GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 3, 29 June 2007
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
software and other kinds of works.
The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply it to
your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you have
certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
know their rights.
Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
authors of previous versions.
Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
protecting users' freedom to change the software. The systematic
pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable. Therefore, we
have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
products. If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL assures that
patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
0. Definitions.
"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
works, such as semiconductor masks.
"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
on the Program.
To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
public, and in some countries other activities as well.
To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user through
a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
1. Source Code.
The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
for making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source
form of a work.
A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
is widely used among developers working in that language.
The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
includes interface definition files associated with source files for
the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
subprograms and other parts of the work.
The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
Source.
The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
same work.
2. Basic Permissions.
All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
in force. You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
not control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works
for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
the conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
makes it unnecessary.
3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
measures.
When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
technological measures.
4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
it, and giving a relevant date.
b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
released under this License and any conditions added under section
7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
"keep intact all notices".
c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
work need not make them do so.
A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
parts of the aggregate.
6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
in one of these ways:
a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
customarily used for software interchange.
b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
(including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
with subsection 6b.
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
charge under subsection 6d.
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
included in conveying the object code work.
A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage. For a particular
product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product. A product
is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
the only significant mode of use of the product.
"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The information must
suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
modification has been made.
If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
been installed in ROM).
The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
the User Product in which it has been modified or installed. Access to a
network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
protocols for communication across the network.
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
source code form), and must require no special password or key for
unpacking, reading or copying.
7. Additional Terms.
"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
this License without regard to the additional permissions.
When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
Notices displayed by works containing it; or
c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
authors of the material; or
e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
those licensors and authors.
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
governed by this License along with a term that is a further
restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
not survive such relicensing or conveying.
If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
where to find the applicable terms.
Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
the above requirements apply either way.
8. Termination.
You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
paragraph of section 11).
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
material under section 10.
9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
11. Patents.
A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
this License.
Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
propagate the contents of its contributor version.
In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
patent against the party.
If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
country that you have reason to believe are valid.
If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
work and works based on it.
A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
specifically granted under this License. You may not convey a covered
work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
combination as such.
14. Revised Versions of this License.
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will
be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
version or of any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of the
GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
by the Free Software Foundation.
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
to choose that version for the Program.
Later license versions may give you additional or different
permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
later version.
15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. Limitation of Liability.
IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
copy of the Program in return for a fee.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
(at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the
GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
along with this program. If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
<program> Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License. Of course, your program's commands
might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you
may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
Public License instead of this License. But first, please read
<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-not-lgpl.html>.

This directory ("Binary") is part of the RomWBW System Software
distribution archive. It contains the completed binary outputs of
the build process. As described below, these files are used to
assemble a working RetroBrew Computers system.
The files in this directory are created by the build process that is
documented in the ReadMe.txt file in the Source directory. When
released the directory is populated with the default output files.
However, the output of custom builds will be placed in this directory
as well.
ROM Firmware Images (<plt>_<cfg>.rom)
-------------------------------------
The files with a ".rom" extension are binary images ready to program
into an appropriate PROM. These files are named with the format
<plt>_<cfg>.rom. <plt> refers to the primary platform such as Zeta,
N8, Mark IV, etc. <cfg> refers to the specific configuration. When
released, there will be a standard configuration ("std") for each
platform. So, for example, the file called MK4_std.rom is a ROM
image for the Mark IV with the standard configuration. If a custom
configuration called "custom" is created and built, a new file called
MK4_custom.rom will be added to this directory.
Documentation of the pre-built ROM Images is contained in the
RomList.txt file.
ROM Executable Images (<plt>_<cfg>.com)
---------------------------------------
When a ROM image (".rom") is created, an executable version of the
ROM is also created. These files have the same naming convention as
the ROM Image files, but have the extension ".com". These files can
be copied to a working system and run like a normal application.
When run on the target system, they install in RAM just like they had
been programmed into the ROM. This allows a new ROM build to be
tested without reprogramming the actual ROM.
ROM Binary Images (<plt>_<cfg>.img)
-----------------------------------
Also when a ROM image is created, a third variation of the ROM is
created again with the same naming convention, but with the extension
of .img. These files are similar to the .com files in that they can
be used to test a ROM build without actually programming a new ROM.
The .img files are specifically for loading via UNA from a FAT file
system. The functionality of the UNA FAT file system loader is
beyond the scope of this document.
