| 19:48 | Here is the cycle-realistic version. For some reason, Fossil is not picking up some changes to pidp8i.h as well. This is needed in pidp8i.h: typedef enum { pft_stopped, /* the cpu is not running */ pft_running, /* the cpu is running */ pft_go, /* the cpu is (re-) starting from being stopped */ pft_exit /* exit(ing) SIMH */ } pidp8i_flow_t; check-in: 03fb9d8dc5 user: stevet tags: cycle-realistic | |

| 21:20 | First apparently working version of the cycle-realistic PiDP-8/I. This makes the Sing Step switch on the PiDP-8/I front panel behave the same as on a real -8 (subject to a minor risk that MA and MB may not be 100% correct in all major states). See the thread "New, experimental, (hopefully) cycle-realistic version of the PiDP-8/I" in the user group for more information about how to use it. check-in: 241d799d53 user: stevet tags: cycle-realistic | |

| 01:16 | First version of fixes. "Why are the ILS equations now not symmetrical excepting the scaling factor?" https://tangentsoft.com/pidp8i/tktview?name=135d14a0c2 "Extremely low throttle values cause blinky display" https://tangentsoft.com/pidp8i/tktview?name=b8d9865f31 Perhaps also "ILS brightness takes seconds to settle at low throttle values" https://tangentsoft.com/pidp8i/tktview?name=26cc6b3614 In the initial test version I deliberately exaggerated the rise and decay delays just so that people testing this are convinced this is really still doing a "lamp" simulation. Perhaps one should make those settings user configurable anyway. Still to do: fix some code indentation, check if there are comments that are no longer describing the current code, check if the timing of the switch management is still ok. Leaf check-in: 44e6476477 user: HBEggenstein tags: led-update-fixes | |
| 00:09 | Begin branch to fix some LED update issues: -prevent excessive undersampling of the LED states especially with high (unthrottled) instructions-per-second rates -speed up the ILS thread by reducing the number of GPIO switching -fix a bug in the calculation of the target brightness when the number of sampled instructions is rel. low (say < 100) -improve double buffering of LED "display" : swap displays only when updates were made (helps with extremly aggressive throttling) check-in: febe31baea user: HBEggenstein tags: led-update-fixes | |

| 14:16 | I2CB: build process, documentation improvements As this feature is still experimental and to allow the continuous integration to build the simh executable without th installed dependencies (libi2cd), the I2CB device logic is not included in the build by default for now, but configure offers the --i2c-bridge option to enable it, provided the libi2cd lib and header file can be found.

| 00:38 | Restored a space present in an upstream SIMH file to prevent a pointless merge conflict. check-in: fab3f7655b user: tangent tags: i2c-bridge-device | |
| 00:25 | Began a new ChangeLog entry with this branch's contribution as its first entry. check-in: bf5d1b8113 user: tangent tags: i2c-bridge-device | |

2021-10-13
| ||
| 23:07 | Initial commit to start a branch exploring the idea of having a generic SIMH device that will forward IOT instructions for configurable PDP-8 devices so they can be implemented on external hardware, typically a microcontroller connected to the host via I2C. This could be used for rapid prototyping of either historical device emulation or emulating custom I/O logic. check-in: fbcfafaf43 user: HBEggenstein tags: i2c-bridge-device | |

