$Id: HISTORY,v 1.1055 2005/11/25 22:48:36 debug Exp $
20051031 Adding disassembly support for more ARM instructions (clz,
smul* etc), and adding a hack to support "new tiny" pages
for StrongARM.
20051101 Minor documentation updates (NetBSD 2.0.2 -> 2.1, and OpenBSD
3.7 -> 3.8, and lots of testing).
Changing from 1-sector PIO mode 0 transfers to 128-sector PIO
mode 3 (in dev_wdc).
Various minor ARM dyntrans updates (pc-relative loads from
within the same page as the instruction are now treated as
constant "mov").
20051102 Re-enabling instruction combinations (they were accidentally
disabled).
Dyntrans TLB entries are now overwritten using a round-robin
scheme instead of randomly. This increases performance.
Fixing a typo in file.c (thanks to Chuan-Hua Chang for
noticing it).
Experimenting with adding ATAPI support to dev_wdc (to make
emulated *BSD detect cdroms as cdroms, not harddisks).
20051104 Various minor updates.
20051105 Continuing on the ATAPI emulation. Seems to work well enough
for a NetBSD/cats installation, but not OpenBSD/cats.
Various other updates.
20051106 Modifying the -Y command line option to allow scaleup with
certain graphic controllers (only dev_vga so far), not just
scaledown.
Some minor dyntrans cleanups.
20051107 Beginning a cleanup up the PCI subsystem (removing the
read_register hack, etc).
20051108 Continuing the cleanup; splitting up some pci devices into a
normal autodev device and some separate pci glue code.
20051109 Continuing on the PCI bus stuff; all old pci_*.c have been
incorporated into normal devices and/or rewritten as glue code
only, adding a dummy Intel 82371AB PIIX4 for Malta (not really
tested yet).
Minor pckbc fix so that Linux doesn't complain.
Working on the DEC 21143 NIC (ethernet mac rom stuff mostly).
Various other minor fixes.
20051110 Some more ARM dyntrans fine-tuning (e.g. some instruction
combinations (cmps followed by conditional branch within the
same page) and special cases for DPIs with regform when the
shifter isn't used).
20051111 ARM dyntrans updates: O(n)->O(1) for just-mark-as-non-
writable in the generic pc_to_pointers function, and some other
minor hacks.
Merging Cobalt and evbmips (Malta) ISA interrupt handling,
and some minor fixes to allow Linux to accept harddisk irqs.
20051112 Minor device updates (pckbc, dec21143, lpt, ...), most
importantly fixing the ALI M1543/M5229 so that harddisk irqs
work with Linux/CATS.
20051113 Some more generalizations of the PCI subsystem.
Finally took the time to add a hack for SCSI CDROM TOCs; this
enables OpenBSD to use partition 'a' (as needed by the OpenBSD
installer), and Windows NT's installer to get a bit further.
Also fixing dev_wdc to allow Linux to detect ATAPI CDROMs.
Continuing on the DEC 21143.
20051114 Minor ARM dyntrans tweaks; ARM cmps+branch optimization when
comparing with 0, and generalizing the xchg instr. comb.
Adding disassembly of ARM mrrc/mcrr and q{,d}{add,sub}.
20051115 Continuing on various PPC things (BATs, other address trans-
lation things, various loads/stores, BeBox emulation, etc.).
Beginning to work on PPC interrupt/exception support.
20051116 Factoring out some code which initializes legacy ISA devices
from those machines that use them (bus_isa).
Continuing on PPC interrupt/exception support.
20051117 Minor Malta fixes: RTC year offset = 80, disabling a speed hack
which caused NetBSD to detect a too fast cpu, and adding a new
hack to make Linux detect a faster cpu.
Continuing on the Artesyn PM/PPC emulation mode.
Adding an Algor emulation skeleton (P4032 and P5064);
implementing some of the basics.
Continuing on PPC emulation in general; usage of unimplemented
SPRs is now easier to track, continuing on memory/exception
related issues, etc.
20051118 More work on PPC emulation (tgpr0..3, exception handling,
memory stuff, syscalls, etc.).
20051119 Changing the ARM dyntrans code to mostly use cpu->pc, and not
necessarily use arm reg 15. Seems to work.
Various PPC updates; continuing on the PReP emulation mode.
20051120 Adding a workaround/hack to dev_mc146818 to allow NetBSD/prep
to detect the clock.
20051121 More cleanup of the PCI bus (memory and I/O bases, etc).
Continuing on various PPC things (decrementer and timebase,
WDCs on obio (on PReP) use irq 13, not 14/15).
20051122 Continuing on the CPC700 controller (interrupts etc) for PMPPC,
and on PPC stuff in general.
