is now separate from runtime device state. I have larger plans
for devices, so there is some temporary scaffolding to hold
everything together, but this first step does separate things
out.
There is a new class 'running_device' which represents the
state of a live device. A list of these running_devices sits
in machine->devicelist and is created when a running_machine
is instantiated.
To access the configuration state, use device->baseconfig()
which returns a reference to the configuration.
The list of running_devices in machine->devicelist has a 1:1
correspondance with the list of device configurations in
machine->config->devicelist, and most navigation options work
equally on either (scanning by class, type, etc.)
For the most part, drivers will now deal with running_device
objects instead of const device_config objects. In fact, in
order to do this patch, I did the following global search &
replace:
const device_config -> running_device
device->static_config -> device->baseconfig().static_config
device->inline_config -> device->baseconfig().inline_config
and then fixed up the compiler errors that fell out.
Some specifics:
Removed device_get_info_* functions and replaced them with
methods called get_config_*.
Added methods for get_runtime_* to access runtime state from
the running_device.
DEVICE_GET_INFO callbacks are only passed a device_config *.
This means they have no access to the token or runtime state
at all. For most cases this is fine.
Added new DEVICE_GET_RUNTIME_INFO callback that is passed
the running_device for accessing data that is live at runtime.
In the future this will go away to make room for a cleaner
mechanism.
Cleaned up the handoff of memory regions from the memory
subsystem to the devices.
CVS:
- hook up speech cpu
- get rid of "temporary" code which hardwire ctl & pdc writes
tms5110:
- Implement ctl port input/output for status reads.
- Input/output is switched by clocking pdc after a TALK STATUS command.
- update drivers to support new tms5110_ctl_r
Please note: regression testing is in progress, but the first round
of glaring regressions have already been taken care of. That said,
there is likely to be a host of regressions as a result of this
change.
Also note: There are still a few rough edges in the interfaces. I
will try to clean them up systematically once the basic system is
working.
All sound chips are now proper devices.
Merged the sound chip interface into the device interface,
removing any differences (such as the whole ALIASing concept).
Modified every sound chip in the following ways:
* updated to match the device interface
* reduced read/write handlers down to the minimal number
* added the use of get_safe_token() for ensuring correctness
* other minor cleanup
Removed the custom sound device. The additional work to just make
custom sound cases into full devices is minimal, so I just converted
them all over to be actual devices.
Vastly simplified the sound interfaces, removing the ghastly
sndti_* business and moving everyone over to using tags for
sound identity. sndintrf, like cpuintrf, is now just a header
file with no implementation.
Modified each and every driver that references a sound chip:
* all memory maps explicitly reference the targeted device via
AM_DEVREAD/AM_DEVWRITE/AM_DEVREADWRITE
* 16-bit and 32-bit accesses to 8-bit chips no longer use
trampoline functions but instead use the 8-bit AM_DEVREAD/WRITE
macros
* all references to sound chips are now done via tags
* note that these changes are brute force, not optimal; in many
cases drivers should grab pointers to devices in MACHINE_START
and stash them away
necessary to remove 12 of the final 14 references to the global
Machine. The remaining 2 are in fatalerror() and logerror(), which
are both local to mame.c, so Machine is now fully static.

Subject: [patch] Make Machine static followup
Hi mamedev,
This incremental patch to my last patch undoes the change that caches
the ppu2c0x videorom. I changed the code back to how it behaved
originally, using an existing machine on the chip struct to eliminate
the one troublesome Machine reference.

Subject: [patch] Make Machine static!
Hi mamedev,
This large patch completes the removal of the use of Machine
throughout MAME. It does so primarily by adding machine, device or
space to various apis and modifying the callers, but for some
remaining cases it adds a new api, mame_get_running_machine(), which
will be called instead. There are only 14 uses of this api currently,
and that number should drop over time.
There are a few changes of note:
1. 6821pia.c. I attached machine to the 'device' structure. I'm
working on converting this to a proper device, but that change isn't
ready.
2. fddebug.c. I added a proper header so that the apis won't get
accidentally converted to static again.
3. scsi.c. I added a machine to SCSIInstance.
4. system16.c. I modified sys16_patch_code to take an array of
patches.
4. custom.h. I added the owning sound device to the reset/stop
routines as well as the token. Note that passing only the device
would require exposing the internals of custom_sound, as the token
passed is not the device token, but the token returned from the
CUSTOM_START routine. Better ideas here are welcome.
4. ppc2c0x.c. To avoid changing more interfaces, the init routine
saves the videorom location rather than looks it up each time.
I tried to choose what I felt was the natural parameter for an api,
rather than always pass machine, but in some cases I used machine to
limit the number of additional changes. Some additional cleanup here
is probably warranted, I'll look into that later once I'm recovered
from this two-week project.

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.
state_save_combine_module_and_tag() function in favor of passing
the tag when registering. Revisited all save state item registrations
and changed them to use the tag where appropriate.
I did not do much to the following files because I did not know the best way to name them.
aicadsp.h
sid.h
sidenvel.h
sidvoice.h
ymdeltat.h
I did not update structures only used in the src\emu\sound\*.c files. They are only used locally in the file so they were not worth the effort.
- cvs games: according to PCBInfos speech chip is TMS5100.
Changed driver to use TMS5100 and "game system operational" now sounds more natural
- removed sound/m58817.*
- added support for multiple coefficients maps to tms5110.*
- added coefficient maps for TMS5100 and M58817 from documented sources to tms5110r.c
- fixed interpolation factors (see tms5110r.c for reason)
- made lattice calculation precision 9bit
- added support for READBIT and LOADADDRESS commands to tms5110.c
- more changes in line with various patents