|
2021-05-17
| ||
| 15:18 | Changed the way "bosi prepare" handles sshd first start to use a Raspberry Pi specific mechanism that [https://groups.google.com/g/pidp-8/c/qCVLKZoJPkU/m/TLqY2IkaBAAJ | reportedly regenerates the shredded keys]. check-in: 02c35e52bf user: tangent tags: trunk | |
|
2021-04-23
| ||
| 19:51 | Updated to the latest SIMH to fix a problem with TSS/8 booting. It seems they updated some of the device handling since the Feb 3 update we did just prior to the current stable release. check-in: f02ebe72df user: tangent tags: trunk | |
|
2021-04-05
| ||
| 01:18 | Tweaks to the U/W FOCAL manual supplement's section on getting program text in, following with the wiki edit to the more generic "Getting Text In" doc. check-in: 19b97405ed user: tangent tags: trunk | |
|
2021-04-01
| ||
| 22:07 | Added a patch to the build of U/W FOCAL. It puts code that clears EAE Mode B (and copes appropriately with other PDP-8 Family members that don't have EAE Mode B) into a block of initialization code reserved for "CLEAR ANNOYING FLAGS". This should resolve bug 025575a170. check-in: 9f44dd87b8 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 08:49 | Adjustments to the build advice in the readme to track the changes made to "bosi build". check-in: 218401a205 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 08:10 | Added missing ;; in one of the case statements in bosi check-in: 247961207f user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 07:59 | Small tweaks to the release process doc. check-in: d28caab153 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 07:04 | Merged yet more changes for v20210214 in Leaf check-in: 73038fadf8 user: tangent tags: release, v20210214 | |
| 06:57 | Reworked the logic in the new "bosi build nls" code so it copies any missing images from UV, rather than blindly copy all of them only when the first one is missing. This lets you re-run the script later, relying on it to fill in the gaps before starting on the expensive parts of the build. check-in: 5ec88693ac user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:53 | Fixed a misplaced curly brace in previous check-in: 59e778933e user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:51 | Added the "nls" parameter to "bosi build" so the single-core build can share the images synced as unversioned content up to the public server rather than need to rebuild them. This also clones the images down as part of the repo for the first time, so the user has a more complete clone of the repo. check-in: 3d933f656d user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:34 | Moved the Python 3 library stuff back up in bosi from "build" to "init" step again after the "sudo make install" step failed, since that may need to run one of the class simh or class os8script Python programs that depend on one of these as root. Using platform binary packages rather than pip3 user packages. check-in: 3a02a9163b user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 03:50 | Moved the pip3 install command down from "bosi init" into "bosi build" so it's run as the pidp8i user, not as root. It does us no good to have the Python libraries installed for use by root! check-in: e4a27760c4 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 03:31 | Merged still more trunk tweaks in check-in: 280c662a13 user: tangent tags: release, v20210214 | |
| 03:31 | Moved the 8GB image size requirement up after reflecting on the prior change. check-in: 9cac6262d6 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 03:17 | The "bosi shrink" process roached the SD card, and I can't be bothered to figure out why. It's a minor optimization, not worth spending the time on, given that you have to go out of your way to find something smaller than 8GB and end up paying about as much for it when you do find one. I'm therefore betting that almost no one is actually trying to use a 4GB card, the only thing smaller that could possibly work, since even with the shrink, the finished image wouldn't fit on a 2GB card. check-in: d79a842547 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:42 | Swapped commands in "sudo time" constructs in bosi so we use the calling shell's builtin version instead of /usr/bin/time, since at least on macOS, the builtin's output is clearer. Tweaked the prior commands to ensure that we don't count the time taken while sudo is blocking waiting for a psssword input against the time taken by the elevated command. check-in: 1ef732c32c user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:36 | Merged more trunk tweaks in check-in: 50be8bd991 user: tangent tags: release, v20210214 | |
| 02:36 | Comment tweak check-in: 4a67ec5806 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 01:59 | Documented need for prior commit's change in the release process doc. check-in: fba31778b0 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 01:58 | Updated "stretch" to "buster" in tools/bosi check-in: f0461538d2 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 01:27 | Had to reorder and update some of the steps in "bosi prepare" to make it work on the current Rasperry Pi OS version. check-in: aeac6fa347 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 00:58 | More tweaks to the BOSI process. check-in: 356fc7e331 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 00:14 | Merged trunk tweaks in check-in: d6d2943cec user: tangent tags: release, v20210214 | |
| 00:02 | Upped minimum SD card requirement from 2GB to 8GB after "bosi init" failed with an out-of-space message on the "apt upgrade" step, even after removing the biggest disk hogs we can most do without. The Foundation recommends 8GB, so we now do, too. check-in: 0136f1193f user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 06:13 | Reworked the way the Python missing module detection stuff works so it generates the proper module names on Debian Buster. Dropped recommendation of easy_install (semi-obsolete) and rewrote the advice it emits to be a bit clearer. check-in: 76133aacd0 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 23:43 | "file link" doesn't exist in Jim Tcl, so the new symlink recreation stuff doesn't work when configured without "real" tclsh available. check-in: 1eb3e88ec3 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 23:29 | tools/autosetup-update now removes the contents of autosetup/* before doing its work so we track upstream deletions properly. This results in a lot of files being deleted, but it looks like it's a result of files being merged, rather than removal of functionality. The configure script appears to run still... check-in: 2dbb85383b user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 23:08 | Fix for c23c91bdd. Futil was matching on the size of the file being edited. Now the regex that skips over the file has been refined. check-in: e96b7f3637 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 22:56 | Year fix in ChangeLog: it's 2021 now, really! check-in: 77a8cc35a2 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 22:07 | Cherrypicked the last two changes on the bogus file-renaming branch down to trunk. check-in: 25d04173ec user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 22:06 | Redo of [e0af34dd55] atop fixed parent. check-in: a38bb07eca user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 22:04 | Retry commit [ccb4c54bb2], without the inadvertent reversion of the Advent filename case folding fixes. check-in: d02c0ede5a user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 21:55 | Removed the last remaining symlinks, being those for CC8's init.h and libc.h files, which CC8 always looks for in the CWD, yet which need to exist in 3 different places. Creating symlinks for the other two at configure time so we no longer need those making checkouts to "fossil set allow-symlnks 1" to avoid screwiness. Closed-Leaf check-in: 3fcbc85340 user: tangent tags: file-renaming | |
| 21:21 | Added tools/simh-bisect.in to INFILES in Makefile.in so clean builds and such work properly. (Probably harmless, but no point letting that list drift from the corresponding on in auto.def.) check-in: 8197e6123d user: tangent tags: file-renaming | |
| 21:10 | Renamed the old .agignore files to .ignore. (This is why we couldn't commit them to the repo at the same time as previous: does Fossil remove before rename, or vice versa?) check-in: e0af34dd55 user: tangent tags: file-renaming | |
| 21:09 | Removed the .ignore symlnks. (Purposefully separate from next step, so there isn't a naming conflict.) check-in: ccb4c54bb2 user: tangent tags: file-renaming | |
| 20:53 | Merged trunk in Leaf check-in: d022dae222 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 20:53 | Re-lowercased src/advent/* (excepting README.md) check-in: 5bab882cd4 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 18:39 | Updated the Fossil instructions in the contribution guide to track recent upstream changes. check-in: a15213d710 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 09:33 | Merged trunk changes in check-in: 0748329823 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 09:25 | Several cleanups to the "make clean" target: removing bin/*.rk05 generically rather than a long list of explicit names, so we always remove everything we built; removed several redundant TU56 entries since we were already removing bin/*.tu56 for the same reason; and removed a few generated files from the repo so they don't show up as MISSING after a "make clean". If these latter aren't being regenerated properly after being removed, that's a reconfig issue, not a reason to check the last generated version in. check-in: 44ace29ebe user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:32 | Lowercased all the file names in pspec/advent.pspec to match their new case in the repo. Without this, the build only succeeds on systems with case-insensitive filesystems like macOS, and then only with the default FS options. check-in: c425495e2c user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:01 | The simh-update tool could put diffs for non-managed files into the patch, which would complicate patch application. This is especially problematic in bisecting, since it increases the "footprint" of the patch needlessly, increasing the risk of bad merges on switching versions in place. check-in: 7e2e92698e user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 05:26 | Merged trunk changes in so I can run simh-bisect on the branch. check-in: 98b3c85a50 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 04:27 | New tool: simh-bisect, a companion to simh-update for bisecting upstream SIMH changes against our local PiDP-8/I patches. check-in: 0a19e8889c user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 03:57 | New SIMH had extra whitespace in attach output. One place in os8script was not robust about that. Fixed now. check-in: 40717103a9 user: poetnerd tags: simh-update | |
| 03:28 | Sync advent sources from new upstream at poetnerd.com: Source names are in lower case. There are a couple typos fixed: advent.dc and getwrd.ra. There is a runad.bi script, but it appears incompatible with the version of BATCH we have. There is also a clear.bi script, but it's also probably out of sync with reality. check-in: 1d9cb9aa3e user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 00:51 | Updated Autosetup to 0.7.0+ check-in: 5d15b9ec74 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |
| 00:43 | Updated ChangeLog for the imminent release check-in: 600a9459a8 user: tangent tags: simh-update | |

