Manual says that GP(0) shouldd be generated in this case ALWAYS
Fixed instructions PANIC messages to ERROR for this case
And ... do not leave PANIC messages w/o taking care that user could push CONTINUE button and program should know to continue after the PANIC code line. Mainly in rerurn instructions were several problems ...
but if you hand edit cpu/cpu.h, and change BxICacheEntries,
you can try different sizes. I'll make this more flexible
with configure. For now, use "--enable-icache" with no parameters.
- Modified fetchdecode.cc/fetchdecode64.cc just enough so that
instructions which encode a direct address now use a memory
resolution function which just sticks the immediate address
into rm_addr. With cached instructions we need this.
with accessors. Had to touch a number of files to update the
access using the new accessors.
Moved rm_addr to the CPU structure, to slim down bxInstruction_c
and to prevent future instruction caching from getting sprayed
with writes to individual rm_addr fields. There only needs to
be one. Though need to deal with instructions which have
static non-modrm addresses, but which are using rm_addr since
that will change.
bxInstruction_c is down to about 40 bytes now. Trying to
get down to 24 bytes.
use accessors. This lets me work on compressing the
size of fetch-decode structure (now called bxInstruction_c).
I've reduced it down to about 76 bytes. We should be able
to do much better soon. I needed the abstraction of the
accessors, so I have a lot of freedom to re-arrange things
without making massive future changes.
Lost a few percent of performance in these mods, but my
main focus was to get the abstraction.
tries to fix it. The shortcuts to register names such as AX and DL are
#defines in cpu/cpu.h, and they are defined in terms of BX_CPU_THIS_PTR.
When BX_USE_CPU_SMF=1, this works fine. (This is what bochs used for
a long time, and nobody used the SMF=0 mode at all.) To make SMP bochs
work, I had to get SMF=0 mode working for the CPU so that there could
be an array of cpus.
When SMF=0 for the CPU, BX_CPU_THIS_PTR is defined to be "this->" which
only works within methods of BX_CPU_C. Code outside of BX_CPU_C must
reference BX_CPU(num) instead.
- to try to enforce the correct use of AL/AX/DL/etc. shortcuts, they are
now only #defined when "NEED_CPU_REG_SHORTCUTS" is #defined. This is
only done in the cpu/*.cc code.
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.
