Detail:
  s/HAL - Reset_IRQ_Handler now uses HAL_IRQSource to determine the cause of the interrupt, using that value to work out which IIC bus (if any) generated the IRQ. If it's unrecognised it passes it to HAL_KbdScanInterrupt, and if that fails to do anything it'll disable the IRQ.
  This aims to fix the spurious "No XStart!" debug spam that the OMAP IIC drivers produce when the keyboard scan is running, and to fix the potential IIC breakage that could occur by the IIC code trying to clear the non-existant interrupt.
  Note that behaviour of HAL_KbdScanInterrupt has now been changed; it now accepts the device number in a1, and is expected to return either -1 (if the interrupt was handled) or the device number given as input (if the interrupt wasn't handled, e.g. not from a device managed by the keyboard scan code).

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.49. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_49'

Detail:
  A whole mass of changes to add high processor vectors + zero page relocation support to the Cortex branch of the kernel
  At the moment the code can only cope with two ZeroPage locations, &0 and &FFFF0000. But with a bit more tweaking those restrictions can probably be lifted, allowing ZeroPage to be hidden at almost any address (assuming it's fixed at compile time). If I've done my job right, these restrictions should all be enforced by asserts.
  There's a new option, HiProcVecs, in hdr/Options to control whether high processor vectors are used. When enabling it and building a ROM, remember:
  * FPEmulator needs to be built with the FPEAnchor=High option specified in the components file (not FPEAnchorType=High as my FPEmulator commit comments suggested)
  * ShareFS needs unplugging/removing since it can't cope with it yet
  * Iyonix users will need to use the latest ROOL boot sequence, to ensure the softloaded modules are compatible (OMAP, etc. don't really softload much so they're OK with older sequences)
  * However VProtect also needs patching to fix a nasty bug there - http://www.riscosopen.org/tracker/tickets/294
  The only other notable thing I can think of is that the ProcessTransfer code in s/ARM600 & s/VMSAv6 is disabled if high processor vectors are in use (it's fairly safe to say that code is obsolete in HAL builds anyway?)
  Fun challenge for my successor: Try setting ZeroPage to &FFFF00FF (or similar) so its value can be loaded with MVN instead of LDR. Then use positive/negative address offsets to access the contents.
  File changes:
  - hdr/ARMops - Modified ARMop macro to take the ZeroPage pointer as a parameter instead of 'zero'
  - hdr/Copro15ops - Corrected $quick handling in myISB macro
  - hdr/Options - Added ideal setting for us to use for HiProcVecs
  - s/AMBControl/allocate, s/AMBControl/growp, s/AMBControl/mapslot, s/AMBControl/memmap, s/AMBControl/service, s/AMBControl/shrinkp, s/Arthur2, s/Arthur3, s/ArthurSWIs, s/ChangeDyn, s/ExtraSWIs, s/HAL, s/HeapMan, s/Kernel, s/MemInfo, s/Middle, s/ModHand, s/MoreSWIs, s/MsgCode, s/NewIRQs, s/NewReset, s/Oscli, s/PMF/buffer, s/PMF/IIC, s/PMF/i2cutils, s/PMF/key, s/PMF/mouse, s/PMF/osbyte, s/PMF/oseven, s/PMF/osinit, s/PMF/osword, s/PMF/oswrch, s/SWINaming, s/Super1, s/SysComms, s/TickEvents, s/Utility, s/vdu/vdu23, s/vdu/vdudriver, s/vdu/vdugrafl, s/vdu/vdugrafv, s/vdu/vdupalxx, s/vdu/vdupointer, s/vdu/vduswis, s/vdu/vduwrch - Lots of updates to deal with zero page relocation
  - s/ARM600 - UseProcessTransfer option. Zero page relocation support. Deleted pre-HAL ClearPhysRAM code to tidy the file up a bit.
  - s/ARMops - Zero page relocation support. Set CPUFlag_HiProcVecs when high vectors are in use.
  - s/KbdResPC - Disable compilation of dead code
  - s/VMSAv6 - UseProcessTransfer option. Zero page relocation support.
Admin:
  Tested with OMAP & Iyonix ROM softloads, both with high & low zero page.
  High zero page hasn't had extensive testing, but boot sequence + ROM apps seem to work.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.48. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_48'