| 00:41 | Updated SIMH to GH commit 2f66e74c506420959d2591ffd1700a9b58d59f28. EDIT: Moved to the simh-update branch since it breaks clean builds. (Worked fine prior to commit due to preexisting RK05 and TU56 media that didn't get rebuilt as part of testing.) check-in: e3aba3706e user: tangent tags: simh-update | |

| 23:10 | Fixed a problem with LOAD_ADD + EXAM interactions due to use of IR instead of MB register in the tail end of the PDP-8 CPU instruction decoding loop. We use IR instead high up in the loop for an early display update, but that's because MB isn't settled yet. Without this, you can get bogus MB displays, per bug [7ae7a73744c9c0], which this closes. check-in: 709bc3a7f6 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 19:15 | Moved the sshd config instructions into doc/OS-images.md, since README.md primarily covers the build-from-source option, where the step isn't actually necessary.

| 03:57 | os8script class document is complete. The demo program is moved to its permanent location. check-in: 77a525a884 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 02:49 | Changed os8script.check_and_run to have an optional replies arg. Fleshed out and commented the demo program. Cleaned up document. TODO: 1. move the demo to its permanent home. 2. Write the documentation to point to it. 3. The proofreading, grammar, etc. check-in: 25dc789408 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 05:24 | Created a demo program for the os8script class. Along the way I realized that the housekeeping was needlessly complex, and should be added to the os8script class. By way of a test I moved cleanup code from os8-progtest to os8script. The class document has moved forward but is still not ready. The example needs to be cleaned up, and the appropriate smoothings of best practices need to be documented: 1. The recommended os8.check_and_run method assumes you're running the command decoder, and needs to be taught about the arrays of responses. Otherwise: 2. The use of the response arrays requires calling os8.simh.os8_cmd to run commands. The use of send_string, send_command, and os8_cmd is not orthogonal, and isn't using the respnse arrays where it could. check-in: 23d51abbd5 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 19:50 | Add documentation of the --exitfirst option and the work-around for long output. check-in: 0c003f5ef9 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 19:15 | I found a way to kick the basic games tests when they stall: Send a newline, and then cope with extra newlines in output. check-in: d2feb4a20c user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 04:23 | Added 'make test'. auto.def looks for tests for the packages it builds. Makefile runs them. Along the way I learned that tests with lots of output like basic-games:snoopy and basic-games:bunny sometimes randomly hang up. It looks like pexpect is returning a partial read on the output. I've experimented with the maxread argument to pexpect spawn, and with pausing for a second between tests. But the tests are still flaky. For this snapshot I've got them commented out of basic-games.yml while I ponder reponses. Also fixed a mistake I made in -x option: I wasn't calling clean_quit to exit and so I was leaving temp files. check-in: f212194966 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 03:02 | Add --exitfirst, -x to exit with -1 status on FIRST failure. This will be useful when we want to run all tests but blow out if one fails. Let's blow out on the first failure. check-in: a8991d9a8a user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 02:40 | os8-run manages context. We do not need resume. It was commented out of dist-rk05.os8. Deleted now. It is now deleted from src-rk05.os8. This may rid us of a race condition where we're doing resume but don't need to. check-in: e92c4bb634 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 05:01 | I must have gotten confused with the merge of trunk. I thought I moved the tests to scripts/os8-progtest/. Now they're moved for real. Next step in production: shift os8-progtest to os8-progtest.in so we parameterize the Python version. check-in: b5df9631af user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 04:51 | Further cleanup to make os8-progtest ready for production use: 1. Change failure to print failure and continue on to other tests. 2. Correct comments about escape characters. 3. Move the test .yml files from tools/testing to scripts/os8-progtest. 4. Add a --srcdir option, and properly expand the path for finding the test files. 5. Document usage of the program and creation of the state machine files in doc/os8-progtest.md check-in: 11b7f30c67 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 16:53 | Added a "config" parameter, and if config contains "slow" then wait .05 seconds between sending each character. This enables interaction with uwfocal without overrunning keyboard buffer. This structure can be expanded... check-in: ed4d5840ec user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 05:50 | Since we can print the File not found error, we should be able to print the user error output similarly. check-in: 1472e398b9 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 05:38 | code cleanup: Pulled common test and run code from ocomp, pal8 and os8 commands into a single method. This also fixes that pal8 and ocomp tested for simh context too late to be useful Eliminated redundant testing of results. Taught ocomp how to report WHICH file is not found (using code from pal8_command I'd forgotton I had.) Note that there STILL seems to be a race condition in the os8 command with regards to ^C out of some commands. I tried to chase it down but have not yet found it. check-in: aeb9b2026e user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 01:31 | Improved os8pkg verify command. Uses new `ocomp` os8-run command. Documentation is updated for both tools. Test script for the ocomp command. Fixed a bug I introduced when I changed the os8script API: Need to pass in the script_path for error reporting. Oops. check-in: 5910fa4e4c user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 04:53 | A bit of cleanup to the internal structure of main: Startup of os8script runner is make into a subroutine that's called once when needed.

