15-Jan-15 MP Initial implementation | |
01-Apr-15 MP Added register indirect, mem_examine and mem_deposit | |
03-Apr-15 MP Added logic to pass simulator startup messages in | |
panel error text if the connection to the simulator | |
shuts down while it is starting. | |
04-Apr-15 MP Added mount and dismount routines to connect and | |
disconnect removable media | |
This module defines interface between a front panel application and a simh | |
simulator. Facilities provide ways to gather information from and to | |
observe and control the state of a simulator. | |
Any application which wants to use this API needs to: | |
1) include this file in the application code | |
2) compile sim_frontpanel.c and sim_sock.c from the top level directory | |
of the simh source. | |
3) link the sim_frontpanel and sim_sock object modules and libpthreads | |
into the application. | |
4) Use a simh simulator built from the same version of simh that the | |
sim_frontpanel and sim_sock modules came from. | |

The frontpanel API exposes the state of a simulator via access to | |

registers (PC, PSL, SP, etc.), but also include anything else | |
the simulator uses as internal state to implement the running | |
simulator. | |

access to are specified by the application when it calls: | |

device_name the device this register is part of. Defaults to | |
the device of the panel (in a device panel) or the | |
default device in the simulator (usually the CPU). | |

size the size (in local storage) of the buffer which will | |
receive the data in the simulator's register | |
addr a pointer to the location of the buffer which will | |
be loaded with the data in the simulator's register | |
bit_width the number of values to populate in the bits array | |
bits an array of integers which is bit_width long that | |
will receive each bit's current accumulated value. | |
The accumulated value will range from 0 thru the | |
the sample_depth specified when calling | |
sim_panel_set_sampling_parameters(). | |

A panel application has a choice of two different methods of getting | |
the values contained in the set of registers it has declared interest in via | |
the sim_panel_add_register APIs. | |
1) The values can be polled (whenever it is desired) by calling | |
sim_panel_get_registers(). | |
2) The panel can call sim_panel_set_display_callback_interval() to | |
specify a callback routine and a periodic rate that the callback | |
routine should be called. The panel API will make a best effort | |
to deliver the current register state at the desired rate. | |
Note 1: The buffers described in a panel's register set will be | |
dynamically revised as soon as data is available from the | |
simulator. The callback routine merely serves as a notification | |
that a complete register set has arrived. | |
Note 2: The callback routine should, in general, not run for a long time | |
or frontpanel interactions with the simulator may be disrupted. | |
Setting a flag, signaling an event or posting a message are | |
reasonable activities to perform in a callback routine. | |