Finally! After some bug fixes to the virtual to physical addr
translation, NetBSD/{prep,pmppc} 2.1 reach userland and are
stable enough to be interacted with.
More PCI updates; reverse-endian device access for PowerPC etc.
20051123 Generalizing the IEEE floating point subsystem (moving it out
from src/cpus/cpu_mips_coproc.c into a new src/float_emul.c).
Input via slave xterms was sometimes not really working; fixing
this for ns16550, and a warning message is now displayed if
multiple non-xterm consoles are active.
Adding some PPC floating point support, etc.
Various interrupt related updates (dev_wdc, _ns16550, _8259,
and the isa32 common code in machine.c).
NetBSD/prep can now be installed! :-) (Well, with some manual
commands necessary before running sysinst.) Updating the
documentation and various other things to reflect this.
20051124 Various minor documentation updates.
Continuing the work on the DEC 21143 NIC.
20051125 LOTS of work on the 21143. Both OpenBSD and NetBSD work fine
with it now, except that OpenBSD sometimes gives a time-out
warning.
Minor documentation updates.

++ trunk/HISTORY (local) $Id: HISTORY,v 1.982 2005/10/07 22:45:32 debug Exp $ 20050816 Some success in decoding the way the SGI O2 PROM draws graphics during bootup; lines/rectangles and bitmaps work, enough to show the bootlogo etc. :-) Adding more PPC instructions, and (dummy) BAT registers. 20050817 Updating the pckbc to support scancode type 3 keyboards (required in order to interact with the SGI O2 PROM). Adding more PPC instructions. 20050818 Adding more ARM instructions; general register forms. Importing armreg.h from NetBSD (ARM cpu ids). Adding a (dummy) CATS machine mode (using SA110 as the default CPU). Continuing on general dyntrans related stuff. 20050819 Register forms for ARM load/stores. Gaah! The Compaq C Compiler bug is triggered for ARM loads as well, not just PPC :-( Adding full support for ARM PC-relative load/stores, and load/ stores where the PC register is the destination register. Adding support for ARM a.out binaries. 20050820 Continuing to add more ARM instructions, and correcting some bugs. Continuing on CATS emulation. More work on the PPC stuff. 20050821 Minor PPC and ARM updates. Adding more machine types. 20050822 All ARM "data processing instructions" are now generated automatically. 20050824 Beginning the work on the ARM system control coprocessor. Adding support for ARM halfword load/stores, and signed loads. 20050825 Fixing an important bug related to the ARM condition codes. OpenBSD/zaurus and NetBSD/netwinder now print some boot messages. :) Adding a dummy SH (Hitachi SuperH) cpu family. Beginning to add some ARM virtual address translation. MIPS bugfixes: unaligned PC now cause an ADEL exception (at least for non-bintrans execution), and ADEL/ADES (not TLBL/TLBS) are used if userland tries to access kernel space. (Thanks to Joshua Wise for making me aware of these bugs.) 20050827 More work on the ARM emulation, and various other updates. 20050828 More ARM updates. Finally taking the time to work on translation invalidation (i.e. invalidating translated code mappings when memory is written to). Hopefully this doesn't break anything. 20050829 Moving CPU related files from src/ to a new subdir, src/cpus/. Moving PROM emulation stuff from src/ to src/promemul/. Better debug instruction trace for ARM loads and stores. 20050830 Various ARM updates (correcting CMP flag calculation, etc). 20050831 PPC instruction updates. (Flag fixes, etc.) 20050901 Various minor PPC and ARM instruction emulation updates. Minor OpenFirmware emulation updates. 20050903 Adding support for adding arbitrary ARM coprocessors (with the i80321 I/O coprocessor as a first test). Various other ARM and PPC updates. 20050904 Adding some SHcompact disassembly routines. 20050907 (Re)adding a dummy HPPA CPU module, and a dummy i960 module. 20050908 Began hacking on some Apple Partition Table support. 20050909 Adding support for loading Mach-O (Darwin PPC) binaries. 20050910 Fixing an ARM bug (Carry flag was incorrectly updated for some data processing instructions); OpenBSD/cats and NetBSD/ netwinder get quite a bit further now. Applying a patch to dev_wdc, and a one-liner to dev_pcic, to make them work better when emulating new versions of OpenBSD. (Thanks to Alexander Yurchenko for the patches.) Also doing some other minor updates to dev_wdc. (Some cleanup, and finally converting to devinit, etc.) 20050912 IRIX doesn't have u_int64_t by default (noticed by Andreas <avr@gnulinux.nl>); configure updated to reflect this. Working on ARM register bank switching, CPSR vs SPSR issues, and beginning the work on interrupt/exception support. 