Log Message:
update for SDL audio/video + JIT compiler for x86_64

File Contents

# Content
1 V1.0 (snapshot) - <date>
2 - fixed the problem with Ticks getting incremented on every interrupt, not
3 just 60Hz (e.g. moving the mouse made the caret blink faster)
4 - Unix: integrated JIT compiler for Linux/x86 and FreeBSD/x86
5 - Unix: moved minimum autoconf support to 2.52+
6 - Unix: add large file support for 2+ GB hard disk images
7 - Unix: cleaned up pthread attributes [Brian Johnson]
8 - Unix: fixed floppy problems under Linux
9 - Unix: implemented "ignoresegv" feature on Linux/x86, Linux/ppc, Darwin/ppc
10 - Unix: serial port baud rates are now set correctly
11 - Unix: it is now possible to make the serial drivers pipe their input/output
12 to programs by using a '|' followed by a command line as the modem or
13 printer port setting (instead of a device name like '/dev/ttyS0')
14 [Brian Johnson]
15 - Unix: the option "--config FILE" tells B2 to use a different config file
16 - Unix: new prefs options "dsp" and "mixer" to set the OSS device names
17 instead of the hardcoded '/dev/dsp' and '/dev/mixer'
18 - Unix: new ether prefs option 'tun' to use a TUN/TAP interface. The
19 configure script used can be overriden with "etherconfig"
20 - Unix: SDL audio and video output are now available in option
21 - Unix: port JIT compiler to Linux/x86_64 (AMD64 and EM64T platforms)
22
23 V1.0 (snapshot) - 15.Jan.2002
24 - added support for on-the-fly video resolution and depth switching, and
25 gamma tables
26 - fsave/frestore emulation under AmigaOS and NetBSD/m68k always behaves like
27 a 68882/68040 FPU, eliminating the need for 68060 FPU patches
28 - added support for platform-independant mutexes, used by adb.cpp for
29 thread-safe mouse handling
30 - the TIME_OFFSET constant has been replaced by a (portable) function
31 TimeToMacTime(); file dates in ExtFS should now be correct
32 - ADBInterrupt() is no longer called from the 60Hz interrupt but has its own
33 interrupt flag, potentially increasing the smoothness of mouse movement
34 - ether.cpp: implemented relatively platform-independant "AppleTalk over UDP"
35 mode that doesn't require any special kernel modules or network drivers but
36 can only interconnect instances of Basilisk II; this is enabled by setting
37 "udptunnel" to true
38 - Unix: windowed display mode supports different resolutions and color depths,
39 which can be switched on-the-fly
40 - Unix: Ctrl-F5 grabs mouse in windowed mode (enhanced compatibility with
41 games like flight simulators)
42 - Unix: X11 events are handled as soon as they arrive, outside of the 60Hz
43 video refresh raster
44 - Unix: audio sample rate, bit depth and channel count are adjustable in the
45 MacOS "Sound" control panel
46
47 V0.9 (release 0.9-1) - 31.May 2001
48 - final adjustments for 0.9 release
49
50 V0.9 (snapshot) - 29.May 2001
51 - added help for command line arguments, PrefsInit() now removes all processed
52 options
53 - serial_unix.cpp: input/output_thread_cancel weren't initialized
54 [Kolja Waschk]
55 - Unix: some performance improvements to VOSF screen update code
56 [Brian J. Johnson]
57 - Unix: renewed SIGSEGV support functions. Side effect: configure script
58 cleanups and probable Direct Addressing/VOSF support for other platforms
59 (NetBSD, AIX, OSF/1, Irix) [Gwenole Beauchesne]
60 - Unix: -Ofast option is supplied to MIPSPro compiler [Brian J. Johnson]
61 - Unix: workaround for IRIX pthreads bug in Delay_usec() [Brian J. Johnson]
62 - Unix: FreeBSD configure script cleanups [Michael Alyn Miller]
63 - Unix: ether_linux.cpp moved and renamed to ether_unix.cpp, now also works
64 with the tap driver under FreeBSD [Michael Alyn Miller]

66 - AmigaOS: SCSI buffer type can be selected
67
68 V0.9 (snapshot) - 17.Feb.2001
69 - adapted for cxmon V3.0 which is now the required minimum
70 - UAE cpu: fixed a bug in the memory handlers preventing from correctly
71 updating 15 and 16 bpp displays on big endian systems
72 - Unix: added (experimental) real addressing mode [Gwenole Beauchesne]

95 - BeOS: implemented the "powerrom_cpu" CPU engine for BeOS/PPC that uses the
96 680x0 emulator contained in an Apple PowerMac ROM to run Basilisk II (ca.
97 4x speed improvement); when running on a BeBox, a PCI PowerMac ROM image is
98 needed to use this (the path name of the ROM file can be set with the
99 preferences item "powerrom", default is "PowerROM")
100 - include/macos_util.h: defines FOURCC() macro to make MacOS-like
101 four-character-codes, replaced most instances of multi-character constants
102 in the sources by this macro to avoid compiler warnings
103 - cdrom.cpp: implemented Status(6) call (return format list) [Landon Fuller]

