Some devices already had one. Some I had to add an empty one.
I did a little cleaning of init() methods to make them more uniform
but generally I left them alone.
- I also put these exact diffs into a patch "patch.iodev-add-reset"
in case I want to revert these changes for some reason, for example
if they break an old patch. It should be deleted after a while.
more work in the floppy and bios code.
- floppy and cdrom entries in the runtime config menu can be disabled if the
drive wasn't defined in bochsrc or start menu
- floppy variable "initial_status" and cdrom variable "inserted" renamed to
"status"
- unused variable *ips in function build_runtime_options_prompt() disabled
a read-only disk image. For systems such as DOS that actually use the
BIOS services, it was also necessary to add code in int13_diskette_function
to recognize a write-protected error and return the correct error
status code (AH=3, Carry Set).
now floppy.cc no longer crashes if you try to open a write-protected
disk or read-only disk image. Instead, it tries a second time to
open the image read-only and only panics if this also fails. If the
image is opened read-only, a readonly flag is set
(bx_floppy.s.media[drive].read_only). If you try to write the floppy
when this flag is set, the write silently fails except for some messages
into the log. Instead of failing silently we should learn what the
floppy controller would really do in this situation and emulate it.
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.
