release.
There is also a glaring bug that lets things go WAY too fast when
we're trying to catch up to real time. This is my highest priority
right now.
register values to a new timeval after date/time change. There is only a
BX_ERROR for now.
- added separate cases for the alarm time registers and a BX_DEBUG message that
reports the new alarm time.
unsigned 64-bit integer and 64-bit double precision floating point. It
knows how to convert Bit64s to double, but it refuses to convert Bit64u
to double. The macros: F2I converts from floating point to integer, and
I2F converts the other way, using Bit64s as a transition step.
F2I: double -> Bit64s -> Bit64u
I2F: Bit64u -> Bit64s -> double
. read port 0x70 (cmos) : return index
. atapi function 46 and 4a : return error
- put back the log prefix for cmos that disappeared when we did the plugins
to make Bochs compile on DJGPP.
- put references to SIGSTOP and SIGTSTP in #ifdefs
- add definition of BX_CD_FRAMESIZE and CD_FRAMESIZE
- look for curses functions in -ldcurses
Modified Files:
gui/term.cc iodev/cdrom.cc configure.in configure
- 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
For a whole lot of configure options, I put #if...#endif around code that
is specific to the option, even in files which are normally only compiled
when the option is on. This allows me to create a MS Visual C++ 6.0
workspace that supports many of these options. The workspace will basically
compile every file all the time, but the code for disabled options will
be commented out by the #if...#endif.
This may one day lead to simplification of the Makefiles and configure
scripts, but for the moment I'm leaving Makefiles and configure scripts
alone.

For years we have been writing beyond the end of this array in the VGA code:
bx_bool vga_tile_updated[BX_NUM_X_TILES][BX_NUM_Y_TILES];
and doing who-know-how-much damage to other memory structures in the process.
I changed every reference to vga_tile_updated[][] into calls to two macros
GET_TILE_UPDATED and SET_TILE_UPDATED, and defined the macros to check
the bounds of the array before referencing it. At first I used an
assert, then a panic, then an error, and now I'm not printing any message
at all because there were thousands and thousands of messages during
a boot of win95 when it's updating the win95 logo screen.
- I couldn't resist cleaning up a few confusing-looking things like
"if (condition) { // }". There are no functional changes except for
bounds checking on the vga_tile_updated array.
- plugins are installed into ${plugdir} which is defined to be
${libdir}/bochs-${VERSION}/plugins.

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.
