- M6502 CPU: Fixed some M6502 related compiler output (cpu\m6502\m6502make.py)
- M6809 CPU: Initially setting S with a 'TFR *,S' evidently should enable NMI
- M68000 CPU
. Setjmp / longjmp doesn't play nice in 64-bit debug compiles in a modern core, so use C++ exceptions to mimic the behavior. Probably could be improved.
. Fixed handling of double fault, not sure if this is proper or some other trap should be generated (cpu\m68000\m68kcpu.c)
- MC68HC11 CPU: Some changes to PDP-11 (cpu\mc68hc11\mc68hc11.c and mess\drivers\pdp11.c)
- MC68307 CPU: Now that we're modern treat the 68307 like other modern CPUs by using a derived type with the peripherals in emu\machine instead of being glued into the CPU core
- MC68340 CPU: Untangle the skeleton 68340, where the code ends up is TBD. The actual core type of the 68340 is CPU32, so it is now derived from that.
- PDP1/TX0 CPUs
. PDP1: Fixed loading of paper tape, (MESS) Spacewar works again (cpu\pdp1\pdp1.c and mess\drivers\pdp1.c).
. TX0: Fixed paper tape reader (cpu\pdp1\tx0.c and mess\drivers\tx0.c). Since this system is very much like the PDP1, it is assumed the same mods are needed. However there is no software available in the required format to test with.

. Move Atari drivers to using ioport callbacks for sound communication stuff. Added HBLANK to standard screen ports. Consolidated duplicate functions.
- Discrete sound: Fixed number of active inputs in several discrete macros. Added missing node in DISCRETE_INVERTER_OSC. Some whitespace change.
- ES5510 sound
. Preliminary hookup ES5510 to ES5505/5506. Samples are passed through unchanged for now (cpu\es5510\es5510.c/h, es5506.c/h, audio\taito_en.c, drivers\itech32.c, macrossp.c and ssv.c).
. Dropped ESS5505/6 levels in driver to make up for changes in core which under normal levels caused VERY loud audio and clipping. Note: This is a temporary fix until the core itself can be made to react as it did before the last sound core change.
- Exidy 440 sound: Modernized Exidy 440 CVSD audio device (audio\exidy440.c/h; drivers\exidy440.c and vertigo.c)
- FM sound generator: Fixed OPLx key scale level order (sound\fmopl.c (3526intf.c, 3812intf.c and 8950intf.c), ym2413.c and ymf262.c)
- HC-55516 sound: Modernized sound chip (audio\exidy.c, redalert.c, williams.c, drivers\jangou.c, pcxt.c, s11.c, s11a.c, s11b.c, s11c.c, s6.c, s6a.c, s7.c and s9.c)

. Modernized the irem_audio device (audio\irem.c; drivers\m52.c, m57.c, m58.c, m62.c and travrusa.c)
. Modernized M72 audio device and removed dead code (audio\m72.c; drivers\m72.c, m90.c, shisen.c and vigilant.c)
- MSM5232 sound: Modernized device (drivers\40love.c, bigevglf.c, buggychl.c, equites.c, flstory.c, ladyfrog.c, msisaac.c and nycaptor.c)
- Namco sound
. Modernized sound device (sound\namco.c/h; drivers\20pacgal.c, baraduke.c, galaga.c, gaplus.c, jrpacman.c, mappy.c, namcos1.c, namcos86.c, pacland.c, pacman.c, pengo.c, polepos.c, rallyx.c, skykid.c, tceptor.c and toypop.c)

. Changed 'Namco CUS30' sound to 'Namco' in baraduke.c, pacland.c, namcos1.c, namcos86.c, skykid.c and tceptor.c.
- K007232 sound: Modernized device. Removed the chip from bishi_state class, since it seems that the driver does not use this device at all (drivers\ajax.c, aliens.c, bottom9.c, chqflag.c, crimfght.c, fastlane.c, flkatck.c, gbusters.c, gradius3.c, hcastle.c, mainevt.c, nemesis.c, spy.c, thunderx.c, tmnt.c, twin16.c and wecleman.c).
- K056800 sound: Modernized device
- QS1000 sound: QS1000 sound core issue now not a mandatory include which allows tiny builds to be built without it

. Some cleanup and optimization. Added logerror info. Removed crash-prone malloc.
