22: Hatari and EmuTOS
23: =================
24:
1.1.1.7 root 25: To run the emulator, a TOS ROM image is needed. EmuTOS, a free
1.1.1.2 root 26: implementation of TOS, is shipped with the official releases of
27: Hatari.
28:
29: This tos.img ROM image is identical to the official binary package of
30: EmuTOS, which is available at the SourceForge website of EmuTOS. For
31: downloading other versions or the source code of EmuTOS, please visit
32: the EmuTOS website.
33:
1.1.1.8 ! root 34: The tos.img file included with the latest Hatari releases is
! 35: the etos512k.img[1] from a preceeding EmuTOS release:
! 36: - Hatari v1.6.2:
! 37: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/0.8.7/
1.1.1.7 root 38: - Hatari v1.6.0:
39: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/0.8.6/
40: - Hatari v1.4.0, v1.5.0:
41: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/0.8.5/
42: - Hatari v1.1.0, v1.2.0, v1.3.0, v1.3.1:
43: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/0.8.4/
44: - Hatari v1.0.0, v1.0.1:

46: - Hatari v0.95:
47: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos/files/emutos/0.8.2/
48:
49: Earlier Hatari binary releases have included one of the smaller
50: EmuTOS image files.
51:
1.1.1.8 ! root 52: [1] the "all languages" version intended mainly for TT & Falcon.
! 53: While the 192k and 256k version on some cases work better
! 54: for ST and STE programs, only the 512k image contains
! 55: support for all the hardware and languages.
! 56:
! 57: Note for EmuTOS before 0.8.6:
1.1.1.7 root 58: In order to work with Hatari, EmuTOS 0.8.5 and earlier require
59: the FastBoot option to be enabled. This is used to skip some memory
1.1.1.8 ! root 60: tests (that Hatari doesn't support yet) when EmuTOS tries to
! 61: determine the available RAM size.
! 62:
1.1.1.2 root 63:
64: What is EmuTOS
65: ==============
66:
67: EmuTOS is a single-user single-tasking operating system for the 32-bit
68: Atari computers and emulators. It can be used as a replacement for
1.1.1.5 root 69: the TOS images typically needed today for using the emulators and it is
70: also running on some real hardware, like the Atari Mega STE and Atari
71: ColdFire. All the source code is open and free, licensed under the
72: GNU General Public License (GPL). A copy of the GNU GPL can be found
73: in the gpl.txt file.
1.1 root 74:
75: EmuTOS has its home at SourceForge:
1.1.1.2 root 76: http://sourceforge.net/projects/emutos
77:
78:
79: EmuTOS usage
80: ============
81:
1.1.1.5 root 82: There are various reasons for using EmuTOS instead of the original
83: TOS ROM images:
1.1.1.2 root 84:
85: * Users who don't have Atari HW or other legal means to obtain the
86: original Atari TOS ROMs (for all of the Hatari supported Atari
87: versions: ST/STE/TT/Falcon), but would like to try out Hatari and
1.1.1.5 root 88: see what kind of software the Atari machines had. EmuTOS gives
89: them a legal way to test Hatari with free demos, games etc.
1.1.1.2 root 90:
91: * Users who want to continue using Atari compatible operating systems
1.1.1.7 root 92: and need an open source replacement of TOS for modifications. Beside
1.1.1.2 root 93: EmuTOS they typically alse use FreeMiNT, XaAES and fVDI as operating
94: system replacements/improvements.
95:
1.1.1.5 root 96: * This includes users of new "Atari" machines like Atari ColdFire project,
97: which isn't 100% compatible at HW level to the original Atari machines:
98: http://acp.atari.org/
99:
100: * EmuTOS also allows using ACSI disk images with Hatari TT/Falcon
1.1.1.4 root 101: emulation, whereas TOS 3 & 4 support only IDE and SCSI disks.
102: Hard disk images are needed mainly for running MiNT.
1.1.1.2 root 103:
104:
105: EmuTOS compatibility
106: ====================
107:
1.1.1.7 root 108: These comments apply to EmuTOS v0.8.x.
1.1.1.5 root 109:
1.1.1.2 root 110: Many commercial games and applications work fine with EmuTOS. This is
111: because games (like Bombjack, Nebulus, Oids, Super Hang-On, Turrican,
112: Xenon...) use directly the hardware which Hatari emulates just fine
113: and applications use the correct higher level APIs (AES/VDI) for which
114: EmuTOS has implementations.
115:
1.1.1.5 root 116: EmuTOS AES support is somewhat buggy (mouse clicks and dragging
117: doesn't always work properly) and VDI support is slowish. Anybody
118: wanting proper AES/VDI support should install replacement for these,
119: either the free XaAES + fVDI, or the earlier commercial solutions like
120: NVDI.
1.1.1.2 root 121:
1.1.1.8 ! root 122: Free games have the issue that some of them use the Line-A functionality
1.1.1.2 root 123: which is not supported by EmuTOS[1] unlike AES/VDI. This is partly a
124: problem with the tools that they've been done with (for example older
125: STOS and GFA basic version liked to use Line-A for graphics). There
1.1.1.4 root 126: are also many old demos which use it for convenience.
1.1.1.2 root 127:
1.1.1.4 root 128: [1] EmuTOS has some old/partial implementations for some of the Line-A
1.1.1.2 root 129: functionality, but these are so buggy that they aren't enabled in
130: EmuTOS releases except for mouse on/off functionality.
131:
1.1.1.4 root 132: Joystick doesn't work in some (STOS) games that access it through
1.1.1.2 root 133: other means than XBIOS function Kbdvbase() or by hooking into the IKBD
1.1.1.4 root 134: interrupt vector. They probably use some unofficial system variables
1.1.1.2 root 135: which location depends on the TOS version.
136:

