- M68000/20 CPUs: A regular 68000 processor will generate a read operation when using the clr.b/.w/.l opcodes, this was fixed and changed on the 020. I'm not aware of any software explicitly requiring this right now, but it would be detectable if you have read-triggered hardware and various 68k documents advise caution when using the opcodes and porting code using said opcodes to a 020 based machine for that reason. There was some private discussion with Charles before doing this, apparently it is detectable on the Genesis where a read from the VDP port will increment the internal address counter (cpu\m68000\m68k_in.c).

Updated all drivers to use this, and removed all EEPROM stuff from atarigen. Added missing macros (machine\eeprompar.h). Fixed device description conflict.
. Atarimo: Convert atarimo to a device. Still a bunch more cleanup/improvements to do; this is pretty much a direct port of the existing functionality, built on top of the sprite_device. Keep MSVC happy when compiling for x64 (video\atarimo.c; warning C4334: '<<' : result of 32-bit shift implicitly converted to 64 bits (was 64-bit shift intended?).
. Atarirle: Moved tilemap_memory into a generic memory_array class, since it is more generally useful than just in tilemaps. Code is now in memarray.*. Converted the Atari RLE motion objects device from a half-assed device into a full-assed device, leveraging the memory_array class.
- DECO Custom
. DECO 104: Started integrating DECO104 findings from Charles, done a preliminary hookup of Double Wings to it (input ports bit order not yet verified). Nuked old bad simulation code for DW. Started pushing other games through the new 104 code, removed the old simulations. Make Pocket Gal Deluxe use the new DECO104 code, it has a different scramble on the address lines just to make things annoying even if the checks are trivial (drivers\pktgaldx.c and machine\deco104.c). Incorporate extra 104 findings from Charles, will clean up as next step. 104 table reformat and info update. Removed some commented out code from the old, not existing anymore Deco104 simulation (drivers\boogwing.c, dietgo.c, pktgaldx.c and rohga.c).

. Preliminary SET FEATURES support. Only set transfer mode is currently supported, but this checks/sets flags in the identify device buffer. The buffer has been moved up into atahle and the idehd has been changed to work with words instead of bytes (emu\machine\atahle.c/h, atapihle.c/h, idehd.c/h, drivers\cobra.c, kinst.c, taitotz.c, viper.c and machine\gdrom.c).

- EEPROM
. Renamed eeprom_device to serial_eeprom_device in anticipation of adding a parallel eeprom device
. Splitted eeprom.c into a base class base_eeprom_device and a serial-specific subclass serial_eeprom_device. Moved the latter into its own file eepromser.c and significantly cleaned up/simplified the code. The new code should be functionally the same as the previous code, but expect that to change soon. As a side-effect, the size and bus width of the EEPROM is now specified in the ADD macro rather than in the interface structure.
. Rewrite serial EEPROM devices, breaking them out into separate chips of the proper size and protocol. Update all drivers, removing custom implementations, and replacing them with standard ones. Moved core read, write, erase functionality into the EEPROM base class a simulated delays in write/erase cycles. Still some more testing/verification work left to do.
. RDY/BUSY on ER5911 is always live regardless of CS state. Fixes G.I. Joe and probably others (machine\eepromser.c).
. Make sure shift register is clear at the start of a read to simulate the dummy 0 bit. Fixed polarity of CS/CLK lines in mitchell.c.

- Vs. Super Mario Bros.: Give the bootlegs with z80 their own machine struct etc. not really sure what they want tho, they wait for 2002 to change, but that's a PPU address, forcing it to change makes the games run with broken sprites/flickering. I think they use the z80 + SN for sound instead of the real NES sound, it's probably an interesting case for somebody who knows the NES a bit better than I do, obviously being cloned hardware a couple of other bits could have changed.
