- ported Qemu block driver (written by Alex Beregszaszi and Kevin Wolf)
- added helper functions bx_read_image() and bx_write_image()
- TODO: use helper function for the other disk image modes
- added new class bx_vgacore_c containing the core of the standard VGA
emulation. This is now the base class for both vga and cirrus.
- created 2 separate plugins 'vga' (for standard VGA and VBE) and 'svga_cirrus'
(Cirrus emulation). The vga extension option is used to select which plugin
should be loaded.
- TODO: move the pcivga code to the VGA/VBE code, add subdirectory for display
adapters, severak improvements and cleanups
- TODO #1: update MSVC workspace files
- TODO #2: these 'device classes' could be moved to subdirectories, too:
- pci (when we have more than one chipset)
- display (when we have one more device and vga / cirrus cleaned up)
- TODO: add save/restore support, use Bochs function for host to little endian
data conversion, timers of networking modules 'vnet' and 'slirp' should use
the device speed instead of fixed 10 MBit
and the supported ethernet modules
- renamed eth.* files to netmod.*
- pseudo-device plugin implementation similar to 'soundmod'
- TODO: move sound, net and usb stuff to a separate subdirectory of iodev
duplicate log prefixes on Windows if both IDE and USB cdroms are used in plugin mode. Windows also
requires the cdrom base class and the init_cdrom() method to link and work correctly.
DAC2 is sent to the lowlevel sound module. DAC1 and sound input (ADC) are not
yet supported. Also unsupported: CODEC (mixer), UART (MIDI) and legacy support.
Sound module selection in configure script now no longer depends on SB16 and
uses autodetection only.
- fixed segfault when saving bochsrc
* ported the read part of the Qemu vvfat block driver
* added win32 specific directory functions (required for MSVC)
* TODO: write support, FAT32 support, read MBR and boot sector from file
* added new "pseudo device" for the USB device control (init, send message)
* moved register_state() call from the hubs to the common device init code
- fixed unresolved symbols in usb_msd code
code and the generic USB stuff. Up to now, in plugin mode each host controller
staticly links all this stuff with the plugin library. So it existed twice and
e.g. it wasn't possible to create a unique serial number for disks/cdroms
connected to different HCs. Some other sanity checks could be added now, too.
- Added a register mechanism for the USB device init function in the main
devices code.
- TODO: Some other device plugins could be fixed the same way: network devices
(sharing ethernet modules), harddrive & usb_msd (sharing hdimage and
cdrom)
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