. Noticed some inconsistencies with variable types (helps with big endian?)
. Improved adsr timing a bit, attack rate was too slow.
. Moved tables to classroom
. Show popmessage in these cases
. PCM looping fix
. Fixed possible envelope volume clipping
. Simplified fm code to understand the "Acc" bit, but didn't get much out of that and scrapped it. On the plus side, the refactor did fix a couple of small bugs with feedback/modulation.
- YMF278B sound: Some optimization
- YMZ280B sound: Fixed Scorpion 4 sound regression and updated note
- YM3526 sound: Added a missing dependency for YM3526 (sound\sound.mak)

- 8253 PIT: Fixed null counter reset, fixes (MESS) grub invaders.
- Atari Custom
. Break out the sound communications part of atarigen into its own device. Update all callers (audio\atarijsa.c, cyberbal.c, drivers\atarig1.c, atarig42.c, atarigx2.c, atarisy1.c, atarisy2.c, badlands.c, batman.c, beathead.c, blstroid.c, cyberbal.c, eprom.c, gauntlet.c, harddriv.c, offtwall.c, relief.c, skullxbo.c, thunderj.c, toobin.c, vindictr.c, xybots.c, machine\atarigen.c/h and video\atarisy1.c).
. Convert the Atari VAD chip into a device, half-way. Really needs device-ification of atarimo.c to do it properly, so this will get revisited once that is complete (machine\atarigen.c/h; drivers\batman.c, offtwall.c, relief.c, shuuz.c and thunderj.c).
- DECO Custom
. Modernization DECO BAC06 device (drivers\actfancr.c, dec0.c, dec8.c, madmotor.c, pcktgal.c, stadhero.c and video\decbac06.c/h)
. Modernized DECO16 IC device (video\deco16ic.c/h; drivers\backfire.c, boogwing.c, cbuster.c, cninja.c, darkseal.c, dassault.c, dblewing.c, deco156.c, deco32.c, dietgo.c, dreambal.c, funkyjet.c, mirage.c, pktgaldx.c, rohga.c, simpl156.c, sshangha.c, supbtime.c, tumblep.c and vaportra.c).
. Temp PORT_VBLANK("screen") fix for simpl156.c so games run - they only check bit 7.
. Disabled unused private field (video\deco16ic.c)
. Modernization of decocomn device (drivers\boogwing.c, cninja.c, dassault.c, dietgo.c, pktgaldx.c, rohga.c and video\decocomn.c/h)
- DECO 104
. Moved Double Wings protection sim to the DECO 104 file (machine\deco104.c) - no functional change.
. Start reworking some of the 104 bits to make things easier later down the line. Shuffle Double Wings address bits around too.
. Switched the Wizard Fire reads around too so that they are more correct and align with Rohga. Make Caveman Ninja read addresses closer to Rohga / Wizard Fire etc. Bring the Double Wings addresses properly into line too (machine\deco104.c). Let Double Wings share the common protection handlers for ones we already know from other games, might make things worse due to the missing ones thos. Night Slashers and Dream Ball using generic DECO 104 protection.
. Refactor DECO104 to pump most games through a standard function. Fixed save states.
- DECO 146
. Begin creation of modern DECO 146 device with info from Charles MacDonald (machine\deco146.c/h; drivers\sshangha.c)
. Changed a few bits around based on discussion, still not right. Different (better/more correct) interpretation of Charles' data after some discussions.
. Reformat DECO 146 in a bit but you can start Super Shanghai Dragon's Eye now at least. Looks like the original might not need / use quite the same video hacks as the bootleg. Improved formatting of table.
. Hooked up the new DECO 146 sim side-by-side with the original in Edward Randy, it does seem that chip had the same functionality even if it was marked differently.
. Experiment with Mutant Fighter and DECO 146 protection. It's also similar, if not the same.
. Funky Jet works with the new code too, note the address bitswap is the *reverse* of the one to get from Fighters History to Nitro Ball format.. I suspect there is a way to get from where we are to both of those too, and that there are in reality 2 different chip types 146 (+ various rebadges of it) and 104.
. Moved some functions around for further research and studying
. Switch around the address bits on output port handling on the Fighters History / Nitro Ball type. This brings special sound/xor/mask ports to the same as shanghai etc. and also keeps values in the 0-127 range. This is most likely the unscrambled state based on tests. Still need to investigate the read side of it. Should be no functional change.