- Dipswitch fixes in ddragon.c, dblewing, ddealer, galpani3, mlanding, nemesis.c, opwolf, polepos.c, sandscrp, snk68.c, tapatune and vastar.c

- MAME
. HLSL
. Removed hlsl_read and hlsl_write options now that all slider options are plumbed and have values matching the INI settings
. Added more surface release calls in order to fix device resetting
. Fixed draw order for quads, overlays now appear on top of vectors in non-HLSL mode
. Moved aperture.png loading into create_resources/delete_resources so that it is correctly reloaded when HLSL is toggled on and off
. Fixed toggling HLSL off then on with ctrl-alt-F5 will drop its use of aperture.png (ID 05162)
. Fixed Battle Zone displays black and white if HLSL is not enabled (ID 05214)
. Fixed crash when hlsl_read is set to 1 (ID 05218)
. Fixed you can't alt-tab and back with HLSL enabled and in 148 you could (ID 05235)
. Restructured NTSC encode/decode shaders for better readability
. Splitted HLSL pases into separate functions
. General code cleanup in HLSL (windows\d3d9intf.c, d3dhlsl.c/h and winmain.c)
. Minor shader cleanup and uniform consolidation
. Started re-architecting the HLSL system to be data-driven
. NOTE: Create new mame.ini with mame -cc. Switch at runtime to HLSL mode with Ctrl+Alt+F5.
. Vector games: Fixed graphics remains imprinted even when exit the game (ID 05207)
. Created new device_video_interface (emu\divideo.c)
. Right now its sole purpose is to house a screen tag and to find the screen at startup, providing an m_screen object that can be used. One nice feature is that if there is only one screen and no screen has been specified, it will auto configure to that screen. This removes the need to explicitly specify a screen in the configuration for a large chunk of drivers (though doing so never hurts). A new macro MCFG_VIDEO_SET_SCREEN is provided, though devices are encouraged to define their own that maps there so it is obvious which device is being targeted. The device_video_interface's validation function will error if an invalid screen is specified or if no screen is provided but there are multiple screens present.
. Updated all devices that currently had an m_screen in them to use the device_video_interface instead. This also has the nice benefit of flagging video-related devices for categorization purposes. It also means all these devices inherit the same screen-finding behaviors. For devices that had interfaces that specified a screen tag, those have been removed and all existing structs updated.
. Added an optional_device m_screen to the base driver_device. If you name your screen "screen" (as most drivers do), you will have free access to your screen this way.
. Future updates include: * Updating all devices referencing machine.primary_screen to use the device_video_interface instead. * Updating all drivers referencing machine.primary_screen to use the m_screen instead. * Removing machine.primary_screen entirely.
. Now setting NULL explicitly for the screen tag will prevent the video interface from auto-finding the target screen
. Tilemap
. Made MCFG_DEVICE_VBLANK_INT_DEVICE param order more logic (emu\diexec.c)
. Updated evice_execute_interface::interface_post_reset so screen is searched from same context (emu\diexec.c)
. Removed tilelgcy.h since no more users exist
. Fixed long-standing architectural wart: The priority bitmap is no longer owned by the tilemap system, and no longer exists globally in the machine. Instead it is allocated per-screen for all systems. This has several side-effects:
1. Previously, the pdrawgfx* functions were already changed to take the priority bitmap as a parameter. Now all other hand-crafted functions that mess with the priority bitmap generally must do so as well, and have been updated.
2. Calls to the tilemap system now need to provide a screen_device. This is not just for the priority_bitmap, but also for screen flipping, which previously always assumed the "primary screen" when doing flipping calculations.
3. All devices that implemented tilemap-like functionality have been updated to follow the same pattern, since they largely tend to call through to the core tilemap system at some point.
. Moved tilemap_memory into a generic memory_array class, since it is more generally useful than just in tilemaps. Code is now in memarray.*
. Converted the Atari RLE motion objects device from a half-assed device into a full-assed device, leveraging the memory_array class.
