(nw) The Lua engine has been updated in a way that maintains source compatibility with existing Lua

able to expose the input sequence poller helper properly. I tested the changes with the cheat and
autofire plugins and I was able to assign sequences. However I found two issues: it's seems
impossible to assign a more complex sequence than a single key/button in the autofire plugin (i.e.
no AND or NOT conditions, I confirmed this is pre-existing, not a regression), and in both the cheat
and autofire plugins I found it a bit unwieldy trying to enter a complex sequence without live
feedback of the sequence as it's built (this was also applicable to MAME's own input mapping menu
until I added the live display yesterday).

for the galaga video driver.
Changes in this commit:
1. Regenerates starfield colors based on LFSR state for every frame
2. Pixel accurate to Namco original 05xx
3. Restores one line horizontal starfield shift for every 256
vertical pixel shifts
4. Properly handles LFSR reset (_STARCLR)

RS-232 DCE-DCE Bridge
(nw) This is a simple machine for wiring together two things that want
to plug into an RS-232 port. This means that for DCE-like things (e.g.
serial printers) there's no need to create an extra machine to allow
them to talk to the outside world with the null_modem device. (Also
added some asserts, removed a FIXME, and put the swtpc8212 terminal in
the default RS-232 devices.)
* Changed emu_fatalerror to use util::string_format semantics
* Fixed some incorrectly marked up stuff in build scripts
* Make internal layout compression type a scoped enum (only zlib is supported still, but at least the values aren't magic numbers now)
* Fixed memory leaks in Xbox USB
* There can only be one "perfect quantum" device - enforce that only the root machine can set it, as allowing subdevices to will cause weird issues with slot cards overiding it
* Allow multiple devices to set maximum quantum and use the most restrictive one (it's maximum quantum, it would be minimum interleave)
* Got rid of device_slot_card_interface as it wasn't providing value
* Added a helper template to reduce certain kinds of boilerplate in slots/buses
* Cleaned up some particularly bad slot code (plenty more of that to do), and made some slots more idiomatic
This patch gets it running, and splits it into two front ends, one
being a rs232 bus slot so that is can be used as a terminal option. It
adds the MCM66750 character generator, and implements the MC6845 row
update function. Most of the I/O has been worked out with help from
the CT-82 user manual. The various screen formats and the graphics
modes appear to be working and plausible. Printer support has been
added, and a beeper.
- Removed code no longer used
- Add noexcept where appropriate