. Re-order Fighters History / Nitroball read in the same way, this makes the read ports consistent with robocop 2 and lemmings... although I can't find a connection with shanghai on the read addresses, seems like an alt mode maybe?
. Moved the bit reordering out of 'core' function and into the per-game ones for Nitrobal and Fighters History
. Collapse bitswaps (Fighters History out ports now use the same swap as Funky Jet) also reformat before further work
. A magic address xor means Nitro Ball can work with DECO 146 code and Fighter's History. Removed the 'UNEMULATED PROTECTION' flag from Fighters History, for the first time ever you can actually play it until the end (previously the last 2 bosses would glitch because the protection results were missing; need to look at the video mixing bug causing bad BG colour in test mode still). Try a different bg pen in fghthist.
. Pump Stadium Hero '96 through generic 146 code
. Put Captain America, Diet Go Go, Dragon Gun, Lemmings and Robocop 2 through the generic protection implementation
. Fixed save states
- Flash ROM
. ATA flash device derives from IDE HDD device and adds pccard interface, instead of using an IDE controller.
. Moved the GNET protection command processing to ataflash.c
- KONAMI Custom
. Modernized devices in konicdev.c: K007342, K007420, K051316, K051733, K051960, K052109, K05324x, K053251, K053936, K054000, K054338 and K056832.
. Fix for Over Drive assert (video\konicdev.c)
. Split up in their own files the remaining modernized devices contained in konicdev.c. Disabled unused private field (video\konicdev.c).
. Modernize K037122 device (drivers\hornet.c and video\konicdev.c/h)
. Modernized K053252 device (drivers\dbz.c, hexion.c, moo.c, mystwarr.c, overdriv.c, qdrmfgp.c, rollerg.c, rungun.c, vendetta.c and xexex.c)
. Preparing for some work on Tasman (k054156_k054157_k056832...; drivers\konamigx.c, mystwarr.c, zr107.c, includes\asterix.h, bishi.h, dbz.h, djmain.h, gijoe.h, lethal.h, moo.h, overdriv.h, parodius.h, qdrmfgp.h, rollerg.h, rungun.h, simpsons.h, surpratk.h, tmnt.h, xexex.h, xmen.h, video\konamiic.c and konicdev.c).
. Shuffle some things around ready for attempting to kill off non-device code. Better splitting of the 4x device. Removed duplicate code. Move some sprite code around. Make functions more similar for easier comparison / reduction. Duplicate code reduction. Make code more similar, improve some variable names etc. Unify some bits of the gx/non-gx sprite implementations. Further consolidation of codepaths.
. Added video\k001006.c/h, k001604.c/h, k007121.c/h, k007342.c/h, k007420.c/h, k037122.c/h, k051316.c/h, k051733.c/h, k051960.c/h, k052109.c/h, k053244_k053245.c/h, k053251.c/h, k053936.c/h, k054000.c/h, k054156_k054157_k056832.c/h, k054338.c/h, konami_helper.c/h and konamiic.txt. Changed video\konicdev.c to k001005.c/h and k05324x.c/h to k053246_k053247_k055673.c/h. Removed video\konamiic.c.
. K055555 reworking (Mixer Device / Priority encoder, drivers\bishi.c, djmain.c, konamigx.c and mystwarr.c)
. Documented that the Over Drive sprite DMA/irq line is hardly ever set. This actually makes the emulation *worse* for now, but might provide some insight into how it can be fixed.
. Modernized the K001604 video device (drivers\cobra.c, gticlub.c, nwk-tr.c and zr107.c) and disabled some unused private members
- MC6845 CRT: Added rudimentary support for 'interlace and video' mode
- NB1413M3 Custom
. Modernized/converted chip to a device (machine\nb1413m3.c; drivers\hyhoo.c, nbmj8688.c, nbmj8891.c, nbmj8900.c, nbmj8991.c, nbmj9195.c, niyanpai.c and pastelg.c). Removed some includes made unnecessary by recent changes. Fixed MACHINE_CONFIG in clone Seiha [BET] (Japan 870723).
. Moved NB1413M3 configuration to inline config
- Seibu CRTC
. Realized that Seibu SPI still uses their CRTC chip, updated Seibu CRTC and notes.
