Show IOSPACE doesn't always get the number of devices right due to device creativity.
o The distinction between UNIT and DEVICE has blurred
o MUX devices merge several physical devices into one device/unit
o Dynamic device sizing has made things more volatile.
This edit solves the problem for SHOW IOSPACE by adding an (optional) word to the DIBs.
The word contains the amount of IO space consumed by each instance of the physical device that's being emulated.
E.G., if it's a DZ11, the device is the DZ11 module, or 8 lines, even though the MUX device may support 32.
This enables SHOW IOSPACE to determine the number of physical devices being emulated, which is what folks need when configuring software. The word may have other uses - in a generic dynamic device sizing routine - which is why the amount of IOSPACE per device was chosen rather than the 'number of physical devices.'
The edit should not make any existing device regress. If the new word (ulnt) is zero (not initialized), SHOW IOSPACE will default to the number of units in the device, or if there's no device (CPUs), 1 as before. If it is present, the number of devices is the calculated as total allocation/allocation-per-device.
The edit updates all the devices that seem to require this treatment, and all the processors that define the UNIBUS/QBUS DIBs.
Fixed auto configure bugs which didn't allow Fixed CSR Addresses or Fixed Vectors to be set using the auto configure information.
Fixed display of address and vectors to indicate that the assigned address and/or vector is in the floating set.
Added extended definitions to the auto configure table to reflect all known potential static and floating and static addresses as of VMS V5.5-2
Changed the name of the VAX 11/780 console floppy device name to RXC from RX (which collides with a Unibus name for the RX11).
The makefile now works for Linux and most Unix's. However, for Solaris
and MacOS, you must first export the OSTYPE environment variable:
> export OSTYPE
> make
Otherwise, you will get build errors.
