20 Added a quick README to the debugger directory. dgisselq 3169d 13h /
19 Here's the outlines of a debugger. dgisselq 3169d 13h /
18 A couple of changes: Registers can now be changed via the debug interface.
Also, in anticipation of being able to interrupt the break the processor,
the CPU now exports an interrupt line to the external environment to tell
when it has been halted. Thus, if it gets halted by a break instruction,
the ZipSystem will interrupt whatever's in its environment so that the
debugger can come and examine its state.

Oh, and one other: because you can't examine the state of the CPU without
halting it, I modified the debug control register to export the four
useful flags: break-enable, interrupts enabled, and sleep (step comes for
free in this implementation).		 dgisselq 3169d 13h /
17 The ZOPCODES function zipi_to_string (ZIP CPU instruction to string, part of
the machine code dump) was adjusted to have closer to a fixed width output.
It no longer uses tab characters, which can have an unreliable effect.		 dgisselq 3169d 14h /
16 The assembler now supports:
1. Multiple data elements on a line. These are lines like:
WORD 5,8,4,1
which place the words 5, 8, 4, and 1 directly into the object code to be
referenced as data. Prior to this release, these lines would assemble
properly but only place '5' as a data element into the object code.

2. The '-E' preprocessor only directive is now supported to produce output
from the preprocessor and see what is (or is not) happening there.

3. The preprocessor now validly places "#line" comments into the file, which
the assembler picks up and uses in it's error codes. These help identify
where errors took place.

4. Zasm now looks for the preprocessor (zpp) in the same directory zasm was
run from, using the same directory prefix as zasm, whenever zasm is given such
a directory prefix.

And ... perhaps other things I've forgotten about.		 dgisselq 3170d 20h /
15 Updated the core CPUOPS module to make certain that the carry was properly
set on right shifts. (Carry is then the last bit shifted out to the right,
and has no relation to the high order bits of the word.) Also fixed a bug
in the busdelay.v file that prevented our Quad SPI flash controller from
working. (This bug fix has not yet been tested ...) Our test.S program, the
closest thing we have to a regression test and found in the sw/zasm directory,
still successfully passes in Verilator.		 dgisselq 3173d 03h /
14 Removing zasm.cpp--the old assembler that never worked well. dgisselq 3173d 03h /
13 Finally! The beginnings of the new assembler. It's not really polished yet,
and it is quite clunky, but it works!! (Lots of bugs and features left to
fix/implement: #include, #define macro(), #line tracking through the
preprocessor, a means of finding include files (and the preprocessor!) and
more. But, as a beginning, the basics are functinoal.		 dgisselq 3173d 03h /
12 Bunch of changes while trying to get a hello world program:
1. Right shifts by 32 or more now result in zero, or all of the top bit in the
case of ASRs.
2. zdump now properly includes addresses with dumped lines.
3. zparser now properly handles immediate values via the .DAT instruction.		 dgisselq 3187d 18h /
11 This version works on an FPGA!!!

(Or at least the wdt.S program passes ...)		 dgisselq 3188d 03h /
