or ENDIANNESS_BIG based on the LSB_FIRST definition. Unlink LSB_FIRST,
ENDIANNESS_NATIVE always exists and can be used in expressions without
invoking the preprocessor.
Added macro ENDIAN_VALUE_LE_BE() which selects one of two values based
on the endianness passed in. Also added NATIVE_ENDIAN_VALUE_LE_BE()
which calls ENDIAN_VALUE_LE_BE with ENDIANNESS_NATIVE.
Updated a number of drivers and call sites to use these macros in favor
of #ifdef LSB_FIRST.
cpu_get_info_* -> device_get_info_*
cpu_set_info_* -> device_set_info_*
cpu_reset -> device_reset
Removed the cputype_get_* macros as they are not necessary.
Removed cpuintrf_init() which is no longer necessary.
return a boolean indicating whether the given address was successfully
located in a bank. Change raw/decrypted access to look at this result, and
if the given address is not in a bank, calls through to the standard read
handlers.
In theory, this should prevent crashes when accessing opcodes. It does in
fact prevent mp_col3 from crashing.
Fixed address space mapping handlers to invalidate direct access regions
if a change is made to the mapping. This is needed to prevent the Sega
dynamic memory mapping chips from falling over.
Removed opbase globals to the address_space structure.
Cleaned up names of pointers (decrypted and raw versus rom and ram).
Added inline functions to read/write data via any address space.
Added macros for existing functions to point them to the new functions.
Other related cleanups.
context ones (which are going away), the disassembler (which should
have no dependencies on the live CPU), and the validity check.
Removed global token from all pointer-ified CPU cores that don't
have internal read/write callbacks (which still need to reference it).
* added a set of cpu_* calls which accept a CPU device object;
these are now the preferred means of manipulating a CPU
* removed the cpunum_* calls; added an array of cpu[] to the
running_machine object; converted all existing cpunum_* calls
to cpu_* calls, pulling the CPU device object from the new
array in the running_machine
* removed the activecpu_* calls; added an activecpu member to
the running_machine object; converted all existing activecpu_*
calls to cpu_* calls, pulling the active CPU device object
from the running_machine
* changed cpuintrf_push_context() to cpu_push_context(), taking
a CPU object pointer; changed cpuintrf_pop_context() to
cpu_pop_context(); eventually these will go away
* many other similar changes moving toward a model where all CPU
references are done by the CPU object and not by index

- rewrote PowerPC implementation as a dynamic recompiler on top
of the universal recompiler engine
- wrote a front-end to analyze PowerPC code paths and register usage
- wrote a common shared module with C implementations of tricky
CPU behaviors
- added separate CPU types for the variants supported, instead of
relying on a hidden model enum
- rewrote the serial port emulation for the 4xx series to be more
accurate and not rely on separate DMA handlers
- rewrote the MMU handling to implement a software TLB that faults
in pages and handles changed bits appropriately
- implemented emulation of the PowerPC 603's software TLB, which
allows the model 3 games to run without a hack to disable the MMU
Updated the PowerPC disassembler to share constants with the rest of
the core, and to more aggressively use simplified mnemonics, especially
for branches. [Aaron Giles]
Universal recompiler:
- fixed frontend to handle opcode widths different from bus width
- added several new opcodes:
* (D)GETFLGS - copies the UML flags to a destination operand
* FDRNDS - rounds a double precision value to single precision
- renamed several opcodes:
* SETC -> CARRY
* XTRACT -> ROLAND
* INSERT -> ROLINS
- consolidated the following opcodes:
* LOAD?U -> LOAD
* LOAD?S -> LOADS
* STORE? -> STORE
* READ?U -> READ
* READ?M -> READM
* WRITE? -> WRITE
* WRITM? -> WRITEM
* SEXT? -> SEXT
* FTOI?? -> FTOINT
* FFRI? -> FFRINT
* FFRF? -> FFRFLT
- removed some opcodes:
* FLAGS - can be done with GETFLGS/LOAD4/ROLINS
* ZEXT - can be achieved with AND
* READ?S - can be achieved with READ/SEXT
- updated C, x86, and x64 back-ends to support these opcode changes
- updated disassembler to support these opcode changes
MIPS3 dynamic recompiler:
- updated to use new/changed opcode forms
- changed context switch so that it only swaps a single pointer
Konami Hornet changes: [Aaron Giles]

Konami Viper/ZR107 changes: [Aaron Giles]
- updated to new PowerPC configurations
Sega Model 3 changes: [Aaron Giles]

- these games are broken for the moment
Fixed crasher due to some Konami games using 8 layers in
the K056832 implementation, even though it was only written
for 4. [Aaron Giles]
Added fisttp opcode to i386 disassembler. [Aaron Giles]
1. In the MIPS core:
- renamed struct mips3_config -> mips3_config
- updated all drivers to the new names
- removed MIPS3DRC_STRICT_COP0 flag, which is no longer used
- a few minor cleanups
2. In the CPU interface:
- added new 'intention' parameter to the translate callback to
indicate read/write/fetch access, user/supervisor mode, and
a flag for debugging
- updated all call sites to pass an appropriate value
- updated all CPU cores to the new prototype
3. In the UML:
- added new opcode SETC to set the carry flag from a source bit
- added new opcode BSWAP to swap bytes within a value
- updated C, x86, x64 back-ends to support the new opcodes
- updated disassembler to support the new opcodes
4. In the DRC frontend:
- fixed bug in handling edge case with the PC near the 0 or ~0
* Fixed front-end so that virtual no-op instructions are still targeted
as branch targets.
* Fixed front-end to mark the beginning of each sequence as needing TLB
validation, since any sequence can be jumped to from anywhere.
* Redid the MIPS3 TLB implementation. Fixed the exception vector and
type handling. Changed the bitfields to directly map from the MIPS TLB
format. Added distinction between TLB fill and TLB valid/modified
exceptions.
* Added separate modes for user, supervisor, and kernel modes. Each mode
does proper verification of addresses now and generates address errors
for invalid accesses.
* Fixed several bugs in the TLB implementation; not everything works
yet but it's a lot closer.
* Made COP0 access checking mandatory in non-kernel modes.
* Fixed several crashes when recompiling virtual no-ops.
* Fixed TLB bug where entries for virtual address 0 were present by
default.
* Fixed bug in the map variable implementation that would sometimes
result in incorrectly recovered values.
is drcuml.c, which defines a universal machine language
syntax that can be generated by a frontend recompiler and
then retargeted via a generic backend interface to any of
a number of different architectures. A disassembler for the
UML is also included to allow examination of the generated
UML code.
Currently supported backend architectures include 32-bit x86,
64-bit x86, and a platform-neutral interpreted C backend that
can be used as a fallback for platforms without native
support. The C backend also performs additional validation
to ensure assumptions are met.
Along with the new architecture is a new MIPS III/IV
recompiler frontend. This frontend has been rewritten from
the old x64-specific recompiler to generate UML opcodes
instead. This means that the single recompiler can be used
to target multiple backend architectures and should in
theory produce identical results across all of them.
The old 32-bit and 64-bit MIPS recompilers are now officially
retired. The new system provides similar performance (within
5% generally) to the old system and has similar compatibility.
The only currently known issues are some problems with the
two Gauntlet 3D games.
suffixed with _func. Did this throughout the core and
drivers I was familiar with.
Fixed gcc compiler error with recent render.c changes.
gcc does not like explicit (int) casts on float or
double functions. This is fracking annoying and stupid,
but there you have it.
