RAM and stack size - can now be set by calling _mem_init() manually before allocating any memory. - -* libc: sprintf() now supports fixed padding when using %@ (binary integer). - -* psxapi: Added wrapper around BIOS function GetSystemInfo(). - -* examples: Added pads example. Also added CMake build script to cartrom, which - is now built alongside all other examples. - -* Deprecated malloc.h and removed all references to it (stdlib.h should be used - instead). Moved int*_t and uint*_t types to stdint.h. - -* Fixed file permission errors when attempting to install the SDK on macOS. - Made some small updates to INSTALL.md. - - -10-31-2021 by spicyjpeg: - -* Added tinyxml2 and mkpsxiso as git submodules and removed the (admittedly - short-lived) SKIP_* options completely. CMake's ExternalProject is no longer - used to download dependencies at build time. - -* Added CMake presets file with presets for building installer packages. - - -10-25-2021 by Lameguy64: - -* Made a very tiny change in the readme file. - -* Included some of the indev directory from the SVN repository. - - -10-17-2021 by spicyjpeg: - -* Added SKIP_TINYXML2 and SKIP_MKPSXISO build options in place of the old - SKIP_DOWNLOAD option, and a new BUNDLE_TOOLCHAIN option for building packages. - Updated INSTALL.md accordingly and fixed git branch error when downloading - mkpsxiso during build. - -* Rewritten toolchain.txt (which is now TOOLCHAIN.md) and added proper Windows - toolchain build instructions. - -* Added safety checks in CMake scripts to ensure elf2x/mkpsxiso are installed - before attempting to build an executable or CD image. - -* examples: Added CMake build script to (and removed makefile from) vagsample. - - -10-06-2021 by Lameguy64: - -* psxspu: Fixed register typo in SpyKeyOn causing unpredictable instability. - -* psxspu: Fixed bug where SpuKeyOn does not set the key-on bits for voices 16 to 23. - -* examples: Added vagsample SPU example. - - -09-27-2021 by spicyjpeg: - -* liblzp, tools: Fixed tools not building on MSVC and cleaned up LZP API - declarations (replaced meaningless void* pointers with proper types). - -* libpsn00b: Added missing PSN00BSDK_VERSION CMake variable. - -* examples: Fixed childexec (parent.exe) example crashing due to the child - executable not being relocated in the new build script. Patched n00bdemo to - suppress liblzp pointer type warnings. - -* Fixed another MSVC linker error when building tinyxml2 automatically, as well - as various toolchain/compiler test errors sometimes thrown by CMake. Updated - INSTALL.md with more details. - - -09-13-2021 by spicyjpeg: - -* Migrated libpsn00b, tools, examples and template to CMake, added a top-level - CMakeLists.txt and the libpsn00b/cmake directory for CMake setup scripts, got - rid of the old makefiles and installation method. - -* Updated docs to match the new build system, moved installation instructions - to INSTALL.md and added doc/cmake_reference.md describing the SDK's CMake - API and variables. - -* mkpsxiso: Added rules to automatically download, build and install mkpsxiso - (as well as its dependencies) as part of the SDK. - -* cpack: Added initial CPack support and created the cpack directory containing - branding assets for installers built through CPack. A shell script is - provided to regenerate the assets from their source SVGs. - -* liblzp: Copied library headers to libpsn00b/include/lzp. - -* psxetc: Fixed a random typo in a javadoc comment (those should be eventually - rewritten into proper documentation anyway). - -* Added CMake, VS Code and DLL related entries to .gitignore. - - -08-16-2021 by spicyjpeg: - -* psxetc: Added dynamic linking APIs (dl*, DL_*), implemented in dl.c and - _dl_resolve_wrapper.s. The APIs can be accessed by including dlfcn.h, while - another header (elf.h) provides structs and enums to help with manual parsing - of library headers. - -* libc: Removed _mem_init.s, improved heap initialization code. Added support - for setting how much RAM to use for the stack (by defining STACK_MAX_SIZE) - and for overriding/replacing the default memory allocator. - -* psxapi: Added wrapper around BIOS function FlushCache(). - -* psxspu: Fixed wrong bounds check in SpuSetTransferStartAddr(). - -* examples: Added an example showing how to compile dynamically-loaded - libraries (DLLs) and load them at runtime using the new dynamic linker. - -* libpsn00b: Added libpsn00b/ldscripts directory and linker scripts for both - executables and DLLs. Also fixed several broken header files (psxgpu.h not - including sys/types.h, missing scanf() declarations, ...). - -* Rewritten most makefiles (both for libraries and examples) and centralized - all compiler flags into a single psn00bsdk-setup.mk file for consistency and - easier editing. Added flags to build libpsn00b without gp-relative addressing - for compatibility with the dynamic linker. Also added nm commands to generate - symbol maps required by the linker. - - -07-01-2021 by Lameguy64: - -* Libpsn00b: