What works:
* HP85A machine with 16K of RAM
* Capricorn CPU works
* Keyboard works (with minor issues)
* CRT text / graphics modes work (correct speed is not emulated yet so service ROM complaints)
* BASIC is usable
What is missing (and I'll have hopefully working soon):
* HW timers
* Beeper
* Integral printer
* DC100 cassette drive
* Extension ROMs
* I/O modules (especially the HPIB interface so that we can hook up floppy drives)
* Other models in the family (e.g. HP86)
create a uPD78C11 derived CPU type for this purpose, with internal ROM map
use internal ROM map for other uPD78C10 chips as it's always present.
add missing NO_DUMP definitions to various games using C-Chips with correct size etc.
pump megablast through the device code as really all it ever does is bank the c-chip window and test the RAM.
* Implemented front panel mode switches/LEDs and reset switch
* Added skeleton bus for "universal" slots and connected control lines
(nw) Default keyboard mapping is annoying because left shift, Z and X
are used both for typing into the TTY and switching program bank. You're
better off changing the mapping to make it less annoying or using a
socket and talking to it with telnet.
* Renamed to MCS-40.
* Emulated 8-clock instruction cycle, interruptible at any point.
* Converted TEST input to an input line.
* Added SYNC and CM output lines.
* Added support for 4040 CY output, logical operations, extended registers, ROM banking and disassembly.
* Made I/O space mapping more flexible to support the variety of peripherals available.
* Notable missing features are 4040 interrupt and halt, and "program memory" space.
* This turns the current state save feature to a menu; one can still press 0-9, but you can also browse a menu when loading and saving state
* Fixed some issues requested by Vas Crabb
* Updated state menu to support arbitrary character slots
* WIP, transitioned 'entry_char' to std::string
Still need to address Joystick and FR keyboard concerns
* Reimplemented state save support with joystick buttons
* Changed the state menu to be "code driven" rather than "character driven"
When the menu is displayed, it will look at the filenames, and translate them to a visual representation as per the user's locale
* Vas feedback

