hdr/Options: Switch removed
s/Modhand: Switch removed, now considered equivalent to DebugROMInit. DebugROMInit changed so that the callback ordering is as expected, batched up until "callbacks" is hit after Service_PostInit.
PMF/osbyte: Redundant RISC OS 2.01 code deleted

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.184. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_184'

SystemName, ROMSizeOffset, HAL32, HAL26 only used here, moved here.
Remove uses of "M_" booleans, apparently that's bad form.
Fix SWIDespatch_Size for the non thumb capable case (was ASSERTing).
Swapped UserMemStart for AppSpaceStart.
Removed last use of OldComboSupport (pre Medusa!).
Removed switch 'CDVPoduleIRQs', a correction to the machine definitions mean this can now simply be switched on NumberOfPodules (previously, IOMD couldn't chain podule interrupts).
Take out disabled sub interrupt support - it's in CVS if you want to try to get it working.
Moved ConfiguredLang to 11 for everyone, it only matters if !Boot fails, and no harm in making it common for 5.xx onwards.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.183. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_183'

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'

OS_CallAfter and OS_CallEvery were treating the delay in R0 as a signed number, limiting its possible range. The PRM didn't require this (a -ve delay doesn't make sense, so implicitly times are unsigned), reworked to allow times up to 0xFFFFFBFF.
Aside:
  OSLib exports these functions as 'int', but it doesn't seem to make a distinction for unsigned versus signed anyway (other unsigned arguments are plain int too)
  The 'callx' library was already prototyped with unsigned times back in 1997

Added comment to hdr/Options about FirstUnpluggableModule - since the keyboard and mouse drivers got moved out of the kernel in 3.50, the original intent (to not allow you to unplug vital modules) has long since been lost, and really the only use of this value is to save 8 bits of CMOS frugal bits.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.181. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_181'

Permits applications to query what value would be used in the event of a CMOS reset for a given configure value. Notably, the configure plugins will use this in favour of 'ResetCMOS'.
hdr/Options: retire the 'Select16BitSound' switch, add comment for ChecksumCMOS switch
hdr/KernelWS: DuffEntry and Nowhere moved here
Kernel.s: Unused OSMD removed, retire single use of SPIRQ in favour of r13_irq
Middle.s: Retire SPIRQ
NewReset.s: Trim out 300+ lines of CMOS reset defaults, call OS_NVMemory 6 instead
PMF/i2cutils.s: CMOS reset default code and table moved here with refactoring
Note, the previous code preserved YearCMOS during the zeroing, only to unconditionally write it later - so have removed it from the zeroing step.
Note, the locations 80-111 are now considered as system CMOS in the allocations hence are now wiped too (previously they got skipped as user CMOS during R-power-on).

Tested on OMAP3 ROM with delete-power-on and R-power-on variants, and a simple BASIC program to read locations 0-255 via OS_NVMemory.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.180. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_180'

Detail:
  s/Middle - Added OS_ReadSysInfo 13 to allow the kernel to validate a key handler before the owner attempts to install it
  Resources/UK/Messages - Text for new "Bad key handler" error
  s/GetAll, s/PMF/Def - Get rid of now obsolete s/PMF/Def file. It only contained definitions for pre-HAL hardware, and for the key handler layout (now in Hdr:Keyboard)
  hdr/KeyWS - Increased size of KeysDown array so it can hold 768 keys instead of 160. Trim a couple of obsolete variables, and increase CurrKey/OldKey from 1 byte to 4 bytes.
  s/PMF/key, s/PMF/osbyte - Main bulk of the changes for the new key handling. All the important interfaces are now able to deal with extended (i.e. > 8 bit) internal key numbers, and the kernel is able to cope with key handlers which use 16 bit internal/low level key numbers instead of 8 bit.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.175. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_175'

Variously the call to TranslateError was either followed (outside the switch) by an unnecessary SETV, or missing SETV for the non international case.
Added DMA controller HAL device for IOMD.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.174. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_174'

Default CMOS tweaks now apply for the RPi hardware. Was missed in
the previous commit.

