Allow cartridges to install themselves rather than putting accesses
through trampolines. Use memory banks even when they aren't installed
directly, as it exposes script bindings and declares intent.
Added support for MBC6 Flash, and MBC7 two-axis accelerometer and 128*16
or 256*16 serial EEPROM. Added basic support for Game Boy Camera image
capture (various M64282FP processing features are not implemented).
Improved MBC3 real-time clock emulation.
Added basic support for Hudson Soft HuC-1 cartridges (infrared I/O not
supported) and HuC-3 cartridges (real-time clock and infrared I/O not
supported).
Added full support for Vast Fame VF001 cartridges.
Separated Mega Duck flat and banked ROM cartridge types, and allowed
software list items to specify whether a cartridge has fixed and
selectable 16K banks or a single selectable 32K bank.
Added support for RAM sizes smaller than 8K that will be mirrored in the
0xA000-0xBFFF area. Implemented correct ROM mapping for sizes that are
not powers of two. Corrected size of MBC2 internal static RAM.
Added support for various hypothetical cartridge wirings, such as MBC5
with outer ROM banking for up to 128M, M161 and Wisdom Tree cartridges
with flat RAM, and MBC1 or MBC5 with fewer than the maximum number of
inner ROM bank lines used.
Fixed logo spoofing logic for many pirate cartridges, including Rocket
Games, Sachen MMC1 and MMC2, Sintax, Li Cheng, and Niutoude. Identified
fine bank mask register for GBCK003 board.
Added basic support for GBX format ROM images. Added heuristic for
detecting raw dumps of M161 cartridge images. Removed unreliable
unlicensed cartridge detection heuristics - these need to be
reimplemented in a better way.

ui: Added some missing functionality:
* Added an option to copy input device IDs to the relevant menus.
* Added an item for setting the software lists files path (-hashpath) to
the folder setup menu.
* Allow pasting text from clipboard in most places that allow typing
(searching, entering filenames, entering barcodes).
* Changed the software selection menu heading to be a bit less
misleading.
* Made barcode menu less eager to rebuild itself unnecessarily, and
removed some confusing and apparently pointless code.
Exposed more Lua bindings:
* Added low-level palette objects.
* Added indexed bitmap types.
* Added a bitmap method for extracting pixels from a rectangular area as a
packed binary string.
* Changed screen device pixels method to return width and height in
addition to the pixels.
osd: Added some functionality and cleaned up a little:
* Added a function for copying text to the clipboard.
* Moved function for converting Windows error codes to standard error
conditions to winutil.cpp so it can be used from more places.
* Removed duplicate declaration of osd_get_clipboard_text and made the
function noexcept (including fixing implementations).
* Made macOS implementation of osd_get_clipboard_text skip the encoding
conversion if it finds UTF-8 text first.
* Changed the default -uimodekey setting so it doesn't lose the "not
shift" that stops the default from interfering with UI paste.
Various bug fixes:
* util/unicode.cpp: Fixed the version of utf8_from_uchar that returns
std::string blowing up on invalid codepoints.
* util/bitmap.h: Fixed wrapping constructors for indexed bitmaps taking
the wrong parameter type (nothing was using them before).
* util/bitmap.cpp: Fixed potential use-after-free issues with bitmap
palettes.
* emu/input.cpp, emu/inputdev.cpp: Log 1-based device numbers, matching
what's shown in the internal UI and used in tokens in CFG files.
* emu/emumem.cpp: Added the bank tag to a fatal error message where it
was missing.
docs: Reworked and expanded documentation on configuring stable
controller IDs.
For translators, the changes are quite minor:
* There's a menu item for copying a device ID to the clipboard, and
associated success/failure messages.
* There's the menu item for setting the software list file search path.
* One of the lines in the software selection menu heading has changes as
it could be interpreted as implying it showed a software list name.
* Initial FAT file system support for Floptool
Current Limitations:
- Read only
- Only supports floppy disks
- No FAT32 support
- No Long Filenames Support
-Moved some stuff out of misc and skeleton:
* Moved Innovative Concepts machines to their own project.
* Moved various things out of skeleton to existing company projects.
