* tee allows two peripherals to be connected in parallel
* glinkhle is an RS232 (9600 8N1) adaptor
* bitsock sends raw assert/release line signals to/from a bitbanger device
* monospkr is a speaker connected between tip/ring in parallel and sleeve
* stereospkr is two speakers: left across tip and sleeve, right across ring and sleeve
Use glinkhle to make emulated calculators talk with cooked sockets, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport glinkhle -linkport:glinkhle:rs232 null_modem -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
Use bitsock to make emulated calculators talk with cooked sockets, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport bitsock -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
You can use tee to do stuff like listen to data activity for debugging purposes, e.g.
mame ti82 -linkport tee -linkport:tee:a stereospkr -linkport:tee:b glinkhle -linkport:tee:b:glinkhle:rs232 null_modem -bitb socket.127.0.0.1:2345
* Make device_creator a variable template and get rid of the ampersands
* Remove screen.h and speaker.h from emu.h and add where necessary
* Centralise instantiations of screen and speaker finder templates
* Add/standardise #include guards in many hearers
* Remove many redundant #includes
* Order #includesr to help catch headers that can't be #included alone
(nw) This changes #include order to be prefix, unit header if applicable
then other stuff roughly in order from most dependent to least dependent
library. This helps catch headers that don't #include things that they
use.
* Remove fake interrupts and rewrite coin handling
* Use correct CPU type
* Use screen raw parameters
* Use generic 8x8x1 gfx layout
* Update ROM filenames
- Use tilemap system to draw background/foreground characters (and use
generic gfx_8x8x2_planar layout)
- Add mario and dkong3 bootlegs running on extended hardware (color
PROMs for those haven't been dumped, using the PROMs from the original
currently)
- Update and correct dip switches
- Document tile attribute RAM and sprite RAM layout bits
- Use screen raw parameters
- Add connector layout
- Update TODO list
- Update ROM filenames
New working driver:
-------------------
Donkey Kong 3 (bootleg on Ambush hardware)
- Moved 9312 and 74279 to ttl macro library.
- Renamed TTL_9312_* to DM9312. This is more appropriate.
- Fixed a number of warnings from latest ubuntu clang-5.0.
* Use size_t for sizes and <algorithm> for algorithms
* Fix up some files that were getting linked into multiple libs
* Add missing virtual method to sh2 peripheral class
* Put shortname in driver struct for locality
* Use shared pointers in config LRU cache for safety
Per Vas' request. If the compile fails for you (i'm thinking osx and
windows native debuggers here in particular), add '#include "emu.h"'
as first include of the cpp files that fail.
Due to our use of precompilation and forced inclusion, emu.h must be
included as the very first non-comment thing we do if we want to be
sure msvc compiles are identical to gcc/clang ones. Doing it directly
instead of through an include increases the correctness probability by
a magnitude.
- Created devices for the galaxy games carts (EEPROM + Flash + PIC) and the slot(s)
- Removed code patches and emulated the PIC communication and bank switching
- Converted the blitter to a device (cesblit.cpp)
- moved the Galaxy Games from tmaster.cpp to their own driver (galgames.cpp)
Provided the PIC code for all four StarPak cartridges [Keith M. Kolmos]

* Put Amiga keyboard implementations in a namespace
* Factor out matrix keys to a common module shared by A500/A1200
* Make new German matrix based on US matrix with Alt-chars hooked up
* Remove outdated comment
- Create EFO, Promat, Terminal, Wing projects to help reduce the weight of libmisc
- Eliminate Veltmeijer Automaten project (only two games by this company are in MAME, and one actually on Excellent System hardware)
* Added m146805 and m68hc05 to unidasm
* Made opcode tables configurable in m6805_base_device, provided tables for HMOS, CMOS and HC families
* Implemented MUL instruction, made unimplemented STOP and WAIT raise fatal error
* Added skeleton MC68HC05C4 with RAM and ROM in correct locations in memory map
Device implementations (all cpp files in netlist/devices) now should
only include nl_base.h.
Netlist implementation sources should only include "net_lib.h".
Refactored netlist.h and netlist.cpp to avoid namespace congestion in
netlist.h.
