reading is now done using the FLAC wrapper. There is now a
samples_iterator class to centralize the logic for handling
the sample list walking.
Also redid the cheesy half-baked votrax device since it relied
on some old samples-based handling. Until we have a real
implementation, it would be good to route the various clients
through the current one to at least wire it up properly, even
if it just plays samples in the end. Will look into that
shortly.

Remove overabstraction in hash.h; it's ok to hard code the
two types of hashes we have. Even adding another one would
not be very difficult. ;)

from 4 to 5. This means any diff CHDs will no longer work. If you
absolutely need to keep the data for any existing ones you have,
find both the diff CHD and the original CHD for the game in question
and upgrade using these commands:
rename diff\game.dif diff\game-old.dif
chdman copy -i diff\game-old.dif -ip roms\game.chd -o diff\game.dif -op roms\game.chd -c none
Specifics regarding this change:
Defined a new CHD version 5. New features/behaviors of this version:
- support for up to 4 codecs; each block can use 1 of the 4
- new LZMA codec, which tends to do better than zlib overall
- new FLAC codec, primarily used for CDs (but can be applied anywhere)
- upgraded AVHuff codec now uses FLAC for encoding audio
- new Huffman codec, used to catch more nearly-uncompressable blocks
- compressed CHDs now use a compressed map for significant savings
- CHDs now are aware of a "unit" size; each hunk holds 1 or more units
(in general units map to sectors for hard disks/CDs)
- diff'ing against a parent now diffs at the unit level, greatly
improving compression
Rewrote and modernized chd.c. CHD versions prior to 3 are unsupported,
and version 3/4 CHDs are only supported for reading. Creating a new
CHD now leaves the file open. Added methods to read and write at the
unit and byte level, removing the need to handle this manually. Added
metadata access methods that pass astrings and dynamic_buffers to
simplify the interfaces. A companion class chd_compressor now
implements full multithreaded compression, analyzing and compressing
multiple hunks independently in parallel. Split the codec
implementations out into a separate file chdcodec.*
Updated harddisk.c and cdrom.c to rely on the caching/byte-level read/
write capabilities of the chd_file class. cdrom.c (and chdman) now also
pad CDs to 4-frame boundaries instead of hunk boundaries, ensuring that
the same SHA1 hashes are produced regardless of the hunk size.
Rewrote chdman.exe entirely, switching from positional parameters to
proper options. Use "chdman help" to get a list of commands, and
"chdman help <command>" to get help for any particular command. Many
redundant commands were removed now that additional flexibility is
available. Some basic mappings:
Old: chdman -createblankhd <out.chd> <cyls> <heads> <secs>
New: chdman createhd -o <out.chd> -chs <cyls>,<heads>,<secs>
Old: chdman -createuncomphd <in.raw> <out.chd> ....
New: chdman createhd -i <in.raw> -o <out.chd> -c none ....
Old: chdman -verifyfix <in.chd>
New: chdman verify -i <in.chd> -f
Old: chdman -merge <parent.chd> <diff.chd> <out.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <diff.chd> -ip <parent.chd> -o <out.chd>
Old: chdman -diff <parent.chd> <compare.chd> <diff.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <compare.chd> -o <diff.chd> -op <parent.chd>
Old: chdman -update <in.chd> <out.chd>
New: chdman copy -i <in.chd> -o <out.chd>
Added new core file coretmpl.h to hold core template classes. For now
just one class, dynamic_array<> is defined, which acts like an array
of a given object but which can be appended to and/or resized. Also
defines dynamic_buffer as dynamic_array<UINT8> for holding an
arbitrary buffer of bytes. Expect to see these used a lot.
Added new core helper hashing.c/.h which defines classes for each of
the common hashing methods and creator classes to wrap the
computation of these hashes. A future work item is to reimplement
the core emulator hashing code using these.
Split bit buffer helpers out into C++ classes and into their own
public header in bitstream.h.
Updated huffman.c/.h to C++, and changed the interface to make it
more flexible to use in nonstandard ways. Also added huffman compression
of the static tree for slightly better compression rates.
Created flac.c/.h as simplified C++ wrappers around the FLAC interface.
A future work item is to convert the samples sound device to a modern
device and leverage this for reading FLAC files.
Renamed avcomp.* to avhuff.*, updated to C++, and added support for
FLAC as the audio encoding mechanism. The old huffman audio is still
supported for decode only.
Added a variant of core_fload that loads to a dynamic_buffer.
Tweaked winwork.c a bit to not limit the maximum number of processors
unless the work queue was created with the WORK_QUEUE_FLAG_HIGH_FREQ
option. Further adjustments here are likely going to be necessary.
Fixed bug in aviio.c which caused errors when reading some AVI files.