VDU ROM Image (vdu.rom)
-----------------------
The VDU video board requires a dedicated onboard ROM containing the
font data. The "vdu.rom" file contains the binary data to program
onto that chip.
Disk Images (fd*.img, hd*.img)
------------------------------
RomWBW includes a mechanism for generating floppy disk and hard disk
binary images that are ready to copy directly to a floppy, hard disk,
CF Card, or SD Card which will then be ready for use in any
RomWBW-based system.
Essentially, these files contain prepared floppy and hard disk images
with a large set of programs and related files. By copying the
contents of these files to appropriate media as described below, you
can quickly create ready-to-use media.
The fd*.img files are floppy disk images. They are sized for 1.44MB
floppy media and can be copied to actual floppy disks using
RawWriteWin (as long as you have access to a floppy drive on your
Windows computer). The resulting floppy disks will be usable on any
RomWBW-based system with floppy drive(s).
Likewise, the hd*.img files are hard disk images. Each file is
intended to be copied to the start of any type of hard disk media
(typically a CF Card or SD Card). The resulting media will be usable
on any RomWBW-based system that accepts the corresponding media type.
Note that the contents of the floppy/hard disk images are created by
the BuildImages.cmd script in the Source directory. Additional
information on how to generate custom disk images is found in the
Source\Images directory.
Propeller ROM Images (*.eeprom)
-------------------------------
The files with and extension of ".eeprom" contain the binary images
to be programmed into the Propeller-based boards. The list below
indicates which file targets each of the Propeller board variants:
ParPortProp ParPortProp.eeprom
PropIO V1 PropIO.eeprom
PropIO V2 PropIO2.eeprom
Refer to the board documentation of the boards for more information
on how to program the EEPROMs on these boards.

***********************************************************************
This directory ("Binary") is part of the RomWBW System Software
distribution archive. Refer to the ReadMe.txt file in this
directory for more information on the overall contents of the
directory.
When distributed, RomWBW contains a set of pre-built ROM images that
are ready to program onto the EEPROM of any of the Z80/Z180 based
RetroBrew Computers CPU boards. Additionally, any custom built ROM
images will be placed in this directory.
All of the pre-built ROM images are 512KB. This size is compatible
with all of the Z80/Z180 systems. Some systems can accept different
size ROM images. Creating alternative sizes requires a custom ROM
build (see ReadMe.txt in the Source directory).
It is critical that the right ROM Imgae be selected for the target
platform being used. The table below indicates the correct ROM
image to use for each platform:
SBC V1/V2 SBC_std.rom
Zeta V1 ZETA_std.rom
Zeta V2 ZETA2_std.rom
N8 N8_std.rom
Mark IV MK4_std.rom
You will find there is one additional ROM image called
"UNA_std.rom". This ROM image is an UNA-based RomWBW ROM image. As
such, this ROM image can be used on any Z80/Z180 platform supported
by John Coffman's UNA BIOS. Refer to RetroBrew Computers Wiki for
more information on UNA hardware support.
For each of the ROM Images (".rom"), there are corresponding files
with the extensions of ".com" and ".img". The .com variant can be
copied to a functional RomWBW-based system and executed like a
normal application under CP/M or Z-System. This will load the new
ROM on-the-fly. It is an excellent way to test a ROM Image before
actually burning it. Similarly, the .img files can be loaded using
the UNA FAT loader for testing.
All of the standard ROM Images are configured with:
- 512KB ROM Disk
- 512KB RAM Disk
- 38.4Kbps baud serial console
- Auto-discovery of all serial ports
All hard disk type devices (IDE, PPIDE, CF Card, SD Card) will be
automatically assigned two drive letters per device. The drive
letters will refer to the first 2 slices of the device. The ASSIGN
command can be used to display and reassign drives to disk devices
and slices as desired.
Standard ROM Image Notes
------------------------
The standard ROM images will detect and install support for certain
devices and peripherals that are on-board or frequently used with
each platform as documented below. If the device or peripheral is
not detected at boot, the ROM will simply bypass support
appropriately.
SBC:
- Includes support for PPIDE/CF Card(s) connected to on-board
parallel port.
- Includes support for CVDU and VGA3 boards. If detected at
startup, support for video and keyboard is installed
including VT-100/ANSI terminal emulation.
- Auto-detects PropIO or PropIO V2 and installs associated
video, keyboard and SD Card support if present.