Fixed VC2015 build. (nw)
* should be #included after other headers and after optionally #defining VERBOSE
* usage samples in z80scc.cpp and m68705.cpp
68705: add lots of logging to help trace issues
m68705: expose more more internal registers through the state interface
* shows contents of registers that can't be read by program code
i8251: make receive more reliable clean up a little
zorba: meat on the bones
* create emulated keyboard device
- 88 of 96 matrix keys identified, 6 of 8 DIP switches identified, 3 of 6 outputs identified
* connect IEEE-488, RS232 and Centronics ports
* hook up all IRQ sources and connect PIT to UARTs
* more notes
osborne1, gladiatr: use input changed member (nw)
- refactored reverse polish notation evaluator into own source files.
- added function parameter to current and voltage sources VS and CS.
You can now use those to e.g. produce a sine wave.
- Changed code to allow devices to optionally be treated as dynamic or
timestepping devices.
[Couriersud]
* remove non-obvious mcu_status_r and semaphore_r members and move to drivers (varies by system)
* slap fight functionality can be safely folded into base class so do so
* remove leftover crud from driver state classes
qix.cpp, bub68705, changela: use new MC68705P3 core
* Moved 68705 devices into their own file.
* Made P3, P5 and U3 variants and made them load bootstrap ROMs.
* Implemented EPROM control (write is stubbed out with a logerror).
* Implemented differences for open drain I/O ports.
(nw) Base device with peripherals should really derive from the 6805
device directly, not the 68705 devices, as I/O ports are present on mask
devices (e.g. 6805P2). All drivers and devices that were using
M68705_NEW have been changed to M68705P5 - someone who knows the drivers
better should fix them up.
- Conversion of the Cedar Magnet board from a base device class to a mix-in interface
- Emulate EFO ZSU as main variant of the Cedar Magnet sound board
- Hook up ZSU1 to Skill Flight and Phantom Ship
- Modernize ZSU soundlatch/IRQ mechanism
- More hardware notes (nw)
- Various associated code cleanups (nw)
into these files as well. The code uses <cfenv> which is part of c++11
standard. Non-standard glib extensions are currently only used on linux
and (i386 or x86_64). (nw)
we've been sitting on this for a while, progress was shown a few years ago, but is apparently lost. Smitdogg should be able to clarify the exact part numbers, they're not readable in the pictures.
Mario driver now uses netlist audio implementation instead of discrete

At least the source now links again. (nw)
- MSM5205 hooked up through 40105 FIFO
- Various notes based on Z80 code and schematics for related pinball sound board
40105 device improvements (nw)
- Split up configuration macros
- Tweaked device name and device type name
- New callback for automatic output write
- A few bug fixes for so_w
- Many comments and pinout added
- Allow stringing multiple callbacks together recursively. Chained callbacks will be read or written in sequence, and each can be configured with its own type and mask/shift/XOR parameters.
- Chained input callbacks cannot have overlapping masks (there's no such thing as a free multiplex). Chained output callbacks have no such restriction.
- Remove the constant parameter for the LOGGER callback type: it makes no sense for output, was always zero in existing usage, and is now unnecessary with callback chaining.
- Change LOGGER behavior for writes to log the user-defined message only if the output as masked is nonzero. With callback chaining, this can be used to monitor when individual bits become active.
- Constant read callbacks can no longer have MCFG_DEVCB_XOR or MCFG_DEVCB_INVERT specified (makes no sense in this context).
- Add a MEMBANK callback type to allow output bits to be used for bank-switching.
- Add ASSERTLINE and CLEARLINE callback types that raise or lower an interrupt line if the selected bit of the written value is active. These are intended for where periodic or ready-pulse signals from devices are used to trigger IRQs that the CPU program will independently acknowledge.
- Add MCFG_DEVCB_BIT as shorthand for masking and shifting out an individual bit for a callback.
- Removed DEVCB_LINE_DISPATCH_<n>. Where we're going, we don't need line dispatcher devices.
The incompatibility of compilers with regard to post-C90 printf string formats is shockingly bad. There seems to be no easy way to format a 64-bit value and please both gcc and clang, let alone MSVC.
-netlist: Added new devices: [Ryan Holtz]
* Intel 2102A 1Kbit (1024 x 1) Static RAM
* 74365 Hex Bus Driver with 3-State Outputs
* Generic 2- and 3-terminal Tristate device
* Note: Tristate device and 74365 do not actually tristate, they are simply a way of combining multiple outputs + chip enables.