. Added some extra Seibu CRTC values
. Death to sei_crtc dummy device and state-ized Sengoku Mahjong and Good E Jong video functions
. Converted Seibu CRTC to a proper device (video\seibu_crtc.c)
. Hooked Seibu CRTC to D-Con and Blood Bros. hardware. Fixed regression with Blood Bros. driver. Note: An extra layer is currently disabled via the layer enable register in Seibu CRTC device (bit 2). Is it even tied to any RAM portion?
. Hooked up Seibu CRTC to clone Raiden (set 3) and Raiden 2 driver
. Seibu CRTC really loved to PAL-ize those addresses
. Some minor changes
- Sega 16-bit Custom: Split out the roadgen (drivers\segahang.c/h, segaorun.c/h, segaxbd.c/h, mame.mak, video\segahang.c, segaic16.c/h, segaorun.c and segaxbd.c).
- Seta Custom: Modernizing the seta001 device (X1-001A and X1-002A) (drivers\cchance.c, champbwl.c, seta.c, srmp2.c, taito_x.c, tnzs.c and video\seta001.c)
- Taito Custom
. Split up the video devices contained in taitoic.c (video\pc080sn.c/h, pc090oj.c/h, taito_helper.c/h, tc0080vco.c/h, tc0100scn.c/h, tc0110pcr.c/h, tc0150rod.c/h, tc0180vcu.c/h, tc0280grd.c/h, video\tc0360pri.c and tc0480scp.c/h)
. Modernized PC080SN video device (drivers\darius.c, opwolf.c, rainbow.c, rastan.c, topspeed.c and video\taitoic.c/h)
. Modernized PC090OJ video device (drivers\asuka.c, opwolf.c, rainbow.c, rastan.c, volfied.c and video\taitoic.c)
. Modernized TC0080VCO, TC0100SCN, TC0280GRD, TC0360PRI and TC0430GRW devices. Let's actually initialize things in TC0100SCN to 0. Having uninitialized stuff anywhere is bad. Old 'C' devices would clear everything automatically, new 'C++' ones will not, you must do it manually. This appears to help with the missing layers issue (video\taitoic.c).
- TMS34061 video controller: Converted TMS34061 to be a device (video\tms34061.c, drivers\capbowl.c, guab.c, itech8.c and jpmsys5.c)
- IDE
. If there is no drive selected then there is nothing to read from, although not sure what value this expect to receive (machine\idectrl.c).
. Moved the buffer from the IDE controller to the device
. Moved more state from idectrl.h. Moved password fields off the IDE controller.
. Moved block_count to the device, renamed some IDE commands to make them closer to the spec & also use the block count for triggering the first irq on read/write multiple.
. Either I misunderstand the spec or the code but judge dredd doesn't like this change.
. Moved a couple more variables. A couple more over the fence.
. Fixed crash if no disk. Fishin' Frenzy has no hard drive at all and prefers this value (return 0xff).
. Allow more than one IDE controller on the same device
. Area 51: Site doesn't like the same value as Fishin' Frenzy, maybe there is a difference between the value you get for no drives at all and no current drive.
. Moved the Error register, status, command, status timer and reset timer across.
. Splitted hard drive emulation from the IDE controller
. Simplified ide_device_interface (machine\idehd.c)
. Derive Chihiro's baseboard ide from IDE mass storage device (machine\idehd.c)
. Simplified idehd status flags & fixed ct486 booting in MESS
. Fixed crash when reading from non existent hard drive (machine\idehd.h)
. Changed "features" to "identify device". Don't set DRDY immediately when executing identify device as a timer is fired that will set it and trigger an interrupt anyway. Diagnostics fail if no identify device response is available. Set correct register contents at reset. Added edge detection to reset. Clear irq as soon as reset is triggered. Don't clear DRDY when resetting. Only call update_irq if something changed. Removed some places that were setting sector count. Added some #defines for masking bit fields (machine\idectrl.c, idehd.c, drivers\chihiro.c, cobra.c, kinst.c, taitotz.c and viper.c).
. Fixed head incrementing when using CHS with 16 heads (machine\idehd.c)
. Removed read_key() from ide_mass_storage_device as it's only used by ataflash and that was also reading the key in manually (machine\ataflash.c, idehd.c, drivers\chihiro.c).
. Added device number in logs, fixed issues with status flags that was causing FreeBSD to fail to boot with two drives (achine\idehd.c).