- If PropIO, PropIO V2, CVDU, or VGA hardware is detected,
initial console output is determined by JP2. If JP2 is
shorted, console will go to on-board serial port, if JP2
is open, console will go to the detected video and keyboard
ports.
- SBC V1 has a known race condition in the bank switching
circuit which is likely to cause system instability. SBC
V2 does not have this issue.
ZETA/ZETA2:
- Includes support for on-board floppy disk controller and
two attached floppy disks.
- Auto-detects ParPortProp and includes support for it if it
is attached.
- If ParPortProp is installed, initial console output is
determined by JP1. If JP1 is shorted, console will go to
on-board serial port, if JP1 is open, console will go to
ParPortProp video and keyboard ports.
N8:
- Includes support for on-board floppy disk controller and
two attached floppy disks.
- Includes support for on-board TMS9918 video and keyboard
including VT-100/ANSI terminal emulation.
- Includes support for on-board SD Card as hard disk and
assumes a production level N8 board (date code >= 2312).
MK4:
- Includes support for on-board IDE port (CF Card via adapter).
- Includes support for on-board SD Card port.
- Auto-detects PropIO or PropIO V2 and installs associated
video, keyboard and SD Card support if present.
- Includes support for CVDU and VGA3 boards. If detected at
startup, support for video and keyboard is installed
including VT-100/ANSI terminal emulation.

Building a Custom ROM
---------------------
At present, the build environment assumes you are running
a current version of Microsoft Windows (either 32-bit or
64-bit).
If you are using Linux, David Giles has contributed a Linux
makefile that should work for you. Please read the
LinuxBuild.txt file for more information.
All required tools are included in the distribution. You
should not need anything other than what comes as part of
Windows or as part of the distribution.
In summary, the process involves the 4 steps below:
1) Create/update configuration file
2) Update/Add/Delete any files you want incorporated in
the ROM Disk
3) Run the build script (or makefile if you prefer) and
confirm there are no errors.
4) Burn the resultant ROM image and try it.
The process is really very simple. In fact, you can
essentially skip steps 1 & 2 if you want to try simply
building one of the existing configurations.
Each of the 4 steps above is described in more detail
below.
1. Create/Update Configuration File
-----------------------------------
The settings for a build are primarily controled by
a configuration file that is included in the build
process. In order to customize your settings, you
need to modify an existing configuration file or
create your own.
If you look in the Source directory, you will see
a series of files named config_xxxx_yyyy.asm. Each of
them corresponds to one of the standard configurations
listed in the ROMList.txt file.
You have two choices. You can simply modify the existing
configuration file that is closest to your situation, or
you can copy it to a new config_xxxx_yyyy.asm file and modify
that. I recommend that you copy one to your own name so
that you will always have the unmodified standard configuration
files left in place. So, for example, you could just
copy config_ZETA_std.asm to config_ZETA_wayne.asm. You MUST
name your config file as config_xxxx_yyyy.asm. The xxxx's
must match your platform (N8VEM, ZETA, N8, S2I, or S100).
The yyyy's can be whatever you want.
The config files are simply text files with various
settings. Open your target config file with your
favorite text editor and modify the settings as desired.
Unfortunately, I have not yet documented each of the
settings in detail; that will be a separate document
provided in the future. However, there are comments
in the config file that will probably be sufficient
for the most part.
2. Update/Add/Delete ROM Disk Files
-----------------------------------
The files that are included on the ROM Disk of your
ROM are copied from a set of directories during the
build process. This allows you to have complete
flexibility over the files you want included in your
ROM.
If you look at the RomDsk directory, you will see
a variety of subdirectories. These subdirectories
contain the files that will be included in the
ROM disk. The build process will determine
which subdirectories to include files from based
on the following rules:
First, all files from either std_512 or std_1024 will
be incuded depending on on the size of the ROM you
are building. If you are building a 512KB ROM, then
all the files from std_512KB will be included. If you
are building a 1MB ROM, then all the files from std_1024KB
will be included. Essentialy, the files in std_1204KB are
a superset of the ones in std_512KB because there is more
space available for the ROM drive.
Second, all files from the directory that corresponds to
your configuration file will be included. If you build
the "ZETA_std" configuration, all files in cfg_ZETA_std will
be added. Note that these files will be in addition
to the files from the std_XXXKB directory.