. Added missing initialization in emu\memarray.c
. More PALETTE_INIT modernizations (emu\video\315_5124.c/h, huc6260.c/h, v9938.c/h, drivers\big10.c, cave.c, csplayh5.c, ggconnie.c, kas89.c, kingdrby.c, kurukuru.c, megatech.c, meritm.c, sangho.c, segae.c, sfkick.c, sothello.c, tonton.c, tourtabl.c and video\tia.c/h). Removed unused legacy macro PALETTE_INIT_CALL (drivlgcy.h).
. Initial commit of internal web server (web\mongoose.c), mostly to check compiling on various platforms. Added sample index page with menu (web\index.html, favicon.ico, images\logo-mame-small.png). Added json library and working example (web\json\autolink.h, config.h, features.h, forwards.h, json.h, json_batchallocator.h, json_internalarray.inl, json_internalmap.inl, json_tool.h, json_valueiterator.inl, reader.h, value.h and writer.h). Moved webengine into separate file, added callbacks for websockets and made example for triggering ui on driver change, also added json for game driver. Fixed compile with DEBUG=1 and detach do not remove, should fix server crash (emu\webengine.c). Display currently running driver and update on change on server side. Make it work on IE too. jquery mobile looks like better choice (web\js\jquery.js, jquery.mobile.js, css\jquery.mobile.css, images\ajax-loader.gif, icons-18-black.png, icons-18-white.png, icons-36-black.png and icons-36-white.png). Added screenshot option and serving it from webserver. Implemented first commands for web interface (web\commands.html). Fixed possible crash on exit (web\mongoose.c). Preps for slider work. Added sliders to settings page, and show current values (web\driver.html, image.html, info.html, logs.html and options.html). Some 5 min slider work, to make it affect settings.
. Multisession bug fix for Exidy 440 audio (MAMEUI32/64)
. Added MCFG_{CPU|DEVICE}_VBLANK_INT_REMOVE and MCFG_{CPU|DEVICE}_PERIODIC_INT_REMOVE to properly remove non-legacy VBLANK interrupts - the current code only reset the legacy interrupt which wasn't set anyways (emu\devcpu.h, diexec.c/h, drivers\dacholer.c, segas18.c and system1.c). Removed unused legacy VBLANK interrupt code (emu\devcpu.h, diexec.c/h).
. Removed some unused device_irq_acknowledge_callback occurrances (cpu\arm7\arm7.h, arm7core.h, hcd62121\hcd62121.c, tms32031\tms32031.c/h and tms32051.c).
. Removed unused periodic interrupt legacy code (emu\devcpu.h and diexec.c/h)
. Removed some obsolete legacy stuff and unused member_wrapper_line from emu\driver.h and some unused macros from emu\drivlgcy.h
. Removed obsolete define from osd\windows\windows.mak
. Removed Visual Studio specific makefile define MAXOPT in favor of adding more generic define LTO (makefile and windows.mak).
. Bulk removal of machine().primary_screen references from MAME drivers, in favor of using the common m_screen. This is 98% reliable except for cases where there were multiple screens or where the screens were not named 'screen' like everywhere else. Those cases will need to be revisited but should reveal themselves in the next round of regression tests. Eventual plan is primary_screen will go away. Devices that need to know the screen should have a device_video_interface. Drivers should find the screen device like any other, or use the pre-found m_screen for the common single-screen case.
. Some cleanups of remaining machine->primary_screen references in drivers. Mostly minor except for the megadriv stuff, where I made a first pass at removing some of the legacy cruft (drivers\cobra.c, deco_mlc.c, dynax.c, esripsys.c, itech8.c, m10.c, segac2.c, segas18.c, taitotz.c, tickee.c, machine\irobot.c, megadriv.c, megavdp.c/h, emu\video\polynew.h, machine\namcos2.c, segamsys.c, snes.c, video\amiga.c and amigaaga.c).
. Removed unused legacy macro SCREEN_UPDATE16_CALL (emu\scrlegcy.h). Removed unused legacy macro VIDEO_RESET (emu\driver.h). Small VIDEO_START and MACHINE_RESET cleanup (several drivers). Some SCREEN_UPDATE_* cleanups (emu\screen.h, drivers\ddenlovr.c, raiden2.c, snowbros.c, video\kan_panb.c/h, namcos21.c, toaplan2.c and vectrex.c).