We copy more documentation in now. There is other stuff we could build. But that is for another day. check-in: a421a7ee91 user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |

| 17:51 | Reorganized calls to umount in v3d/dist-rk05.os8. This unearthed a bug: following a umount command with a cpto or cpfrom command would pause and then timeout. Root cause: os8_pip_to and os8_pip_from were unconditionally calling esc_to_simh, and then calling simh_cmd that would check context and call it only if necessary. Fixed. Also corrected comment naming os8_pip_from ans os8_pip_to, and added some more pass-in of debug status. Removed install of music into dist in preparation for conversion to pspec. Added test/cpto.os8 as test case for this bug fix. check-in: 11fc9182d0 user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |

| 19:25 | Refinement to basic-games packaging: 1. Hacked README.md with a broad sword to shrink lines below 140 characters so that we could use PIP ASCII mode to copy it in. 2. Added a rm -f line to basic-games.pspec to delete the old .tu56 image file. 3. Fixed a bug in os8pkg so that #2 would work. check-in: f9134d40c3 user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |

| 03:48 | Remove media/os8/subsys/ba.tu56 binary blob. Instead use os8pkg to manage the basic games src/basic-games. Change name of subsystem for configuration from "ba" to "basic-games". Makes use of the "build" construct in os8pkg to use an os8-cp command instead of requiring creation of scripts/misc/basic-games.os8 whose sole purpose would be to populate a distribution .tu56 image.

| 20:58 | Remove debugging messages from auto.def check-in: 1bb8cbf96f user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |
| 20:32 | Found a place to put the "-include obj/os8pkg/*.mk" such that build works. Note that putting the include too early breaks EVERYTHING. check-in: 72eeb74e17 user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |
| 20:04 | Snapshot: Some cleanups. (Still some debugging to remove.) I understand conceptually what to do, but so far the concept simply breaks the install. First attempt to move the include of obj/os8pkg/*.mk enabled building of e8.tu56, but broke the rest of the build. check-in: b70257ba80 user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |
| 03:35 | This should fix the failure to build packages but it does not. auto.def now defines OS8_PKGS_All and populates it with all found packages. os8pkg now uses a high level name for the package file because it knows the format, but auto.def and Makefile.in do not. Alghough V3D_RUNTIME and OCK_RUNTIME depend on PKGS_INCLUDE, and PKGS_INCLUDE depends on OS8_PKGS_ALL, the packages do not build. check-in: cd6da4c92c user: poetnerd tags: os8pkg | |

| 15:40 | Moved the generation of bin/os8-run from its .in version up from the block at the end of auto.def to just before the call to test-os8-run, which requires os8-run to exist. Without this, you have a chicken-and-egg problem in fresh working trees. check-in: 8d9c504067 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 04:58 | Complete first draft! auto.defs takes responsibility for createing and keeping updated .mk and .os8 files from all pspec files found. Makefile.in knows how to generate a pkgs.os8 file that is used by boot-rk05.os8 in the v3d and ock directories. e8 and cc8 seem correctly still to be installed on that boot media. TODO: 1. Clean out the stuff from Makefile.in that's no longer needed. 2. Create .pspec files for more packages, such as ADVENT. 3. Investigate using this system to manage ock build from source.

| 02:18 | Having re-organized around OS8_TOOLTIME, the scripts need to be converted from using v3d.rk05 to v3d-patched.rk05, the OS8_TOOLTIME pack. Perhaps the .os8 scripts should be converted to .os8.in scripts that would use an OS8_TOOLTIME auto.def. check-in: a4a0a1aabc user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |
| 01:27 | Subtle mistake: OS8_RK05S needs V3D_RUNTIME and OCK_RUNTIME. It had OS8_RUNTIME which might be one or the other. I don't know where the dependencies would go if use-ock were set. Right now we unconditionally build both. check-in: d11565ea4f user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 22:49 | Fixed a serious bug in an undocumented change made in v2019.04.25: the handler for SING_STEP + IF (restart with boot script #IF) changed from just jamming a "DO" command into SCP for the new boot script to re-execing the simulator with the same script name. This ensures a clean simulator, rather than starting the new script atop the old dirty simulator, but there was a flaw: execl() call was missing the trailing NULL sentinel, potentially allowing the kernel to walk off the end of the call stack. This may explain some problems people have had getting their PiDP-8/I to switch OSes via this mechanism.

