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.
- Created new central header "emu.h"; this should be included
by pretty much any driver or device as the first include. This
file in turn includes pretty much everything a driver or device
will need, minus any other devices it references. Note that
emu.h should *never* be included by another header file.
- Updated all files in the core (src/emu) to use emu.h.
- Removed a ton of redundant and poorly-tracked header includes
from within other header files.
- Temporarily changed driver.h to map to emu.h until we update
files outside of the core.
Added class wrapper around tagmap so it can be directly included
and accessed within objects that need it. Updated all users to
embed tagmap objects and changed them to call through the class.
Added nicer functions for finding devices, ports, and regions in
a machine:
machine->device("tag") -- return the named device, or NULL
machine->port("tag") -- return the named port, or NULL
machine->region("tag"[, &length[, &flags]]) -- return the
named region and optionally its length and flags
Made the device tag an astring. This required touching a lot of
code that printed the device to explicitly fetch the C-string
from it. (Thank you gcc for flagging that issue!)
osd_free(). They take the same parameters as malloc() and free().
Renamed mamecore.h -> emucore.h.
New C++-aware memory manager, implemented in emualloc.*. This is a
simple manager that allows you to add any type of object to a
resource pool. Most commonly, allocated objects are added, and so
a set of allocation macros is provided to allow you to manage
objects in a particular pool:
pool_alloc(p, t) = allocate object of type 't' and add to pool 'p'
pool_alloc_clear(p, t) = same as above, but clear the memory first
pool_alloc_array(p, t, c) = allocate an array of 'c' objects of type
't' and add to pool 'p'
pool_alloc_array_clear(p, t, c) = same, but with clearing
pool_free(p, v) = free object 'v' and remove it from the pool
Note that pool_alloc[_clear] is roughly equivalent to "new t" and
pool_alloc_array[_clear] is roughly equivalent to "new t[c]". Also
note that pool_free works for single objects and arrays.
There is a single global_resource_pool defined which should be used
for any global allocations. It has equivalent macros to the pool_*
macros above that automatically target the global pool.
In addition, the memory module defines global new/delete overrides
that access file and line number parameters so that allocations can
be tracked. Currently this tracking is only done if MAME_DEBUG is
enabled. In debug builds, any unfreed memory will be printed at
the end of the session.
emualloc.h also has #defines to disable malloc/free/realloc/calloc.
Since emualloc.h is included by emucore.h, this means pretty much
all code within the emulator is forced to use the new allocators.
Although straight new/delete do work, their use is discouraged, as
any allocations made with them will not be tracked.
Changed the familar auto_alloc_* macros to map to the resource pool
model described above. The running_machine is now a class and contains
a resource pool which is automatically destructed upon deletion. If
you are a driver writer, all your allocations should be done with
auto_alloc_*.
Changed all drivers and files in the core using malloc/realloc or the
old alloc_*_or_die macros to use (preferably) the auto_alloc_* macros
instead, or the global_alloc_* macros if necessary.
Added simple C++ wrappers for astring and bitmap_t, as these need
proper constructors/destructors to be used for auto_alloc_astring and
auto_alloc_bitmap.
Removed references to the winalloc prefix file. Most of its
functionality has moved into the core, save for the guard page
allocations, which are now implemented in osd_alloc and osd_free.
- fixed bug in vtlb code that caused us to lose track of previously
registered fixed page ranges
- fixed MIPS3 behavior that would not clear out invalid page ranges
from the VTLB under certain circumstances
- added support for TLB sizes less than 48 entries
This update changes the way we handle memory allocation. Rather
than allocating in terms of bytes, allocations are now done in
terms of objects. This is done via new set of macros that replace
the malloc_or_die() macro:
alloc_or_die(t) - allocate memory for an object of type 't'
alloc_array_or_die(t,c) - allocate memory for an array of 'c' objects of type 't'
alloc_clear_or_die(t) - same as alloc_or_die but memset's the memory to 0
alloc_array_clear_or_die(t,c) - same as alloc_array_or_die but memset's the memory to 0
All original callers of malloc_or_die have been updated to call these
new macros. If you just need an array of bytes, you can use
alloc_array_or_die(UINT8, numbytes).
Made a similar change to the auto_* allocation macros. In addition,
added 'machine' as a required parameter to the auto-allocation macros,
as the resource pools will eventually be owned by the machine object.
The new macros are:
auto_alloc(m,t) - allocate memory for an object of type 't'
auto_alloc_array(m,t,c) - allocate memory for an array of 'c' objects of type 't'
auto_alloc_clear(m,t) - allocate and memset
auto_alloc_array_clear(m,t,c) - allocate and memset
All original calls or auto_malloc have been updated to use the new
macros. In addition, auto_realloc(), auto_strdup(), auto_astring_alloc(),
and auto_bitmap_alloc() have been updated to take a machine parameter.
Changed validity check allocations to not rely on auto_alloc* anymore
because they are not done in the context of a machine.
One final change that is included is the removal of SMH_BANKn macros.
Just use SMH_BANK(n) instead, which is what the previous macros mapped
to anyhow.
cpu_get_info_* -> device_get_info_*
cpu_set_info_* -> device_set_info_*
cpu_reset -> device_reset
Removed the cputype_get_* macros as they are not necessary.
Removed cpuintrf_init() which is no longer necessary.
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.
context ones (which are going away), the disassembler (which should
have no dependencies on the live CPU), and the validity check.
Removed global token from all pointer-ified CPU cores that don't
have internal read/write callbacks (which still need to reference it).
* 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
* added save state support to the SHARC CPU core
* added save state support to the PowerPC recompiler
* added save state support to the virtual TLB system