20050913 Various minor ARM updates (speeding up load/store multiple, and fixing a ROR bug in R(); NetBSD/cats now boots as far as OpenBSD/cats). 20050917 Adding a dummy Atmel AVR (8-bit) cpu family skeleton. 20050918 Various minor updates. 20050919 Symbols are now loaded from Mach-O executables. Continuing the work on adding ARM exception support. 20050920 More work on ARM stuff: OpenBSD/cats and NetBSD/cats reach userland! :-) 20050921 Some more progress on ARM interrupt specifics. 20050923 Fixing linesize for VR4121 (patch by Yurchenko). Also fixing linesizes/cachesizes for some other VR4xxx. Adding a dummy Acer Labs M1543 PCI-ISA bridge (for CATS) and a dummy Symphony Labs 83C553 bridge (for Netwinder), usable by dev_footbridge. 20050924 Some PPC progress. 20050925 More PPC progress. 20050926 PPC progress (fixing some bugs etc); Darwin's kernel gets slightly further than before. 20050928 Various updates: footbridge/ISA/pciide stuff, and finally fixing the VGA text scroll-by-changing-the-base-offset bug. 20050930 Adding a dummy S3 ViRGE pci card for CATS emulation, which both NetBSD and OpenBSD detects as VGA. Continuing on Footbridge (timers, ISA interrupt stuff). 20051001 Continuing... there are still bugs, probably interrupt- related. 20051002 More work on the Footbridge (interrupt stuff). 20051003 Various minor updates. (Trying to find the bug(s).) 20051004 Continuing on the ARM stuff. 20051005 More ARM-related fixes. 20051007 FINALLY! Found and fixed 2 ARM bugs: 1 memory related, and the other was because of an error in the ARM manual (load multiple with the S-bit set should _NOT_ load usermode registers, as the manual says, but it should load saved registers, which may or may not happen to be usermode registers). NetBSD/cats and OpenBSD/cats seem to install fine now :-) except for a minor bug at the end of the OpenBSD/cats install. Updating the documentation, preparing for the next release. 20051008 Continuing with release testing and cleanup.
++ trunk/HISTORY (local) $Id: HISTORY,v 1.772 2005/06/04 12:02:16 debug Exp $ 20050428 Disabling the "-fmove-all-movables" option in the configure script, because it causes the compile to fail on OpenBSD/sgi. 20050502 Minor updates. 20050503 Removing the WRT54G mode (it was bogus anyway), and adding a comment about Windows NT for MIPS in doc/experiments.html. Minor updates to the x86 instruction decoding. 20050504 Adding some more x86 instructions. Adding support for reading files from ISO9660 CDROMs (including gzipped files). It's an ugly hack, but it seems to work. Various other minor updates (dev_vga.c, pc_bios.c etc). 20050505 Some more x86-related updates. Beginning (what I hope will be) a major code cleanup phase. "bootris" (an x86 bootsector) runs :-) 20050506 Adding some more x86 instructions. 20050507 tmpnam => mkstemp. Working on a hack to allow VGA charcells to be shown even when not running with X11. Adding more x86 instructions. 20050508 x86 32-bit SIB addressing fix, and more instructions. 20050509 Adding more x86 instructions. 20050510 Minor documentation updates, and other updates (x86 stuff etc.) 20050511 More x86-related updates. 20050513 Various updates, mostly x86-related. (Trying to fix flag calculation, factoring out the ugly shift/rotate code, and some other things.) 20050514 Adding support for loading some old i386 a.out executables. Finally beginning the cleanup of machine/PROM/bios dependant info. Some minor documentation updates. Trying to clean up ARCBIOS stuff a little. 20050515 Trying to make it possible to actually use more than one disk type per machine (floppy, ide, scsi). Trying to clean up the kbd vs PROM console stuff. (For PC and ARC emulation modes, mostly.) Beginning to add an 8259 interrupt controller, and connecting it to the x86 emulation. 20050516 The first x86 interrupts seem to work (keyboard stuff). Adding a 8253/8254 programmable interval timer skeleton. FreeDOS now reaches a command prompt and can be interacted with. 20050517 After some bugfixes, MS-DOS also (sometimes) reaches a command prompt now. Trying to fix the pckbc to work with MS-DOS' keyb.com, but no success yet. 20050518 Adding a simple 32-bit x86 MMU skeleton. 20050519 Some more work on the x86 stuff. (Beginning the work on paging, and various other fixes). 20050520 More updates. Working on dev_vga (4-bit graphics modes), adding 40 columns support to the PC bios emulation. Trying to add support for resizing windows when switching between graphics modes. 20050521 Many more x86-related updates. 