. Added ata_interface_device, ide_controller_device is now only for pc register mapping. Renamed ide_mass_storage_device to ata_mass_storage_device. Changed ide_hdd_device so it only picks up it's image from the harddisk_image_device, which does a lookup to see if there is a region itself (emu\imagedev\harddriv.c, ataflash.h, idectrl.c/h, idehd.c/h, machine.mak, drivers\atlantis.c, calchase.c, chihiro.c, cobra.c, djmain.c, extrema.c, fruitpc.c, funkball.c, gamecstl.c, globalvr.c, iteagle.c, jaguar.c, kinst.c, maygayep.c, mediagx.c, midqslvr.c, midvunit.c, photoply.c, pinball2k.c, pyson.c, qdrmfgp.c, quakeat.c, queen.c, savquest.c, seattle.c, taitogn.c, taitotz.c, twinkle.c, vegas.c, viper.c, voyager.c, vp101.c, zn.c, includes\djmain.h and qdrmfgp.h).
. Added VIA VT83C461, which is currently implemented as a 32 bit chip. This allows hooking up to the jaguar driver without any glue, but Primal Rage 2 does as the io bus it's connected to is only 16 bit.
. Only build the identify buffer on the first reset, so patches made by the driver aren't lost if the device is reset.
. Fixed issues that caused the HD to report that the diagnostics failed (machine\idehd.c and drivers\chihiro.c)
. Log unknown writes (machine\idehd.c)
. Moved identify buffer manipulation and master/user password setting from ata interface to the ata mass storage device. These should be stored in the CHD (emu\machine\atadev.c/h, ataintf.c/h, idehd.c/h, drivers\cobra.c, djmain.c, kinst.c, taitotz.c and viper.c).
. Make sure identify buffer is initialised (machine\idehd.c)
. Added IDE_CONTROLLER_32 for systems that have 32 bit prefetch
. Don't update irq/dmarq unless they change (machine\ataintf.c)
. Uses one timer instead of anonymous timers, so that resetting the device will stop any outstanding work. BSY is always set when waiting for the busy timer to fire. Implemented DASP & PDIAG functionality, device 1 is detected during reset & if device 1 fails diagnostic then device 0 sets bit 7 of it's diagnostic result. Ide cards now default to 1 hard disk, otherwise device 1 without a chd will cause device 0 to report a controller error (AMIBIOS for example doesn't allow booting from device 0 if device 1 fails). Timing of DASP & PDIAG is set very short because of lack of wait states when accessing ATA bus. Improved SRST functionality, which has meant viper needed to be changed to trigger a hard reset instead of a soft reset. Writes to the command register are now ignored with BSY or DRQ is set (packet devices can accept the DEVICE RESET command but they are not supported yet).
. Forgot the secret ingredient (machine\idehd.h)
- CHDMAN

. Fixed hang when chd_file_compressor::async_read() failed (e.g. trying to read an .avi with unsupported color depth) and improved error reporting a bit (lib\util\chd.c and tools\chdman.c).
. Corrected SHA1 mismatch messages in chdtest.py
. Disable creation of uncompressed LD CHDs in chdman.c
. Disabled optimizations for FLAC__lpc_compute_autocorrelation() for 32-bit GCC builds to prevent different output filesizes with optimized builds (libflac\lpc.c).
- MESS
. PC driver cleanup: Moved the ct486 driver to its own file (mess\drivers\ct486.c), to avoid all the legacy stuff in at.c.
. Use irq delay from pcjr for pcjx
. Simplified status idehd flags & fixed ct486 booting in MESS. Fixed ct486 booting with two chd's loaded.

- bking.c
. Fixed collision detection (video\bking.c) (ID 03863). This fixed when you are shooting your ball, often you'll hit bunkers that appear to be plain fairway, trees which are not there and even water hazard areas which do not register as water. This makes gameplay very difficult at times.
. No need to savestate temp bitmaps. Small cleanup.
- champbwl.c, srmp2.c, taito_x.c and tnzs.c: Correct common typo on Seta PCB numbers
- chihiro.c:
. Derive Chihiro's baseboard IDE from IDE mass storage device (machine\idehd.c)

. Added VIA VT83C461, which is currently implemented as a 32 bit chip. This allows hooking up to the Jaguar driver without any glue, but Primal Rage 2 does as the I/O bus it's connected to is only 16 bit.