You can now build the Kernel without the ROM debug output stuff
that's enabled for odd-numbered builds, by passing FREEZE_DEV_REL=TRUE
into the makefile. For example, in the Components file, you'd add:

  -options FREEZE_DEV_REL=TRUE

onto the Kernel line.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.171. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_171'

Detail:
  s/HAL, s/NewReset - Moved IIC initialisation to just after timer initialisation, and crucially, before keyboard scan initialisation. This makes things a lot easier for the HAL if it wants to use IIC during the keyboard scan (previously IIC would be enabled inbetween HAL_KbdScanSetup and the first call to HAL_KbdScan)

Fix addresses sent to GraphicsV_SetDMAAddress when external framestore in use. Add ID for BCM2835 VDU HAL device.

Detail:
  hdr/KernelWS, s/vdu/vdudriver, s/vdu/vduwrch - Fixed wrong addresses being sent to GraphicsV_SetDMAAddress when an external framestore is in use. Previously VideoPhysAddr was being treated as if it was the base of screen memory, but that's only the case if an internal framestore is in use. Since VideoPhysAddr is part of PhysRamTable it's not possible to change it to point to an external framestore, so a new workspace variable, TrueVideoPhysAddr, is used instead.

NewReset.s:
The one remaining use of SetBorder was to denote the user asked for and got a CMOS reset, which in the HAL case emitted a warning because setting the border is potentially complicated/slow.
To solve this, the reset is noted and replaces the normal RISC OS banner with a warning message. The behaviour and text for this comes from the BBC Master, though the escape key is used in place of break since a reset isn't actually needed.
Moved the unused cputable inside its corresponding switch.
Two occurrences of WriteS_Translated would have executed the message in the V=1 case.
KernelWS/Resources:
Flag added to workspace, translation added to messages files.
Heapman.s:
Commented out use of SetBorder removed.

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.

Version 5.35, 4.79.2.131. Tagged as 'Kernel-5_35-4_79_2_131'

Improve heap manager. Add heap testbed. Add dummy implementation of some OS_ScreenMode reason codes.

Detail:
  s/HeapMan, hdr/KernelWS - Heap manager improvements:
    - Errors generated by interrupted heap operations that are forced to complete by a OS_Heap call from the background are now cached in kernel workspace until the foreground task is resumed. This prevents them from being potentially overwritten by MessageTrans running out of background error buffers.
    - Added new OS_Heap reason code, #7 - Get area aligned. This allows areas of memory to be allocated at specific (power-of-2) alignments, and optionally without crossing a given (power-of-2) boundary. Alignment & boundary calculations are performed using logical addresses.
    - Removed the limitation that all free and allocated blocks must be a multiple of 8 bytes in length. This change was required in order to allow OS_Heap 7 to function correctly. Now the only requirements are that blocks must be multiples of 4 bytes in length, at 4 byte alignment, with a minimum length of 8 bytes. 4 extra padding bytes may still be added to the end of allocations in order to avoid creating 4-byte free blocks.
  s/HeapMan, TestSrc/HeapTest/Makefile, TestSrc/HeapTest/c/testbed, TestSrc/HeapTest/s/asm - Added heap testbed program. Can either use the OS_Heap SWI or directly include a copy of the Kernel's heap manager sources.
  s/vdudecl, s/vduswis - Added dummy implementations of OS_ScreenMode 4, 5 and 6. This prevents the Wimp generating lots of "Unknown OS_ScreenMode reason code" errors when redrawing the screen.
  s/Arthur3, s/Oscli - Moved dotstring closer to where it's used to avoid "ADRL out of range" errors in Tungsten build
Admin:
  Tested in OMAP3 ROM & Tungsten ROM softload.
  Heap testbed successfully performed over 400 million heap ops, so there shouldn't be any serious bugs in the new code (touch wood)