* added emulation of required/used AXC51 / AX208 extended operations
* added preliminary emulation of required/used AXC51 / AX208 features
* added support for many Monon specific features, such as the video controller
* most games are playable, those not requiring a card/badge scanner to function at all are promoted
* no music, as it's contained in a game specific MCU under a glob on each cart
* cloned the mcs51 core as axc51, stripped it back, will allow monon work to continue without making a mess of the original mcs51 core.
* remove some redundant bits
* replace SFR table with AXC51 / AX208 one, removing some other functionality which is not the same on this series
* remove some other bits that are redundant now we're not trying to support other mcs51 models in the axc core
* Don't put full path to target resources in generated version resource
file.
* apple/sonora.cpp: Only #include "emu.h" as first thing in .cpp file to
avoid PCH issues.
* taito/rbisland.cpp: Cleaned up a few details.
- Use 16-bit pointer for sprite RAM storage (despite some systems only having 8-bit CPUs)
- Rename device and move to src/devices
- Clean up variable naming in associated drivers
- neobattl: Add DIP switch locations
- krzybowl: Reduce clocks to match known XTAL value
Added support for wildcards in .flt filter files. You'll need to quote
them to avoid /* being parsed as a comment initiator, like "seta/*.cpp"
on a line including the quotes.
Added an XSLT filter for listing system driver sources, like
mame -lx | xsltproc scripts/xslt/list-system-sources.xslt
Converted the ci subtarget (which isn't really used much) into a .flt
rather than .lua and .lst files.
Added SOURCEFILTER option to specify a driver filter file in your make
options, e.g. like make SUBTARGET=custom SOURCEFILTER=mydrivers.flt (or
put it in your useroptions.mak if you'll be using it a lot). It
functions more-or-less like SOURCES on steroids.
Changed the way system/device source file paths are displayed to suit
the new source layout better. INI file loading hasn't changed, that
still just uses the base file name.
Added overlooked trigger to src/bus.lua to include NES controller bus if
the NES zapper sensor is needed.
Driver projects now use globs to search for files. There's less effort
editing the Lua files when things are moved around. Remember it won't
automatically pick up a change, so if you add/remove/change files, you
should touch makefile to get it to find the change.
Driver projects no longer get the top-level MAME directory as an include
path. This means you need to think about how you structure things and
not introduce nasty circular dependencies.
Subtarget projects can now be generated entirely from .flt files without
the need for separate Lua scripts and .lst files. This has been done
for the arcade, mess and virtual targets. It effectively works like a
SOURCES= build on a large scale. This means you need to organise things
so the dependency genrators can find them.
There's an issue with the mess subtarget right now. For some reason,
decmate2.cpp isn't picking up the dependency on the PDP8 CPU core for
the HD6120 device. I'll debug it later
* Changed name of cards for slot selection to "mdc48" and "mdc824" as
they're unrelated to the later 8*24 GC card.
* Also cleaned up code substantially and got rid of artificial
differences between Display Card 4*8 and 8*24.
* Moved lists of NuBus and SE/30 PDS cards to a common place.
* Got some class declarations out of headers to reduce recompiles.
Started implementing the Macintosh Display Card CRTC. It gives correct
resolutions, although refresh rates are incorrect. Added machine
configuration settings allowing several monitors to be selected.
Implemented the Macintosh Display Card's packed RGB mode. The
base/stride in RGB mode make more sense with this implemented.
Cleaned up the code for the SuperMac Spectrum cards, and fixed the
garbage at the bottom of the screen on the Spectrum/8.
Put a layout with views for common monitor aspect ratios in a place
where cards can use it. This is especially useful for the NuBus cards
that can support portrait monitors.
Factored CRTC and shift register out of Spectrum/8 and added to Spectrum
PDQ. Fixes video mode selection and resolution for Spectrum PDQ.
Implemented vertical interrupt position, stride, line offset and clock
source registers for Spectrum PDQ. Added a hack to work around line end
control not being understood. Also added save state support.
Slightly modernised the Macintosh Display Card (JMFB) device code.
Initialised some driver state class members that were causing System 7
to fail to see files. [Ivan Vangelista]
emu/schedule.cpp: Fixed a few more pessimising assumptions. Gains a few
percent in Ketsui and SNES SuperFX.
util/endianness.h: Added some more operations on endian-swizzlers.
Changed a few more drivers to use them.
sun2.cpp: Fixed uninitialised variable that could cause corrupt video.
Fixed some issues with Visual Studio project generation after the
changes to Windows resource creation.