The standard way to buld EABRTS.BN is to use TTY: as a PAL8 input file, and to type "EAE=1". Instead I added EAEDEF.PA and build with it. check-in: 87cbc11ba5 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 04:10 | Improved error reporting. Improved robustness in cdprog: Notices if sending escape fails and tries ^C. This works around problems with running EPIC. I'm considering adding a test for '$' at the end of a cdprog line, as a way to mean, "Send escape, and expect to return to monitor level." It will be cleaner for many things. Alas Epic doesn't do that either. It insists on getting an escape to the command decoder to do its work properly. (Otherwise it sometimes just produces no output.) And then after it gets that escape, it returns to the commmand decoder with its in-core image still corrupted by the previuos comparison!

| 21:14 | Fixed benign but long-standing bug in all-tu56.os8: There was a DT mount/umount in the td8e sections. Because the relevant .tu56 image was already mount it was just an error that showed up in the logs. check-in: d14aa78ca1 user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |

| 16:55 | Found source of unexpected output from v3d-rk05.os8. Was not a long-standing bug. I forgot about having to context switch when flipping between simh and os8 commands. I've added better reminder comments. At issue: simh.py would figure stuff out and send a "cont" command, but that command would not always succeed quickly enough, and the first command after context switching would get messed up. check-in: 4b819965ad user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |
| 15:33 | Removed the "sleep(0.02)" hack in teco-pi-demo, since earlier work on this branch removes the need for it. Worked twice here in testing, at least. check-in: 15fc966a2b user: tangent tags: flip-expect | |
| 14:37 | Cleanup: Deleted old PAL8 code from os8script.py.in Documented removal of os8-run limitations. Note: the os8 command has a .5 second delay after an error. This fixes an observed race condition where we send ^C after an error before there's an OS/8 ready to hear it. Error reporting is so good now that I think I see a long-standing bug in scripts/v3d-rk05.os8: Removal of SYS:FORLIB.RL fails. I think it always failed but I'll investigate. check-in: 6850ec9fe9 user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |

| 01:37 | Shifted resume's work into simh.py.in. Documented current behavior of resume. Changed approach to outputting what the "os8" command gets: Instead of conditionalizing on self.verbose, I added an enablement keyword "transcript", and documented its operation in os8-run.md. Now I'm exploring if we can simply get rid of the pal8 command. Along the way, I discovered how the os8 command could fall out of sync if it encountered an error. This code remedies that, I think, but needs more testing. check-in: 68296b70c5 user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |

2020-05-06
| ||
| 14:21 | Got resume with simh "cont" command working. The trick was to expect the echo of "cont\n" and then do os8_kbd_wait(). Added a verbose mode to the "os8" command to print the output. TODO: Add a command to os8-run to turn verbose on and off. Probably through a keyword "verbose" arg to enable. I have to think about whether I want a quiet mode that overrides verbose. What I want is a mode where I can turn command result display on and off. I think the current "verbose" flag is more of a less verbose debug flag. check-in: dd813fc8e9 user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |
| 05:54 | Pruned the methods from simh.py.in and os8script.py.in that I wanted to get rid of. That meant that test-os8-send-file goes away, since it tests stuff that I've gotten rid of: os8_get_file and os8_send_file. os8_pip_to and os8_pip_from are now the preferred APIs. I've further cleaned up the PAL8 command. Both the 2 and 3 arg forms now pass detailed error status back up to the printout from the running script. There's a draft of new regular expressions for the pal8 command that are aimed at removing a lot of the current limitations. There's an update to doc/os8-run.md that drops mention of problems and limits that have gone away with the flipped expect. check-in: c3896bd487 user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |
| 02:34 | There's sometimes a race condition when you send escape: Sometimes instead of getting "\n\\.$" you get "\n\\.$\\.$" To detect the race condition I currently label it "Monitor Escape". After I'm sure this is what is happening, I'll re-label it as "Monitor Prompt" at which point any log harvesting will not see any difference. check-in: 600278db4f user: poetnerd tags: flip-expect | |

Instead we have: simh_send_line that says it relies on the caller to run expect to determine success and simh_cmd that calls simh_send_line and checks return. The only time we needed simh_send_line here was in do_simh_show where we parsed the output of the show command.

It means calling build like 4 times to built the td12k tu56 image, but it NEVER gets confused. Additionally I'm experimenting with a "cdprog1" command that knows you return to the monitor instead of the command decoder. os8_send_cmd then looks for when its looking for the monitor dot prompt, and if it gets "\n.$." it suggests using cdprog1 instead.

