The end goal will be also merging of disasm and cpu decoder to one module and remove the disasm.
Two bug fixes on the way:
TBM: fixed 64-bit TBM instructions with memory access (did 32-bit load instead of 64-bit)
BMI2: fixed operands order for PEXT/PDEP instructions
AVX2: fixed gather instruction decoding bug from decoder alias commit
Bochs instruction emulation handlers won't refer to direct fields of instructions like MODRM.NNN or MODRM.RM anymore.
Use generic source/destination indications like SRC1, SRC2 and DST.
All handlers are modified to support new notation. In addition fetchDecode module was modified to assign sources to instructions properly.
Immediate benefits:
- Removal of several duplicated handlers (FMA3 duplicated with FMA4 is a trivial example)
- Simpler to understand fetch-decode code
Future benefits:
- Integration of disassembler into Bochs CPU module, ability to disasm bx_instruction_c instance (planned)
Huge patch. Almost all source files wre modified.
- #GP when trying to set reserved bits of CR4_HI in 64-bit mode
- #GP when trying to set reserved bits of EFER MSR
- clear upper part of RSI/RDI when executing rep instructions with 32-bit asize
even if no repeat iterations were executed (because of RCX=0 for example)
- write SYSENTER_EIP_MSR and SYSENTER_ESP_MSR as 64-bit when x86_64 supported
- set MSR_FMASK reset value
- MSR_FMASK should be 32-bit only
- check for fetch permissions when doing ITLB lookup
- #GP when trying to write non-canonical address to MSR_CSTAR or MSR_LSTAR
- correct repeat instructions timing
- mark TSS busy in TR after it is loaded
Starting convergence to new lazy flags scheme by Darek Mihocka (www.emulators.com). The new flags code is still being validated and perfected but I try to minimize the diff between 2 versionS
- Fixed critical bug in CPU code added with one of the prev commits
- Disasm support for SSE4
- Rename PNI->SSE3 everywhere in the code
- Correctly decode, disassemble and execute 'XCHG R8, rAX' x86-64 instruction
- Correctly decode, disassemble and execute multi-byte NOP 0F F1 opcode
- Fixed ENTER and LEAVE instructions in x86-64 mode
- Added ability to turn ON instruction trace, only GUI support is missed.
Instruction trace could be enabled if Bochs was compiled with disasm
- More changes Bit32u -> bx_phy_address
- Complete preliminary implementation of SMM in Bochs, SMI is still PANICs but if you press 'continue' everything should work OK
- Small code cleanup
- Update CHANGES and user docs
Averything that required cpu.h include now has it explicitly and there are a lot of files not dependant by CPU at all which will compile a lot faster now ...
