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
  * Misc internal top-bit-set-address fixes
  * *ChangeDynamicArea can take sizes in megabytes or gigabytes
  * Magic word "&off" in R0 passed to OS_Reset powers down if possible
  * Added acceleration: block copy; CLS; text window scroll up; rectangle
    fill
  * Disabled LED flashing in page mode (liable to crash)
  * Masked sprite plot and VDU 5 text avoids reading the screen if poss...

Detail:
  * Implemented OS_Hardware 2, 3 and 4 as described in Docs.HAL.NewAPI.
  * Added new OS->HAL and HAL->OS routines to register HAL devices with the
    OS during hard resets.
  * Updated Docs.HAL.NewAPI to correct inconsistencies, fill in missing
    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'

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'

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.18. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_18'

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

kernel now attempts to substitute video mode numbers in face of h/w with limited bits-per-pixel support (not tested yet)

HAL_API document added - early draft only, of interest to those
writing or modifying HALs for new h/w
ARMop_API document added - early draft only, of interest only
to those modifying kernel to support new ARM cores
*** polite comments on HAL_API welcome ***

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.15. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_15'

First attempt at ARM9 support, and general clean-up of old ARM-specific code, now using vectored ARMops.

Not tested.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.14. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_14'

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, 4.79.2.5. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_5'

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.