Added int8_t, int16_t, int32_t, int64_t, uint8_t, uint16_t, - uint32_t and uint64_t variable types in sys/types.h. - -* psxgte: Replaced unsigned int variable types with u_long to further - improve compatibility with code written for the official Sony SDK and - to make my tutorial examples easier to compile on PSn00bSDK. Example - programs have been updated to account for this change. - -* psxcd: Changed type of 2nd argument of CdRead() from u_int to u_long, - as well as changing the type of the size element in CdlFILE from u_int - to u_long. - - -02-17-2021 by Lameguy64: - -* Improved build instructions in readme file and fixed some typos. - -* Improved toolchain.txt instructions. - -* tools: Added experimental elf2cpe converter for executing PSn00bSDK - programs in official development units.

Library installation and linking is also made easier - with the PSN00BSDK_LIBS environment variable. See readme in the libpsn00b - directory for details. - -* examples: Fixed libgcc not found error when compiling some of the examples. - -* libc: Added strtok(). - -* libc: Added support for command line arguments. Pass arguments via - SYSTEM.CNF BOOT= string or a string array with Exec(). Arguments can - be read via argc/argv[] in main() or __argc/__argv anywhere else. - -* libc: Added SetHeapSize(). - -* psxgpu: Moved ISR and callback subsystem to psxetc. You'll have to link - psxetc after psxgpu and psxapi after psxetc in your library string. - -* psxetc: Moved debug font functions (FntInit(), FntOpen(), etc) to psxgpu. - -* psxetc: Fixed stack management in RestartCallback(). - -* examples: Added argument passing in childexec example. - -* psxcd: Fixed crashing on PSIO and possibly some emulators by implementing - a response buffer read limiter. - -* psxgpu: Interrupts are now disabled before setting up ISR and callbacks - in ResetGraph(), as LoadExec() still has interrupts enabled when jumping - to the loaded PS-EXE's entrypoint. Fixes programs made with PSn00bSDK - crashing at ResetGraph() on PSIO when loading from the Menu System and - possibly some emulators. - - -07-25-2020 by Lameguy64: - -* psxgte: Added ScaleMatrixL(). - -* doc: Corrected documentation for CdReadSync() function. - -* psxcd: Added new define: CdlIsoLidOpen. - -* psxcd: Updated media change detection logic, media change is checked - by lid open status bit in all CD-ROM file functions. CdControl() calls will - also trigger the media change status on lid open. - -* psxcd: Fixed bug in CdGetVolumeLabel() where it constantly reparses the file - system regardless of media change status. - -* examples: Updated cdrom/cdbrowse example slightly. - -* psxcd: Added CdLoadSession(). - -* psxcd: Fixed bug where CdReadDir() locks up in an infinite loop when it - encounters a NULL directory record, and the parser has not yet exceeded the - length of the directory record. - -* doc: Replaced library version numbers with SVN revision numbers in the - introduced fields. - -* doc: Started work on CD-ROM library overview. - - -04-24-2020 by Lameguy64: - -* Refined toolchain instructions a bit. - -* psxcd: Added automatic read retry for CdRead() operations, as long as - CdReadSync() is called until read completion. - -* psxapi: Added BIOS atoi() and atol() calls. Temporary, may be replaced with - a faster implementation - -* psxsio: Added ioctl() support for FIOCSCAN to probe for pending input in - serial tty driver. - -* examples: Reorganized examples, added new tty and console examples. - - -03-11-2020 by Lameguy64: - -* psxcd: Fixed CdInit() syntax (there should be no arguments). - -* psxcd: Fixed CdlFILE, loc variable renamed to pos. - -* documentation: Improved and updated toolchain instructions a bit. - - -02-28-2020 by Lameguy64: - -* documentation: Added docs for CdOpenDir(), CdReadDir() and CdCloseDir(). - -* psxgpu: Added GetODE(). - -* psxspu: Fixed SpuKeyOn() bug where only 16 of the 24 channels can be - activated, due to channel bits being written as a 16-bit word. - -* psxcd: Added CdOpenDir(), CdReadDir() and CdCloseDir() for parsing directories. - -* psxcd: Issuing CdlNop (GetStat) commands now triggers the media change flag - internal to the libraries when CD lid is opened, so file system functions can - update the cached ISO descriptor when the disc has been changed. - -* psxcd: Made internal variables and functions for iso9660 parsing static. - - -02-25-2020 by thp: - -* libc: Added abs and labs() functions. - - -01-06-2020 by Lameguy64: - -* libpsn00b: Renamed libpsxcd directory to psxcd to match with other libraries. - -* examples: Added obligatory hello world example. - -* documentation: Added CD-ROM library documentation. - - -11-22-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* psxapi: Added root counter or timer functions and related definitions. - -* examples: Added timer example. - -* psxgpu: Added DR_AREA, DR_OFFSET and DR_TWIN primitives and accompanying - setDrawArea(), setDrawOffset() and setTexWindow() macros. - -* psxgpu: Added