Optimised the scheduler's handling of unscheduled timers - gives a 50%
performance improvement in some timer-heavy drivers.
Added better endianness swizzling helpers.
Got rid of some of the OSD input modules' dependence on concrete input
classes from emu.
* Got rid of the special-casing for the "mess" subtarget name.
* Got rid of the MESS-specific Windows resources, emuator info source
and man page.
* Added subtarget name to the internal name and original name in Windows
resources.
-ui: Put the system-specific items on the input settings menu together,
and fixed the crosshair visibility settings.
Added menus for controlling toggle inputs, and showing recognised input
devices and control state. Moved input menu options off main menu to a
submenu, as there are a lot of them now.
Moved menu heading drawing into base class, added headings to more
menus, and made headings more consistent with the menu items used to
reach them. Also made terminology more consistent.
Changed the default names for buttons and hat switches/D-pads to use
1-based numbering. DirectInput still returns 0-based button numbers for
some devices.
Removed local copy of MinGW xaudio2.h as it’s now included in the MSYS2
package. Also fixed building the DirectSound sound output module with
the SDL OSD on Windows - the Windows headers are sensitive to include
order.
Started adding documentation for menus, to hopefully help people find
menus they remember seeing but can't recall how to access.
For translators, this makes terminology more consistent. In particular:
* "Settings" is preferred over "configuration" in a number of places, as
the latter can be construed as referring specifically to settings
stored in .cfg files in the cfg_directory folder. Also, references to
saving machine configuration could be interpreted as relating to the
settings on the "Machine Configuration" menu.
* The controls on host input devices (e.g. keys, buttons, joystick axes)
are referred to as "controls", while emulated inputs are referred to
as "inputs".
* The menus for assigning host controls to emulated inputs are called
"input assignments" menus to distinguish them from other input
settings menus.
* Combinations of controls that can be assigned to emulated inputs are
referred to as "combinations" rather than "sequences".
* The potentially confusing term "ROM set" has been removed altogether.
Use "short name" to refer to a device or system's identifier.
* "System" is used in almost places to refer to a complete, runnable
system rather than "Machine".
* "Driver" is now only used to refer to source files where systems or
devices are defined - it is no longer used to refer to individual
systems.
* A few more menus have message context for the messages. This makes it
a bit easier to guess where the messages are used. It also means you
can use different translations in different places if necessary (e.g.
if the same English text should be translated differently as an item
in one menu and as a heading in another).

Shuttle MS-11 [Angelo Salese, archive.org]
netlist: pointer to member function code
- Address PR #9752 and issue #8590
- change comments in ppmf.h
- add support for function desciptors (IA64)
- sizeof(size_t) may be different on build targets
make plib::hash use uint64 to ensure consistent static solver
hashes across platforms (EMSCRIPTEN)
- Moved constructor and member functions outside the class declaration
with the exception of "call" member functions.
- Updated comment on accessing RDX
- Added more test cases
* Removed execution bit on certain files
I have separated out the raw processing code into `ppmf.cpp`. I have
also taken first steps to clean the abi identification.
The code submitted now supports:
a) The unknown virtual inheritance case with specific code for MSVC for
simple (i.e. scalar, void, reference, pointer) return types using the
optimized code. This is the test case only supported under MSVC and
which should return 7. Please have a look at the code. Basically
m_vptr_offset is an index into a pointer table. It needs to be
multiplied by `sizeof(void *)`.
b) If you enable PPMF_EXPERIMENTAL complex return type member functions
for MSVC will also use the optimized code path. This is explained in
detail in the code in ppmf, including caveats and possible solutions.
c) Enabling PPMF_USE_MAME_DELEGATES will use `src/lib/util/delegate.h`
as a replacement for `ppmf.h`. This allows to run the same tests
(`nltool -c tests` from standalone build) as for the ppmf code.
d) The code now also supports `clang-cl`
e) sizeof(size_t) may be different on build targets.
Make plib::hash use uint64 to ensure consistent static solver hashes
across platforms. This fixes loading static solvers (if enabled) on
EMSCRIPTEN.

BBC Micro Model B (Norway) [Nigel Barnes]
New clones marked as NOT_WORKING
--------------------------------
Cisco SIST1 Terminal [Nigel Barnes]
Addressed pure virtual function call crash on end of emulation session
if you haven't explicitly removed all address space taps, memory
corruption on end of emulation session if you haven't explicitly removed
all address space change notifiers, and symbol being garbage-collected
out from under you while you have parsed expressions or other symbol
tables that depend on them.
