Virgil Dupras 7001446212 Complete overhaul of recipes
Recipes contain bits and pieces of hardware-related knowledge, but
these bits feel sparse. I've been wanting to consolidate hardware-
related documentation for a while, but always fell at odds with the
recipes organisation.

We don't have recipes anymore, just a /doc/hw section that contains
hardware-related documentation which often translate to precise
instructions to run Collapse OS on a specific machine.

With this new organisation, I hope to end up with a better, more
solid documentation.

Virgil Dupras 705d68deec Move most of the high layer of comp core into the low one
With KEY and EMIT being switch words, most of the high layer can
be defined before drivers.

In addition to this change, I've compacted core blocks which were
becoming quite sparse.

Virgil Dupras 6947fea2a8 emul/z80: add SD card support to SMS
It works (in emulation, but soon on real hardware!), but the LIST
command is awkward due to tight screen estate...

Virgil Dupras 25a35cf28e Move 8086 boot code from B800 to B440
That slims down blkfs a lot.

Virgil Dupras 037c10fc57 Move AVR programmer from B690 to B160
Also, remove leftovers from previous move.

Virgil Dupras faf088b397 Move AVR assembler from B650 to B50
And move its doc to doc/asm.txt

Virgil Dupras b21be43535 Move 8086 assembler from B730 to B30
Also, move doc to doc/asm.txt.

Also, fix the pcat recipe which was broken since the overlay change.
I hadn't noticed it because I didn't have to rebuild the MBR.

Virgil Dupras 91f79d1131 Move z80a from B200 to B5
The idea is to consider assemblers as "runtime" apps instead of
placing them in the "bootstrap" section of the blocks. These apps
will be used for much more than bootstrapping.

Moved its documentation to doc/asm.txt and made its code blocks
more compact.

Virgil Dupras a348ee9106 Remove Extra words
The few extra bytes they save in the core aren't worth the extra
complexity. This was initially done in a context where I had
troubles keeping the RC2014 binary with SDC inside the 8K limit.

At this point, even with the few extra bytes we add here, we're at
7200 bytes, so I'd say we're fine.

Virgil Dupras 85f8543e17 avrspi: first steps
After having done my initial handshaking, I thought the rest of the
job was only a matter of implementing the protocol, but I was wrong.
There were many issues to fix before I could reliably communicate
with my 328P, mostly timing.

Now, I seem to be able to reliably extract fuse information, but
only in batch mode (that is, run "asp$ aspfl@" directly, then
running "(spid)" before running the next command). If I try to
interact with the chip in a single asp$ session, I sometimes get
wrong values (but no sync error! that's worrying...).

Virgil Dupras 124da6adec Move SD Card subsystem outside of RC2014 recipe and add protocols
Although the SPI Relay driver is RC2014-specific, the SD Card driver
is generic enough to be a subsystem. That's the second subsystem we
add and this warrants, I think, the formalization of a new concept:
protocols.

This is the first commit I do entirely in VE. It's a habit I'm planning
on taking as it helps a lot to find usability issues.

Virgil Dupras 4c1cacd8d0 Remove Linker
Now that the boot binary is fully cross-compiled, there's no use for
the linker anymore. Theoretically, it could still be useful, but I
can't think of a real use case.

Let's take it out of the picture. If it's ever needed again, I'll
know where to find it.

Virgil Dupras bd1e76ec5b Gather all RC2014 drivers into a single "RC2014 Recipe section" 2020-05-13 14:56:38 -04:00
Virgil Dupras 9b85961093 Rename "Core words" to "XPACKed core"
Now that this section is so small, I think I can see a possibility
for cross-compiling Collapse OS entirely, which would be great
because we could get rid of the relinker.