. Simpler implementation of MCFG_DEVICE_{VBLANK|PRIODIC}_INT_REMOVE
. Fixed comment in emu\dimemory.c. Removed unused macro AM_DEVREAD8_LEGACY and removed unused AM_DEVWRITE8_LEGACY macro (emu\addrmap.h)
. Removed some legacy interrupt trampolines. Removed legacy trampoline generic_pulse_irq_line_and_vector() (machine\generic.c).
. Removed DECL_NORETURN in favor of ATTR_NORETURN (emu\emucore.h and osd\osdcomm.h)
. Removed some unused legacy functions, flagged a few more things as deprecated and reduced the DEPRECATED noise a bit for now (emu\diexec.h, driver.h and machine\generic.c/h)
. Various updates regarding commented out code (AM_DEVWRITE_LEGACY -> AM_DEVWRITE; AM_DEVREADWRITE_LEGACY -> AM_DEVREADWRITE; AM_READ_LEGACY -> AM_READ...), forgotten during past device modernizations.
. Flagged devices as deprecated (machine\68681.h, machine\m68kfmly.h, machine\pd4990a.h, video\hd63484.h and video\i8275.h)
. Disabled some unused legacy includes (drivers\segajw.c and wildpkr.c)
. Fixed potential memory leak in win_open_ptty() (windows\winptty.c)
. Commented out stray printf("%d, %d\n", config->width, config->height) (osd\windows\window.c)
. Removed unused private member from osd\windows\d3dcomm.h
. Improved -listdevices display, sorting by tag and showing device hierarchies (emu\clifront.c)
. XML/Info
. Added info on input port and analog port definitions (emu\info.c). This is to provide some definition of the structure of input ports as they are logged in INP files. Would allow external programs to determine how many input ports there are, and under which ports analog ports are located.
. ADSP2100 CPU: Fixed duplicate shortnames to allow XML to show device
. AY-3-8910A sound: Setname corrections to further expand XML device coverage
. Fixed missing devices from XML (excluding legacy cpu) (emu\cpu\m68000\m68000.h, m68kcpu.c, machine\mcf5206e.c, awboard.c, fd1089.c, fd1089.h, fd1094.c, naomibd.c, naomibd.h, naomig1.c, naomig1.h, naomigd.c, naomim1.c, naomim2.c, naomim4.c, naomirom.c and video\sega16sp.c/h)
. Added missing short names to legacy devices and added validation that short name is always mandatory
. Setname and description changes to DRC devices to indicate such is being used (cpu\mips\mips3drc.c, rsp\rspdrc.c and cpu\sh2\sh2drc.c) (IDT R4650 (big) - > IDT R4650 (big) DRC, R4700 (little) - > R4700 (little) DRC, R5000 (big) - > R5000 (big) DRC, R5000 (little) - > R5000 (little) DRC, RM7000 (little) - > RM7000 (little) DRC, RSP - > RSP DRC, SH-1 - > SH-1 DRC, SH-2 - > SH-2 DRC, VR4300 (big) - > VR4300 (big) DRC and VR4310 (little) - > VR4310 (little) DRC).

. Fixed ATA addressing, reduced rom space to 8k (as that is all the XTIDE v1 supported) and added all the v1 compatible roms (machine\isa_xtide.c). Use 2864 for ROM. This allows XTIDECFG to flash the rom. Tested with 2.0.0 beta 3. You must disable SDP because eeprompar doesn't emulate it & you must load from a file as if you load from eeprom then it only finds zeros (machine\isa_xtide.c). Renamed IDE8 to XTIDE.
. Added back the Kaypro DSK format (still doesn't work!). Fixed memory leak (formats\wd177x_dsk.c). Fixed null sector case (formats\td0_dsk.c).