If you created your own config file (like config_ZETA_wayne.asm
described above), you MUST create a subdirectory within
the RomDsk directory and populate it with the files
you want added. Normally, you would include the
files from the original standard config. So, if
you created config_ZETA_wayne.asm from config_ZETA_std.asm,
then you would create a subdirectory in RomDsk called
cfg_ZETA_wayne and copy all the files from cfg_ZETA_std to
cfg_ZETA_wayne.
3. Run the Build Process
------------------------
NOTE: The process described here is the more commonly
used build script. If you wish to use a makefile
instead, refer to the comments in the makefile in
the Source directory as an alternative to the
process described here.
The build involves running commands at the command
prompt. From a Command Prompt window, you will need
to change to the high level directory for the build.
Normally, you would be changing to the RomWBW directory
unless you renamed it.
First, you will need to build the components that are
common to all configurations. These components do not
require any configuration. To build these, use the
following commands and ensure that they complete
without error:
BuildZCPR-DJ
BuildApps2
To run the main build and be prompted for required information,
just enter "Build". You will be prompted for the information
described below and the build should run. If an error is
encountered, the build should stop and display an error
in red text.
If you immediately receive the error "the execution of
scripts is disabled on this system", then you will need to
change the PowerShell Execution-Polcy to "RemoteSigned".
To do this, you need to right-click on FixPowerShell.cmd and
choose "Run as Administrator" to make the change. If is
critical that you right-click and use "Run as Administrator"
or the change will not work (you will get an error
indicating "Access to the registry denied" if you fail to
use "Run as Administrator".
The build script will prompt you for the following information
which you will need to provide (don't worry, it is simple):
Platform:
Respond with the name of the platform that you are targeting.
It must be one of N8VEM, ZETA, N8, S2I, or S100.
Configuration:
Respond with the name of the configuration you wish to build.
A list of all available configurations is displayed for your
convenience. For example, if you are building the provided
ZETA_std configuration, just enter "std". If you have created a
custom configuration as described above, you would enter
"wayne".
ROM Size [512|1024]:
Respond with either "512" for a 512KB ROM build or "1024" for a
1MB ROM build. Only the two choices are possible at this time.
It is important that you choose a ROM size that is no larger than
the szie of the ROM you will ultimately be burning. This is
dependant on your hardware.
System [CPM|ZSYS]:
Respond with the type of system you wish to create. If you are
not sure which you want, you should enter "CPM". Refer to the
ReadMe.txt file for more information on the difference between
the two system types.
At this point, the build should run and you will see output related
to the assembler runs and some utility invocations. Just review
the output for any obvioius errors. Normally, all errors will
cause the build to stop immediately and display an error message
in red.
You will see some lines in the output indicating the amount of
space variouis components have taken. You should check these
to make sure you do not see any negative numbers which would
indicate that you have included too many features/drivers for
the available memory space. Here are examples of the lines
showing the space used:
DATA space remaining: 39 bytes.
BOOT LOADER space remaining: 3503 bytes.
CBIOS space remaining: 161 bytes.
DBGMON space remaining: 860 bytes.
ROMX space remaining: 8191 bytes.
BOOT LOADER space remaining: 3503 bytes.
4. Deploy the ROM
-----------------
If you look in the Output directory. You should find the following files:
<config>.rom - binary ROM image to burn to EEPROM
<config>.sys - system image that can be written to the start of a
disk to enable boot from disk functionality
<config>.com - executable version of the system image that can be
copied via xmodem to a running system to test
the build.
The actual ROM image is the file ending in .rom. It should be exactly
512KB or 1MB depending on the ROM size you chose. Simply burn the .rom
image to your ROM and install it in your hardware.
Specifying Build Options on Command Line
----------------------------------------
If you don't want to be prompted for the options to the "Build"
command, you can specify the options right on the command line.
For example:
Build ZETA std 512 CPM
In this case, you will not be prompted. This is useful if you
wish to automate your build process.

================================================================
Floppy Disk Utility (FDU) v5.0 for RetroBrew Computers
Disk IO / Zeta / Dual-IDE / N8
================================================================
Updated September 2, 2017
by Wayne Warthen (wwarthen@gmail.com)
Application to test the hardware functionality of the Floppy
Disk Controller (FDC) on the ECB DISK I/O, DISK I/O V3, ZETA
SBC, Dual IDE w/ Floppy, or N8 board.
The intent is to provide a testbed that allows direct testing
of all possible media types and modes of access. The
application supports read, write, and format by sector, track,
and disk as well as a random read/write test.
