DESCRIPTION

init_banks

initializes the bank handling and reads the bank contents from the directory *rom_path with the file *bank_mapping_descr containing the bank mapping description. It returns the number of usable bank entries in the description file.

reset_banks

does a reset to the banks meaning going to the default initialization.

bank_port

can be used to test a port whether it is reserved for bank switching. If this is the case it returns the positive bank port no else 0.

switch_bank

switches the bank id into memory at the position defined by bank port no i.

clear_memory

sets these parts of the 64kB RAM to 0 which are writeable.

memory_at

returns the byte value at position index in the memory. Can not be used by the decoding or execution unit of the CPU because it by-passes the CPU.

io_address

holds the location of an external supplied byte by the hardware.

read_addr

returns the byte value correspoing to the address index. This may be an IO-address in which case io_address is just to locate the byte.

read_memo

returns the byte value correspoing to the address index from memory.

write_memo

writes the byte value data into memory at address index provided this address is writeable.

write_to_memory

writes the byte value data to address index provided this address is writeable. It returns the previous value at the address. This function can not be used by the execution unit because it by-passes the CPU. It is demanded from compile(void) which is called from z80-mon.

dma_write

transfers into memory starting at address offset count many bytes directly from file from by passing the CPU.

dma_read

transfers from memory address offset count many bytes directly into file to by passing the CPU.
