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_*.
* 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
means of setting the minimum useful scheduling quantum, and clamping
all quanta to that value.
Changed interleave/boost handling to use scheduling quanta instead
of timers.
Added machine parameter to cpu_boost_interleave.
Updated cpuexec to compute the "perfect" interleave value taking into
account the minimum number of cycles per instruction specified by the
CPU core. Updated Z80 core to indicate that the minimum cpi is 2. Fixed
incorrect minimum cpi in the 68020+ cores.
Simplified a bit of logic in cpuexec_timeslice.
fine and basic searching/playback/skipping is functional. Still a bit
glitchy.
Firefox improvements:
- removed need for deprecat.h
- memory map is complete from schematics
- gutted laserdisc hacks in favor of actual laserdisc implementation
- fixed all CPU and sound clocks
Removed old laserdsc.c implementation.
Added generic timer devices, which simply allocate a timer but don't
prime it. This is the preferred method for allocating timers, and may
eventually be the only mechanism for doing so in the future.
is either DEVICE_START_OK or DEVICE_START_MISSING_DEPENDENCY. The latter
should be returned by a device if there is another device it depends on
which hasn't been started yet. Added new flag in the device interface to
indicate whether a device has been started.
Changed laserdisc interface to explicitly specify the screen and sound
devices it should route to. Drivers no longer have to manually call
laserdisc_vsync(). Instead, the laserdisc code connects up to the routed
screen device and works based on that screen's VBLANK timing. Removed
all existing calls to laserdisc_vsync().
Changed laserdisc behavior so that it completes the previous video read
and initiates the next read at the end of VBLANK instead of the beginning.
This gives player logic time during VBLANK to alter the slider position
prior to fetching the next frame.
Added new laserdisc callback for vsync begin and changed the update
callback to be called at the end of VBLANK. Also added functions to set
the slider speed, advance the slider, and directly control the video/
audio squelch. In addition, there is a new status function to get the
slider position in general terms.
Added parameter to the VBLANK callbacks supported in emu/video.c. Updated
all callers to provide a callback value.
Fixed bug that would cause watchpoints to trigger if you had a memory
window open to the watchpoint address.
Further updates to the PR-8210 ROM simulation. Still not quite there but
the system is much better understood now. Added layout to the PR-8210
which displays the state of the front-panel LEDs.
only remaining form is the one that takes a pointer parameter.
Added macros for STATE_PRESAVE and STATE_POSTLOAD to define common
functions. Added machine parameter to these functions.
Updated all drivers and CPU/sound cores to use the new macros
and consolidate on the single function type. As a result pushed
the machine parameter through a few initialization stacks.
Removed unnecessary postload callbacks which only marked all tiles
dirty, since this is done automatically by the tilemap engine.
Added DEVINFO_INT_TOKEN_BYTES, which is queried before device
startup. It should return the size of the structure that will
be hung off of device->token. It must not return 0.
Changed the core device interface to allocate and zero a block
of memory the size of DEVINFO_INT_TOKEN_BYTES before calling
device_start. The pointer to this memory is already attached
to device->token at the time device_start is called.
The primary motivation for this is to allow the device_start
function to make internal calls and pass the device_config *
around as if the object were fully constructed. Since the token
is used to indicate whether or not a device is live, this makes
the device "live" at the time device_start is called rather
than after it completes.
Converted Centipede, as an example.
To define a scanline timer, use something like this:
MDRV_TIMER_ADD("32V", SCANLINE, generate_interrupt)
MDRV_TIMER_SCANLINE("main", 0, 16)
The first number is the first scanline the timer will fire on, the 2nd number is the increment.
So in this case, the timer will fire on 0, 16, 32, ..., 224, 240, then wrap around
because the screen is defined as 256 lines high.
The current scanline is passed to the callback in its 'param' argument
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.
The idea is to create extra work if a driver wants to use these and hopefully
gives an incentive to look for an alternate solution
- Added #include of deprecat.h that rely on these contructs
- Removed a bunch of unneccassary #include's from these files
- removed years from copyright notices
- removed redundant (c) from copyright notices
- updated "the MAME Team" to be "Nicola Salmoria and the MAME Team"
The attached patch adjusts most conditional logging in MAME to use the
idiom "do { if (VERBOSE) logerror x; } while (0)". This has the
benefit that the compiler checks the syntax of the logging even in the
case it will be eliminated, and in fact a number of cases here needed
adjustments to compile because of this.