. Fishin' Frenzy has no hard drive at all and prefers this value (return 0xff)
- legionna.c: Raw guess with Godzilla CRTC values
- lindbergh.c: Added Sega Lindbergh BIOS. Force number to be unsigned so it can compile. Basic I/O hooked. A bunch of notes, can't do much else in current stage. Fixed CPU type.

Added documentation about custom (regional) versions of Superstar / Supertouch 30 sets. Changed all Pit Boss series games to use the ZXCVB key layout with N for "play" and M for "raise".
. Pit Boss Superstar III 30 is not a touchscreen game, so move it into the meritm_crt250_questions class of games. Rename to pbss330 to avoid naming conflict if/when a "standard" Pit Boss Superstar 30 shows up.
. Use poker/gambling macros instead of assigning custom keycode

- williams.c: Improved Williams blitter logic and timing to match tests run on real hardware
- zn.c
. Renamed some #defines to match up closer to the ATA specification (machine\idectrl.c and idehd.c). Added validation to register access, switching Primal Rage 2 away from using the DMA interface in it's DMA handler as the game only executes normal read commands.
. Added VIA VT83C461, which is currently implemented as a 32 bit chip. This allows hooking up to the jaguar driver without any glue, but primal rage 2 does as the io bus it's connected to is only 16 bit.
- 1942: Fixed possibility to crash MAME if membank was 3 in 1942 and clones
- 1943 Kai: Fixed DIP locations
- AGEMAME

- Crush Roller: Added Namco sound to clone (bootleg set 4)
- Dream Ball: Added note regarding RS-232C status in ADDRESS_MAP
- Golden Tee 3D Golf: Corrected cut-n-paste error in rom names of clones (v1.91L), (v1.92L) and (v1.92S).
- Hard Times: Fixed level 2-4 boss (ID 05220)
- Hidden Catch 2000: Added protection patch and speedup. The sound 'works' using the external program rom from HC2 + rom patch but obviously I can't guarantee it to be correct but the game does seem based on the 'new hidden catch' codebase anyway and the sound programs are minimal code. Marked it as working, but need to look at where the extra OKI sound board maps and hope it isn't driven by the sound MCU. Note, setting registers seems broken in the hyperstone core since modernization.
- Master of Weapon: Replaced b72-02.rom with correct dump b72-02.6 in Master of Weapon (World) and clone (US)
- Mini Boy 7: Added proms ($0, 100) to clone (set 2)

Updated decodmd2 to use MC6845_UPDATE_ROW, and corrected status return. Implemented DECO DMD Type 1 (128x16) display. There are various issues with communication to and from this DMD, so some games have issues, or won't even start properly. Improved communications with Type 1 DMD. Added low intensity dots. Fixed likely buffer overflow. Made machine config for decodmd use inline configuration.
. Fixed Cyrix config register access in Pinball 2000 driver

. Moved Back To the Future (2.7) and clones from de_3 to de_2 driver, they will now run.
. Moved 'Laser War (8.3)' and clone 'Laser War (9.0 Europe)' to de_2, as CPU Type 1 and Alphanumeric Type 1 are very much similar to Type 2. de_1.c is no longer needed. Added layout for Alphanumeric Type 3 games. Replaced M6800 with M6808 (4MHz) CPU1, M6809E (8MHz), YM2151 (3580000 Hz), MSM5205 (384000 Hz), Sample and 2x Speaker.

- MAME
. Tilemap system
. Moved remaining legacy macros and typedefs to tilelgcy.h. This revealed a few drivers mixing and matching modern & legcy, which have now been fixed.
. Changed get info callback signature to no longer pass the user_data pointer, but instead pass a reference to the tilemap object itself. Updated those few drivers using user_data to pull it out of the tilemap object with the new user_data() getter method.
. Changed get info and mapping callbacks to be device_delegates so that they can be described at config time.
. Added tilemap_memory object that is used internally for reading/writing to memory that backs a tilemap. This object is used to track a memory pointer that backs tilemap memory, and also is designed to transparently handle all bus width and endianness associated with reading and writing data in a tilemap.
. Incorporated two tilemap_memory objects (basemem and extmem) into the tilemap object and added accessors to them, as well as read/write handlers for reading/writing to entries stored in the memory. This means that tilemap get info callbacks can now easily read data out of the tilemap in a generic way.