138: Debugging issues with EmuTOS
139: ============================
140:
1.1.1.8 ! root 141: EmuTOS debug output and debug symbols
! 142: -------------------------------------
! 143:
! 144: To get EmuTOS's own debug output, you need to recompile it from the source
1.1.1.5 root 145: after enabling the MIDI debug output in its config.h header file. Then
1.1.1.8 ! root 146: start Hatari with the "--midi-out /dev/stderr" option and you will see
! 147: the EmuTOS debug output (such as calls to missing Line-A functions).
! 148:
! 149: If you've compiled EmuTOS with AHCC[1], you can get suitable symbols
! 150: with its "-n" linker flag, or you can use a script coming with Hatari
! 151: (ahcc-symbols-convert.sh) to convert AHCC *.map file to "nm" format
! 152: supported by the Hatari debugger.
! 153:
! 154: [1] AHCC: http://members.chello.nl/h.robbers/
! 155:
! 156: After loading the symbols to the debugger, disassembling the
! 157: problematic address should provide more clues for the problem. Or you
! 158: can just look up the program counter value given in the EmuTOS panic
! 159: message from the AHCC emutos.map file.
! 160:
! 161: Debugging panics
! 162: ----------------
! 163:
! 164: When debugging EmuTOS panics, the best option is to start Hatari with
! 165: --bios-intercept (to be able to track Bios & XBios calls) and ask
! 166: Hatari debugger to stop when the program is started:
! 167: -----------
! 168: > b pc=TEXT
! 169: CPU condition breakpoint 1 with 1 condition(s) added:
! 170: pc = TEXT
! 171: > c
! 172: Returning to emulation...
! 173: -----------
! 174: '>' in above example indicates what you type to debugger.
! 175:
! 176: Then when the debugger is invoked at program startup, you can then ask
! 177: it to:
! 178: - collect CPU instruction history,
! 179: - break on exceptions that trigger the panic, and
! 180: - trace all OS calls and line-A opcodes leading to it
! 181: with:
! 182: -----------
! 183: > history on
! 184: > setopt -D
! 185: Exception debugging enabled.
! 186: > trace os_all
! 187: > b LineAOpcode ! LineAOpcode :trace
! 188: CPU condition breakpoint 2 with 1 condition(s) added:
! 189: LineAOpcode ! LineAOpcode
! 190: -> Track value changes, show value(s) when matched.
! 191: -> Trace instead of breaking, but show still hits.
! 192: > c
! 193: Returning to emulation...
! 194: -----------
! 195:
! 196: So that when the exception causing the panic triggers the debug, you
! 197: see the OS calls and line-A opcodes leading to it. You can then ask
! 198: what the register values are at that point and the CPU instructions
! 199: leading to that with the "r" and "history" commands. Memory state and
! 200: addresses accessed by the instructions can be inspected with the "m"
! 201: command.
! 202:
! 203: For more info on Hatari debugger usage, see the Hatari manual section
! 204: on it.
1.1.1.5 root 205:
1.1.1.8 ! root 206: Debugging freezes
! 207: -----------------
1.1.1.5 root 208:
1.1.1.6 root 209: Hatari profiling support can be used to debug OS freezes. If EmuTOS gets
210: stuck, just profile it for a while and then ask debugger for a profile
211: that tells where it's looping and then disassemble that part with symbols
1.1.1.8 ! root 212: directly in Hatari.
1.1.1.5 root 213:
1.1.1.8 ! root 214: With EmuTOS debug symbols, you can also ask debugger to "trace
! 215: cpu_symbols" to get trace of all the EmuTOS function calls.
1.1.1.2 root 216:
217:
218: EmuTOS compatibility lists
219: ==========================
220:
221: The compatibility lists below cater for users who don't have Atari HW
222: and therefore won't have (legal) version of commercial Atari software
223: and most likely lack motivation to investigate applications very
224: deeply (Linux offers better alternatives nowadays for most of that).
1.1.1.8 ! root 225: I.e. the lists skip commercial software and concentrate on EmuTOS
1.1.1.2 root 226: compatibility of freely available games and demos.
227:
228: Games that are considered good quality & fun, are marked with "*".
1.1.1.8 ! root 229: All the listed demos are quite OK. Most demos can be downloaded from:
! 230: http://pouet.net/
1.1.1.2 root 231:
1.1.1.8 ! root 232: First are listed ST demos, games graphics and MIDI applications,
! 233: then STE demos, games and music applications, then TT programs
! 234: and last Falcon demos, games and (mostly music) applications.

! 439: are either use of unsupported line-A functions or with user input.