and paths consistently for devices, I/O ports, memory
regions, memory banks, and memory shares. [Aaron Giles]
NOTE: there are likely regressions lurking here, mostly
due to devices not being properly found. I have temporarily
added more logging to -verbose to help understand what's
going on. Please let me know ASAP if anything that is being
actively worked on got broken.
As before, the driver device is the root device and all
other devices are owned by it. Previously all devices
were kept in a single master list, and the hierarchy was
purely logical. With this change, each device owns its
own list of subdevices, and the hierarchy is explicitly
manifest. This means when a device is removed, all of its
subdevices are automatically removed as well.
A side effect of this is that walking the device list is
no longer simple. To address this, a new set of iterator
classes is provided, which walks the device tree in a depth
first manner. There is a general device_iterator class for
walking all devices, plus templates for a device_type_iterator
and a device_interface_iterator which are used to build
iterators for identifying only devices of a given type or
with a given interface. Typedefs for commonly-used cases
(e.g., screen_device_iterator, memory_interface_iterator)
are provided. Iterators can also provide counts, and can
perform indexed lookups.
All device name lookups are now done relative to another
device. The maching_config and running_machine classes now
have a root_device() method to get the root of the hierarchy.
The existing machine->device("name") is now equivalent to
machine->root_device().subdevice("name").
A proper and normalized device path structure is now
supported. Device names that start with a colon are
treated as absolute paths from the root device. Device
names can also use a caret (^) to refer to the owning
device. Querying the device's tag() returns the device's
full path from the root. A new method basetag() returns
just the final tag.
The new pathing system is built on top of the
device_t::subtag() method, so anyone using that will
automatically support the new pathing rules. Each device
has its own internal map to cache successful lookups so
that subsequent lookups should be very fast.
Updated every place I could find that referenced devices,
memory regions, I/O ports, memory banks and memory shares
to leverage subtag/subdevice (or siblingtag/siblingdevice
which are built on top).
Removed the device_list class, as it doesn't apply any
more. Moved some of its methods into running_machine
instead.
Simplified the device callback system since the new
pathing can describe all of the special-case devices that
were previously handled manually.
Changed the core output function callbacks to be delegates.
Completely rewrote the validity checking mechanism. The
validity checker is now a proper C++ class, and temporarily
takes over the error and warning outputs. All errors and
warnings are collected during a session, and then output in
a consistent manner, with an explicit driver and source file
listed for each one, as well as additional device and/or
I/O port contexts where appropriate. Validity checkers
should no longer explicitly output this information, just
the error, assuming that the context is provided.
Rewrote the software_list_device as a modern device, getting
rid of the software_list_config abstraction and simplifying
things.
Changed the way FLAC compiles so that it works like other
external libraries, and also compiles successfully for MSVC
builds.

the offending bit was the call of record->shared_source() without having explicitly set m_shared_source to NULL.
it might be worth to initialize m_shared_source to NULL, but I was not 100% sure about effects on other rom verification routines, so for the moment I simply set it to NULL when verifying samples

existing modern devices and the legacy wrappers to work in this
environment. This in general greatly simplifies writing a modern
device. [Aaron Giles]
General notes:
* some more cleanup probably needs to happen behind this change,
but I needed to get it in before the next device modernization
or import from MESS :)
* new template function device_creator which automatically defines
the static function that creates the device; use this instead of
creating a static_alloc_device_config function
* added device_stop() method which is called at around the time
the previous device_t's destructor was called; if you auto_free
anything, do it here because the machine is gone when the
destructor is called
* changed the static_set_* calls to pass a device_t & instead of
a device_config *
* for many devices, the static config structure member names over-
lapped the device's names for devcb_* functions; in these cases
the members in the interface were renamed to have a _cb suffix
* changed the driver_enumerator to only cache 100 machine_configs
because caching them all took a ton of memory; fortunately this
implementation detail is completely hidden behind the
driver_enumerator interface
* got rid of the macros for creating derived classes; doing it
manually is now clean enough that it isn't worth hiding the
details in a macro

loader rewrite, which is still in progress....)
Replaced mamedriv.c with a new driver list mechanism that is generated
by the build tools. The emulator core now expects the presence of a
file called src/$(TARGET)/$(SUBTARGET).lst which is just a raw list of
driver names, one per line. C and C++ comments are still permitted.
This file is parsed by a new build tool makelist which extracts the
driver names, sorts them, and generates a file called drivlist.c, which
is consumed by the core. [Aaron Giles]
Added new osdcore function osd_malloc_array() which is identical to
osd_malloc() but obviously hints that the underlying allocation is for
an array. Updated all callers to use the appropriate form. Modified the
Windows allocator to only use guard pages for array-style allocations,
allowing us to enable them once again in debug builds. [Aaron Giles]
Created new static class driver_list to wrap accesses to the list of
available drivers. Improved speed of driver lookups by relying on the
presorting done by makelist. [Aaron Giles]
Created helper class driver_enumerator as a helper for iterating through
the list of drivers. This class supports basic filtering and iteration,
and also serves as a temporary cache of machine_configs. [Aaron Giles]
Created cli_frontend object to wrap all the CLI handling code in
clifront.c. Updated/simplified all the code to take advantage of the
driver_enumerator. [Aaron Giles]
Created media_auditor object to wrap all the auditing functions in
audit.c. Updated all users to the new interface. Note that the new
auditing mechanism is slightly out of sync with the romload code in
terms of finding ROMs owned by devices, so it may mis-report some
issues until the new ROM loading code is in. [Aaron Giles]
Added concept of a per-device searchpath. For most devices, their
searchpath is just the short name of the device. For driver_devices, the
searchpath is driver[;parent[;bios]]. This searchpath will eventually be
used by the rom loader to find ROMs. For now it is used by the media
auditor only. [Aaron Giles]
Created info_xml_creator object to wrap all the info generation functions
in info.c. Converted the file to C++ and cleaned up the input processing
code. [Aaron Giles]
(not for whatsnew ... Known issues: auditing of CHDs appears busted, and
debug builds report unfreed memory if you use the built-in game picker)