. Rejiggered the initialization sequence for tilemap objects so that the tilemap_manager is not required to be present at instantiation.
. Created a new tilemap_device, which can be used to declare a tilemap in the machine config, and which also is a tilemap object itself. The tilemap device will look for shared memory regions called "" and "_ext" and automatically plug them into the tilemap. The device also provides write handlers that can be used to write to the tilemap memory and mark tiles dirty, saving the need for each driver to write their own
. Atari drivers: Removed all playfield and alpha memory and tilemap variables, apart from those needed by atarivc-using games (this will become a device in a future update). Updated all Atari 16-bit drivers to use the new tilemap_device instead, which provides all the needed functionality in a more generic way.
. Recompute_speed even if we skip frame, makes wav's output same for any frameskip (emu\video.c)
. Modernized generic palette initializations. Fixed palette viewer clamp (emu\uigfx.c).
. MAME devices
. Allow devices with execute interface to have a clock of zero, they are suspended and restarted on clock change. Note that the device still needs to have a clock before MAME actually starts executing timeslices (emu\diexec.c/h). Added comments to diexec.h.
. Made makemak add dependencies for needed devices automatically, added partial meta data into device building mak files (build\makemak.c, emu\cpu\cpu.mak, machine\machine.mak and sound\sound.mak).
. Added metadata to rest of make files for optional built devices (emu\machine\machine.mak, sound\sound.mak and video\video.mak)
. Extended large amount of devices with shortname and source file data, found few that have fixed values and did modern cpu cores as well.
. Expand listxml output with all devices having shortname (so all except cpus are in) and references to them. Ignore just samples when displaying sample device itself, since it gets first attached sample in XML.
. legacy_cpu--: This is a first pass at converting to a modern device, I'd be surprised if there are no issue but it's already a weeks worth of updating + testing.
. Removed unnecessary (and bogus) setting of a variable in screen_device::update_partial (emu\screen.c). Moved some legacy stuff from screen.h to scrlegcy.h.
. Resolved devices specified for vblank/periodic interrupts relative to the owner device, not the device itself, to make it consistent with devcb2 patterns. This change is mostly hidden since most drivers use MCFG_DEVICE_VBLANK_INT_DRIVER and MCFG_DEVICE_PERIODIC_INT_DRIVER. But for those few cases where a device was explicitly specified, it reduces the awkwardness. We should probably standardize this when using device_delegates for consistency (emu\diexec.c/h, audio\atarijsa.c, midway.c, drivers\atarisy2.c and cyberbal.c).
. Fixed driver_device OVERRIDE macros to work with devices, report_bad_device_cast contains the name of the device as well as the ID (emu\driver.h).
. Device system: Moved required/optional device finders to a new header emu\devfind.c/h
. Fixed memory subunit reconfiguration. To hit this bug you need to have two subsized handlers on the same address with a different starting address. Something like, in a 64-bits address map: AM_RANGE(0x00, 0x1f) AM_READ32(r1_r, 0xffffffff00000000) and AM_RANGE(0x10, 0x1f) AM_READ32(r2_r, 0x00000000ffffffff). Then r2_r (last entry) was called with an incorrect offset. To say that this configuration does not happen often is an understatement.
. Added endianness to the memory_share class (emu\memory.c)
. Reduced AM_RAM_WRITE_LEGACY users (drivers\segahang.c, segaorun.c, segas16a.c, segas16b.c, segas18.c, segaxbd.c, segaybd.c and video\sega16sp.c and segaic16.c)
. Removed unused AM_RAM_DEVWRITE_LEGACY and AM_RAM_WRITE_LEGACY macro (emu\addrmap.h)
. Improved exception handling in running_machine::run (emu\machine.c)
. Moved some legacy macros from driver.h to drivlgcy.h and from tilemap.h to tilelgcy.h. Added some comments to tilemap.h. Moved some legacy stuff from mconfig.h to mcfglgcy.h.
. Core validation message were never shown (emu\validity.c)
. Removed unused examples from zlib folder
. Made includes of C files in drivers section to use .inc instead, and also renamed galdrvr.c into galaxian.inc and neodrvr.c to neogeo.inc since it makes more sense.