The application supports access modes of polling, interrupt,
INT/WAIT, and DRQ/WAIT. At present, it supports 3.5" media at
DD (720KB) and HD (1.44MB) capacities. It also now supports
5.25" media (720KB and 1.2MB) and 8" media (1.11MB) as well.
Additional media will be added when I have time and access to
required hardware. Not all modes are supported on all
platforms and some modes are experimental in all cases.
In many ways this application is merely reinventing the wheel
and performs functionality similar to existing applications,
but I have not seen any other applications for RetroBrew
Computers hardware that provide this range of functionality.
While the application is now almost entirely new code, I would
like to acknowledge that much was derived from the previous
work of Andrew Lynch and Dan Werner. I also want to credit
Sergio Gimenez with testing the 5.25" drive support and Jim
Harre with testing the 8" drive support. Support for Zeta 2
comes from Segey Kiselev. Thanks!
General Usage
-------------
In general, usage is self explanatory. At invocation, you
must select the floppy disk controller (FDC) that you are
using. Subsequently, the main menu allows you to set the
unit, media, and mode to test. These settings MUST match your
situation. Read, write, format, and verify functions are
provided. A sub-menu will allow you to choose sector, track,
disk, or random tests.
The verify function requires a little explanation. It will
take the contents of the current in-memory disk buffer, save
it, and compare it to the selected sectors. So, you must
ensure that the sectors to be verified already have been
written with the same pattern as the buffer contains. I
typically init the buffer to a pattern, write the pattern to
the entire disk, then verify the entire disk.
Another submenu is provided for FDC commands. This sub-menu
allows you to send low-level commands directly to FDC. You
*must* know what you are doing to use this sub-menu. For
example, in order to read a sector using this sub-menu, you
will need to perform specify, seek, sense int, and read
commands specifying correct values (nothing is value checked
in this menu).
Required Hardware/BIOS
----------------------
Of course, the starting point is to have a supported hardware
configuration. The following Z80 / Z180 based CPU boards are
supported:
- SBC V1/2
- Zeta
- Zeta 2
- N8
- Mark IV
You must be using either a RomWBW or UBA based OS version.
You must have one of the following floppy disk controllers:
- Disk IO ECB Board FDC
- Disk IO 3 ECB Board FDC
- Dual-IDE ECB Board FDC
- Zeta SBC onboard FDC
- Zeta 2 SBC onboard FDC
- N8 SBC onboard FDC
Finally, you will need a floppy drive connected via an
appropriate cable:
Disk IO - no twist in cable, drive unit 0/1 must be selected by jumper on drive
DISK IO 3, Zeta, Zeta 2 - cable with twist, unit 0 after twist, unit 1 before twist
DIDE, N8 - cable with twist, unit 0 before twist, unit 1 after twist
Note that FDU does not utilize your systems ROM or OS to
access the floppy system. FDU interacts directly with
hardware. Upon exit, you may need to reset your OS to get the
floppy system back into a state that is expected.
The Disk I/O should be jumpered as follows:
J1: depends on use of interrupt modes (see interrupt modes below)
J2: pins 1-2, & 3-4 jumpered
J3: hardware dependent timing for DMA mode (see DMA modes below)
J4: pins 2-3 jumpered
J5: off
J6: pins 2-3 jumpered
J7: pins 2-3 jumpered
J8: off
J9: off
J10: off
J11: off
J12: off
Note that J1 can be left on even when not using interrupt
modes. As long as the BIOS is OK with it, that is fine. Note
also that J3 is only relevant for DMA modes, but also can be
left in place when using other modes.
The Disk I/O 3 board should be jumpered at the default settings:
JP2: 3-4
JP3: 1-2 for int mode support, otherwise no jumper
JP4: 1-2, 3-4
JP5: 1-2
JP6: 1-2
JP7: 1-2, 3-4
Zeta & Zeta 2 do not have any relevant jumper settings. The
hardwired I/O ranges are assumed in the code.
The Dual-IDE board should be jumpered as follows:
K3 (DT/R or /RD): /RD
P5 (bd ID): 1-2, 3-4 (for $20-$3F port range)
There are no specific N8 jumper settings, but the default
I/O range starting at $80 is assumed in the published code.
Modes of Operation
------------------
You can select the following test modes. Please refer to the
chart that follows to determine which modes should work with
combinations of Z80 CPU speed and media format.