Removed the copy constructor for parsed expressions as the underlying
C++ copy constructor appears to be broken, and simplified symbol table
constructors. Also made symbol table add methods return the new entry
to avoid the need for an extra lookup.
Fixed breakpoint/watchpoint objects being inappropriately copied into
the tables returned by bplist() and wplist(), allowing the enabled
property to be modifiable for breakpoint and watchpoint objects in Lua.
Fixed drivers and devices causing a new memory pass-through handler to
be allocated on each soft reset, and fixed multiple instances of taps
being installed in the event the machine is reset before the tap is
removed.
Added classes for managing broadcast subscriptions, and adapted address
spaces to use this for change notifications.
- Add W65C02S CPU emulation with subtly different fetch patterns from classic 65C02 and use it for arbv2, cmmb103, cmmb162 and bbc_tube_rc6502
- Replace ST2XXX's slightly customized CPU emulation with hooks into new W65C02S core
* Created an initial file system implementation for OS-9 under the CoCo
* Minor fixes to directory entry handling
* Changed to use fsblk_t::r[8|16|24|32]b()
- Changed the above functions to be const
- Remove the iodevice_t classification, which was not used that much and was incomplete anyway. Image device implementations must now provide their own instance names and brief instance names. Several new parent classes have been created to make it easier to use the old standard names.
- Change must_be_loaded from a pure virtual function to be overridden in implementations to a getter for a base class property that can be set on the host side (as was formerly made possible for NES, MD and "generic" cartridge slots) but defaults to false for all types. This restrictive property has been unset for a small number of cases.
- Create parent classes for paper tape and magnetic tape devices. At present these are dummy classes that do little to nothing, but may help unify implementations in the future.
- Change several member functions to take std::string_view parameters rather than const std::string & or const char *.
- Make update_names take into account brief names, as discussed in PR #2555.
- Remove the obsolete uses_file_extension function (which used thread-unsafe strtok).
* portfolio_ccm_slot: Change image type from "cartridge" to "memcard"
* i7220, datapack: Add custom instance names that weren't there before
* pc11: Add note
* Reimplemented support for the CoCo's RS-DOS filesystem on top of the "fsmgr" framework (currently read only)
* Added support for file_type and ascii_flag metadata, minor bug fix decoding file allocation table entries
* Creating a "CoCo Raw Disk" format and changing the CoCo RS-DOS filesystem to use it
* 1. Adding COCO_RAWDSK to all.cpp
2. Fixing sector order on CoCo raw disk
- Eliminate dependencies on emu.h, replacing most fatalerror calls and floptool's ersatz emu_fatalerror class with standard exception classes
- Use range-based std::string constructors in some methods
- Move filesystem metadata handling to a separate source file
- Eliminate src/emu as an include path for libformats (necessitates kludge in ti99_dsk.cpp)
* Made it possible to add digital controls to axis settings as enables.
* Mix multiple analog controls assigned to an axis setting.
* Added a "reverse" modifier for analog controls (useful with mixing).
* Fixed an issue assigning mouse axes using multiple mouse-like devices
with -nomultimouse.
-frontend: More cleanup:
* Got rid of some abuse of "special main menus".
* Added a helper class for auto-pause menus that don't spawn submenus.
* Got rid of the fake menu that schedules an exit on the first frame.
* Turned the confirm quit prompt into a menu, eliminated one more
special-cased event loop.
* Fixed the confirm quit prompt resuming if you return to emulation if
you weren't paused to begin with.
-bus/centronics: Fixed conflicting DIP locations, reversed order and
inverted polarity for Epson printers.
* Also added the LX-810 (without L suffix) DIP switches for reference -
we don't have a device for this printer yet.
* Refactored Family Trainer and Tap-tap Mat into common base class.
Software list items promoted to working (nes.xml)
---------------------------------------
Super Mogura Tataki!! Pokkun Moguraa (Japan)
* Moved common code for drawing about box, info viewer, and other text box menus to a base class; removed the last of the info viewer logic and the multi-line item hack from the base menu class.
* Added previous/next group navigation for general inputs and plugin input selection menus.
