Hi mamedev,
This is a resubmit of my last driver_data patch. It should be
non-controversial, although it contains some additional whitespace
cleanup in the affected files.

* split I/O devices from video ones
* converted all taito drivers to use these I/O devices
* removed old I/O code from taitoic.c
* added preliminary tc0180vcu video device

Subject: Core for PIC 16c62x series of processors
To: submit@mamedev.org
Hello,
this patch contains a core for the PIC 16c62x series of processors.
It has been made starting from the pic16c5x that is already present.
This version stil misses the various internal devices, however the
opcodes and i/o ports work, and it is enough to run the emulation of
the security pics used with the gd-roms.
Bye,
Samuele Zannoli
* fixed 053936 init which was giving problems to f1gp2 (in debug build only, apparently)
* removed banptr preventing proper save states in rockrage.c: now save works fine
* added driver data struct and saves states to f1gp.c, fastlane.c, flkatck.c, hcastle.c, labyrunr.c and suprslam.c
* fixed 056832 device start order to avoid wrong settings for layer 0. updated asterix.c and moo.c to use the device implementation now that it's working correctly.
* added driver data struct to 88games.c, combatsc.c and rockrage.c
* added driver data struct and save states to battlnts.c, bladestl.c, crshrace.c and contra.c
* renamed combasc to combatsc now that clones can have longer names
* moved k056800 sound device to emu/sound and removed the old code (mame/machine/konamiic.c )
* updated gticlub.c, hornet.c, nwk-tr.c, ultrsprt.c and zr107.c to use this implementation
* fixed various small (and not so small) problems in konicdev.c
* as a result Konami 007342, 007420, 052109, 052160 and 051316 devices are now working and 88games.c, battlnts.c, bladestl.c and rockrage.c have been updated to use them
In particular, device-fied Konami 007121, 051733 and 053251 work fine and combatsc.c, contra.c, crshrace.c, f1gp.c, fastlane.c, flkatck.c, hcastle.c, labyrunr.c and suprslam.c have been converted to use the new code.
Side notes:
* chips which have their own tilemap in MAME (e.g. 056832 and 052109) are not working yet, and other chips cannot be fully tested because they're used together with these... it's still wip
* some cleanup is in order (especially for interfaces), once I get the remaining chips to working state
* converting the drivers above, I noticed that f1gp2 was only using half of the k053936 regs: this is now fixed and, even if I don't know of any visible improvements, now there are definitely less unmapped writes logged by the debugger ;)
Added driver data struct and save states to: cbasebal.c, chinsan.c, mitchell.c and quasar.c
Not to be mentioned: I also removed use of memory_set_bankptr from CPS1 sound banking and renamed a couple of rallyx.c constants to be less generic
Out of whatsnew: Unfortunately, I was unable to make both malzak and p2000t (in MESS) to work without a small kludge, clearly documented in the source. I plan to further investigating the problem once I manage to merge the other 505x variants (later)
* added saves to 6522via.c. this fixes problems of gameplan.c and trvquest.c games with -autosave
* added driver data struct and save states to toratora.c and sf.c
* enable GAME_SUPPORTS_SAVE flag to dday.c because some of the core changes have fixed the sound problem at loading
* added a couple of comments about header inclusions
Also, added driver data struct and save states to laserbas.c, laserbat.c, lastfght.c, lazercmd.c and lemmings.c
Finally, added driver data struct to lasso.c
Added driver data struct to jackal.c
out of the whatsnew, a couple of remarks:
- rallyx and nrallyx might require a separate driver data struct to deal with namco_soundregs, but I'll take care of this eventually (if really needed)
- jackal does not properly save the work ram banks atm, hence no SUPPORTS_SAVE flag, but I keep looking for a clean solution to the problem
Added driver data struct to pipedrm.c and added devices to gameplan.c driver data struct (to remove a few cputag calls)
Also, removed a couple of memory_set_bankptr that I had forgotten (buggychl.c & homedata.c)
Also, added driver data struct to: alpha68k.c, amspdwy.c, gng.c, gunsmoke.c, hotblock.c
Finally, removed a couple of memory_set_bankptr I hadn't noticed in ddrible.c and gberet.c

To: submit@mamedev.org
Cc: atariace@hotmail.com
Hi mamedev,
This patch is a resubmit of my earlier patch to have mappy and zaxxon
store their state in driver_data. It extends the patch to toypop
(which uses some mappy code), and also converts cabal which I also did
some time ago. cabal.h and toypop.h are new header files.
~aa
Added driver data struct to fuukifg2.c and fuukifg3.c (no save states yet due to anonymous timers)
Also, added more devices to dkong driver data (to minimize # of cputag_xxxx calls)
As a side note, now drgnbowl (one of the worst game ever) supports saves! enjoy :-P
Unfortunately, if you load a save state too early the game starts with no sound. For the moment, no SUPPORT_SAVE flag, but the game goes in my list of drivers which needs a second look. Feel free to step up and fix saves, if you like

Added save states to 2mindril.c, ashnojoe.c, bigfghtr.c, bublbobl.c, cchance.c, champbwl.c, missb2.c
Removed use of memory_set_bankptr where possible (in the drivers above and in angelkds.c)
i.e. some Taito love :)
as usual, drivers with only save state added also have almost complete driver_data struct, but the missing items do not affect saves (generic palette/sprite ram is automatically saved)
Out of whatsnew: I also added driver_data struct to these drivers (and to bombjack.c & blktiger.c as well) BUT, as in bionicc.c, some memory pointers (spriteram, paletteram or nvram) are commented out due to use of generic handlers
Out of whatsnew: this driver also has 99% of driver data stored in the struct.
it still misses paletteram16, which currently uses a generic handler(and hence does not fit the struct approach), but I wanted save states so much for this game that I commit it anyway :-)
Side-notes (not worth mention):
* I fear we were missing a local static array in 1942 save states (now it is saved)
* I haven't found a better way to configure 1943 banks than to split the 0x4000 bank into 4 pieces. can anyone come up with a better approach?