parenthesis to argument value in setlen(), setaddr() and - setcode() macros, preventing addPrims() from being used in a more - sensible manner (ie. addPrims(ot, sub_ot+3, sub_ot)). - -* examples: Added render2tex render to texture example. - -* psxspu: Fixed typo in spuinit.s on section specifier specifying a data - section instead of text section, resulting to jump to - non-instruction-aligned linker errors. - -* psxgpu: Increased ISR stack size to 2048 bytes. - -* psxsio: Added kbhit() to poll keyboard input asynchronously and stdin - is now buffered with an IRQ handler. - -* psxapi: Added AddDummyTty() (for psxsio DelSIO() fix). - -* psxsio: DelSIO() now calls AddDummyTty(). - -* libc: Fixed bug in strncpy() not placing a NULL byte at end of string. - -* libc: Fixed strchr() and strrchr() declarations commented out in string.h. - -* libpsn00b: Added the long awaited libpsxcd library with cdxa example. - Documentation will come soon but existing libcd docs should be good - enough for awhile. - -* psxgpu: Fixed non functioning GPU DMA wait in DrawSync(). - -* LibPSn00b run-time library is now officially 0.15b. - - -10-11-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* psxetc: Added FntOpen(), FntPrint() and FntFlush() functions. - -* psxgpu: Fixed typo in termPrim() macro (value too long). - -* examples: Added billboarding sprites example. - -* psxapi: Transferred putchar() BIOS function to libc. - -* libpsn00b: Updated makefiles adding -fdata-sections and -ffunction-sections - so unused functions will be stripped out, which yields smaller executables. - -* libc: Fixed negative integers not displaying properly in vsprintf()/vsnprintf(). - -* libc: Fixed zero padding not working in vsprintf()/vsnprintf(). - -* fpscam: Added debug text using FntOpen(), FntPrint() and FntFlush(). Also added - _boot() call for returning to CD based serial loaders. - - -09-23-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* libc: Added strcat() function. - -* Included PSn00bSDK logo vector. - -* psxgte: Added gte_stsz() macro. - -* psxgpu: Fixed typos in setUVWH() macro. - -* Added _boot() BIOS function (A(A0h) aka Warmboot, useful for CD based - serial loaders). - - -08-17-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* LibPSn00b run-time library is officially version 0.13b. - -* examples: updated balls and n00bdemo examples for the setDrawTPage() - correction. - -* psxgpu: Fixed error on setDrawTPage() syntax and removed setDrawTPageVal() - macro (not needed). - -* psxapi: Added event handler definitions related to memory cards. - -* psxapi: Added BIOS memory card functions. - -* examples: Added childexec example demonstrating a parent executable - transferring execution to a child executable and back. - -* elf2x: s_addr no longer set on PS-EXE header, console BIOS already sets it - by STACK value in SYSTEM.CNF and allows child executables to return to - parent if left zero. - -* psxapi: Renamed _InitPad(), _StartPad() and _StopPad() to InitPAD(), - StartPAD() and StopPAD() respectively. Fpscam example updated to new - syntax. - - -07-18-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* Added fpscam example. - -* Gave examples small descriptions. - -* Updated readme a little. - - -07-17-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* LibPSn00b run-time library is officially version 0.12b. - -* libc: Added basic C++ support (many thanks to ijacquez). - -* libc: Updated start function that should make it possible for a child - executable to return to a parent executable, return logic automatically - calls EnterCriticalSection(). - -* libc: Updated build method which takes libgcc from the compiler and adds - its own object files into it, eliminating linker problems caused by having - to order libc and libgcc libraries in a specific manner. - -* psxgpu: Added RestartCallback(). - -* psxgpu: Added StoreImage() function. - -* psxgpu: Fixed bugged setRECT() macro. - -* libc: Added assert.h. - -* examples: Balls example now has 166% more balls. - -* psxgpu: Increased ISR stack size to 1024 bytes so printf can be used in - callbacks safely. - -* libc: Removed int64 (long long) printing in vsprintf() for better - performance, as the R3000 does not support 64-bit arithmetic natively - so its emulated like floats. int64 still used for processing floats and - doubles and old vsprintf.c file is still included for those who really - want int64 support for whatever reason. - -* libc: Removed stdarg.h which is part of GCC and not license compatible - with MPL. The toolchain compiled with libgcc provides stdarg.h and other - standard headers. - -* examples: Updated sdk-common.mk variable convention for better flexibility. - -* libpsn00b: Added common.mk file containing global values for all libraries. - -* Updated library and toolchain build instructions. - -* psxgpu: Fixed bug in DMACallback where the internal DMA handler would fail - to install due to GetInterruptCallback() retrieving the callback value - immediately in