[PATCH 00/12] macfb: fixes for booting MacOS


From: Mark Cave-Ayland
Subject: [PATCH 00/12] macfb: fixes for booting MacOS
Date: Sat, 2 Oct 2021 11:59:55 +0100

This is the next set of patches to allow users to boot MacOS in QEMU's
q800 machine.

Patches 1 to 3 are fixes for existing bugs that I discovered whilst
developing the remainder of the patchset whilst patch 4 simplifies the
registration of the framebuffer RAM.

Patch 5 adds trace events to the framebuffer register accesses. The
framebuffer registers are not officially documented, so the macfb
device changes here are based upon reading of Linux/NetBSD source code,
using gdbstub during the MacOS toolbox ROM initialisation, and changing
the framebuffer size/depth within MacOS itself with these trace events
enabled.

Patches 6 and 7 implement the mode sense logic documented in Apple
Technical Note HW26 "Macintosh Quadra Built-In Video" and configure the
default display type to be VGA.

Patch 8 implements the common monitor modes used for VGA at 640x480 and
800x600 for 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24-bit depths and also the Apple 21" color
monitor at 1152x870 with 8-bit depth.

Patches 9 and 10 fix up errors in the 1-bit and 24-bit pixel encodings
discovered when testing these color depths in MacOS.

Patch 11 adds a timer to implement the 60.15Hz VBL interrupt which is
required for MacOS to process mouse movements, whilst patch 12 wires the
same interrupt to a dedicated pin on VIA2 reserved for the video
interrupt on the Quadra 800.