fundamental change to show device delegates are configured.
Device delegates are now aware of the current device during
configuration and will resolve string tags relative to it. This means
that device delegates need a device to be supplied on construction so
they can find the machine configuration object. There's a
one-dimensional array helper to make it easier to construct arrays of
device delegates with the same owner. (I didn't make an n-dimensional
one because I didn't hit a use case, but it would be a simple addition.)
There's no more bind_relative_to member - just call resolve() like you
would for a devcb. There's also no need to cast nullptr when creating a
late bind device delegate. The flip side is that for an overloaded or
non-capturing lambda you'll need to cast to the desired type.
There is one less conditional branch in the hot path for calls for
delegates bound to a function pointer of member function pointer. This
comes at the cost of one additional unconditional branch in the hot
path for calls to delegates bound to functoids (lambdas, functions that
don't take an object reference, other callable objects). This applies
to all delegates, not just device delegates.
Address spaces will now print an error message if a late bind error is
encountered while installing a handler. This will give the range and
address range, hopefully making it easier to guess which memory map is
faulty.
For the simple case of allowing a device_delegate member to be
configured, use a member like this:
template <typename... T> void set_foo(T &&...args) { m_foo_cb.set(std::forward<T>(args)...); }
For a case where different delegates need to be used depending on the
function signature, see src/emu/screen.h (the screen update function
setters).
Device delegates now take a target specification and function pointer.
The target may be:
* Target omitted, implying the current device being configured. This
can only be used during configuration. It will work as long as the
current device is not removed/replaced.
* A tag string relative to the current device being configured. This
can only be used during configuration. It will not be callable until
.resolve() is called. It will work as long as the current device is
not removed/replaced.
* A device finder (required_device/optional_device). The delegate will
late bind to the current target of the device finder. It will not
be callable until .resolve() is called. It will work properly if the
target device is replaced, as long as the device finder's base object
isn't removed/replaced.
* A reference to an object. It will be callable immediately. It will
work as long as the target object is not removed/replaced.
The target types and restrictions are pretty similar to what you already
have on object finders and devcb, so it shouldn't cause any surprises.
Note that dereferencing a device finder will changes the effect. To
illustrate this:
...
required_device<some_device> m_dev;
...
m_dev(*this, "dev")
...
// will late bind to "dev" relative to *this
// will work if "dev" hasn't been created yet or is replaced later
// won't work if *this is removed/replaced
// won't be callable until resolve() is called
cb1.set(m_dev, FUNC(some_device::w));
...
// will bind to current target of m_dev
// will not work if m_dev is not resolved
// will not work if "dev" is replaced later
// will be callable immediately
cb2.set(*m_dev, FUNC(some_device::w));
...
The order of the target and name has been reversed for functoids
(lambdas and other callable objects). This allows the NAME macro to
be used on lambdas and functoids. For example:
foo.set_something(NAME([this] (u8 data) { m_something = data; }));
I realise the diagnostic messages get ugly if you use NAME on a large
lambda. You can still give a literal name, you just have to place it
after the lambda rather than before. This is uglier, but it's
intentional. I'm trying to drive developers away from a certain style.
While it's nice that you can put half the driver code in the memory map,
it detracts from readability. It's hard to visualise the memory range
mappings if the memory map functions are punctuated by large lambdas.
There's also slightly higher overhead for calling a delegate bound to a
functoid.
If the code is prettier for trivial lambdas but uglier for non-trivial
lambdas in address maps, it will hopefully steer people away from
putting non-trivial lambdas in memory maps.
There were some devices that were converted from using plain delegates
without adding bind_relative_to calls. I fixed some of them (e.g.
LaserDisc) but I probably missed some. These will likely crash on
unresolved delegate calls.
There are some devices that reset delegates at configuration complete or
start time, preventing them from being set up during configuration (e.g.
src/devices/video/ppu2c0x.cpp and src/devices/machine/68307.cpp). This
goes against the design principles of how device delegates should be
used, but I didn't change them because I don't trust myself to find all
the places they're used.
I've definitely broken some stuff with this (I know about asterix), so
report issues and bear with me until I get it all fixed.

buildoptions_cpp are only applied to c++ files and buildoptions_objcpp are only
applied to objective c++ files. As such, hardcoding -x offers no benefit while
preventing overrides (such as one needed by 3rdparty/bgfx/src/renderer_vk.cpp on
macOS) from working.
* Re-introduce -x c++ in places where C code is compiled as C++ to prevent clang from throwing a warning
* Build bgfx as Objective-C++ on macOS
It is needed due to included headers
* Enable Direct3D12 and Vulkan bgfx rendering backends

* Properly escape /c in cmd call
* Comment out dx12 bgfx renderer

* Only invert hlsl shader XYZ_TO_sRGB matrix for opengl
* Add spirv shaders
* OpenGL ES needs transposed matrix too
* Metal needs transposed matrix as well
* screen: validate crystal values used for set_raw
* driver: get rid of sound start/reset overrides in machine configuration