Well here is some initial rom loading, gfx decode, palette decode.
I haven't mapped the CPUs yet, but I imagine it will end up using mostly
the home data code in the end (although that seems to have game specific
code for a lot of games anyway, so there are probably some issues with
that driver)
You can check this in for now, and it can be returned to later.
Types are pretty much unified now.
Multiply operations are handled by eminline.h.
Divide operations were just silly in macros.
64/32-bit combination/extraction macros moved to osdcomm.h and renamed.
Also fixed compile errors in recent 68k changes.
- Added working PMMU address translation (not feature complete, but sufficient

Subject: [patch] "Regularize" some interfaces in MAME
Hi mamedev,
This patch adjusts the code in a few places to be more regular in it
object approach. It recognizes five idioms.
1. device_configs should be passed const. dsp56k.h took a non-const
device_config for no particular reason, necessitating casting where
used. A few other places cast to non-const, in most cases
unnecessarily.
2. running_machines should be passed non-const. A few places used
const in different ways on running_machines, instead of the idiomatic
non-const running_machine.
3. Eliminate passing running_machine explicitly where it can be
computed. esrip.c, m37710.c, sfbonus.c had cases where the machine
could easily be eliminated.
4. Pass the object machine/config first. In some cases this makes
the interface object oriented, in some cases it simply makes it more
idiomatic with the rest of MAME.
5. Prefer (screen, bitmap, cliprect) to (machine, bitmap, cliprect).
Fully implementing this would be a large patch, this patch simply does
it for the one core 'device', tms9928a.c.
Namco custom IDs where appropriate.
Added clocks to the Namco 06xx in anticipation of improved
device interconnection.
Added new file devtempl.h which can be used to generate the
DEVICE_GET_INFO function. Updated all the Namco I/O devices
to use this.
Updated galaga driver to use computed video timing.
Updated polepos and bosco drivers to use the new 52xx sound
emulation, wiring up the output through the discrete mixer that
Derrick had already plumbed but left disabled.
This required several MB88xx changes/fixes:
- internal timer support now works; prescaler is guessed based
on Pole Position sample playback frequency
- external counter support works
- a basic mechanism for reading serial input has been added; it
is not sufficient for a full implementation, but good enough
to sample the SI pin at startup
- fixed TSTS/TSTV to clear their respective flags
- fixed CI and CYI to compute imm-reg instead of reg-imm
- added masking of the PA register upon RTI/RTS to prevent bogus
PC values
the information needed to connect to the CPU and other devices
specified in the definition.
Updated drivers to use this new device.
(I notice that the bosco shoot sound no longer changes pitch during
another explosion. Not sure if this was fixed prior or if the
recent device-ification cleaned something up....)
Converted Namco 51xx and 53xx into proper devices. The MB84xx is not
yet emulated, but is now present.
Converted 51xx and 53xx interfaces to use the devcb system for
port I/O callbacks.
Dig Dug is known to be somewhat broken at the moment.
and thief drivers.
Bunch of improvements to the Status system emulation. Correct
video timing, hooked up TMS9927, corrected colors, etc. Still
some work to do.
New games
=========
Status Blackjack
Status Fun Casino
The eepromdev.* files are the device impementation for the serial eeproms
The i2cmemdev.* files are the device impementation for the i2c memory
These aren't currently hooked up
I'm committing this so that the Naomi changes don't accidentally get applied. The idea seems good, but they conflict with the current driver and I'd rather not have them accidentally slipping in and breaking things just yet.
* Added source file konamipt.h to unify Konami inputs where possible (e.g. most 80s-90s games were using basically the same coinage settings and joystick inputs).
* While at it, verified all 0x00 coinage effects in drivers which now use konamipt.h (fixing a few mistakes: hexion, mikie, crimfgtj...).
* Added finalizb service coin. Removed roadf coin4 & asterix coin3 (neither used by the games nor present in service mode).
* Fixed gberetb coin inputs (they were switched).
* Added port_condition to hcrash so that brake appears only when present in the chosen cabinet.
* Cleaned up mystwarr.c & moo.c input handlers.
- derived clocks where possible
- complete memory maps from the schematics
- hooked up proper sound command latching
- reimplemented 6802-based ADPCM samples for the bootlegs
- merged memory maps
- extended NVRAM to the full RAM range (according to schematics)
- created common include file and modified drivers to use it instead of explicit externs
Done:
- AGA palette
- AGA bitplane data fetching
- support for up to 8 standard bitplanes
- HAM8 mode
To do (for devs):
- inputs (buttons/coins are connected as CD32 pad, current implementation (copied from WinUAE) doesn't work, help is welcome)
- sprites (current implementation is incomplete - see CD32 logo)
- incorrect hstart/hstop values in CD32 logo, lsrquiz & lsrquiz2

OK, here we go so far. Layouts for all the games that have a simple one-input shifter. Except
Turbo, because I'll need to update the whole file, which will take a little more work.
And below is the rest of the games that have shifters, but use a separate input for each gear,
so something different will need to be done.
There are also six games that use a simple shifter, but the button isn't set to toggle. So to
play the game, you hold the button for low gear, then let go for high gear. Not sure if you
wanted to change these or not, so I just included the layout file for now.

Some of these sets might not be available, they're based off operator manuals, so should be accurate. The sets which are not available will be disabled once it's been firmly established exactly which ones they are I'm not 100% sure.
No credit wanted / anonymous submission
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
