(Used cpustate naming convention. Moved iCount into state struct.)
(Tested with arkanoid, bootleg bubble bobble, etc.)
(Next cpu I'll look at is the ARM.)
seems to be based on the cottong bootleg already supported, it was on
citylan as a 'blister' dump, program roms only, works best with the
other roms from cottong and the program is closest to that.

* select correct memory region by default when created
(should be first address space of visible CPU)
* when created, default bytes/chunk is correct
* when changing width, cursor no longer moves around
* memory regions display more than all 0xff now
Also fixed:
* qword big-endian memory reads no longer call little-endian handlers
* memory regions are tracked in creation order (show up in order
in the menu now)
* ROMREGION_DISPOSE memory regions are not disposed if the debugger
is enabled
appropriate, and to keep all global variables hanging off the
machine structure. Once again, this means all state registration
call sites have been touched:
- state_save_register_global* now takes a machine parameter
- state_save_register_item* now takes a machine parameter
- added new state_save_register_device_item* which now uses
the device name and tag to generate the base name
Extended the fake sound devices to have more populated fields.
Modified sound cores to use tags from the devices and simplified
the start function.
Renumbered CPU and sound get/set info constants to align with
the device constants, and shared values where they were perfectly
aligned.
Set the type field in the fake device_configs for CPU and sound
chips to a get_info stub which calls through to the CPU and sound
specific get_info functions. This means the device_get_info()
functions work for CPU and sound cores, even in their fake state.
Changed device information getters from device_info() to
device_get_info() to match the CPU and sound macros.

Subject: Another 8080/85 change from me
Hi Aaron,
I have noticed that there are some problems in interrupt handling in 8080 implementation. Thing is that there are some cases that made a problem while implementing one
computer emulation. Thing is that there is same computer with Z80 and 8080 cpu and ROM's are same, but interrupts were not triggered. So I have searched and found
two problems fixed with this patch.
1. previous implementation cleared interrupt enable bit on interrupt trigger which is wrong since interrupts should stay enabled
2. serve interrupt number was not cleared after interrupt is executed, so if same one is triggered it will not be catched.
I have tested with 8080 MESS drivers, and picked some of MAME drivers using 8080 and 8085, and there were no bad things found.
Regards,
Micko
recent cpu core changes. Specifically, it adds a fake device
implementation similar to the one the cpu cores were using in 128u3
(i.e. it only provides the machine pointer and the token), and makes
some interface adjustments aligned to 128u4 (i.e. adding
snd_class_header, adding get_ to various getter functions). The
primary benefit of this change is the removal of "deprecat.h" from 23
sound cores. I also adjusted ui.c to stop calling sndnum_clock and
access the clock data similarly to how it does the cpu clock data.

Subject: [patch] Fix 02689: jumpbug: Jumpbug won't start second time around
Hi mamedev,
Some global state needs to be zeroed to fix this mametesters bug.

02683: Pressing F5 while running debugger causes access violation
02669: pandoras: music tempo is too fast
02691: Some drivers with z80/ay8910 Audio: Audio tempo has changed
Also fixed debugger memory leak.
Added a number of new cputag_* macros to cpuexec.h.
To fix this, I had to break old INP files. While I was in there,
I added corefile support for compressing/decompressing data on
the fly, and enabled it for INPs, meaning the newer format INPs
are output and processed compressed.