20050522 Correcting the initial stack pointer's sign-extension for ARCBIOS emulation (thanks to Alec Voropay for noticing the error). Continuing on the cleanup (ARCBIOS etc). dev_vga updates. 20050523 More x86 updates: trying to add some support for protected mode interrupts (via gate descriptors) and many other fixes. More ARCBIOS cleanup. Adding a device flag which indicates that reads cause no side-effects. (Useful for the "dump" command in the debugger, and other things.) Adding support for directly starting up x86 ELFs, skipping the bootloader stage. (Most ELFs, however, are not suitable for this.) 20050524 Adding simple 32-bit x86 TSS task switching, but no privilege level support yet. More work on dev_vga. A small "Copper bars" demo works. :-) Adding support for Trap Flag (single-step exceptions), at least in real mode, and various other x86-related fixes. 20050525 Adding a new disk image prefix (gH;S;) which can be used to override the default nr of heads and sectors per track. 20050527 Various bug fixes, more work on the x86 mode (stack change on interrupts between different priv.levels), and some minor documentation updates. 20050528 Various fixes (x86 stuff). 20050529 More x86 fixes. An OpenBSD/i386 bootfloppy reaches userland and can be interacted with (although there are problems with key repetition). NetBSD/i386 triggers a serious CISC-related problem: instruction fetches across page boundaries, where the later part isn't actually part of the instruction. 20050530 Various minor updates. (Documentation updates, etc.) 20050531 Adding some experimental code (experiments/new_test_*) which could be useful for dynamic (but not binary) translation in the future. 20050602 Adding a dummy ARM skeleton. Fixing the pckbc key repetition problem (by adding release scancodes for all keypresses). 20050603 Minor updates for the next release. 20050604 Release testing. Minor updates. ============== RELEASE 0.3.3 ============== 20050604 There'll probably be a 0.3.3.1 release soon, with some very very tiny updates.
++ trunk/HISTORY (local) $Id: HISTORY,v 1.707 2005/04/27 16:37:33 debug Exp $ 20050408 Some minor updates to the wdc. Linux now doesn't complain anymore if a disk is non-present. 20050409 Various minor fixes (a bintrans bug, and some other things). The wdc seems to work with Playstation2 emulation, but there is a _long_ annoying delay when disks are detected. Fixing a really important bintrans bug (when devices and RAM are mixed within 4KB pages), which was triggered with NetBSD/playstation2 kernels. 20050410 Adding a dummy dev_ps2_ether (just so that NetBSD doesn't complain as much during bootup). Symbols starting with '$' are now ignored. Renaming dev_ps2_ohci.c to dev_ohci.c, etc. 20050411 Moving the bintrans-cache-isolation check from cpu_mips.c to cpu_mips_coproc.c. (I thought this would give a speedup, but it's not noticable.) Better playstation2 sbus interrupt code. Skip ahead many ticks if the count register is read manually. (This increases the speed of delay-loops that simply read the count register.) 20050412 Updates to the playstation2 timer/interrupt code. Some other minor updates. 20050413 NetBSD/cobalt runs from a disk image :-) including userland; updating the documentation on how to install NetBSD/cobalt using NetBSD/pmax (!). Some minor bintrans updates (no real speed improvement) and other minor updates (playstation2 now uses the -o options). 20050414 Adding a dummy x86 (and AMD64) mode. 20050415 Adding some (32-bit and 16-bit) x86 instructions. Adding some initial support for non-SCSI, non-IDE floppy images. (The x86 mode can boot from these, more or less.) Moving the devices/ and include/ directories to src/devices/ and src/include/, respectively. 20050416 Continuing on the x86 stuff. (Adding pc_bios.c and some simple support for software interrupts in 16-bit mode.) 20050417 Ripping out most of the x86 instruction decoding stuff, trying to rewrite it in a cleaner way. Disabling some of the least working CPU families in the configure script (sparc, x86, alpha, hppa), so that they are not enabled by default. 20050418 Trying to fix the bug which caused problems when turning on and off bintrans interactively, by flushing the bintrans cache whenever bintrans is manually (re)enabled. 20050419 Adding the 'lswi' ppc instruction. Minor updates to the x86 instruction decoding. 20050420 Renaming x86 register name indices from R_xx to X86_R_xx (this makes building on Tru64 nicer). 20050422 Adding a check for duplicate MIPS TLB entries on tlbwr/tlbwi. 20050427 Adding screenshots to guestoses.html. Some minor fixes and testing for the next release. ============== RELEASE 0.3.2 ==============