WARNING: In general, only the polling mode is considered fully
reliable. The other modes are basically experimental and
should only be used if you know exactly what you are doing.
Polling: Traditional polled input/output. Works well and very
reliable with robust timeouts and good error recovery. Also,
the slowest performance which precludes it from being used
with 1.44MB floppy on a 4MHz Z80. This is definitely the mode
you want to get working before any others. It does not require
J1 (interrupt enable) on DISK I/O and does not care about the
setting of J3.
Interrupt: Relies on FDC interrupts to determine when a byte
is ready to be read/written. It does *not* implement a
timeout during disk operations. For example, if there is no
disk in the drive, this mode will just hang until a disk is
inserted. This mode *requires* that the host has interrupts
active using interrupt mode 1 (IM1) and interrupts attached to
the FDC controller. The BIOS must be configured to handle
these interrupts safely.
Fast Interrupt: Same as above, but sacrifices additional
reliability for faster operation. This mode will allow a
1.44MB floppy to work with a 4MHz Z80 CPU. However, if any
errors occur (even a transient read error which is not
unusual), this mode will hang. The same FDC interrupt
requirements as above are required.
INT/WAIT: Same as Fast Interrupt, but uses CPU wait instead of
actual interrupt. This mode is exclusive to the original Disk
IO board. It is subject to all the same issues as Fast
Interrupt, but does not need J1 shorted. J3 is irrelevant.
DRQ/WAIT: Uses pseudo DMA to handle input/output. Does not
require that interrupts (J1) be enabled on the DISK I/O.
However, it is subject to all of the same reliability issues
as "Fast Interrupt". This mode is exclusive to the original
Disk IO board. At present, the mode is *not* implemented!
The chart below attempts to describe the combinations that
work for me. By far, the most reliable mode is Polling, but
it requires 8MHz CPU for HD disks.

Tracing
-------
Command/result activity to/from the FDC will be written out if
the trace setting is changed from '00' to '01' in setup.
Additionally, if a command failure is detected on any command,
that specific comand and results are written regardless of the
trace setting.
The format of the line written is:
<OPERATION>: <COMMAND BYTES> --> <RESULT BYTES> [<RESULT>]
For example, this is the output of a normal read operation:
READ: 46 01 00 00 01 02 09 1B FF --> 01 00 00 00 00 02 02 [OK]
Please refer to the i8272 data sheet for information on the
command and result bytes.
Note that the sense interrupt command can return a non-OK
result. This is completely normal in some cases. It is
necessary to "poll" the drive for seek status using sense
interrupt. If there is nothing to report, then the result
will be INVALID COMMAND. Additionally, during a recalibrate
operation, it may be necessary to issue the command twice
because the command will only step the drive 77 times looking
for track 0, but the head may be up to 80 tracks away. In
this case, the first recalibrate fails, but the second should
succeed. Here is what this would look like if trace is turned
on:
RECALIBRATE: 07 01 --> <EMPTY> [OK]
SENSE INTERRUPT: 08 --> 80 [INVALID COMMAND]
...
...
...
SENSE INTERRUPT: 08 --> 80 [INVALID COMMAND]
SENSE INTERRUPT: 08 --> 71 00 [ABNORMAL TERMINATION]
RECALIBRATE: 07 01 --> <EMPTY> [OK]
SENSE INTERRUPT: 08 --> 21 00 [OK]
Another example is when the FDC has just been reset. In this
case, you will see up to 4 disk change errors. Again these
are not a real problem and to be expected.
When tracing is turned off, the application tries to be
intelligent about error reporting. The specific errors from
sense interrupt documented above will be suppressed because
they are not a real problem. All other errors will be
displayed.
Error Handling
--------------
There is no automated error retry logic. This is very
intentional since the point is to expose the controller and
drive activity. Any error detected will result in a prompt to
abort, retry, or continue. Note that some number of errors is
considered normal for this technology. An occasional error
would not necessarily be considered a problem.
CPU Speed
---------
Starting with v5.0, the application adjusts it's timing loops
to the actual system CPU speed by querying the BIOS for the
current CPU speed.
Interleave
----------
The format command now allows the specification of a sector
interleave. It is almost always the case that the optimal
interleave will be 2 (meaning 2:1).
360K Media
----------
The 360K media definition should work well for true 360K
drives. However, it will generally not work with 1.2M
drives. This is because these drives spin at 360RPM instead
of the 300RPM speed of true 360K drives. Additionally, 1.2M
drives are 80 tracks and 360K drives are 40 tracks and, so
far, there is no mechanism in FD to "double step" as a way to
use 40 track media in 80 track drives.