It doesn't have much in common with the other games in the driver. Also
clean up the implementation, make spriteram 8-bit, add some hardware
info and add button descriptions.
selmenu: use LRU cache so icons don't all need to be reloaded on scroll
uismall.bdf: set default character for missing glyphs
rendfont.cpp:
* encapsulate many BDF and BDC handling details
* make file I/O 64-bit clean, check for allocation errors
* more solid BDF parser with error messages and trace logging
* fix heap smash when building bitmaps for BDF fonts
* extend BDC format to support high planes and default character
* render default character if glyph not found for BDF/BDC

- renamed a310->aa310 to avoid conflict with Amiga machines
- added all missing OS releases Arthur 0.30, RISC OS 2.01, RISC OS 3.00, RISC OS 3.10, RISC OS 3.19 (German)
- all machines default to OS (Arthur, RISC OS 2, RISC OS 3) they were shipped with
- corrected ROM labels/locations
- added default CMOS to boot to desktop
- mapped Acorn A4 Power Management extension
the bios and turn off JP1 as part of the installation. A v1 bios flash is included, but
you aren't forced to use it. [smf]
Moved G-NET protection out of ATAFLASH and into individual devices for each type of card [smf]

with the following games
Time Scanner (TS 2.0, Magnet System, prototype)
Exzisus (EX 1.0, Magnet System, prototype)
Xain'd Sleena (SC 3.0, Magnet System, prototype)
this is a checkpoint, there is a sizeable ToDo list but I think this is a good enough state for initial inclusion before working out the remaining issues. ArcadeHacker has the hardware working for questions etc.
I would especially appreciate help with sound (haven't a clue how it hooks up, tried lots of things, no luck) and some help in going over the CPU comms, especially with the sprite CPU as I think I must be missing something important. Likewise help from somebody more familiar with the floppy code from MESS so that it can use that, I had no luck in getting it to work with the copy protection or from a rom region, I've kept all floppy related code in a device so it's very easy to swap out so for now what I've got isn't intrusive.
note, very weird idea for a system, they've ported 3 arcade games from other manufacturers, original titles were advertised, but it's likely nothing more of the system exists.
the system uses 5 PCBs, one Z80 on each and instead of having dedicated sprite / tilemap chips they have the Z80s doing software rendering, using 8bpp framebuffers. 2 of the boards are for background planes, 1 of the boards is for sprites. The hardware has various memory expansions which look like afterthoughts as they're addressed in strange ways.
ataxx: Fixed missing sound channel caused by one dac not being hooked up and one dac being hooked up to two addresses.
bestbest: Fixed high pitch screech caused by incorrect addressing (two dacs weren't hooked up and two were hooked up to two addresses).
cchasm: Fixed static noise generation caused by feeding the same bit to both dacs.
cheekyms: Slightly improved sound by implementing sound triggers as 8 x 1 bit dacs instead of 1 x 8 bit dac.
galeb: Fixed sound by implementing it according to http://www.deltasoft.com.hr/retro/galebemu.htm & implemented enough of LOAD/SAVE to stop it hanging.
hard drivin: (all games in driver) Improved 12 bit controls, although centre still goes out of sync.
mea8000: Converted to a sound device.
megaphx: Fixed noisy samples due to wrong format.
microvsn: Fixed sound pitch caused by incorrect usage of write_signed8().
seicross: Changed to a 4 bit dac as samples are packed nibble.
spaceg: Preliminary sound using space invaders samples.
suna8: Changed to a 4 bit dac as samples are packed nibble.
vcombat: Fixed static during machine gun fire due to incorrect dc offset removal.
vectrex: Fixed noisy samples due to wrong format.
wheelfir: Fixed sound, eeprom & analogue steering wheel and brake pedal.
this is similar to, but not identical to goldstar.cpp / skylncr.cpp. it might be possible to merge it in, however my gut feeling is that said driver should be split up into different machine types all using some generic but fleixlbe video device that can handle these 8x8 tiles, 8x32 reel cases as most of them are based on the same basic concepts, just with their own tweaks.
reels, sounds, inputs are not hooked up here.