the branch delay slot of a jr instruction, which resuls to - an inconsistent return value. This also broke DrawSyncCallback(). - -* psxsio: Done fixes on _sio_control() from the aformentioned issues with load - instructions in delay slots. - -* psxgte: Added DVECTOR struct. - -* psxgpu: Added setLineF2(), setLineG2(), setLineF3() and setLineG3() - primitive macros. - -* Added more functions in documentation. - - -07-01-2019 by williamblair: - -* Fixed FntLoad() Y coordinate not working properly for debug font (due to - Y coordinate not being specified for the getTPage() macro. - - -06-23-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* LibPSn00b Run-time Library is officially version 0.10b. - -* Reworked readme file with improved build instructions. - -* libpsn00b: Added missing C extern groups for C++ compatibility in - psxapi.h, stdlib.h and string.h. - -* libpsn00b: Removed changelogs in the readmes of each libpsn00b library - as its much easier to keep track of changes in a single changelog than - scattering them across multiple changelogs. - -* psxapi: Added Exec() function and EXEC struct. - -* psxgpu: Added DrawPrim() function (uses direct I/O). - -* psxgpu: VSync() function completely overhauled. Logic is now based on - Sony's code but more efficient and can return total number of vblanks - elapsed, number of hblanks since last call and wait up to n vblanks - specified by an appropriate argument value. It will also generate a - timeout when vblank interrupt stops working and would attempt to - restart it. - -* psxapi: Added gets() and getc() BIOS functions. - -* psxapi: Corrected a putc()/putchar() discrepancy. putc() puts a character - to a file stream, putchar() puts a character to stdout. - -* Completely revised library reference manual with better formatting and - more functions documented. - -* psxgpu: Added DrawSyncCallback(). - -* psxgpu: Implemented DMA interrupt callback system with DMACallback() - allowing to handle DMA interrupts very easily. - -* libpsn00b: Implemented Serial I/O library (psxsio) with serial tty device - (installed using AddSIO) and serial callback support. Serial library - is also fully documented. - -* psxgpu: Implemented IRQ callback system with InterruptCallback() allowing - to set interrupt callbacks very easily. - -* psxgpu: Implemented proper IRQ handler installed using HookEntryInt or - SetCustomExitFromException() for handling VSync and other interrupts. - ChangeClearPAD(0) must now be called after _InitPad() or vsync timeout - will occur. - -* libpsn00b: Started making local labels prefixed with .L instead of . making - them not appear in symbol lists resulting in a cleaner symbol dump. Still - not possible to do function-scope local labels like in ASMPSX because GAS - syntax is ASS (or ASS GAS which is farts, GAS is farts). - -* psxgpu: DrawSync() function now waits for DMA completion and GPU transfer - ready instead of simply waiting for GPU transfer ready which is the likely - cause of subtle GPU related timing issues, it also sets GPU DMA transfer - mode to off afterwards. It can also read number of words remaining in DMA - transfer if a0 is non-zero but it likely only returns the correct value on - VRAM transfers. Exact way how DrawSync() returns the count in the official - SDK is currently unknown. - - -06-07-2019 by qbradq: - -* lzpack: Swapped a buffer length litteral with sizeof operator, fixing a - stack overflow bug in some instances. - - -05-23-2019 by Lameguy64: - -* Added dev notes.txt file in docs that includes notes about the many - quirks about the console discovered during the development of this - SDK project. - -* Updated libn00bref.odf a little. - -* Added turboboot example. - -* Added rgb24 example. - -* Got custom exit handler set using SetCustomExitFromException() (BIOS - function B(19h)) working. Currently used to acknowledge VSync IRQ but - actual VSync handling is still done with events and needs to be - transferred to the custom exit handler. At least it lets BIOS - controller functions to work now. See doc/dev notes.txt for details - on how this handler behaves. - -* Made stack usage in ResetGraph() less wasteful. You only need to - allocate N words on stack based on N arguments of the function - being called. - -* VSync IRQ handling now done using a custom exit from exception handler. - Actual VSync handling is yet to be moved to the custom exit handler - though. - -* Made stack usage in start.s of libc a lot less wasteful. - -* Implemented controller support via BIOS functions (use _InitPad(), - _StartPad() and _StopPad()). BIOS memory card functions may also - work as well but its not tested yet. - -* Removed duplicate initpad.s and initcard.s functions in psxapi. - -* Added _InitCd() function to psxapi which is a safer version of _96_init() - as it preserves other DMA channel settings. Use BIOS file functions such - as open(), read() and close() with path names starting with cdrom:/ to - access files from CD after calling _InitCd(). |