Detail:
  hdr/ARMops - Amended ARMvF description to state that an ARMvF CPU can be ARMv6 or ARMv7
  s/ARMops - Move ARM11JZF_S CPUDesc to KnownCPUTable_Fancy, since it's ARMvF. Update ARM_Analyse_Fancy to detect whether ARMv6 or ARMv7 style cache control is in use, and react accordingly.
  s/HAL - Simplified system control register/MMUC initialisation. There are now just two types of setup - one for ARMv3-ARMv5 and one for ARMv6-ARMv7. Modified HAL_InvalidateCache_ARMvF to use the appropriate cache flush instructions depending on whether it's an ARMv6 or ARMv7 style cache.
Admin:
  S3C6410 and other ARMv6 machines should work now.
  Tested on BB-xM rev A2.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.39. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_39'

Detail:
  Makefile - Added hdr.Variables to the C header export list
  hdr/ARMops, s/ARMops - Added ARM1176JZF-S to the list of known CPUs
  s/ARMops - Fix unaligned memory access in ARM_PrintProcessorType
  hdr/Copro15ops, s/ARMops, s/HAL, s/VMSAv6, s/AMBControl/memmap - Fixed all myDSB/myISB/etc. macro instances to specify a temp register, so that they work properly when building an ARMv6 version of the kernel
Admin:
  Fixes build errors with the latest Draw module.
  Should also allow the kernel to work properly with the new S3C6410 port.
  ARMv6 version builds OK, but no other builds or runtime tests have been made.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.38. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_38'

Detail:
  Makefile - Now exports a C version of hdr.OSEntries, for use by the new HAL USB drivers
  s/GetAll, s/Kernel - The HALSize env variable is now used in place of hard-coded values for the HAL size
  s/HAL - Reset_IRQ_Handler now switches to SVC mode before calling HAL_KbdScanInterrupt, to allow the HAL USB drivers to re-enable interrupts if they wish.
  s/VMSAv6 - Deleted some obsolete definitions
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 BB, A2 BB-xM, C1 TouchBook
  Needs latest BuildSys, Env, HdrSrc


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.37. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_37'

Detail:
  OS_IICOp (and in turn, RISCOS_IICOpV) now treat the top byte of R1 as containing the IIC bus number, allowing multiple buses to be used.
  hdr/KernelWS - Changed workspace a bit so that the kernel can support up to IICBus_Count buses (currently 3), each with its own IICBus_* block.
  s/HAL - Update Reset_IRQ_Handler to cope with interrupts from all IIC buses instead of just the first. Fix/update RISCOS_IICOpV description.
  s/NewIRQs - Update InitialiseIRQ1Vtable to set up interrupt handlers for all IRQ-supporting IIC buses
  s/NewReset - Get rid of the IICAbort call that was just before IICInit. IICInit now calls IICAbort itself.
  s/PMF/IIC - Bulk of the changes. Code now uses the IICBus_ structures instead of the IICStatus and IICType variables. Re-entrancy code has been updated to take into account the possiblity of multiple buses; when OS_IICOp calls are nested, the IIC transfers will be added to bus-specific queues instead of all going in the same queue. However only one queue will be processed at a time.
  s/ChangeDyn - Workspace shuffling means a couple of MOV's needed to be swapped with LDR's when getting immediate constants
Admin:
  Tested with OMAP & IOMD ROM builds.
  Both high & low-level bus types seem to work OK, along with re-entrancy, both on the same bus and on a different bus.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.33. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_33'

Detail:
  hdr/Options - ARM6support and GetKernelMEMC values are now derived from the value of MEMM_Type
  s/ARMops, s/HAL - Code to detect and handle ARMv7 CPUs is now only enabled when using VMSAv6 MMU model. Saves us from having to deal with lack of myIMB, myDSB, etc. implementations on pre-ARMv6.
  s/HAL - Removed some debug code
  s/NewReset - Fix bug spotted by Tom Walker where R12 wasn't being restored by LookForHALRTC if a non-HAL RTC had already been found
  s/AMBControl/memmap - correct the assert clause that was checking that &FFE are the correct L2PT protection bits for non-VMSAv6 machines
Admin:
  Tested this kernel on a rev C2 beagleboard & Iyonix softload. Also compiled it into an IOMD ROM, but didn't try running it.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.32. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_32'

Update Cortex kernel to use correct instruction/memory barriers and to perform branch target predictor maintenance. Plus tweak default CMOS settings.