* Updated state menu to support arbitrary character slots
sound board, completing the tromba circuit
(nw) I'm not sure whether the model works properly or not, but in the
circuit where it's used, I don't think it can work properly with the
current TTL output model. A capacitor is charged by the Q output of a
74LS74 flipflop (U3A) until the voltage passes the Schmitt trigger's
threshold, causing it to reset the flipflop. However, the positive
trigger voltage of the Schmitt trigger is 1.6V, but our TTL output model
has a high output voltage of 1.0V (see nl_base.cpp:89). I realise the
simplified model of TTL logic with high impedance inputs and outputs
behaving as though thery're loaded is convenient and fast to simulate,
but it's not detailed enough for applications like this where
7400-series chips are used in analog circuitry. This is what held me up
last time I tried adding a netlist for this sound board.
- OPENMP refactored. All OPENMP operations are now templatized in pomp.h
- We don't need thread-safe priority queue. Event code updating analog
outputs now runs outside the parallel code.
(nw)
* Tromba (trumpet) sound is not working - requires Schmitt trigger device
* Connecting cassa (bass drum) swamps other instruments so it's disconnected for now
* Mixing melody sound with speech/SFX is not done in netlist (should be)
* Relative levels of melody/speech/SFX are probably still wrong
(nw) A good test case for this is the Money Money driver (monymony).
There's a bit of buzzing on this one as well. The problem with the
cassa could be caused by running into non-ideal characteristics of opams
again (the LM3900 seems to ignore the V+ value supplied to it). When
the netlist library gets Schmitt trigger support, the tromba can be
completed. Unfortunately, the tromba is a key part of the
characteristic sound of these boards, so you really notice when it's
lacking.
(nw) It doesn't work quite right yet. The "Hammer" and "Pest" sounds
are generated by free-running 555/556 timers and gated with LM324
applifiers. For whatever reason, the netlist system produces a kind of
buzzing from the "Hammer" circuit when it's supposed to be suppressed,
and it doesn't think the pest sound should be suppressed completely so
you can always hear it at a low level in the background. The "Cheese"
circuit is a bit weird - either they're using the base-emitter junction
of a 2SC945 as a signal diode, or there's an error in the schematic
(collector is shown unconnected). Connecting this part of the circuit
causes the netlist system to hang, so R2/R3/C8/Q2 are not connected for
now.
* move rarely-used output and pty interfaces out of emu.h
* consolidate and de-duplicate forward declarations, also remove some obsolete ones
* clean up more #include guard macros
* scope down a few more things
(nw) Everyone, please keep forward declarations for src/emu in src/emu/emufwd.h -
this will make it far easier to keep them in sync with declarations than having
them scattered through all the other files.
The core changes are:
* Short name, full name and source file are no longer members of device_t, they are part of the device type
* MACHINE_COFIG_START no longer needs a driver class
* MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED_CLASS is no longer necessary
* Specify the state class you want in the GAME/COMP/CONS line
* The compiler will work out the base class where the driver init member is declared
* There is one static device type object per driver rather than one per machine configuration
Use DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE or DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to declare device type.
* DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE forward-declares teh device type and class, and declares extern object finders.
* DECLARE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS is for devices classes in namespaces - it doesn't forward-declare the device type.
Use DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE or DEFINE_DEVICE_TYPE_NS to define device types.
* These macros declare storage for the static data, and instantiate the device type and device finder templates.
The rest of the changes are mostly just moving stuff out of headers that shouldn't be there, renaming stuff for consistency, and scoping stuff down where appropriate.
Things I've actually messed with substantially:
* More descriptive names for a lot of devices
* Untangled the fantasy sound from the driver state, which necessitates breaking up sound/flip writes
* Changed DECO BSMT2000 ready callback into a device delegate
* Untangled Microprose 3D noise from driver state
* Used object finders for CoCo multipak, KC85 D002, and Irem sound subdevices
* Started to get TI-99 stuff out of the TI-990 directory and arrange bus devices properly
* Started to break out common parts of Samsung ARM SoC devices
* Turned some of FM, SID, SCSP DSP, EPIC12 and Voodoo cores into something resmbling C++
* Tried to make Z180 table allocation/setup a bit safer
* Converted generic keyboard/terminal to not use WRITE8 - space/offset aren't relevant
* Dynamically allocate generic terminal buffer so derived devices (e.g. teleprinter) can specify size
* Imporved encapsulation of Z80DART channels
* Refactored the SPC7110 bit table generator loop to make it more readable
* Added wrappers for SNES PPU operations so members can be made protected
* Factored out some boilerplate for YM chips with PSG
* toaplan2 gfx
* stic/intv resolution
* Video System video
* Out Run/Y-board sprite alignment
* GIC video hookup
* Amstrad CPC ROM box members
* IQ151 ROM cart region
* MSX cart IRQ callback resolution time
* SMS passthrough control devices starting subslots
I've smoke-tested several drivers, but I've probably missed something. Things I've missed will likely blow up spectacularly with failure to bind errors and the like. Let me know if there's more subtle breakage (could have happened in FM or Voodoo).
And can everyone please, please try to keep stuff clean. In particular, please stop polluting the global namespace. Keep things out of headers that don't need to be there, and use things that can be scoped down rather than macros.
It feels like an uphill battle trying to get this stuff under control while more of it's added.

- Create device_palette_interface, which takes over most functionality from palette_device except for the initialization/decoding routines and RAM interface.
- Update screen_device and device_gfx_interface to use a device_palette_interface object rather than a palette_device. This necessitates slight alterations to a few drivers and devices.
- Modify v9938 and v9958 to use the new device_palette_interface rather than a subdevice. This entails breaking a cyclic dependency between device_video_interface and screen_device for this case.

* tee allows two peripherals to be connected in parallel
* glinkhle is an RS232 (9600 8N1) adaptor
* bitsock sends raw assert/release line signals to/from a bitbanger device
* monospkr is a speaker connected between tip/ring in parallel and sleeve
* stereospkr is two speakers: left across tip and sleeve, right across ring and sleeve
Use glinkhle to make emulated calculators talk with cooked sockets, e.g.