| 00:17 | Snapshot. Gross. Turning on error diagnostics tickles some nasty race between pexpect and emulation of the TD8E DECtape. To work around this I created a kludge command in os8-run called "Sleep." When I set the sleep delay to 0.2 seconds things work with the TD8E build. Any lower and you get meaningless random "TA0 DOES NOT EXIST" errors. This checkin has additional debugging print statements that need to go away. I must ponder, but I wanted to at least save this snapshot. check-in: 1780dbf1c1 user: poetnerd tags: os8-uni | |

| 04:34 | Now builds a significant chunk of the CUSPS. To build TECO I needed os8-run to pass the /W argument. So I fixed os8script.in to no longer have the limit of not passing in any PAL8 arguments. (I updated the doc.) Along the way, I discovered why I wanted that pal8 command. The 2 arg form of PAL8 hangs the state machine when attempted from either the os8 command or the begin cdprog construct. The "ERRORS DETECTED X\n\rLINKS GENERATED X\n\r." output confuses expect. I've also checked in the build tester I use for each CUSP as I integrate it into uni-cusps-build.os8. Doing a monolithic build is required because if there were multiple make lines parallel make would get into all kinds of nasty race conditions with the output rk05 image being modified in multiple processes simultaneously. check-in: 5d9e6f4434 user: poetnerd tags: os8-uni | |

This should not interfere with terminal escapes from the simulator since dtach should be scanning for this only from the terminal *input* side. If someone comes up with a reason that SIMH or the simulated software needs Ctrl-\ for its own purposes, we can change the detach character to something else. check-in: e13467f10a user: tangent tags: screen-mgr-none-dtach | |

This is a branch because it conflicts with the current tip-of-trunk and because it's not yet tested on a Pi 4.

Now following the current advice: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/peripheral_addresses.md Doing this in the hopes that it fixes the compatibility problem with the Pi 4, but if it doesn't, this is probably the correct thing anyway.

| 11:58 | Untested application of Ian Schofield's LED dithering patch, which replaces the NLS mode with a different PWM-based incandescent lamp simulator scheme than either his original ILS or my "new ILS," intended to give much the same effect while using less host CPU power, so that it can run on a Pi Zero. This checkin is very different from the patch as posted on the mailing list, but I *think* it implements the same core algorithm. It's untested because while I have a PiDP-8/I front panel and a Pi Zero W here, I don't want to tear my PiDP-8/I apart to put the two together. That's and many other reasons are why this is on a branch. check-in: de6d1f5a43 user: tangent tags: pi-zero-ils | |

| 08:56 | Changed the systemd service from "Type=oneshot" to "notify" allowing us to use systemd-notify to tell it when the service has successfully started and communicate the screen(1) PID to it. This greatly improves the reliably of systemctl commands on the background service. This solves some of the problems that lead to ticket [ce9ea9c96]. check-in: f9a56691d8 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 11:12 | Adjusted the "make release" process so that the version tag ends up on the release branch, not on trunk, so that "fossil up vYYYYmmDD ; fossil up" results in the user staying on the release branch.

| 12:32 | The new "pidp8i stop" implementation failed on a real PiDP-8/I because scanswitch fails when the simulator's running. Switched to a different method for detecting which simulator executable is running. check-in: 10339e6b1a user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 11:33 | Rewrote "pidp8i stop" to send a SIGINT, wait 2 seconds, then SIGKILL to make use of the new savestate mechanism and hopefully close ticket [ce9ea9c96a]. (Checking it in to try on an actual PiDP-8/I next.) If savestate mode is disabled, we skip the first two steps and go straight to SIGKILL: this could lose data, but until SIMH gets proper SIGTERM support, this is the best we can do. check-in: 98a0b0305a user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 11:29 | Fixed a few bugs in the new savestate.script: the ON ERROR handler doesn't help, and Ctrl-E CONT would cause a reboot. check-in: 780af010e3 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 10:12 | Removed a pointless "ECHO" from the new boot/savestate.script file. check-in: 4810c085f8 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 10:09 | Added the --enable-savestate configuration option, conditionally making use of SIMH's SAVE/RESTORE feature and the new Autosetup @include/@define feature to provide parameterized core/register/device state saving and restoration on simulator restarts. check-in: 555b5e5f8d user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 10:07 | Added @include and @define features to Autosetup's template file processor. This is being pushed upstream as the template-include branch, but we're checking it in here rather than wait for our PR to be accepted because a) we don't want to wait; and b) it might be rejected, and our subsequent checkin requires this feature to work as it currently does. check-in: 3ea0b1ea99 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 07:25 | Updated SIMH again: we need the recent fix to ON ERROR handling. check-in: e5ae989411 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:17 | Fixed something checked into previous: we added $0 to a "chmod -x $(stuff)" line so there was always something to chmod -x if the subshell returned nothing to avoid a complaint from chmod about getting no args, but $0 should always have +x. Changed it to auto.def, something that should never be +x. check-in: 7e0d206df8 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 06:15 | Updated Autosetup to tip-of-master (post 0.6.9) in preparation for adding a new feature to it. This changes the syntax for @if expressions, so this checkin includes updates to the two affected boot/*.script files. check-in: 190c00fe14 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 08:24 | scanswitch was returning -1 on no GPIO, which is 255 on macOS at least, which means the test for "no GPIO" in bin/pid8pi wouldn't get hit properly.