Detail:
  hdr/Copro15ops - Added myISB, myDSB, myDMB macros to provide barrier functionality on ARMv6+
  s/ARMops, s/HAL, s/VMSAv6, s/AMBControl/memmap - Correct barrier operations are now performed on ARMv6+ following CP15 writes. Branch predictors are now also maintained properly.
  s/NewReset - Change default CMOS settings so number of CDFS drives is 0 in Cortex builds. Fixes rogue CDFS icon on iconbar.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.27. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_27'

Fix bug when creating code variables via OS_SetVarVal, remove errant line from s.ARM600, automatically enable alignment exceptions if NoUnaligned is TRUE (Cortex branch)

Detail:
  s/ARM600 - Removed an errant line that could have caused problems if the ARM600 MMU model was used with the WB_CR7_Lx cache type
  s/Arthur2 - OS_SetVarVal was failing to call XOS_SynchroniseCodeAreas after copying the code variables code block into the system heap. This has now been fixed.
  s/HAL - Alignment exceptions are now automatically enabled when the kernel is built with the NoUnaligned option turned on.
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard. OS_SetVarVal fix means the Debugger module now shows the right register names instead of ofla!


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.15. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_15'

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Fix IMB_Range_WB_CR7_Lx to clean the correct number of cache lines
  s/HAL - Change CP15 control register flags so unaligned loads are enabled on ARMv6 (to simplify support for ARMv7 where unaligned loads are always enabled, and to match the behaviour expected by the example code in Hdr:CPU.Arch)
  s/AMBControl/memmap - Make AMB_LazyFixUp use the correct L2PT protection flags depending on ARM600/VMSAv6 MMU model. Also guard against problems caused by future L2PT flag changes.
  s/vdu/vdugrafj - Fix previously undiscovered 32bit incompatability in GetSprite (OS_SpriteOp 14/16)
Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard

Admin:
  Tested on rev C2 beagleboard


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.4. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_4'

Detail:
  s/ARM600 - fix to SyncCodeAreasRange to correctly read cache line length for WB_CR7_Lx caches
  s/ARMops - Cortex cache handling fixes. Enable L2 cache for Cortex.
  s/ChangeDyn - VMSAv6 support in AllocateBackingLevel2
  s/HAL - Improve RISCOS_InitARM to set/clear correct CP15 flags for ARMv6/v7. VMSAv6 support in code to generate initial page tables.
  s/NewReset - Extra DebugTX calls during OS startup. Disable pre-HAL Processor_Type for HAL builds.
  s/VMSAv6 - Main VMSAv6 MMU code - stripped down version of s/ARM600 with support for basic VMSAv6 features.
  hdr/Options - Use VMSAv6 MMU code, not ARM600. Disable ARM6support since current VMSAv6 code will conflict with it.
Admin:
  Tested basic OS functionality under qemu-omap3 and revision B6 beagleboard.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.3. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_3'

Add support for Cortex cache type. Extend ARM_Analyse to, where appropriate, use CPU feature registers to identify CPU capabilities.

Detail:
  s/ARMops - Support for Cortex multi-level cache (CT_ctype_WB_CR7_Lx). New ARM_Analyse_Fancy to identify CPU capabilities using feature registers.
  s/HAL - Modify pre-ARMop cache code to handle Cortex-syle caches.
  s/MemInfo - Replace ARM_flush_TLB macro call with appropriate ARMop to provide Cortex compatability
  hdr/ARMops - Update list of ARM architectures
  hdr/CoPro15ops - Deprecate ARM_flush_* macros for HAL kernels, as they are no longer capable of flushing all cache types. ARMops should be used instead.
  hdr/KernelWS - Add storage space for multi-level cache properties required for new cache cleaning code.
Admin:
  Tested under qemu-omap3. Still unable to verify on real hardware due to lack of appropriate MMU code. However new OMAP3 HAL code that uses similar cache management functions appears to work fine on real hardware.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.2. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_2'

Now pads its HAL entry table with NullHALEntry if the HAL is providing fewer entries than the Kernel needs. Helps internal Kernel use of CallHAL, but doesn't affect external OS_Hardware users.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.67. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_67'

  [Not fully implemented - for now leaves at least 16MB free if only
  one RAM area; was 1MB].
* Added HAL_USBControllerInfo, HAL_MonitorLeadID and HAL_Video_Render.
* Added HAL->OS call OS_IICOpV.
* OS_MMUControl now allows independent control of I and C bits.

    fit full PCI locations in.
  * Defined lots of device "Type" values in Hdr:HALDevice.
  * Removed obsolete DMA-related HAL entries in Hdr:HALEntries (no longer
    required by DMAManager 0_15-4_4_2_6, no longer provided by Tungsten HAL
    0.07).
  * OS_Hardware 2 and 3 actually work now.
  * Changed OS_Hardware 4 to take a maximum major version number to match.
  * HAL workspace is now USR mode readable.
  * Service calls issued after module initialisation/finalisation (see
    Docs.ModPostServ).
Admin:
  OS_Hardware tested, service calls not tested.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.52. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_52'

