1) a RELEASE is documented (in our limited case) to be equivalent to a CLEAR not a NOP.
2) avoid setting Attention as a consequence of processing an UNLOAD command.
3) extended debugging information needed while looking for an issue which turned out to be a bug in the vax 780 Massbus interrupt triggering logic.
- Cross platform VHD differencing disk fixes (dealing with file names).
- Optimization of VHD differencing disk meta data alignment
- General cleanup and casting of pointer function arguments and assignments
sim_tmxr.c
sim_defs.h
- Fixed parsing issues with NOTELNET option.
- Fixed line closing logic to drop buffered contents when line errors occur before closing link.
- Fixed logic to allow bidirectional line connections (i.e. listen=1234;connect=ip:2345 on both sides of a a virtual null modem).
pdp11_dmc.c
- Fixed DMA bug which wrote data into the wrong simulated memory address.
- Fixed incoming IP address checking.
pdp11_io_lib.c
- Added the DMC device to the autoconfigure device table
vax780_defs.h
- Added comment for DMC11
The supported boot options now are:
B XQ ; Network boot
B XQA ; equivalent
B XQA0 ; equivalent
B RQ ; Boot RQ0
B RQ0 ; equivalent
B DUA ; equivalent
B DUA0 ; equivalent
B RQn ; Boot RQn
B DUAn ; equivalent
B DUn ; equivalent
B ; Boot using boot ROM device search
Also the R5 boot options can be specified either before or after the device name and with or without the R5:
For example:
B /R5:1 XQ
B /1 XQ
B XQ /R5:1
B XQ/1
are all equivalent
pdp11_xq.c, pdp11_xq.h
- Added emulation and visibility to the LEDs which were on the physical DEQNA/DELQA network boards. "show xq: will now display the LED state in addition to the other useful things.
- Added debugging of loopback packet data
- Avoided padding on short loopback packets
- Added support for extended length loopback packets (up to 1600 bytes) which is described in the DEQNA manual and used by the MicroVAX I boot ROM. Recieve such packets with the LONG error indicator.
- Returned 'reserved' status bits as 1's in received packet status word 1.
- Added debug display of transmit and receive Buffer Descriptor List contents.
sim_ether.c, sim_ether.h
- Added support for extended/oversized packets.
scp.c,scp.h - Gave priority to a command message handler to determine what values result in displayed messages and exported run_cmd_message for use by simulators which add simulator specific BOOT commands which leverage the run_cmd logic and should also leverage the run_cmd_message for message display
VAX/vax610_sysdev.c, vax730_sys.c, vax750_cmi.c, vax780_sbi.c - Added BOOT command message dispatch to run_cmd_message for simulators which perform preprocessing on BOOT activities but otherwise then dispatch to run_cmd.