| 06:27 | First steps to getting os8-run working with Python 3: this is all of the print() calls. (print() is a function in Python 3, not a keyword as in prior versions, so it requires parens around its arguments, always.) This is the start of a new branch because this won't be the only thing needed to get these programs working under Python 3. This is needed on my macOS box because Anaconda Distribution installs Python 3 as "python", which is arguably wrong, but hopefully we can get os8-run and its helper libraries into a state where they run on both versions so this won't matter any more. This checkin *also* accidentally includes a SIMH update, because I was in the middle of the SIMH update and got distracted by fixing the Python 2-isms and accidentally checked the SIMH changes in as well. The SIMH update should have been on trunk only. I'll fix that on this branch a bit down the line. check-in: 05bd569e5e user: tangent tags: os8-run-python3 | |

| 11:55 | Many improvements to the CC8 user manual. Basically, I began re-reading it from the top, improving it along the way with my new understanding of CC8. check-in: 0316450b57 user: tangent tags: cc8-octal-output | |
| 09:08 | Rewrote the history section at the top of the CC8 manual to give a better arc. check-in: 694c027652 user: tangent tags: cc8-octal-output | |
| 08:55 | Updated the CC8 user manual to cover the new octal output default. check-in: 84f718936e user: tangent tags: cc8-octal-output | |
| 08:12 | Squished the bug that prevents this branch from generating code that runs properly: I overlooked the #defines in libc.h which are treated by the compiler as text, not as C integers, so that integer indices emitted in the generated SABR code for calling into LIBC were in decimal but were then interpreted by SABR as octal. If this gave syntactically correct code, it would call the wrong function for every function past index 7. The fact that we never saw it generate syntactically incorrect code merely reflects the fact that we didn't happen to call any functions that used decimal indexes that have no corresponding octal interpretation, a possibility only 1/5 of the time.

| 11:30 | Ian smacked me with a clue-bat: there are *several* zero pages, and their usages do not conflict! Fixed several bits in the CC8 user manual that resulting from this confusion. (This also explains why the discrepancies between INIT and LIBC's globals don't matter: they're in different fields!) check-in: 3ae7245274 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 10:44 | First pass at making CC8 emit octal in SABR output only, and to convert the decimal constants in the static SABR code within header.sb, libc.c, and init.h to octal. This also gets rid of all the DECIM directives, since SABR defaults to OCTAL mode. This is on a branch because the result doesn't yet run correctly, and I'm out of time trying to figure out why. check-in: ce071e8713 user: tangent tags: cc8-octal-output | |
| 09:33 | Found yet a *third* copy of the CC8 ABSYM table! These fixups allow the cross-compiler to produce code that links to LIBC properly. That then highlit some differences in the INIT code between header.sb and init.h, the latter of which has both more code and more globals. Mainly fixing this involves packing the new globals up tight against those that init.h shares in common with header.sb and libc.c, but also a change to the docs to reduce the space available to the [f]printf() buffer yet again. check-in: 778e8ff4ec user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 08:48 | Fixed indents in CC8 init.h and header.sb: I've been fighting with these hard tabs all night, and I'm sick of it. They're space indents now, per HACKERS.md. check-in: e289bdbe25 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 08:32 | Merged cc8-libc-zp-reorg branch down to trunk. It appears to be stabilized now. check-in: b0097f70c6 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 08:01 | Merged VC8E OPDEF stuff up from trunk to reduce unnecessary diffs Closed-Leaf check-in: 2d4b00518f user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |
| 07:58 | Merged VC8E OPDEF feature for CC8 LIBC down from the cc8-libc-zp-reorg fix, where it's out-of-place. check-in: 23f886388e user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 07:04 | Fixed a CPAGE directive in libc.c that could potentially lead to the LIBC entry point call table being split across pages. check-in: 64f9c6e820 user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |
| 03:55 | Checkin [228e1c8b3a] added a comment ending in an exclamation point to HEADER.SB, which is perfectly legal in SABR, but it breaks a hidden contract between the CC0 and CC2 stages of the native compiler, wherein a '!' character terminates the preamble part of the CASM.TX output! This caused un-assemblable SABR output, because everything after that in HEADER.SB got chopped off. (Actually, it was probably treated as the start of the first inline assembly block.) check-in: ae9dda1ecb user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |
| 03:31 | Decided to move the LIBC globals previously moved into 10002 thru 10007 to the end of the field 1 zero page, so we can dedicate these 8 locations for user code. Otherwise, user code has no zero page locations they can safely use, which seems rather grabby of us. check-in: ca6257496b user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |
| 03:13 | Cherrypicked [52aa88863c] onto trunk, primarily to ensure that those with recent trunk checkouts don't get unexpectedly sent to branch cc8-cleanups. This change is harmless to have in both places. check-in: 0c7432da84 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:50 | Checkin [1ea9133a37] is incomplete: the CC8 native compiler's HEADER.SB file contains a duplicate of the ABSYM declarations in libc.c, shared between the two CC8 compilers; they need to match! It's not clear to me the consequences of these two not matching, since our tests didn't fail earlier, but there's also no good reason for these to differ. Added comments to reduce the chance of these two pieces of code drifting apart again. check-in: 228e1c8b3a user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |

| 01:23 | Moved [f]printf() buffer down into the otherwise sparsely used zero page, and rearranged the constants previously declared there to make better use of the space available. This then opens another half-page of space for the stack. Updated docs to cover all of this. EDIT: This is the start of a new branch because this checkin breaks some things, and some of the subsequent checkins destabilize CC8. I'm moving it to a branch until all that's fixed. check-in: 1ea9133a37 user: tangent tags: cc8-libc-zp-reorg | |

| 04:46 | Changed all uses of fprintf() in src/cc8/os8/p8.c that don't use printf() format specifiers to fputs() instead, saving 200 core memory locations due to the lower amount of stack manipulation required to call a straight function with a single parameter. check-in: 0b3919909f user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 04:18 | sprintf() now returns -1 when it hits an unknown format specifier, as cppreference says it should. This is actually smaller than the prior code, which incorrectly returned the number of characters written so far and then failed to terminate the output string. cppreference doesn't say we should terminate the output string in this condition, but the error return is enough to clue the user in that they shouldn't use the output string. check-in: 7e5e3a226d user: tangent tags: trunk | |