* Moved message catalog logic to lib/util, allowing osd and emu to use localised messages.
* Made the base menu class use the UI manager’s feature for holding session state rather than a static map and mutex.
* Improved menu event handling model, and fixed many issues, particularly with menus behaving badly when hidden/shown.
* Added better support for menus that don’t participate in the usual menu stack, like the menuless sliders and the save/load state menus.
* Made a number of menus refresh state when being shown after being hidden (fixes MT08121 among other issues).
* Fixed indication of mounted slot option in the slot option details menu.
* Improved appearance of background menus when emulation isn't running - draw all menus in the stack, and darken the background menus to make the edges of the active menu clearer.
* Fixed locale issues in -listxml.
-debugger: Made GUI debuggers more uniform.
* Added new memory view features to Win32 debugger.
* Fixed spelling of hexadecimal in Cocoa debugger and added decimal address option.
* Fixed duplicate keyboard shortcut in Cocoa debugger (Shift-Cmd-D was both new device window and 64-bit float format).
* Made keyboard shortcuts slightly more consistent across debuggers.
-plugins: Moved input selection menu and sequence polling code to a common library. Fixed the issue that prevented keyboard inputs being mapped with -steadykey on.
-docs: Started adding some documentation for MAME's internal UI, and updated the list of example front-ends.
-Regenerated message catalog sources. For translators, the new strings are mostly:
* The names of the inputs provided by the OS-dependent layer for things like fullscreen and video features. These show up in the user interface inputs menu.
* The names for automatically generated views. These show up in the video options menu - test with a system with a lot of screens to see more variants.
* The input macro plugin UI.
* A few format strings for analog input assignments.
* A few strings for the about box header.
* ctk2100: preliminary work
* ctk2100: possible keyboard hookup
* ctk2100: hook up rudimentary timers
* ctk2100: add ports and hook up the LCD
* ctk2100: timer tweaks, input tweaks
* ctk2100: fix I/O port reads (stops constant LCD resets)
* gt913: increase key polling rate (fixes ctk2100 test mode)
* ctk2100: add ADCs, clean up and comment some other stuff
* lpc210x: add the PL190 VIC here too while i'm at it
* vic_pl192: fix clang build
* unidasm: add gt913
Changed the default mapping for UI select to not trigger on Alt+Enter
fullscreen toggle. (Fullscreen toggle still doesn't work in menus -
actually fixing that is complicated.)
frontend: Made the about box wrap text properly, made the title and
backtrack menu item always visible, and added a footer with the VCS
revision.
frontend: Don't highlight the favourites and info toolbar buttons if
there's no selection (can happen if filters produce no results). Also
made the info viewer appear even if no info is available - it's less
confusing to see an empty menu than wonder why clicking the button does
nothing.
debugger: Added a register points view to the GUI debuggers, to go with
the breakpoints and watchpoints views.
debugger: Extended [brw]p(clear|(en|dis)able) commands to accept
multiple arguments to perform the same action on multiple
(break|watch|register)points at once. Also made rplist accept a CPU for
showing a single CPU's register points ([bw]plist already support this).
docs: Updated registerpoints debugger commands page, and updated other
pages for latest extensions to syntax.
frontend: Made it possible to cancel a media audit while it's in
progress. Also made the media audit multi-threaded so it's faster.
frontend: Made the DIP switches in the DIP switch preview clickable.
frontend: Made the system and software selection menus leave focus on
the same system when clearing the search rather than jumping to the
first item. Also fixed a couple of bugs in the logic for keeping the
selected item visible.
frontend: Fixed a few places that weren't showing localised system
names.
frontend: Made UI Cancel clear a search in the file manager the same way
it does on the system and sofware selection menus.
frontend: Made it possible for plugin menus to handle UI Cancel more
naturally, backing up to the previous plugin menu rather than dropping
straight back to the list of plugins. Updated the autofire, cheat and
cheatfind plugins, and fixed a few other issues in the cheatfind plugin.
debugger: Made the mount and unmount commands accept instance names as
well as brief instance names. Also updated another page of debugger
documentation.
* Expanded VRC4 CHR bank regs to 9-bit. This functionality is verified on Konami VRC4 hardware as well but is only used by clones (World Hero here).
* Removed board for World Hero. Its VRC4 clone chip is under a glop top but is thought to be identical to Konami's.