functionality in favor of alternate mechanisms. Errors are
now reported via an astring rather than via callbacks. Every
option must now specify a type (command, integer, float, string,
boolean, etc). Command behavior has changed so that only one
command is permitted. [Aaron Giles]
Changed fileio system to accept just a raw searchpath instead of
an options/option name combination. [Aaron Giles]
Created emu_options class dervied from core_options which wraps
core emulator options. Added mechanisms to cleanly change the
system name and add/remove system-specific options, versus the
old way using callbacks. Also added read accessors for all the
options, to ensure consistency in how parameters are handled.
Changed most core systems to access emu_options instead of
core_options. Also changed machine->options() to return emu_options.
[Aaron Giles]
Created cli_options class derived from emu_options which adds the
command-line specific options. Updated clifront code to leverage
the new class and the new core behaviors. cli_execute() now accepts
a cli_options object when called. [Aaron Giles]
Updated both SDL and Windows to have their own options classes,
derived from cli_options, which add the OSD-specific options on
top of everything else. Added accessors for all the options so
that queries are strongly typed and simplified. [Aaron Giles]
Out of whatsnew: I've surely screwed up some stuff, though I have
smoke tested a bunch of things. Let me know if you hit anything odd.
Also I know this change will impact the WINUI stuff, please let me
know if there are issues. All the functionality necessary should
still be present. If it's not obvious, please talk to me before
adding stuff to the core_options class.

and manages a collection of hashes, and can be built from an internal
format string which is stored with each ROM. All core instances are
cleaned up to use the new interfaces, but it's likely that hashfile
code in MESS will need an update.
Also compacted the form of the hash strings used for ROMs, and fixed
verification/hashing of non-ZIPped files.

to pass a core_options object to the constructor, along with
a search path. This required pushing either a running_machine
or a core_options through some code that wasn't previously
ready to handle it. emu_files can be reused over multiple
open/close sessions, and a lot of core code cleaned up
nicely as things were converted to them.
Also created a file_enumerator class for iterating over files
in a searchpath. This replaces the old mame_openpath functions.
Changed machine->options() to return a reference.
Removed public nvram_open() and fixed jchan/kaneko16 to
stop directly saving NVRAM.
Removed most of the mame_options() calls; this will soon go
away entirely, so don't add any more.
Added core_options to device_validity_check() so they can be
used to validate things.

device interface. This means all ROMs are now exposed via devices,
and thus the process of enumerating ROMs gets simpler.
Changed all instances of temporarily allocating machine_config objects
to just put them on the stack for simplicity, letting the destructor
handle the cleanup work automatically.
Changed machine_config constructor to take a game_driver, from which
the machine_config constructor is obtained. This also means the
resulting machine_config holds a reference to the game_driver.
Changed running_machine constructor to no longer take a game_driver,
since the game_driver is now obtainable via the machine_config.

Subject: [patch] Despecialize legacy sound devices
To: submit@mamedev.org
Cc: atariace@hotmail.com
Hi mamedev,
While poking around in the MAME source code, I came across the odd
type snes_sound_sound_device, which led me to the fact that legacy
sound devices are named a bit differently than other legacy devices,
probably a kludge intended to be changed later but forgotten. Anyhow,
this patch fixes it. The first patch goes part way, changing all but
the tag (which fixes the weird type issue). It also changes type
names in the scsp and msm5232 cores to avoid a name collision if/when
the second patch is applied. The second patch then touches a lot of
files, mostly removing the SOUND_ prefix from type asserts, but it
also needed to change the tags for the LASERDISC, S2636 and SPEAKER
sound cores to avoid collisions with other devices with the same name.

this object which can be called multiple times to append new devices
after the initial machine configuration is set up. Updated member
variables to match new naming convention.
Changed the running_machine to take a constructed machine_config
object in the constructor, instead of creating one itself, for
consistency. Also added machine->total_colors() as a shortcut to
machine->config->m_total_colors.