* devfind, screen: repair some doxy comments that had rotted with refactoring
* doxygen: disable warnings for undocumented things - it's most of our codebase
* snowbros.cpp: restore an output level setting lost in MCFG removal
There's an outstanding validation error from the HP98543 DIO video card
not using a valid crystal value. Someone needs to find a picture of the
card and confirm or deny the existence of the 39.504MHz crystal.
The various start/reset overrides are bugs waiting to happen. It's not
immediately obvious that the ones run earlier can end up being called
multiple times if subsequent ones throw missing dependencies exceptions.
They're a relic of when everything from the old C-style drivers was
thrown into classes all jumbled together.
* Re-write makedep.py for better performance and better parsing front-end
* Make srcclean deal with kinds of preprocessor abuse I never want to see in real life
(nw) The new parser front-end is better at recognising C++ syntax and
also substantially faster - bootstrapping a single-driver build should
be noticeably quicker. Having a single parser for C++, .lst and .flt
files also gets us a bit closer to making it simpler to create custom
subtargets.
* subhuntr.cpp: S2636 PVI was seemingly uncommented by mistake in 93308b483e - offsets and sound routing seem to be copy/pasted from somewhere
* phi: prettier config
* scramble.cpp, wallc.cpp: avoid some calls to subdevice<...>(...)
* makedep.py: open source files as UTF-8 (GitHub #5482)
* minimaws: be less trusting
(nw) This has been a long time coming but it's here at last. It should
be easier now that logerror, popmessage and osd_printf_* behave like
string_format and stream_format. Remember the differences from printf:
* Any object with a stream out operator works with %s
* %d, %i, %o, %x, %X, etc. work out the size by magic
* No sign extending promotion to int for short/char
* No widening/narrowing conversions for characters/strings
* Same rules on all platforms, insulated from C runtime library
* No format warnings from compiler
* Assert in debug builds if number of arguments doesn't match format
(nw) Also removed a pile of redundant c_str and string_format, and some
workarounds for not being able to portably format 64-bit integers or
long long.
Motorola MC6802 evaluation kit. This emulator implements the Keypad and the
LED display, and the MEK68R2 CRT and parallel keyboard interface with support
from the D3BUG2 ROM, and the RS232 terminal support using the MEK68IO and with
support for this also included in the D3BUG2 ROM. Much of the monitor commands
appear to operate properly.
* MEK6809D4: new machine
Motorola MC6809 evaluation board. This emulation implements the keypad and LED
7 segment display, the RS-232 terminal interface, and the MEK68R2 MC6845 CRT
and parallel keyboard interface. The RAM and ROM banking is not yet
implemented but most of the D4BUG monitor commands are supported.
* MEK6802D5: new machine
Motorola MC6802 trainer board. This emulation implements the keypad
and LED 7 segment display, and the RS-232 terminal interface even
though there is no monitor support for it. All the D5BUG monitor
commands appear to be working.
This will compile, link, and run a driver all the way to the first info screen, provided you use -video bgfx.
However, although there's a valid NSWindow created, it never actually appears on screen for unknown (but likely silly) reasons.
Inputs are not implemented and fullscreen exists but is untried.

It appears that it is sufficient to include `-s USE_SDL_TTF=2`, and
emcc links in the SDL2_tff library, and it does not like attempts to
link this twice.
The current Emscripten release is not happy with the use of
"-s ERROR_ON_MISSING_LIBRARIES=0" as a link option, it gives an error
stating that all libraries must now be present, so remove that use.
This leaves a missing 'util' library. This did not appear to be
needed on the few builds I have tried, and this patch avoids adding
this library for asmjs.
* Improved encapsulation between video and machine SoC periperals;
* Split up HWs in individual files where they don't belong to Crystal System HW, makes future development easier;
* Untangled reads/writes to draw/display bankswitches from screen_update, now they can be unthrottled safely;
* Added CRTC screen raw parameters;
* Add DMA hold feature and clear irq on mask writes, specific for P's Attack;
* Improved Cross Puzzle flash loading, currently failing at POST for a SPU error;
nexus3d.cpp: add some preliminary work, currently does some VRender3d pipeline fill with a debug trick [Angelo Salese]
(out of whatsnew)
Some stuff definitely needs fine graining, like removing the few lines that are still necessary to configure the VRender0 from driver files, which I'm gonna do in my next feature branch.
Split out the floppy disk controller from the swtpc09 machine, adding it to
the ss50 interface. The DC5 is compatible with both the SWTPC 6800 and 6809
systems, supporting the 4 and 16 byte I/O interfaces respectively, via a
jumper setting, so can be used on the MAME swtpc and swtpc09 machines. The
DC5, like the DC4, supports double sided and density disks, and claimed
backward compatibility with the DC1, DC2 and DC3.
Split out the PIA IDE hard disk interface from the swtpc09 machine. This
support appears to have been incomplete or to have bit rotten, and has been
updated and tested lightly with FLEX9.