Also removed cc8-tu56-update, referred to by that section, since it's now replaced by media/os8/scripts/cc8-tu56.os8. check-in: b58ecf4ec5 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 04:56 | Moved a sentence down to make the CC8 doc flow better. check-in: f9acd37731 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 04:48 | The documentation for the way fopen() in CC8's LIBC treats file name extensions was wrong. It may *still* be wrong, but I think it's *less* wrong, at least. check-in: daa54b854a user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 04:09 | Documented LIBC's strstr(), fixed a bug in its implementation discovered while comparing that implementation to our C reference, and clarified the whole "0-terminated word string" vs "NUL-terminated character string" thing. check-in: 3f02d1675d user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 03:09 | Documented revcpy(), strcpy() and strcat() in CC8's LIBC. check-in: fe8674b377 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:36 | Clarified matters related to the stock CC8 include files libc.h and init.h in the manual. check-in: 8a7bc70515 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:25 | The cc8-tu56.os8 script was not copying CCR.BI to DSK:, as earlier CC8 systems did. This invalidates all of the CC8-based test exemplars yet again. Sigh. check-in: 904e54195b user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 01:58 | Moved the inline assembly and calling convention section of cc8-manual.doc down to be near the Memory Model section, where it better belongs. Lots of improvements to the text after the move. check-in: f1e351cfb8 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 21:59 | Finished the first pass on the CC8 LIBC docs in cc8-manual.md. This adds *some* documentation for every function, without any intention that it be complete at this point. Some points previously made elsewhere within the document (mainly in the lists of limitatios) are moved into this new section. Also expanded the section on inline assembly and the CC8 calling convention, since figuring out as much of LIBC as I have revealed much to me as I went. check-in: 19339280aa user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 20:30 | Another cc8/cross update from Ian Schofield. Addresses bug a4123bb743, making the cross compiler at last allow typed function declarations. cc8 now builds silently with -Wall. Supporting struct in the pdp-8 target had a storage management bug that is now fixed. The void type is now added to cc8. The resulting native C compiler for OS/8 is unchanged -- bit for bit identical, because that code does not use any of the enhancements to the cc8 cross compiler. check-in: dc687b9f08 user: poetnerd tags: smc85-cc8 | |

| 02:52 | Documented that --disable-os8-init now leaves INIT.TX and INIT.CM out of the disk image. It used to generated them but then not set the message to be displayed, arguing that you should be able to re-enable it later without regenerating the OS/8 media. check-in: 44b6675c0a user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 02:22 | Greatly simplified the log sanitizer regexes for the SIMH ATTACH commands in test-os8-run. This invalidates the whole test corpus. check-in: d2e9ed2424 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 00:22 | The test-os8-run log sanitizer now suppresses the "Ctrl-F" message emitted by the latest SIMH console code, just merged in. Also cleaned up the formatting of the existing code in the log sanitizer. check-in: 18edbfc5a0 user: tangent tags: trunk | |

| 02:29 | New cc8.tu56, and complete refresh of tool chain to make it. What was in trunk would not build for a variety of reasons. This checkin fixes bugs: a3f875cd62 and c1719672d4. I was hoping it would fix ab0e67f1a5 (cc8-tu56-update nondeterministic) but it does not. check-in: 1f65fa2717 user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 04:21 | Need to define NOASLD. Otherwise cross exits with status 1 and breaks cc8-tu56-update. check-in: b3e27d0d6f user: poetnerd tags: smc85-cc8 | |
| 04:11 | Updated behavior of --disable-os8-init to match broader expectations: No longer installs init.cm and init.tx if disabled. Affects the 4 tu56 images also built. Note that @OS8_OPTS@ was not being used to build the 4 tu56 images until now. I expected that it was, but never passed them in.

| 21:07 | Checkin 44fac25071 broke bin/cc8-to-os8. That change back on 2018-01-20 was supposed to simply quit adding 'int' to declaration lines. Instead it caused the tool to quit producing any output at all. Here's a pull-up from my smc-85-cc8 branch where I fix the tool to generate the expected output: Suppress #include, but do nothing else. check-in: 6a0f8ef8bf user: poetnerd tags: trunk | |

| 16:51 | New code base for cc8/cross: SmallC-85. SmallC-85 is a revived and updated port of SmallC that is much cleaner. This version compiles on the Mac using clang silently without warnings, and runs well enough to generate .sb files that are functionally the same as what was generated on the non-portable cross. Carefully uses today's trunk as baseline. check-in: 385a16c7cc user: poetnerd tags: smc85-cc8 | |

| 12:57 | Fixed [b33f80acd8]: the Ctrl-E exit to the SIMH command prompt causes our new SIGINT handler to be called, which was not only turning off the LEDs but also shutting down the GPIO thread. That means that on sim re-entry, we'd refuse to turn the LEDs back on because the GPIO thread is no longer running. The fix is to turn LEDs off conditional only on whether the PiDP-8/I extensions are enabled, but to stop the GPIO thread only if we're going through the exit(3) path on handling SIGINT. check-in: 85596d132e user: tangent tags: trunk | |
| 12:17 | Fixed some pointless style differences between a mirrored pair of functions. No functional change. check-in: 1fdc270f88 user: tangent tags: trunk | |