Mahjong Senpu [system11. David Haywood]
displays the game image, upside down, no palette for now, no inputs for now, no sound for now, going to continue work on it.
-Wno-missing-braces is unfortunately now necessary to avoid errors on almost every single use of the std::array initializer in devfind.h. (Apparently C++14 does make double braces optional for std::array initializers, but clang and GCC's -Wmissing-braces never took that into proper account, which is why GCC may still have it disabled by default.)
Several other Clang-specific warnings have been undisabled; some might perhaps need to be locally reenabled if legacy 3rdparty code or sundry OSD includes happen to disagree with them. The only warning to require any code changes was -Wabsolute-value, which seems to have caught a minor render bug (and nothing more).
Use: ./mame vgmplay -bitb file.vgm/vgz
Lots of chips missing, no visualization, no control of anything, no
volume control either, and no sound shutdown on end of file.
Turbosub had a ROM_COPY declaration with an expression ('ROM_COPY( "main_code", 0x18000 + 0x2000,...) and this simply did not work with the new model. This required changing ROM_* declarations to more resemble how they used to be and to perform the conversion on load.
Air Raid, Street Fight and Dark Mist all basically use very similar video systems (4 layers, 2 of them being ROM based tilemaps, a CLUT prom for each layer which controls colours and transparency handling)
this takes some steps towards allowing a common implementation of it.
This is a redo of the split first submitted in #137, with the following differences:
* The newly refactored rom_entry data structure is used
* I've kept the refactored softlist code in src/emu, in order to defer the mechanical process of moving it
* I've kept includes of softlist[_dev].h out of diimage.h, so that changes to either do not trigger an emu.h recompilation
* Obviously, this goes against the latest master
* Mark lots of things constexpr in attotime and turn macros into functions
* Add base classes for HLE matrix keyboard and buffered RS232 device
* Make generic keyboard/terminal more usable
* Keyboard has configurable typematic delay/rate
* Keyboard has selectable JIS/ANSI layout
* Keyboard handles simultaneous keypresses more intuitively
* Keyboard uses meta to set high bit
* Terminal has configurable auto LF on CR, auto CR on LF and local echo
* Terminal has audible bell
* Untangle Olivetti M20 keyboard from generic_keyboard
* Add notes to Olivetti M20 keyboard emulation
* Make Olivetti M20 keyboard match physical layout
* Untangle RM Nimbus keyboard from generic_keyboard
* Fix natural keyboard mode with RM Nimbus
* Untangle x68k keyboard from generic_keyboard
* Improve x68k key names and mapping
* Improve x68k typematic behaviour
* Untangle QX-10 keyboard from generic_keyboard
* Keep NGEN keyboard barely working
The keyboard should communicate at 1,200 Baud, but due to bugs in the SCC
it's set to 9,600 Baud. The sun4c machines program the Baud rate
generator dividers for the serial ports with 00:0e and the dividers for
the keyboard/mouse ports with 00:7e. Therefore the ratio of Baud rates
should be (0x7e + 2) / (0x0e + 2) = 128 / 16 = 8. However both the RS232
ports and the keyboard/mouse ports run at 9,600 Baud, when the
keyboard/mouse ports should run at 1,200 Baud (which is 1/8 of 9,600 which
matches the ratio of the divider values).
I've artificially limited the rate the keyboard can transmit at to be no
faster than it could at 1,200 Baud using a timer. I can remove this hack
once we get correct SCC divider behaviour.
I attempted to hook up the SCC interrupts to level 12 as specified in the
SPARCstation-1 Programmer's Model in the table on Page 19. No interrupts
seem to be generated, so either I've screwed this up somehow, the Sun
isn't enabling interrupts, or there's another bug in the SCC emulation.
Sorry if I've screwed it up - I won't be offended if someone replaces it
wholesale.
The keyboard receives the reset commands from the Sun and sends back the
self test pass response, but the SCC seems to get a buffer overrun error.
So it appears that the received data isn't being read out. I haven't been
able to work out why.