This is based on an MCS-51 core, like the MK3 bootleg. They are
clearly based on the same code, so the MK3 bootleg was moved to
this driver.
* Enable precompiled header usage in the Visual Studio compiler
But only for libraries emu frontend precompile dasm optional
Also add emu.h include to hpcdasm.cpp
* Include emu.h in some disassembler sources to use precompiled headers
* Remove debug message
The UniFLEX disk format is not compatible with the Flex format. Significantly it
does not use a mix of single density for booting on some double density disks
which makes it simpler - hardware required a new boot ROM to run UniFLEX.
Further, the UniFLEX sector size is 512 bytes versus 256 for Flex, and the
UniFLEX 'SIR' info sector record is completely different to the info on Flex
disk, and the file system format is also not at all compatible.
Thus the UniFlex format can rely largely on the WD17xx format, with an
overload to handle the sector numbering on the second side continuing from the
first side (one feature in common with the Flex format). This gives a quick
'save' capability and shares code.
Support for 8" disks is included as this was the initial distribution format
and the only one found so far.
* gdbstub: added new GDB stub debugger
This debugger can be used to connect to an external debugger that
communicates using the GDB Remote Serial Protocol, such as GDB itself
or many other GDB frontends.
Currently i386 (ct486), arm7 (gba), and ppc (pmac6100) are supported.
* gdbstub: enable GDB stub debugger in mac and windows builds

* There is no longer a concept of "layers" - there are only screens and elements.
* Elements are now instantiated with <element ref="...">
* Screens and elements can have explicit blending mode specified with blend="..."
* Default blending mode for screens is "add" and default for other elements is "alpha"
* Other supported modes are "none" and "multiply"
* This removes the options to enable/disable layers individually - use views instead
* Legacy layouts can still be loaded, and support won't be removed for at least a year
The current artwork model is over-stretched. It's based on a Space
Invaders cabinet model, and isn't applicable to a lot of the systems
MAME emulates now. The fact that MAME has to switch to an "alternate"
mode to deal with games like Golly! Ghost! without requiring pre-matted
bitmaps shows that the Space Invaders model wasn't even adequate for
general arcade use. It shows in that for a lot of the systems that
heavily depend on artwork, people just seem to randomly choose layers
for elements until they get something that works. Also, the fact that
MAME will switch to an alternate (Golly! Ghost!) mode depending on the
combination of elements is a trap for people learning to make artwork.
There are cases that the current approach of implying the blending mode
from the layer doesn't work with. Examples include LEDs behind
diffusers (requires additive blending for layout elements), and mutliple
stacked LCD panels (requires RGB multiplication for screens).
For configurability, it's now a lot easier to make multiple views using
groups. For example, if you want to make it possible to hide the
control panel section of your layout, you can put the control panel
elements in a group and create views with and without it.
I will gradually migrate the internal artwork to use the new approach.
I have an XSLT stylesheet that helps with this, but I'm not comfortable
adding it because it isn't a complete solution and it still requires
manul steps.
I wanted to get the re-worked pointer handling done sooner so I could
push them both at the same time, but unfortunately various things have
prevented me from progressing as quickly as I wanted to. Sorry guys,
that stuff's going to have to wait.

