This PR adds support for the Processor Technology VDM-1 display adapter and Sol-20 computer system. The VDM-1 was integrated into the Sol-20 but has been separated out into its own device.
This PR adds the following devices to the AltairZ80 simulator:
VDM1 - Processor Technology VDM-1 display adapter
SOL20 - Processor Technology SOL20 with SOLOS ROMs
SOL20K - SOL20 Keyboard (callback from VDM1)
SOL20T - SOL20 Tape (reads/writes cassette file images)
SOL20S - SOL20 Serial Port (TMXR capable)
SOL20P - SOL20 Printer Port (TMXR capable)
- Builds x86 and x64 regular snapshots.
x64: Mon Wed Fri
x86: Tue Thu Sat
ARM: Mon Thu Sun (ARM not enabled)
- Builds x64 on closed pull request, Release
- Manual trigger allows selection of ref, platform,
architecture, config, disposition
- Releases and daily snapshots are deployed automagically
- VS Project 2022 files updated for ARM, but not setup for
cross-builds (BuildROMs) or tested on ARM (no hardware)
- Fix makefile tests for cygwin
The GCC documentation explicitly says not to use that option
when -flto is used, and since that is the only place where
the makefile was using it, remove it to conform to the
documented rules.
When building compiler optimized binaries with the gcc or clang compilers,
invoking GNU make with LTO=1 on the command line will cause the build
to use Link Time Optimization to maximally optimize the results.
Link Time Optimization can report errors which aren't otherwise detected
and will also take significantly longer to complete.
This change allows CI builds to fail without detailed viewing of build output
for gcc and clang builds (all modern compilers). Thus forcing PR submitters
to find these problems before PRs are merged. This is done by compiling
with -Werror for these compilers.
We don't know how to do this for other compilers which may be able to use
the makefile, so warnings there will still proceed to build successfully.
This avoids infecting SIMH with the GPL license, since readline,
very surprisingly, is GPL rather than LGPL.
The replacement package is "editline", which has a useable license.
This commit introduces dozens of changes to make the 3B2-700 simulator
fully functional and ready for wider use. In addition to 3B2-700
availability, this commit includes a tremendous amount of refactoring
of the 3B2-400 and common code to make the project structure easier to
maintain and reason about.
One final important change: ROM files are no longer included in the
source code. 3B2 ROM images must be obtained separately and loaded
into the simulator before boot.
Changes:
- The 3b2 target has been aliased to 3b2-400
- The formerly named 3b2-600 project has become 3b2-700
- SCSI QIC tape support has been added to sim_scsi.c
- Header files have been reworked to reduce complexity of includes
- Common code has been consolidated
- Timer code has been unified
- General cleanup of codebase
- Fixed condition codes m6800.c from Roberto Sancho Villa
- Add additional FDC lfd-400 from Roberto Sancho Villa
- Add additional OS's (FLEX 1.0, FDOS 1.0, DOS68, MiniDOS, and MiniDOS-MPX)
to software support
- Add additional disk formats to software support dc-4.c from Roberto
Sancho Villa
- Add CPU history
- Fix LOAD/DUMP to support binary and hex
- Fix fprintf_sym to disassemble 6800 code correctly
- Add EXAMINE/DEPOSIT to CPU Memory
- Fixed disasm to space the register
- Add SET_FLAG(IF) to IRQ – fixed error in handling IRQ from
Roberto Sancho Villa
These devices start disabled and will be that way in essentially all
working systems, but there apparently was a DECnet Phase V
support for this device, so it is added to all systems. The DPV
should now be readily testable.
As mentioned in #1152. That PR will fix the DUP device.
This commit is explicitly released from any license restriction
mentioned in the LICENSE.txt of the github.com/simh/simh
master branch changes.
Some dependent packages on some platforms may also define HAVE_DLOPEN
and that definition may have different syntax or semantics. This change
avoids the potential symbol conflict.
As reported in #1098
For some strange reason, Ubuntu 21.10 delivers various libraries as
either direct link libraries (".a") or shared objects (".so") where
historically essentially everything was shared objects..
- This change introduces a full refactor of the interrupt subsystem
for the system board (SBD) and the I/O bus (CIO). Interrupt decode
should now be significantly faster, and not require an expensive
calculation on every step.
- The TIMER device has been split into Rev 2 and Rev 3
implementations.
- The optional 3B2/400 Debug Monitor ROMs can now be booted by passing
the "DEMON" argument to the 3B2/400 simulator BOOT command. Any
of the following will cause the Debug Monitor ROM to be booted
instead of the standard 3B2/400 ROM:
sim> BOOT DEMON
sim> BOOT CPU DEMON
sim> BOOT DEMON CPU
This change introduces initial support for the AT&T 3B2 Rev 3 platform, based
around the WE32200 CPU with up to 64MB of RAM and SCSI disk and tape support.
This simulator is experimental and not yet supported. It will not be built by
default, but can be built with:
make 3b2-600
Or by using the 3B2-600 Windows Visual Studio project.
