Cleanup/Simplification by:
1) removing irrelevant master flag variable from sim_close_sock and thus sim_err_sock
2) change previous boolean feature arguments (datagram, nodelay, reuseaddr) to flag bits in a single option argument. This allows for features to be added by new flag bits which don't change the calling signatures.
3) changed all status returns to be int (vs t_stat) with success being 0 and error being -1
4) removed unneeded simh specific type references to allow sim_sock to be used by n
Extended API by providing flags to influence socket setup/behavior:
SIM_SOCK_OPT_REUSEADDR Retains prior behavior when sim_switches had -U set
SIM_SOCK_OPT_DATAGRAM UDP socket setup provided for when prior datagram argument was specified
SIM_SOCK_OPT_NODELAY TCP Nagle disable provided for when prior nodelay argument was specified
SIM_SOCK_OPT_BLOCKING Blocking socket mode (detault is non blocking)
Avoid permanent network network hangs when a network transport starts to return errors for various reasons.
These hangs also result in at least one thread in a CPU bound loop attempting to read on a pcap connection which will never be useful again.
When transmit or receive errors occur, the invoking thread sleeps for 1 second and subsequent operations proceed. When the total of read + write errors reaches a multiple of ETH_ERROR_REOPEN_THRESHOLD the current transport connection (usually pcap) is closed and re-opened after a ETH_ERROR_REOPEN_PAUSE second delay. If the open succeeds, we're happy. If it fails, then the link behaves as if it were never attached until some subsequent operator intervention is performed.
Activities which are known to induce this problems include (but are not limited to) when a simulator is running in a Windows Virtual Machine on a Hyper-V host system and the Hyper-V host system performs a SAVE and a subsequent Restart of the Guest Windows Virtual Machine. This operation can occur due to specific operator requests or merely when the Hyper-V host system reboots.
The goals here being to simplify calling code while getting consistent output delivered everywhere it may be useful.
Modified most places which explicitly used sim_log or merely called printf to now avoid doing that and merely call sim_printf().
- Avoid assignments of void * values. Cast all memory allocation return values to appropriate types.
- Add output to sim_log where missing in various places.
- Fixed issue with lost file positions after a restore for devices which leverage the UNIT_SEQ flag.
1. getaddrinfo returns IPv6 address even if IPv6 is not configured.
The socket syscalls fails to create IPv6 socket. This is fixed by retrying for all possible addresses returned by getaddrinfo.
2. On HP-UX EAGAIN is used, not EWOULDBLOCK.
Added support for per line tcp listen ports.
Added support for per line outgoing tcp/telnet connections.
Removed DEV_NET from pdp11_dz and pdp11_vh emulators to allow proper restore of
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.

1. New Features
1.1 3.5-0
1.1.1 All Ethernet devices
- Added Windows user-defined adapter names (from Timothe Litt)
1.1.2 Interdata, SDS, HP, PDP-8, PDP-18b terminal multiplexors

1.2 3.5-1
No new features
1.3 3.5-2
1.3.1 All ASCII terminals
- Most ASCII terminal emulators have supported 7-bit and 8-bit
operation; where required, they have also supported an upper-
case only or KSR-emulation mode. This release adds a new mode,
7P, for 7-bit printing characters. In 7P mode, non-printing
characters in the range 0-31 (decimal), and 127 (decimal), are
automatically suppressed. This prevents printing of fill
characters under Windows.
The printable character set for ASCII code values 0-31 can be
changed with the SET CONSOLE PCHAR command. Code value 127
(DELETE) is always suppressed.
1.3.2 VAX-11/780
- First release. The VAX-11/780 has successfully run VMS V7.2. The
commercial instructions and compatability mode have not been
extensively tested. The Ethernet controller is not working yet
and is disabled.
