Add _TRA!, _THA!, _TRB!, _THB! routines to easily handle those pins'
value without stepping on other pins like the drivers previously
did. For SDC driver, it's going to be important soon because it turns
out that I can't get away with "always on" CS, so I'll need a scheme
where it's important that TH/TR pins have stable values.
Theoretically, it works. I can access an emulated SD card on it.
Will it work on real hardware?
I've also made SMS emulation faster. It was unbearably slow for SDC
access.
My idea of plugging a RC2014 bridge directly onto a Sega Master System
cartridge doesn't work. The SMS eats all I/O addr space, we can't use
it. Therefore, this naive idea, in the emulator, of reusing sdc.c in
sms.c as-is, doesn't work either.
I'll have to find another way of communicating to a SPI device on the
SMS. I'll probably do it through a controller port. Meanwhile, I need
to decouple SPI from SDC in the emulator code so that I can reuse
sdc.c. This is what is done here.
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.
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.
Working on programming AVR chips exposes a glaring omission in my
first design of the SPI Relay: not allowing multiple devices make
this task hard. I constantly have to unplug my SD card before, plug
the AVR chip holder, then play a bit, then unplug the AVR holder,
then replug the SD card...
My prototype for a SPI relay design is built, but I haven't tested
it yet. I need to adapt the code first, which is what I do here.
When the prototype is tested, I'll update the SDC recipe with a new
schema.
Only its jump at 0x33 remains.
I've also fixed a strange offset oddity in 8086's (n) placement.
It was off by 2, but strangely, it ran properly. Anyway, now it's
fixed.
Previously, recipes that began spitting binary contents before
loading block 282 would end up with VARIABLE code in their binary,
thus breaking them. We fix this by making this loading process
2-part.
This commit adds ?DUP IF guards to MOVE and MOVE- that make them exit
when u is 0. Without these guards a DO loop was executed 65535 times
instead of 0.
In particular, this fixes a crash when "105 LOAD I " is executed
immediately after boot. Block editor word "I" passes IBUF length (0)
to MOVE- and MOVE in this case, causing a crash.
Instead of having wordref point to core word routines, I made them
into word 4 word types. It liberates space into the stable ABI and
should make porting to other arches easier.
I'm also thinking of combining word type with the namelen field
for precious bytes saving, but not now...