Detail:
  Lots of changes since last version, at least the following:
  * Updated OS timestamp, removed alpha status
  * Negative INKEY OS version changed to &AA
  * GraphicsV is now alocated vector number &2A
  * ROM moved up to &FC000000
  * Max application slot increased to 512 Mbytes (for now)
  * Max size of RMA increased to 256 Mbytes
  * RMA is now first-created dynamic area (so it gets lowest address after
    top of application slot)
  * OS_Memory 10 reimplemeted
  * New OS_ReadSysInfo 6 values 18-22 added
  * OS_ReadSysInfo 8 gains flag bit to indicate soft power-off

    quarters of memory, rather than bottom half
  * Allocated 64-bit OS_Convert... SWIs
  * IIC errors use allocated error numbers
  * Looks for Dallas RTC before Philips RTC because we're using a Philips
    NVRAM device with the same ID
  * Fix to bug that meant the oscillator in the Dallas RTC wasn't enabled
  * Default mouse type (USB) changed to allocated number
  * Ram disc max size increased to 128 Mbytes (Ursula merge) and made
    cacheable for StrongARMs (not XScale)
  * Branch through zero handler now works in USR mode, by use of a
    trampoline in the system stack to allow PC-relative register storage
  * Address exception handler changed to not use 0 as workspace
  * OS_Memory 13 extended to allow specification of cacheability and access
    privileges
  * Added OS_Memory 16 to return important memory addresses

    bits 10 and 11, doubly-mapped flag in bit 20, and access permissions
    specified flag in bit 21
  * Bug fix in last version for application abort handlers didn't quite
    work; register shuffle required
  * "Module is not 32-bit compatible" error now reports the module name

    definitions, and allow for interrupt sharing.
  * Now uses OS_LeaveOS to trigger callbacks after ROM module init.
Admin:
  Untested. Requires new HAL.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.49. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_49'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.48. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_48'

1) Bring IOMD HAL more up to date. Add support for new call HAL_CleanerSpace (preparation for StrongARM kernel support).

2) In kernel, add HAL_CleanerSpace call (preparation for
StrongARM and XScale core support). Fix bug found with
ARMv3 support during test on Risc PC.

3) Implement new API for kernel SWIs that have used top
bits of addresses as flags. The new API has an extra
flag that must be set, so kernel can distinguish and
support both APIs. The reason for all this is that
addresses are 32-bits now, people, keep up there. Briefly:

  OS_HeapSort
    bit 31 of r0 set for new API, r1 is full 32-bit address
    flags move from r1 bits 31-29 to r0 bits 30-28

  OS_ReadLine
    bit 31 of r1 set for new API, r0 is full 32-bit address
    flags move from bits 31,30 of r0 to bits 30,29 of r1

  OS_SubstituteArgs
    bit 31 of r2 set for new API, r0 is full 32-bit address
    flag moves from bit 31 of r0 to bit 30 of r2

Tested on Risc PC and briefly on Customer A 2

Ta

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.41. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_41'

Look for LongCommandLine flag, command line size currently
set at 1k.
For HAL/32bit builds, the kernel buffer space is at high
(top bit set) address, which may break some code using signed
comparisons. So *beware* that there may be some latent
bugs in old kernel code using these buffers, not yet found.
One such bug, in s.Arthur2 found and fixed.
Tested moderately on ARM9 desktop build.
Lovely to reimplement things I did two and half years ago.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.37. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_37'

* Allows HAL-driven software resets.
* Sound buffers corrected to be uncacheable.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.33. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_33'

spectacular new OS_Memory reason codes 13 map permanent I/O space, return logical address 14 access temporary physical mapping 15 release temporary physical mapping

DA creation and I/O space creation now avoid collision if address
space fills

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.17. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_17'

Check-in of the few last-minute changes for the Customer L demo. Nothing exciting, apart from an extended touchscreen API.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.13. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_13'

More stuff. Up to the desktop now; cache on, working keyboard. Some source restructuring to start to make splitting it up into several object files more feasible.

Detail:
  Added the HAL NVRAM entries.
  Modified i2cutils to use the HAL entries for NVRAM and behave sensibly if the HAL reports that there is no NVRAM, in which case there must be a forced reset_cmos call so that the cache gets set up sensibly.
Admin:
  Tested under the RPC emulator and appears to be working correctly, although some calls to IIC are still being made in the no nvram case.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.8. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_8'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.2. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_2'

* Added ARM_IMB and ARM_IMBRange SWIs as recommended by ARMv5.
* Some early prototype HAL bits popped in - a lot of source restructuring still
  to come.
* New debug target creates an AIF image with debug information, and translates
  this into an ASCII object file for the 16702B logic analyser.
