Version 5.35, 4.79.2.246. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_246'

Add an extra entry for a revised power control/overcurrent monitoring API, more closely following the model that HAL_TimerIRQStatus and HAL_TimerIRQClear uses.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.243. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_243'

Add more HAL USB definitions to hdr/HALEntries. Add debug option for calling HangWatch_Dump on serious errors.

Detail:
  hdr/HALEntries - Added definition of the struct returned by HAL_USBControllerInfo
  hdr/Options, s/Middle - Added the option to call HangWatch_Dump on serious errors
Admin:
  Tested on BB-xM


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.235. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_235'

Detail:
  hdr/HALEntries - Added definitions for the different USB controller types reported by HAL_USBControllerInfo
Admin:
  Tested on Raspberry Pi


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.227. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_227'

  HAL graphics driver calls.  Added further debug capability
Detail:
  Added additional HAL call. minor code correction in hal graphicsv dispatcher
  Added DebugReg macro to aid debugging
Admin:
  (highlight level of testing that has taken place)
  (bugfix number if appropriate)


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.215. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_215'

Add new HAL call, HAL_IRQMax, to allow the kernel to determine the number of IRQ lines/devices at runtime

Detail:
  hdr/HALEntries - Reuse the old HAL_MonitorLeadID call number for HAL_IRQMax
  hdr/KernelWS - Rearrange CursorChunkAddress workspace a bit. Removed unused OldOscliBuffs and a couple of pre-HAL allocations, and made DefIRQ1Vspace the same size for all build configs. Add an IRQMax var to zero page workspace to cache the value returned by HAL_IRQMax.
  s/HAL - Initialise IRQMax shortly after HAL initialisation. Revise ClearPhysRAM comment to reflect which vars are preserved in the current version of the code.
  s/NewIRQs - Strip out a fair bit of pre-HAL code to make the file more readable. Update OS_ClaimDeviceVector/OS_ReleaseDeviceVector to check against IRQMax instead of the MaxInterrupts compile-time limit.
Admin:
  Tested on BB-xM, Iyonix, RiscPC, Pi
  Although the OS will now nominally adapt at runtime to how many IRQ devices there are, it's still using MaxInterrupts as an upper limit as the device claimant table has a fixed memory allocation.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.182. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_182'

Detail:
  hdr/HALEntries - Add new HAL_Video_StartupMode HAL entry to allow the HAL to specify a startup mode
  s/HAL, s/Kernel - Tweaked debug routines
  s/vdu/vdudriver - Make use of HAL_Video_StartupMode in InitialiseMode to decide what initial mode should be. Clean up some hacks & debug. Improve handling of external framestores; if bit 5 of GraphicsV_DisplayFeatures r0 is set, the kernel will now allow the display driver to grow/shrink/move its framestore in response to mode changes.
  s/vdu/vdugrafv - Adjust default GV_FramestoreAddress implementation to only claim vector if HAL returns a framestore
  s/vdu/vduswis - Re-enable FindOKMode
Admin:
  Tested on Raspberry Pi with high processor vectors


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.147.2.18. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_147_2_18'

Detail:
  Revisions Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_153 and Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_161 merged with one
  trivial conflict.
Admin:
  Confirmed that this builds, but not tested on hardware.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.147.2.15. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_147_2_15'

Previously HAL_PhysInfo took one of two routes to get the arrangment table of arrangement table size.
Reorganised to accept a subreason to allow other physical info to be requested.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.161. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_161'

Detail:
  This functions like OS_Hardware 4, but enumerates devices in the
  chronological order of registration.
Admin:
  Builds, but untested.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.160. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_160'

No accepts  r0 = b31-24 set 0
                 b23-16 fully qualified IIC address
                 b15-0  starting offset
            r1 = buffer pointer
            r2 = number of bytes to tranfer
            r4 = b31-24 display number
                 b23-16 head
                 b15-0  reason code (=14)
Now returns r0 = result codes as per HAL_IICTransfer()
            r1 = buffer pointer incremented by number of bytes transferred
            r2 = number of bytes *not* transferred
            r4 = 0
Removed '_' after Video in entry numbers to be consistent with other HAL entry naming, and HAL_VideoFlybackDevice.
Added IICStatus return numbers to Hdr:HALEntries.
Stop calling HAL_MonitorLeadID as only IOMD implemented it - just guess VGA until the graphics driver says otherwise.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.159. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_159'

With no VRAM, in Kernerl.s.HAL line 370, the less than 16M case sets aside half the RAM as available for video (more than, it uses no more than 32M) but the exactly equals 16M case set aside none.
Add some exports to hdr.HALEntries to define the subreasons to OS_Hardware.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.154. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_154'

  s/GetAll - Add GET of Hdr:SerialOp
  s/PMF/osbyte - Use OS_SerialOp 10 when constructing filename to open for OS_Byte 2
Admin:
  Tested in OMAP3, Tungsten ROMs


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.152. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_152'

Detail:
  An undocumented entry condition of TickOne is that r0 contains the device
  number corresponding to Timer0. This must be passed to HAL_IRQClear on
  some platforms.
Admin:
  Tested only on a Raspberry Pi. Also added enumeration of entry numbers in
  comments in Hdr:HALEntries - a handy reference when debugging from the
  command line!