* .h -> .ipp for things that aren't really headers
* make more stuff in selmenu private
* move the remembered driver/software associated with the snap to the cache object
* start cleaning up constness in datfile manager - it's still a mess of non-const statics
* Split out main menu and dat box drawing from base class
* Make a bunch of class statics proper per-machine persistent objects
* Object lifecycle fixes
- Button mappings completely reworked: grey bidding/suit selection buttons classified as keypad inputs and put in correct order, and other buttons as console-standard Start, Select, Button 1-2
- Inputs now read through PIO instead of RAM addresses, making them less hypersensitive
- Manufacturer/publisher is Unicard, as manuals and system/cartridge labels clearly state
- Added release years for some common cartridges
- (nw) Link bbcbc in its own library rather than the unrelated libacorn ("make clean" strongly recommended)
- Create a SG-1000 expansion slot.
- Hook up the SG-1000 expansion slot to sg1000.cpp and sms.cpp (sg1000m3).
- Split the sk1100 code from sg1000.cpp and attach it to the new expansion slot.
- Create a new FM Sound Unit device and attach it to the new expansion slot.
- For the sc3000 driver, re-add sk1100 as a fixed SG-1000 expansion device.
- Add sg1000 software list to sg1000m3 and Japanese/Korean SMS drivers.
sms.cpp: implemented some new findings [Enik Land]
- Remove some mirrors for ports $DC/$DD on SMSJ based on Charles' hw tests.
- Add basic C-Sync callback to 315_5124.cpp, based on Charles' hw tests.
- Add built-in Rapid Fire (uses C-Sync) for SMSJ and Korean SMS1 drivers.
- Add new SMS drivers due to XTAL differences:
sms1br - Tec Toy Master System I (Brazil)
sms2br - Tec Toy Master System II (Brazil)
smsbr - Tec Toy Master System III Compact (Brazil)
sms1paln - Tec Toy Master System I (PAL-N)
sms2paln - Tec Toy Master System II (PAL-N)
smspaln - Tec Toy Master System III Compact (PAL-N)
Brazil is PAL-M TV system, but I decided to call it by the
country name, seems to be better recognizable and for
emulation looks more like a NTSC system. PAL-N is used
in Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay and looks closer to
the European PAL system when compared to PAL-M.
- Replaced shared_ptr by unique_ptr.
- Better seperation of setup_t and netlist_t.
- Fixed bugs in rdtsc code. Refactored timer code.
- Simplify conditional activation/deactivation.
- Introduced HINT(device, hint) to clarify that hints are inheritent
and not specific to devices.
- Added improved profiling support to netlist. Statistics output now
proposes devices for which whole device activation/deactivation be
disabled. No significant improvement for pong, but breakout
experiences a 10% improvement.
- Moved options code from include to cpp file.
- Minor modifications to 7493 and 9316
- Introduced perftime_t and perfcount_t for gathering statistics. These
templates do not create any code if statistics are not kept.
- Make help2man ./nltool produce usuable output.
- More truthtable refactoring. Removed half-finished code for internal
state support. As implemented, this would have had no support for
timing delays.

- Dead code removal and minor refactoring.
- Simplify. Align naming with stl. Fix somed pedantic warnings.
- More STL compatability.
- Remove ATTR_HOT and ATTR_COLD. Refactored netlist_time.
- Fix long standing workaround which would ignore policy of change-only"

=======================
V-Tech V-Smile Pro [TeamEurope]
out of whatsnew: also added a couple of discs which were dumped by
TeamEurope as well, and converted other German discs to CHD v5.
- Separate watchdog implementation from running_machine (once again) and driver_device
- Old-style methods, now hidden behind #ifdefs, will probably be safe to remove soon
exploit slot devices: [Fabio Priuli]
- moved cart-specific components to the carts itself removing
the fake protection devices from the main system, since they
never belonged there
- removed hacky rom region destruction/construction when a
new cart is inserted, replacing it with proper bank pointers to
the carts (except for ymsnd and ymsnd.deltat region which
will require modernization of the ym devices)
- started re-organization of bootleg boards emulation, so to
reduce the need of collapsing everything into a single cart
type with multiple protection devices, more work is needed
neopcb.cpp: moved to a separate source file the emulation for
JAMMA PCB versions of a few neogeo games, since they don't
have a cartslot. [Fabio Priuli]
neogeo.xml: added information about Japanese titles and
release dates to the software list and aligned the list to the
