Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.

Used in the high end HP9000/300 machines. Provides a resolution
of 1280x1024 @ 8bpp. It also provides two overlay planes and one
phantom plane. Each plane contains two window movers that are used
for copying characters and tiles on the screen. It also has a RUG
for line/vector drawing. The current state implements everything
that is required to have a working HP Visual user environment in
MAME.
Working:
- window mover
- pixel replacement rules
- window replacement rules
- f0 tripple replacement rule (copy src or keep destination depending on pattern register)
- VRAM bit access mode
- solid line drawing
Not implemented yet:
- drawing circles
- linetype vector/circles
- rectangles
- filling areas
- tripple replacement rules other than f0
-nscsi_cd.cpp: Added various new-SCSI CD-ROM devices which support 512-byte blocks by default. [Ryan Holtz]
-sgikbd.cpp: Added a rudimentary HLE SGI Indigo keyboard device. Still needs keys to be mapped. [Ryan Holtz]
-indigo.cpp: Various changes: [Ryan Holtz]
* Expanded logging.
* Enabled PIT8254 timer. Has the wrong clock value; the correct clock causes a hang.
* Improved RAM layout.
* Added stubs for DSP RAM and Entry-level graphics.
On HP9000/300, these modules where always a logical unit connected to
the DIO bus. On some systems this was even a seperate DIO module. Lets
represent this in software. It also cleans up hp9k_3xx.cpp.
* Separate Microsoft 2-button mouse and Logitech 3-button Microsoft-compatible mouse
* Add Microsoft wheel mouse
* Make Mouse Systems mouse behave more realistically
* Add Mouse Systems "rotatable" mouse
* Simplify code and eliminate timers
(nw) X/Y translation and buttons works for all devices. The wheel on
the wheel mouse seems to be transmitting the right data, and CuteMouse
detects the wheel as being present, but no software seems to support it
properly. Software supporting the Mouse Systems "rotatable" mouse is
very rare - typically people just set the DIP switches on their M-1 for
"non-rotatable" mode. A standard mouse driver will see the "rotatable"
mouse moving two mickeys for each count, and move eratically on
rotation. The "rotable" mouse is poorly tested due to lack of software.
(nw) MAME doesn't have a proper input type for a mouse wheel, and it
doesn't seem to be possible to map the host mouse wheel to an axis when
configuring inputs. The default mapping ends up assigining the wheel or
rotation to one of the translation axes, which is very unhelpful.
Also add notes to Sun keyboard emulation.
There's a hack to make the 1200 Baud mouse actually run at 9600 Baud.
This is necessary because the SCC is incorrectly expecting 9600 Baud
rather than 1200 Baud. I don't have time to fix the SCC, so I'd
appreciate it if someone else would.
There's no way it should be expecting 9600 Baud on the mouse port.
Solaris 2.3 and later support 1200 Baud and 4800 Baud, and earlier
versions support 1200 Baud only. No version of Solaris works with a
9600 Baud mouse.
The workaround allows the mouse to be used in SunView on sun4_60 - I
haven't tested any other drivers.
* Implement Mitsumi Amiga 500, 600, and 2000/3000/4000/CDTV keyboards
* Add unlabeled keys to UK layout
* Restrict available keyboards depending on system type
* Note that C-A-A reset is now broken on "big box" Amigas as MAME doesn't implement it properly, and the hack providing a fake dedicated reset line has been removed
6502 MCU: fix execute loop
6500/1: implement as device with onboard peripherals
Fix some bogus comments
(nw) New keyboard only has U.S./Canada and UK variants for now. This keyboard doesn't
drive a dedicated reset line, instead using some sequence on the clock line detected by
the host chipset. MAME doesn't support this, so keyboard reset won't work. Also started
documenting the character labels on the keypad NumLock/ScrLock keys for language variants
but still need more pictures.

