works. Added callback parameters to the expression engine. Improved
CPU parsing so you can use a CPU tag or index in most commands that
take one. Switched to passing CPU and address space objects around
where appropriate. Lots of other minor tweaks.
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.
related APIs now take a device pointer instead of an index.
All functions that take a CPU device are prefixed with cpu_*
All functions that are globally related to cpu execution
are prefixed with cpuexec_*. Below is a list of some of the
mappings:
cpu_boost_interleave -> cpuexec_boost_interleave
cpunum_suspend -> cpu_suspend
cpunum_resume -> cpu_resume
cpunum_is_suspended -> cpu_is_suspended
cpunum_get_clock -> cpu_get_clock
cpunum_set_clock -> cpu_set_clock
cpunum_get_clockscale -> cpu_get_clockscale
cpunum_set_clockscale -> cpu_set_clockscale
cpunum_get_localtime -> cpu_get_local_time
cpunum_gettotalcycles -> cpu_get_total_cycles
activecpu_eat_cycles -> cpu_eat_cycles
activecpu_adjust_icount -> cpu_adjust_icount
cpu_trigger -> cpuexec_trigger
cpu_triggertime -> cpuexec_triggertime
cpunum_set_input_line -> cpu_set_input_line
cpunum_set_irq_callback -> cpu_set_irq_callback
In addition, a number of functions retain the same name but
now require a specific CPU parameter to be passed in:
cpu_yield
cpu_spin
cpu_spinuntil_time
cpu_spinuntil_int
cpu_spinuntil_trigger
cpu_triggerint
Merged cpuint.c into cpuexec.c. One side-effect of this
change is that driver reset callbacks are called AFTER the
CPUs and devices are reset. This means that if you make
changes to the CPU state and expect the reset vectors to
recognize the changes in your reset routine, you will need
to manually reset the CPU after making the change (since it
has already been reset).
Added a number of inline helper functions to cpuintrf.h for
managing addresses
Removed cpu_gettotalcpu(). This information is rarely needed
outside of the core and can be obtained by looking at the
machine->cpu[] array.
Changed CPU interrupt acknowledge callbacks to pass a CPU
device instead of machine/cpunum pair.
Changed VBLANK and periodic timer callbacks to pass a CPU
device instead of machine/cpunum pair.
Renamed all information getters from cpu_* to cpu_get_* and
from cputype_* to cputype_get_*.
working on something, hold off syncing.
Defined macros for core CPU functions: CPU_INIT, CPU_RESET, CPU_EXIT,
CPU_EXECUTE, along with macros for the name and for calling, in the
spirit of the devintrf.h macros. More will come later.
Changed init, reset, exit, and execute interfaces to be passed a
const device_config * object. This is a fake object for the moment,
but encapsulates the machine pointer and token. Eventually this will
be a real device.
Changed the CPU IRQ callbacks to a proper type, and added a device
parameter to them.
Updated all CPU cores to the new macros and parameters.
Note that this changes the way we "pointer"-ify cores. I'll send an
update shortly.
macro from the source code. All MAME builds now include
the debugger, and it is enabled/disabled exclusively by
the runtime command-line/ini settings. This is a minor
speed hit for now, but will be further optimized going
forward.
Changed the 'd' suffix in the makefile to apply to DEBUG
builds (versus DEBUGGER builds as it did before).
Changed machine->debug_mode to machine->debug_flags.
These flags now indicate several things, such as whether
debugging is enabled, whether CPU cores should call the
debugger on each instruction, and whether there are live
watchpoints on each address space.
Redesigned a significant portion of debugcpu.c around
the concept of maintaining these flags globally and a
similar, more complete set of flags internally for each
CPU. All previous functionality should work as designed
but should be more robust and faster to work with.
Added new debugger hooks for starting/stopping CPU
execution. This allows the debugger to decide whether
or not a given CPU needs to call the debugger on each
instruction during the coming timeslice.
Added new debugger hook for reporting exceptions.
Proper exception breakpoints are not yet implemented.
Added new module debugger.c which is where global
debugger functions live.
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
Subject: [patch] More Machine->machine changes, add machine to irq
callbacks
Hi mamedev,
Here are two more patches to eliminate Machine globals. The first
patch was autogenerated by the attached fixup script. That script has
been updated to catch additional cases which it previously missed
(when Machine is the last parameter to a function or Machine is used
in an assignment). This makes ~50 more files deprecat.h free.
A sizable chunk (~20%) of the remaining uses of the Machine global in
the drivers are due to irq callbacks for sound and machine updates.
Typically such callbacks need to call cpunum_set_input_line, which
requires a machine parameter, so if the callbacks don't pass the
machine parameter, these routines have no choice but to reference the
global variable.
The second patch attempts to address most cases of this by adding the
machine parameter to the callback interfaces. This allows us to
remove #include "deprecat.h" from ~150 files, at the cost of having to
fix up hundreds of callbacks.
In total, these patches reduced the number of files with deprecat.h
from 783 to 575.

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.
Subject: [patch] Remove more Machine globals, #include "deprecat.h"
Hi mamedev,
The attached patch goes through and converts a number of Machine
globals to machine locals, and then removes #include "deprecat.h" if
appropriate. The script that generated it is included, since the
patch itself is rather large and would have been time consuming to
produce otherwise.
The script doesn't convert cases of Machine that aren't in common
macros. I'll try to tackle those later if someone doesn't beat me to
it.

direct byte, word, dword, and qword accessors for all bus sizes,
there are now masked word, dword, and qword accessors for all
bus sizes.
IMPORTANT: masks that are passed to the _masked_* functions are
NOT inverted. Although inverted masks are still passed to callback
functions, when you request a masked read or write the masks should
represent the bits you want.
Updated the various MIPS cores that use these functions to invert
their masks.
a new compile-time define (ENABLE_DEBUGGER). This means that MAME_DEBUG no longer means
"enable debugger", it simply enables debugging features such as assertions and debug code
in drivers.
Also removed the various levels of opbase protection in memory.h and always just turned
on full bounds checking.
Fixed build break due to missing ampoker.lay -> ampoker2.lay renaming.
