--with-amigaos is allowed and sets up the makefiles correctly. It
defines a symbol called BX_WITH_AMIGAOS, which should be used in
#if..#endif constructs that are specific to amigaos.
- if --enable-cdrom is used with --with-amigaos, the cdrom_amigaos.o
object file will be added to CDROM_OBJS in the iodev makefile.
been converted into parameters temporarily have the letter "O" appended
to their name. I don't want to keep it this way, but it has helped
in the conversion process because the compiler refuses to compile the
old uses of the name. Before I started using the "O" trick, there were
many bugs like this: if (bx_options.diskc.present) {...}
This was legal with the new parameters, but it was testing whether the
parameter structure had been created, instead of testing the value of
the present parameter. Renaming present to Opresent turns this into
a compile error, which points out the incorrect use of the param.
- the "--disable-control-panel" no longer works, I'm afraid. I can no
longer support this and continue progress.
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!
BX_CPU_C bx_cpu;
BX_MEM_C bx_mem;
and when more than one processor, use
BX_CPU_C *bx_cpu_array[BX_SMP_PROCESSORS];
BX_MEM_C *bx_mem_array[BX_ADDRESS_SPACES];
The changeover is controlled by BX_SMP_PROCESSORS, but there are only
a few code changes since nearly all code uses the BX_CPU(n) and BX_MEM(n)
macros.
- This turns out to make a 10% speed difference! With this revision,
the CVS version now gets 95% of the performance of the 3/25/2000
snapshot, which I've been using as my baseline.

- The general task was to make multiple CPU's which communicate
through their APICs. So instead of BX_CPU and BX_MEM, we now have
BX_CPU(x) and BX_MEM(y). For an SMP simulation you have several
processors in a shared memory space, so there might be processors
BX_CPU(0..3) but only one memory space BX_MEM(0). For cosimulation,
you could have BX_CPU(0) with BX_MEM(0), then BX_CPU(1) with
BX_MEM(1). WARNING: Cosimulation is almost certainly broken by the
SMP changes.
- to simulate multiple CPUs, you have to give each CPU time to execute
in turn. This is currently implemented using debugger guards. The
cpu loop steps one CPU for a few instructions, then steps the
next CPU for a few instructions, etc.
- there is some limited support in the debugger for two CPUs, for
example printing information from each CPU when single stepping.
what action to take on panic, error, info, and debug. The lines don't
have any effect quite yet because of an initialization order problem
with the logfunctions.
signal. First, selection of the GUI should cause BX_GUI_SIGHANDLER to
be defined in config.h.in. Then, the GUI should define member functions
Bit32u get_sighandler_mask ();
void sighandler (int sig);
The mask function returns a bitfield where one bit corresponds to each
signal. For any signal whose bit is set to 1 in the return value of
get_sighandler_mask, the gui will control that signal. When the signal
arrives, bx_gui.sighandler(sig) will be called by bx_signal_handler,
instead of the default behavior of that signal.
For compilers (such as Microsoft VC++) which don't allow "LL" after a
constant to make it 64-bit, this patch declares all such constants as
BX_CONST64(value). Then in config.in, a switch called
BX_64BIT_CONSTANTS_USE_LL controls whether the macro puts the
LL's in or not. Configure sets the macro, if you're on a platform
that can run such things.