. Added a text change to the "RETURN" menu line ("Return to Prior Menu" -> "Return to Previous Menu"; emu\uimenu.c)
. Added pngcmp to tools
- SDLMAME
. Finished up QT Debugger breakpoints window. It now shows breakpoints for all CPUs and lets you sort by each field.
. Fixed uninitialized variables in sdlvideo_monitor_refresh() with SDL < 1.2.10. Disabled some warnings for GCC 4.8 (sdl\sdl.mak)
. Don't hide cursor while in debugger (osd\sdl\debugqt.c)
. Temp fix for QT Debugger until handling of main loop is done in different way (sdl\debugqt.c)
- Compiling
. Removed obsolete "tests" target from makefile
. Some MemorySanitizer preparations: Put memory initialization in src\emu\emualloc.c behind NO_MEMORY_INITIALIZATION define. Disable memory initialization when msan is used. Use origin tracking for msan when Clang is used (makefile and emu\emualloc.c).
. Added some flags for SANITIZE=memory to makefile
. Cleaner way of disabling memory initialization with MemorySanitizer (makefile and emu\emualloc.c)
. Enabled U64 and S64 for Visual Studio compilers (osd\osdcomm.h)
. Initial support for Fedora 19 / GCC 4.8.1
. srcclean made the gamelist lop sided (drivers\decocass.c). One more fix for inc in srcclean.
. The wrath of GCC 4.0.1 rumbles across the plains (drivers\chihiro.c). GCC 4.0.1 doesn't allow -1 for a UINT32 (mess\drivers\casloopy.c).
. Removed a couple of unneeded devlegcy.h inclusions (thanks Osso for pointing them out) (machine\adc1038.h and sound\k051649.h).
. devlegcy.h usage cleanup
. Build dependencies for files in src\emu (makefile, mame\mame.mak, mess\mess.mak and ume\ume.mak)
. Make FULLNAME use ?= instead of =, allows users to override the final executable name from the command line (makefile)
. Simplified mamemak. Updated makemak to support splitting per libraries (build\makelist.c and makemak.c).
. Start work on makemak to produce dependency per driver, added @ sign into lst to declare source file import used by makemak only, added just few testing examples.
. Don't just ignore first char, but take full line (build\makelist.c)
. Created lib per driver source file, and make linking correct.
. Added layout dependancy (build\makemak.c)
. Made dependency for new lst files (mame\mame.mak)
. Added missing cpu metadata (cpu\cpu.mak)
. Put optional cpu, video, sound and machine cores in one library in order to prevent linking issues on small builds.
. Made makemak create lst as well, and some fixes for cpu.mak.
. makemak WIP (targets\mame.lst, mess.lst and ume.lst)
. Fixed array out-of-bounds access in drivers\merit.c, video\ppu2c0x.c, video\seibuspi.c (ejsakura) and video\system1.c. Fixed uninitialized memory in video\cidelsa.c (fixes array out-of-bounds accesses). Added asserts to mame\machine\megavdp.c to indicate array out-of-bounds accesses (machine\megavdp.c).
. Fixes for building MAME with Visual Studio 2013 preview (cpu\mc68hc11\mc68hc11.c, rsp\rspdrc.c, tms32031\32031ops.c, emu\debug\debugcmd.c, machine\msm6242.c, pit8253.c, emu\rendfont.c, several formats\*_dsk.c, softfloat\softfloat-macros, drivers\beathead.c, machine\harddriv.c, video\tank8.c, tia.c/h, windows\ledutil.c, windows\winprefix.h and tools\chdman.c).
. Output the actual JED test error message (jedutil\jedtest.py). Switch JED files to binary as the checksum includes line endings.
. Fixed OS X 10.5 compile (machine\pccard.h and machine\k573cass.h). OS X 10.5 says hi (added ~ide_device_interface() {} in machine\idehd.h). Don't crash if pcap can't find a network interface's name (osd\osdnet.c).
. Make the Python scripts line ending agnostic (fixes *IX/OS X build from mamedev.org source zip) (cpu\m6502\m6502make.py, m6809\m6809make.py, mcs96\mcs96make.py and tms57002\tmsmake.py).
. Fixed drcbex{64|86}.c compilation
. Some emu.h related redundant #include cleanup
. Added two more output folders to ignore list (mame\trunk)
. Fixed UME validation (Arcadia -> Arcadia (NMK))
