- 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 signficantly improves header hygiene in the 3B2 project by
moving global symbols out of 3b2_defs.h and into the appropriate
individual module header files.
Each compilation unit now includes:
- its appropriate matching .h file
- any other .h files necessary for linting and compilation
Each header file in turn includes 3b2_defs.h, which contains truly
global symbols, and which pulls in sim_defs.h and exports global
devices.
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.
This change lays the groundwork for adding support for Rev 3 3B2 models,
which includes the Model 500, Model 600, and Model 1000.
Rather than use the fixed strings "400" and "1000" in file names, the
strings "rev2" and "rev3" will be used, which allows greater flexibility
to implement various system configurations more easily.
Additionally, this change adds a copy of the Debug Monitor (DEMON) ROM
image for the Rev 2 board, to be used soon in a later checkin.