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.147.2.8. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_147_2_8'

  1: Added HAL_FramebufferAddress entry.
  2: Minor mod the NoIrqVecSwiDispatch mods recently submitted. Improved coverage
  3: Added compile time switch InverseTextTransparency to toggle sense of text
  (pre-wimp) for use until correct transparency behaviour is introduced in the RPi
  start.elf.
  4: Ensured that if a non aligned frame buffer is reported, ALL of the space
  is actually mapped in.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.147.2.5. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_147_2_5'

Detail:
  hdr/OSEntries, s/HAL, s/Kernel - Add compressed ROM support.
  With the current scheme, a compressed ROM will have everything except the HAL and kernel compressed.
  During the keyboard scan period the kernel will allocate some temporary decompression workspace and call the decompression stub that was appended to the ROM.
  The decompression stub is expected to perform in-place decompression of the ROM. Once decompression is complete the workspace will be freed and the page tables updated to make the ROM image readonly.
  It's the HAL's responsibility to make sure any compressed ROM is located in an area of physically contiguous RAM large enough to hold the uncompressed image.
  More info here: http://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/show/Compressed%20ROMs
  Makefile, h/OSEntries - Add C export of hdr/OSEntries
  hdr/HALDevice - Add device ID for Tungsten video device. Convert tabs to spaces for consistency.
  hdr/HALEntries, s/NewReset - Moved KbdFlag_* definitions to hdr/HALEntries so HALs can use them in their keyboard scan code
  s/ArthurSWIs, S/HAL, s/HeapSort, s/Kernel, s/MemInfo, s/Middle, s/NewIRQs, s/TickEvents, s/vdu/vdugrafb - Make use of BLX, BFI and long multiplies if the CPU supports them. Don't support SWI calls from thumb mode if the CPU doesn't support thumb.
  s/HAL - Made the LDMIA in Init_MapInRAM more sensible (register order was backwards). The old code did work, but wasn't doing what the comments described. Removed unused/unfinished HAL_Write0 function. Improve RISCOS_LogToPhys to check L1PT for any section mappings if the logical_to_physical call fails
  s/ModHand - Save one instruction by using ADR instead of MOV+ADD to compute lr
  s/NewReset, s/PMF/key - Pass L1PT to HAL_Reset to allow machines without hardware reset (e.g. IOMD) to perform resets by manually disabling the MMU and restarting the ROM
  s/vdu/vdudriver, s/vdu/vdugrafv - Use GVEntry macro borrowed from NVidia module for setting up the GraphicsV jump table. Make GraphicsV_ReadPaletteEntry call HAL_Video_ReadPaletteEntry if left unclaimed. Fixup GV_Render to only call HAL_Video_Render if the HAL call is implemented.
Admin:
  Tested with OMAP3, IOMD & Tungsten ROMs/softloads.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.138. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_138'

Detail:
  hdr/HALDevice - Device types & IDs for CPU clock generator and GPIO interface
  hdr/HALEntries - HAL_ExtMachineID entry (but not used by this kernel yet)
Admin:
  Tungsten ROM built OK, but untested at runtime.


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.116. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_116'

Detail:
  OS_ReadSysInfo 10 is left unimplemented since it's a bit fiddly for us.
  OS_ReadSysInfo 11 is compatible with ROL's implementation, exposing HAL_DebugTX and HAL_DebugRX if the HAL provides them.
  See here for 10,11 docs: http://select.riscos.com/prm/core/osreadsysinfo.html
  OS_ReadSysInfo 12 is a new call to return the 'extended machine ID', to allow the HAL to specify the format & validity of the ID.
  If the HAL responds to the new HAL_ExtMachineID call then it's assumed that no old-style machine ID is present. The Kernel will generate an old-style ID using the contents of the extended ID, and use that with OS_ReadSysInfo 2/5.
  New software should use OS_ReadSysInfo 12 in preference to 2/5.
  s/Middle - Updated OS_ReadSysInfo SWI
  s/PMF/osinit - New old-style machine ID initialisation code
  hdr/HALEntries - Added new HAL_ExtMachineID entry
Admin:
  Tested on rev A2 BB-xM


Version 5.35, 4.79.2.98.2.34. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_98_2_34'

Detail:

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.79. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_79'

* Added use of CDVPoduleIRQs (from Hdr:Machine)
* Fixed checksum corruption in OS_NVMemory block writes ending just below
  the checksum byte.
* Fixed R4 corruption by OS_Byte 162 with certain HALs.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.71. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_71'

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'

  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

  * Disabled LED flashing in page mode (liable to crash)
  * Masked sprite plot and VDU 5 text avoids reading the screen if possible
  * Framestore made USR mode accessible
  * Fix for VDU 5,127 bug - now relies on font definitions being in extreme
    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
  * RISCOS_MapInIO() takes cacheable flag in bit 3, access permissions in
    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
  * Default configured language changed from 10 to 11 (now Desktop again)

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.51. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_51'

    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