* Reimplemented TF1201 (Lethal Weapon) as a VRC4 subclass. Its clone chip is only known to differ by the IRQ reload bit, which it ignores.
* Reimplemented Shui Guan Pipe as a VRC4 subclass. Its clone chip has different PRG banking but is otherwise standard.

Got rid of one of the UI audit inputs. There only needs to be one, and
the options can be presented in the confirmation menu. Two secret
keystrokes is too confusing. Also got rid of the long-obsolete UI
Toggle Debugger input.
Added audit media button to the toolbar so it's a bit less opaque, and
it can be accessed with a mouse/trackball (not just by knowing the key
mapping).
Made default I/O port names localisable.
Made autofire plugin save port fields using the { port, mask, type }
tuple, the same way MAME does. Unfortunately this will break existing
autofire configuration, but it should be more stable going forward.
Added some more UI keys to the default key mappings documentation.
* frontend: Added support for message context to localisations.
* frontend: Added string_view versions of the message lookup functions.
* frontend: Added a few more folder options to the internal UI.
* emu/softlist.cpp: Use more appropriate containers.
* Switched to Python 3 by default - this will become a requirement.
* Updated msgfmt.py for message context support.
* frontend: Show all software item info in the internal UI.
* frontend: Search alternate titles in software selection menu.
* 3rdparty/utf8proc: Updated to v2.6.1 (has several fixes).
* frontend: Added software filters for common info fields.
* frontend: Allow UI manager to hold onto persistent session data.
* frontend: Cache software lists for eight machines.
* frontend: Added support for loading localised system names.
* frontend: Add UI for selecting localised system names.
* Turned `core_file` into an implementation of `random_read_write`.
* Turned PNG errors into a standard error category.
* Added a helper for generating what look like derived classes on-the-fly.
Added comments with V.24 interchange circuit numbers and names to
rs232.h to make the meanings of the abbreviated signal names clearer.
Moved a few slot card classes out of headers and into anonymous
namespaces to reduce compile depedencies and exported symbols.
Transliterated a Korean NES game title.
- Remove opresolv.h from emu.h and some other base headers
- Split legacy floppy image class into a separate file
- Clean up a lot of #includes in src/lib and src/tools/imgtool
- Modified MMC1 base class (SxROM) to have outer bank base/mask to make it extensible by multicarts.
- Implemented two boards, reset-based SxROM and a 2-in-1 by TXC, as proof of concept.
- Marked Operation Wolf games as partially supported due to zapper inputs not working.
- Marked Space Shadow as not supported since it requires the extra buttons on the Bandai Hyper Shot gun.

- Reduced redundant code by making "kasing" device parent class for sglionk/sgboog. The latter are identical save for the extended register/address scrambling.
- Eliminated hosenkan device altogether (mapper 182). It is identical to sglionk (mapper 114).
First major step in splitting up machine classes in NEC PC98 family tree:
* Splits up derivative HWs into own state machine and files (pc98ha.cpp, pc9821.cpp and pc9801_epson.cpp);
* Adds a preliminary uPD4991a parallel RTC, used by pc98ha;
* Fix -26, -86, -118 C-bus sound board dips or jumper settings;
* Fix default sound card for pc9821 (-86) and pc9821ce2 / pc9821cx3 (-118);
* Adds preliminary MAD Factory Otomichan-kai C-bus sound board;
* Adds boilerplate code for C-bus installing board I/Os, avoiding the possible inconvenience of board(s) getting silently unmapped by other installed boards;
* Major refactoring of HW dip switches readouts, using required_ioports instead of scattering things around in PPI hooks;
* Extensive QA rundown, including research on missing features and undumped machines.
pc9801.cpp: Don't passthrough mouse irq frequency when cycle setting is setup too, fixes jastrike mouse input on options menu.
pc9801.cpp: Fix kanji RAM window LR readback, makes telenetm to properly display 8x16 chars on RS and derivative machines.
pc8801.cpp: fixed OPNA RAM readback, allowing SWs to playback ADPCMs properly.

Added more modern generic I/O interfaces with implementation backed by stdio, osd_file and core_file, replacing io_generic. Also replaced core_file's build-in zlib compression with a filter.
unzip.cpp, un7z.cpp: Added option to supply abstract I/O interface rather than filename.
Converted osd_file, core_file, archive_file, chd_file and device_image_interface to use std::error_condition rather than their own error enums.
