- Force a status bar update after unregistering an item.
- Added status indicators for USB disk and cdrom.
- Handle USB device disconnect in the runtime config handler, too.
devices like USB disk, cdrom or floppy. Using this feature for the new USB
floppy. Removed static indicators for port activity from the USB HC code.
TODO: Implement status LEDs for USB disk and cdrom.
by Ben Lunt. To connect a USB floppy you can use the 'floppy' device with the
path to the image separated with a colon. VVFAT is also supported.
FIXME: The device detection fails on some recent Linux distributions.
FIXME: Only 1.44M media format is currently supported.
TODO: Media change without disconnect is not implemented yet.
USB UHCI and the E1000 NIC are known to work fine on some guest systems, so
it's safe to remove this attribute.
TODO: Some other Bochs features need to be reviewed for this.
Notes by Ben:
This emulates a NEC/Renesas uPD720202 2-port (2 socket, 4-port register sets)
Root Hub xHCI Host Controller.
Many, many thanks to Renesas for their work and effort in helping my research.
I have tested in with my own tests and WinXP Home Edition SP3.
Use port1 and port2 to emulate a Super-speed device, and use port3 and port4
to emulate Low-, Full-, or High-speed devices.
NOTE: The Windows driver for this device uses a proprietary detection
mechanism and we don't have the permission to implement it. That's why it only
works fine with non-Windows guests.
- removed max_packet_size member from USB device structure
- usb_uhci: improved speed info
- updated USB-related documentation
- TODO: review and test the main part of the xHCI changes by Ben
- embedding combined manifest makes BOCHS.EXE usable
- list of DLL plugins now depends on the pci and debugger options
- 'make clean' now removes the generated manifest files
- renamed variable for external rules
- documentation update
sections. A better solution must be found for the basic set of device plugins
in iodev that don't require special rules.
Switched back to the original gui macro naming for linking plugins.
rules can be built now (keyboard, pit, gameport, serial, vga, svga_cirrus,
hdimage, netmod, soundmod, usb_common). The generated DLLs are usable with the
BOCHS.EXE built with the IDE, but the nmake won't work at all yet.
- save function implemented using a dummy parameter that only receives the
result of the save operation. The parameter's save/restore handlers doing
the main job. The numerical values of the requests are saved in a separate
text file. The data transfer buffers are saved as binary files.
- the request data buffers are now created dynamicly
- TODO: restore SCSI requests
that is a part of the libtool package. Updated Makefile dependencies.
TODO: check if we can get rid of the ltdl*.* files (this would be possible if
the ltdl library is always available if libtool is present).
- If the runtime flag of a bx_list_c object is set, all it's items are set up
as runtime options.
- Set the runtime parameter for all top-level runtime-only lists. Setting up
each single parameter is no longer needed.
- use #if BX_SUPPORT_CDROM instead of #ifdef LOWLEVEL_CDROM
- devices with cdrom support now use the base class cdrom_base_c
- cdrom count variable moved to cdrom.cc
- cdrom_misc.cc: don't use ioctl's for ISO files
- bx_list_c: added support for removing parameter with other parent list
- USB HC's: remove item from runtime config on simulation exit
- initialize bx_user_quit in bx_begin_simulation()
- only remove optional plugin from list if alrady unloaded
- isempty() returns 1 if string length is 0 or string has special value "none"
- sprint() copies the formatted / converted string into a buffer
- use new methods in some parts of the code (TODO: win32 dialogs)
- check for the special value "none" to avoid failures
- renamed config parameter "i440fx_support" to "enabled"
- new config parameter "chipset" added (current choices "i430FX" and "i440FX")
- don't load ACPI support if the i430FX chipset is selected
- select register values for the core PCI devices depending on the chipset
- USB UHCI must be connected to a PCI slot if the i430FX chipset is used
- rombios changes to make the i430FX chipset work
- TODO #1: implement limitation to 1 cpu and 128 MB RAM for the i430FX chipset
- TODO #2: verify register behaviour of both chipsets
dummy parameter and it's save/restore handlers. Currently only the save
support is implemented and the specific save function is only written for
flat mode images (copies whole disk image file to the save/restore folder).
- TODO #1: implement save function for the other disk image modes
- TODO #2: add restore support (replace disk image file with the one from the
save/restore folder)
add the LGPL to usb_hid.cc
- moved Ben's comment to usb_uhci.cc, since this file contains most of his
initial pciusb patch
- TODO: implement full USB keyboard support (port from QEMU)
been ported from QEMU and originally have this license
- TODO: The QEMU people should verify the changes and tell us if something is
missing. Bochs 2.6 will be released after everything has been confirmed to
be okay.
- SIM->opt_plugin_ctrl() now can be used to verify the optional plugin
configuration when using the plugin name "*". The 'load' value 1 makes
sure that all plugins with the value 1 are loaded. The 'load' value 0
unloads all plugin with the value 0 (marked for removal).
- add the default set of plugins to the 'plugin_ctrl' list and load all these
pre-defined optional plugins before parsing the configuration.
- special wx case: verify plugin configuration before showing the plugin
control dialog and before initialising hardware.
- device plugins that have been loaded, but not configured now set their
plugin control value to 0. Added the plugin unload check before signalling reset.
- new gui method set_mouse_mode_absxy() should switch the gui to absolute
x/y mode
- new DEV_mouse_motion() argument 'absxy' indicates whether or not the gui
sends absolute x/y values
- USB tablet code prepared to use the new feature
- TODO: implement this feature for each gui (sdl, win32, wx, x, ...)
- siminterface: don't create plugin parameter if it already exists
- wx: make sure all plugins are loaded when creating plugin control dialog
- USB HC's: fixed removal of parameters when unloading plugin