* Make device_creator a variable template and get rid of the ampersands
* Remove screen.h and speaker.h from emu.h and add where necessary
* Centralise instantiations of screen and speaker finder templates
* Add/standardise #include guards in many hearers
* Remove many redundant #includes
* Order #includesr to help catch headers that can't be #included alone
(nw) This changes #include order to be prefix, unit header if applicable
then other stuff roughly in order from most dependent to least dependent
library. This helps catch headers that don't #include things that they
use.
* Remove fake interrupts and rewrite coin handling
* Use correct CPU type
* Use screen raw parameters
* Use generic 8x8x1 gfx layout
* Update ROM filenames
- Use tilemap system to draw background/foreground characters (and use
generic gfx_8x8x2_planar layout)
- Add mario and dkong3 bootlegs running on extended hardware (color
PROMs for those haven't been dumped, using the PROMs from the original
currently)
- Update and correct dip switches
- Document tile attribute RAM and sprite RAM layout bits
- Use screen raw parameters
- Add connector layout
- Update TODO list
- Update ROM filenames
New working driver:
-------------------
Donkey Kong 3 (bootleg on Ambush hardware)
- Moved 9312 and 74279 to ttl macro library.
- Renamed TTL_9312_* to DM9312. This is more appropriate.
- Fixed a number of warnings from latest ubuntu clang-5.0.
* Use size_t for sizes and <algorithm> for algorithms
* Fix up some files that were getting linked into multiple libs
* Add missing virtual method to sh2 peripheral class
* Put shortname in driver struct for locality
* Use shared pointers in config LRU cache for safety
Per Vas' request. If the compile fails for you (i'm thinking osx and
windows native debuggers here in particular), add '#include "emu.h"'
as first include of the cpp files that fail.
Due to our use of precompilation and forced inclusion, emu.h must be
included as the very first non-comment thing we do if we want to be
sure msvc compiles are identical to gcc/clang ones. Doing it directly
instead of through an include increases the correctness probability by
a magnitude.
- Created devices for the galaxy games carts (EEPROM + Flash + PIC) and the slot(s)

Tourniquet, BrianT, coolmod, Smitdogg, The Dumping Union, Luca Elia]
* Put Amiga keyboard implementations in a namespace
* Factor out matrix keys to a common module shared by A500/A1200
* Make new German matrix based on US matrix with Alt-chars hooked up
* Remove outdated comment
- Create EFO, Promat, Terminal, Wing projects to help reduce the weight of libmisc
- Eliminate Veltmeijer Automaten project (only two games by this company are in MAME, and one actually on Excellent System hardware)
* Added m146805 and m68hc05 to unidasm
* Made opcode tables configurable in m6805_base_device, provided tables for HMOS, CMOS and HC families
* Implemented MUL instruction, made unimplemented STOP and WAIT raise fatal error
* Added skeleton MC68HC05C4 with RAM and ROM in correct locations in memory map
Device implementations (all cpp files in netlist/devices) now should
only include nl_base.h.
Netlist implementation sources should only include "net_lib.h".
Refactored netlist.h and netlist.cpp to avoid namespace congestion in
netlist.h.
Fixed VC2015 build. (nw)
* should be #included after other headers and after optionally #defining VERBOSE
* usage samples in z80scc.cpp and m68705.cpp
68705: add lots of logging to help trace issues
m68705: expose more more internal registers through the state interface
* shows contents of registers that can't be read by program code
i8251: make receive more reliable clean up a little
zorba: meat on the bones
* create emulated keyboard device
- 88 of 96 matrix keys identified, 6 of 8 DIP switches identified, 3 of 6 outputs identified
* connect IEEE-488, RS232 and Centronics ports
* hook up all IRQ sources and connect PIT to UARTs
* more notes
osborne1, gladiatr: use input changed member (nw)
- refactored reverse polish notation evaluator into own source files.
- added function parameter to current and voltage sources VS and CS.
You can now use those to e.g. produce a sine wave.
- Changed code to allow devices to optionally be treated as dynamic or
timestepping devices.
[Couriersud]
* remove non-obvious mcu_status_r and semaphore_r members and move to drivers (varies by system)
* slap fight functionality can be safely folded into base class so do so
* remove leftover crud from driver state classes
qix.cpp, bub68705, changela: use new MC68705P3 core
* Moved 68705 devices into their own file.
* Made P3, P5 and U3 variants and made them load bootstrap ROMs.
* Implemented EPROM control (write is stubbed out with a logerror).
* Implemented differences for open drain I/O ports.
(nw) Base device with peripherals should really derive from the 6805
device directly, not the 68705 devices, as I/O ports are present on mask
devices (e.g. 6805P2). All drivers and devices that were using
M68705_NEW have been changed to M68705P5 - someone who knows the drivers
better should fix them up.
- Conversion of the Cedar Magnet board from a base device class to a mix-in interface
- Emulate EFO ZSU as main variant of the Cedar Magnet sound board
- Hook up ZSU1 to Skill Flight and Phantom Ship
- Modernize ZSU soundlatch/IRQ mechanism
- More hardware notes (nw)
- Various associated code cleanups (nw)
into these files as well. The code uses <cfenv> which is part of c++11
standard. Non-standard glib extensions are currently only used on linux
and (i386 or x86_64). (nw)
we've been sitting on this for a while, progress was shown a few years ago, but is apparently lost. Smitdogg should be able to clarify the exact part numbers, they're not readable in the pictures.