* added a high-level emulation of the InterPro keyboard
protection handled etc. written from scratch based on notes from Kevtris and Peter
banking in the slot system seems somewhat archaic compared to proper modern banking, but this is how all other drivers I saw using slot roms did it.
* hp85: added support for optional ROM cartridges. Started optional ROM
sw list (not finished).
* hp85: refactored mapping of opt. ROMs according to cuavas' comments
* Implemented front panel mode switches/LEDs and reset switch
* Added skeleton bus for "universal" slots and connected control lines
(nw) Default keyboard mapping is annoying because left shift, Z and X
are used both for typing into the TTY and switching program bank. You're
better off changing the mapping to make it less annoying or using a
socket and talking to it with telnet.
The core changes are:
* Short name, full name and source file are no longer members of device_t, they are part of the device type
* MACHINE_COFIG_START no longer needs a driver class
* MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED_CLASS is no longer necessary
* Specify the state class you want in the GAME/COMP/CONS line
* The compiler will work out the base class where the driver init member is declared
* There is one static device type object per driver rather than one per machine configuration
Use DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE or DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to declare device type.
* DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE forward-declares teh device type and class, and declares extern object finders.
* DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS is for devices classes in namespaces - it doesn't forward-declare the device type.
Use DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE or DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to define device types.
* These macros declare storage for the static data, and instantiate the device type and device finder templates.
The rest of the changes are mostly just moving stuff out of headers that shouldn't be there, renaming stuff for consistency, and scoping stuff down where appropriate.
Things I've actually messed with substantially:
* More descriptive names for a lot of devices
* Untangled the fantasy sound from the driver state, which necessitates breaking up sound/flip writes
* Changed DECO BSMT2000 ready callback into a device delegate
* Untangled Microprose 3D noise from driver state
* Used object finders for CoCo multipak, KC85 D002, and Irem sound subdevices
* Started to get TI-99 stuff out of the TI-990 directory and arrange bus devices properly
* Started to break out common parts of Samsung ARM SoC devices
* Turned some of FM, SID, SCSP DSP, EPIC12 and Voodoo cores into something resmbling C++
* Tried to make Z180 table allocation/setup a bit safer
* Converted generic keyboard/terminal to not use WRITE8 - space/offset aren't relevant
* Dynamically allocate generic terminal buffer so derived devices (e.g. teleprinter) can specify size
* Imporved encapsulation of Z80DART channels
* Refactored the SPC7110 bit table generator loop to make it more readable
* Added wrappers for SNES PPU operations so members can be made protected
* Factored out some boilerplate for YM chips with PSG
* toaplan2 gfx
* stic/intv resolution
* Video System video
* Out Run/Y-board sprite alignment
* GIC video hookup
* Amstrad CPC ROM box members
* IQ151 ROM cart region
* MSX cart IRQ callback resolution time
* SMS passthrough control devices starting subslots
I've smoke-tested several drivers, but I've probably missed something. Things I've missed will likely blow up spectacularly with failure to bind errors and the like. Let me know if there's more subtle breakage (could have happened in FM or Voodoo).
And can everyone please, please try to keep stuff clean. In particular, please stop polluting the global namespace. Keep things out of headers that don't need to be there, and use things that can be scoped down rather than macros.
It feels like an uphill battle trying to get this stuff under control while more of it's added.

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.
- 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.

is available and cannot be modified. [Fabio Priuli]
intvecs: Converted hand controllers, keyboard and synth to be slot devices,
by using a temporary hack to workaround the impossibility to plug the same
device into 2 different slots as these keyboard require. [Fabio Priuli]
out of whatsnew: in the long term we need to come up with a core solution
for these devices that occupy multiple slot devices at once (another one is
the VCS Compumate which plugs into both VCS control ports), because the
hack I used (a "fake" control port which acts as a passthru for the two real
control ports) is not really satisfactory. However, current solution is better
than the selectable controllers we had, which were (ab)using
PORT_CONDITIONs...
- Remove custom 6845 emulation and use our standard core
- Use the slot system for the parallel interface, fix and implement the
joystick as a slot device and create a printer slot device
- Add support for the RS-232 port
- Add support for the Break key (causes NMI)
make TARGET=mess -j19
will generate all needed files and build MESS, while developing you can use
make TARGET=mess COMPILE=1 -j19
to prevent rebuilding of make files.
Build system have automatic generate of dependencies so will do incremental builds fine.
make clean
will remove all generated files/projects and obj files
