Changelog:
- gba/cpu: massive code cleanup effort
- gba/cpu: DMA can run in between active instructions¹
- gba/cpu: added two-cycle startup delay between DMA activation and
DMA transfers²
- processor/spc700: BBC, BBC, CBNE cycle 4 is an idle cycle
- processor/spc700: ADDW, SUBW, MOVW (read) cycle 4 is an idle cycle
¹: unfortunately, this causes yet another performance penalty for the
poor GBA core =( Also, I think I may have missed disabling DMAs while
the CPU is stopped. I'll fix that in the next WIP.
²: I put the waiting counter decrement at the wrong place, so this
doesn't actually work. Needs to be more like
this:
auto CPU::step(uint clocks) -> void {
for(auto _ : range(clocks)) {
for(auto& timer : this->timer) timer.run();
for(auto& dma : this->dma) if(dma.active && dma.waiting) dma.waiting--;
context.clock++;
}
...
auto CPU::DMA::run() -> bool {
if(cpu.stopped() || !active || waiting) return false;
transfer();
if(irq) cpu.irq.flag |= CPU::Interrupt::DMA0 << id;
if(drq && id == 3) cpu.irq.flag |= CPU::Interrupt::Cartridge;
return true;
}
Of course, the real fix will be restructuring how DMA works, so that
it's always running in parallel with the CPU instead of this weird
design where it tries to run all channels in some kind of loop until no
channels are active anymore whenever one channel is activated.
Not really sure how to design that yet, however.

Changelog:
- GB core code cleanup completed
- GBA core code cleanup completed
- some more cleanup on missed processor/arm functions/variables
- fixed FC loading icarus bug
- "Load ROM File" icarus functionality restored
- minor code unification efforts all around (not perfect yet)
- MMIO->IO
- mmio.cpp->io.cpp
- read,write->readIO,writeIO
It's been a very long work in progress ... starting all the way back with
v094r09, but the major part of the higan code cleanup is now completed! Of
course, it's very important to note that this is only for the basic style:
- under_score functions and variables are now camelCase
- return-type function-name() are now auto function-name() -> return-type
- Natural<T>/Integer<T> replace (u)intT_n types where possible
- signed/unsigned are now int/uint
- most of the x==true,x==false tests changed to x,!x
A lot of spot improvements to consistency, simplicity and quality have
gone in along the way, of course. But we'll probably never fully finishing
beautifying every last line of code in the entire codebase. Still,
this is a really great start. Going forward, WIP diffs should start
being smaller and of higher quality once again.
I know the joke is, "until my coding style changes again", but ... this
was way too stressful, way too time consuming, and way too risky. I'm
too old and tired now for extreme upheavel like this again. The only
major change I'm slowly mulling over would be renaming the using
Natural<T>/Integer<T> = (u)intT; shorthand to something that isn't as
easily confused with the (u)int_t types ... but we'll see. I'll definitely
continue to change small things all the time, but for the larger picture,
I need to just accept the style I have and live with it.

Changelog:
- emulation cores now refresh video from host thread instead of
cothreads (fix AMD crash)
- SFC: fixed another bug with leap year months in SharpRTC emulation
- SFC: cleaned up camelCase on function names for
armdsp,epsonrtc,hitachidsp,mcc,nss,sharprtc classes
- GB: added MBC1M emulation (requires manually setting mapper=MBC1M in
manifest.bml for now, sorry)
- audio: implemented Emulator::Audio mixer and effects processor
- audio: implemented Emulator::Stream interface
- it is now possible to have more than two audio streams: eg SNES
+ SGB + MSU1 + Voicer-Kun (eventually)
- audio: added reverb delay + reverb level settings; exposed balance
configuration in UI
- video: reworked palette generation to re-enable saturation, gamma,
luminance adjustments
- higan/emulator.cpp is gone since there was nothing left in it
I know you guys are going to say the color adjust/balance/reverb stuff
is pointless. And indeed it mostly is. But I like the idea of allowing
some fun special effects and configurability that isn't system-wide.
Note: there seems to be some kind of added audio lag in the SGB
emulation now, and I don't really understand why. The code should be
effectively identical to what I had before. The only main thing is that
I'm sampling things to 48000hz instead of 32040hz before mixing. There's
no point where I'm intentionally introducing added latency though. I'm
kind of stumped, so if anyone wouldn't mind taking a look at it, it'd be
much appreciated :/
I don't have an MSU1 test ROM, but the latency issue may affect MSU1 as
well, and that would be very bad.

Changelog:
- restructured the project and removed a whole bunch of old/dead
directives from higan/GNUmakefile
- huge amounts of work on hiro/cocoa (compiles but ~70% of the
functionality is commented out)
- fixed a masking error in my ARM CPU disassembler [Lioncash]
- SFC: decided to change board cic=(411,413) back to board
region=(ntsc,pal) ... the former was too obtuse
If you rename Boolean (it's a problem with an include from ruby, not
from hiro) and disable all the ruby drivers, you can compile an
OS X binary, but obviously it's not going to do anything.
It's a boring WIP, I just wanted to push out the project structure
change now at the start of this WIP cycle.