412
413 V0.4 (alpha) - 15.Apr.1999
414 - Added some literature references to the source files
415 - Modularized CPU engine: the interface of the CPU engine is now defined in
416 cpu_emulation.h, so different CPU engines can be substituted more easily
417 [as requested by Bill Huey]
418 - uae_cpu/gencpu.c: duplicate_carry() was missing in SUB and NBCD routines
419 - Unix: added autoconf stuff

421 [Daniel Thompson]
422
423 V0.4 (alpha) - 11.Apr.1999
424 - cdrom.cpp: find_hfs_partition() bailed out too soon when finding no "PN"
425 signature [Lauri Pesonen]
426 - prefs.cpp: prefs file allows more whitespace between keyword and value
427 [Lauri Pesonen]
428 - prefs.cpp: remodeled to allow platform-specific prefs items (list of
429 keywords is kept in table)
430 - video.cpp/cscSetEntries: luminance mapping uses integer instead of floating
431 point math
432 - video_*.cpp: on most systems, the frame buffer is allocated with two
433 additional lines as some ROM versions seem to write behind the frame buffer
434 proper
435 - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: defined X86_ASSEMBLY on i386/GCC systems
436 - BeOS/Unix/sysdeps.h: redefined get/put_mem() functions to take and return
437 an uae_u32 value, added some more x86 optimizations
438 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp/kSERDBaudRate: rates between 57600 and 65535 result in
439 a rate of 57600 [Lauri Pesonen]
440
441 V0.4 (alpha) - 10.Apr.1999
442 - upgraded to UAE 0.8.8 CPU, CPU is now built with "gencpu", UAE sources moved
443 to "uae" directory
444 - new preferences item "rom" to specify the path of the ROM file
445 - new preferences item "ether" for Ethernet driver
446 - new INTFLAG_ETHER interrupt flag
447 - main_*.cpp: added ChoiceAlert()
448 - main_*.cpp: disabled UAE FPU (as it is buggy)
449 - serial_*.cpp: device_name is now a "const char *"
450 - serial_*.cpp: implemented monitor (#define MONITOR 1 to activate)
451 - *.h: changed "#ifdef _XXX_H_" to "#ifdef XXX_H" as symbols starting with an
452 underscore are reserved
453 - rom_patches.cpp: icon data moved to sony/disk/cdrom.cpp
454 - rom_patches.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
455 - slot_rom.cpp: removed unnecessary a0/a1 save/restore from drivers
456 - serial_defs.h: added error codes
457 - AmigaOS: the Kickstart ROM is no longer used to redirect NIL pointer
458 accesses as this crashes some machines (especially 68040-based); a scratch
459 memory block is used instead
460 - AmigaOS/serial_amiga.cpp: implemented
461 - AmigaOS/ether_amiga.cpp: implemented
462 - AmigaOS/sys_amiga.cpp: SysAddSerialPrefs() now returns real defaults
463 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: when the memory for the Mac RAM and ROM cannot be
464 allocated, an error message is displayed (instead of crashing)
465 - AmigaOS/main_amiga.cpp: interrupts are disabled during execution of an
466 EMUL_OP routine
467 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the CTRL-C handler checks for pending AmigaDOS
468 operations
469 - AmigaOS/asm_support.asm: the interrupt signal exception is rethrown when the
470 interrupt level in EmulatedSR gets lowered while interrupts are pending
471 - BeOS: switched from project files to Be supplied makefile system
472 - BeOS/ether_beos.cpp: implemented
473 - BeOS/serial_beos.cpp: modem status of parallel device is returned as
474 (dsrEvent | dcdEvent | ctsEvent)

478 - Unix/serial_unix.cpp: serdtDCE is set in PrimeIn()/PrimeOut()
479 - Unix/video_x.cpp: pressing F12 and q will quit Basilisk II in DGA mode
480 (useful when it crashed)
481

485 for window mode or "scr" for full-screen mode
486 - added documentation of preferences file format to README
487
488 V0.2 (alpha) - 11.Mar.1999
489 - tested with ROM versions 19 and 26

493 virtual addressing mode, the Mac frame buffer layout now has to be specified
494 in MacFrameLayout (video.h)
495 - Unix/video_x.cpp: the "screen" prefs item is now read to select window mode
496 (with a specified window size) or DGA mode
497 - Unix/video_x.cpp: DGA mode supports 15, 16 and 32 bit modes (packed 24 bit
498 pixels don't work)
499 - Unix/Makefile.linux: added -D_REENTRANT to compiler flags
500