Gals Panic (Modular System bootleg) [Juan Romero, Recreativas.org, ClawGrip, David Haywood]
these things are *ugly* from a hardware perspective (massive 6 board stack just for Gals Panic with many, many code hacks to work around hardware changes) so I felt it best to create a new driver with the background bits copy+pasted; the sprites + sound system specific to these bootlegs will need adding.
* bleah (nw)
- dxsdk was missing from includes

* Start fixing OS9 disk handling
* Got it working, now need to refine and test
* Almost complete. Doing more testing...
* Tested aginst a varient of sotware. Solved bug. Cleaned up tabs.
* Turned on sector interleaving in OS9_DSK and retested.
On Linux, enable Xinput support by default. The Xinput lightgun driver is the
only reliable+accurate method to use lightguns on Linux, we should enable this
by default to reduce the friction for Linux Lightgun users. This should have no
effect on users of Windows/Mac etc.
Eventually, the svg should be used instead of the pre-rendered ppm.
I'm a little afraid of the performance impact of the 3840 outputs
though, so one thing at a time...
- it's a newer SoC (with a lot more capabilities, eg rotate, zoom, twice the sound channels)
- it uses an updated unSP core (with some extra opcodes)
also made the modifications needed to allow for extension of the unSP + disassembler once we've worked out what the extra opcodes are.
Split video functions into video/raiden2.cpp, Cleanup ACCESSING_BITs, Fix naming, Reduce runtime tag lookups, Reduce unused, Add save state for sprite encryption values
Fix xsedae config because This game is running into modified Zero Team Hardware, And second OKI chip/surface are not exists.

Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.
- added MOSFET model. Currently capacitances are not modelled.
This is a 3-pin model (Bulk connected to Source) with provisions to
extend it to 4-pin at a later stage.
- Add a capacitor generic model which is charge conserving.
Switch netlist to use this model instead of constant capacity model.
- Start putting constants into a central place.
Please expect minor timing differences due to a different numerical
path.
The cmos inverter example illustrates the analog implementation of a
cmos inverter gate. These were used a lot back in the 70s/80s to
generate sinus waves. The model should also be able to better emulate
4066 analog switches.
The addition of a relatively simple capacitor model is planned at a
later stage.
Expect everything from the MOSFET model at the current stage. Wrong
results as well as convergence issues and crashes.
- Fix typo'd constant in m68kmmu that prevented trapping user accesses to kernel space
- Remove need for intrusive m68k modifications
- Fix crash in 3c505 networking
- Fix Domain/OS booting in Normal mode

A single 64K 2-way set associative cache
Used for both instructions and data
Enabled only for addresses in the first megabyte
Works always in writeback mode
.
It is needed by the nforce motherboard bios that uses it to simulate a
block of ram at address d0000 before ddr ram is configured

* reorganize code here a bit too (nw)
- 80 column card with SDX in CP/M mode.
- ROM/RAM banking fixed for CP/M, and MTX500 now correctly detected.
- Support for Type 03 and Type 07 .mfloppy images.
- Added alternate MTX2 romset (German).
- Keyboard ROM now selected in Configuration.
- Quickload .RUN files.

Advanced Pico BEENA: Fresh Pretty Cure [Team Europe, R. Belmont]
This is a little weird because it's a new system and we have a cartridge dump but not the BIOS.
* Disassembly names Monitor ROM entry points, I/O locations, and common zero-page locations
* Disassembly shows ProDOS calls with the call name and lets you step completely over them
I don't really understand why this works, but it enables building with VS 2017 15.7.6 as before. Apologies if it breaks LLVM on VS - I don't have that configuration to test.
* Document cross-compilation options
* Use lowercase for some libraries that are lowercase in system32 on Windows anyway
* Make USE_BUNDLED_LIB_SDL2=0 not use the bundled SDL

c2color note: Again the internal ROM isn't dumped, but we need the placeholder driver for the software list hookup, 2 carts are dumped. (nw)
-vsmile: Added softlist loading for some of the trickier vsmile cases based on new dumps from Sean Riddle. Note, the Vsmile Motion game is 16MB so clearly needs some kind of banking. (nw)
WIP checkpoint: while I believe it's largely accurate (and very slow), neither jazz nor sgi systems can fully boot yet using this device, so it remains experimental.
This implementation should go away when it has helped identify the improvements required for mips3.