Allow mounting TI-99 RPK from inside archives.
- Implement video slot and mono graphics video card
- Hook up CIO, SIO, RTC, PIT, SN76489
- Add daisy chain for Z80 devices and hook it up to the PIC
- Add system control ports
Removed support for DirectInput 7 and earlier. It hasn't been tested in
years, and it's not relevant on any supported OS. DirectInput is
effectively finalised at version 8, and is unlikely to get an API update
in the future.
Use more string[_view] and fewer C strings, and tightened up scope of a
few things.
-machine/smc91c9x.cpp adjustments:
* Reset should disable promiscuous mode.
* RCR - handle promiscuous changes, adjust soft reset handling.
* EPH_STATUS should be LINK_OK by default (previous code wouldn't set LINK_OK unless RX_EN is set but LANceGS won't set RX_EN unless LINK_OK is set).
* B0_BANK bits 4-8 are unspecified in the documentation but LANceGS expects a 3 (used in Card detection logic).
* MIR values depend on device type and resets when the mmu resets.
* Reading/writing the data register needs to be aware of 8-bit I/O.
* Calculate FCS.
* Removed WMS OUI filtering hack.
* Changed to use modern poly.h instead of polylgcy.h.
* Moved helper classes into separate voodoo namespace.
* Derived device classes from video_device_interface.
* Split classes so that later versions derive from earlier versions.
* Created device maps to be directly included.
* Redesigned register mapping to use helper classes and delegates.
* Rewrote rasterizers to use C++ templates instead of macros.
* Added logic to compute equations for color/texture combine units.
* Added special generic identity-texel rasterizer cases.
* Removed pipeline stalls on texture and palette changes.
* Removed pipeline stalls on most all parameter changes.
* Generally re-thought and cleaned up logic throughout.
* Parameterized cycle stealing on status reads; updated all existing voodoo consumers to configure it as it was before.
-vidoe/poly.h: Various improvements:
* Exposed poly_array class for broader use.
* Changed poly_array to intelligently determine maximum size.
* Added logic to track multiple "last" instances in poly_array.
* Extended logic to support up to 16m work items.
* Removed MaxPolys parameter from poly_manager template.
* Added Flags parameter to poly_manager template.
* Added POLY_FLAG_NO_CLIPPING flag to remove clipping code when not needed.
* poly_manager now supports a MaxParams value of 0.
* Made paramcount a template parameter for render_* functions.
* Added reset_after_wait() method to be overridden by derived classes.
* Switched to using std:: helpers instead of internal methods.
* Removed useless dependency on screen_device.
* TRACK_POLY_WAITS now produces more complete statistics.
-video/polylgcy.cpp: Removed legacy implementation of polygon renderer.
-machine/gt64xxx.cpp: Prevent lockups by disallowing 0-duration timers.
-machine/pci.cpp: Added support for adding subdevice maps directly.
-emu/video/rgbsse.h: Improved min/max for SSE4.1+ and scale+clamp operations for all.
-emu/vidoe/rgbutil.h: Made palette expansion constexpr and added argbexpand function.
-osd/osdcore.cpp: Changed osd_ticks to use QueryPerformanceCounter on Windows since the mingw std::chrono::high_resolution_clock is anything but.

* mapper 30: only supports the most basic board that doesn't use flashable memory - tested on a dozen or so roms, all working
* add a game each for mappers 29 (Glider), 30 (E.T.), and 31 (2A03Puritans) so there is something in the software lists to actually test against. Glider is discontinued by manufacture, the other two are freely available from their authors.

* Added sliders to layout and animated them
* Sync with upstream. I/O callbacks are now consolidated into a single read callback and a single write callback, with an access type specifier.
* Initial working implementation of YM278B. Most features implemented, except vibrato.
* Implement vibrato and status register flags. Fix envelope rate computation.
* Rename ymfm_interface::external_type to access_class and clean up the fallout.
* Formally replace the old YMF278B engine with the one from ymfm
* Rotated YMF278B outputs into a more logical order.
* Re-evaluted envelope calculations and 2x works better than the weird 15/8 I came up with before. Also changed the way FM resampling is computed to be more precise (and simpler). Turned off extraneous debugging.
* Start of/reset to a null state with no loaded waveforms.
* Fix YM2608 I/O ports.