With this said, it is possible to configure some 1.2M 5.25"
drives to automatically spin down to 300RPM based on a density
select signal (DENSEL). This signal is asserted by FD for
360K media, so IF you have configured your drive to react to
this signal correctly, you will be able to use the 360K media
defintion. Most 1.2M 5.25" drives are NOT configured this way
by default. TEAC drives are generally easy to modify and have
been tested by the author and do work in this manner. Note
that this does not address the issue of double stepping above;
you will just be using the first 40 of 80 tracks.

Changes
-------
WW 8/12/2011
Removed call to pulse TC in the FDC initialization after
determining that it periodically caused the FDC to write bad
sectors. I am mystified by this, but definitely found it to
be true. Will revisit at some point -- probably a timing
issue between puslsing TC and whatever happens next.
Non-DMA mode was being set incorrectly for FAST-DMA mode. It
was set for non-DMA even though we were doing DMA. It is
interesting that it worked fine anyway. Fixed it anyway.
DIO_SETMEDIA was not clearing DCD_DSKRDY as it should. Fixed.
WW 8/26/2011: v1.1
Added support for Zeta. Note that INT/WAIT and DRQ/WAIT are
not available on Zeta. Note that Zeta provides the ability to
perform a reset of the FDC independent of a full CPU reset.
This is VERY useful and the FDC is reset anytime a drive reset
is required.
Added INT/WAIT support.
WW 8/28/2011: V1.2
All changes in this version are Zeta specific. Fixed FDC
reset logic and motor status display for Zeta (code from
Sergey).
Modified Zeta disk change display to include it in the command
output line. This makes more sense because a command must be
issued to select the desired drive first. You can use the
SENSE INT command id you want to check the disk change value
at any time. It will also be displayed with any other command
output display.
WW 9/1/2011: V1.3
Added CPUFREQ configuration setting to tune delays based on
cpu speed. The build app is set for 8MHz which also seems to
work well for 4MHz CPU's. Faster CPU speeds will probably
require tuning this setting.
WW 9/5/2011: V1.4
Changed the polling execution routines to utilize CPUFREQ
variable to optimize timeout counter. Most importantly, this
should allow the use of faster CPUs (like 20MHz).
WW 9/19/2011: V1.5
Zeta changes only. Added a call to FDC RESET after any
command failure. This solves an issue where the drive remains
selected if a command error occurs. Also added FDC RESET to
FDC CONTROL menu.
WW 10/7/2011: V2.0
Added support for DIDE. Only supports polling IO and it does
not appear any other modes are possible given the hardware
constraints.
WW 10/13/2011: V2.1
Modified to support N8. N8 is essentially identical to Dual
IDE. The only real change is the IO addresses. In theory, I
should be able to support true DMA on N8 and will work on that.
WW 10/20/2011: v2.2
I had some problems with the results being read were sometimes
missing a byte. Fixed this by taking a more strict approach
to watching the MSR for the exact bits that are expected.
WW 10/22/2011: V2.3
After spending a few days trying to track down an intermittent
data corruption issue with my Dual IDE board, I added a verify
function. This helped me isolate the problem very nicely
(turned out to be interference from the bus monitor).
WW 11/25/2011: V2.4
Preliminary support for DISKIO V3. Basically just assumed
that it operates just like the Zeta. Needs to be verified
with real hardware as soon as I can.
WW 1/9/2012: V2.5
Modified program termination to use CP/M reset call so that a
warm start is done and all drives are logged out. This is
important because media may have been formatted during the
program execution.
WW 2/6/2012: v2.6
Added support for 5.25" drives as tested by Sergio.
WW 4/5/2012: v2.7
Added support for 8" drives as tested by Jim Harre.
WW 4/6/2012: v2.7a
Fixed issue with media selection menu to remove duplicate
entries.
WW 4/8/2012: v2.7b
Corrected the handling of the density select signal.
WW 5/22/2012: v2.8
Added new media definitions (5.25", 320K).
WW 6/1/2012: v2.9
Added interleave capability on format.
WW 6/5/2012: v3.0
Documentation cleanup.
WW 7/1/2012: v3.1
Modified head load time (HLT) for 8" media based on YD-180
spec. Now set to 50ms.
WW 6/17/2013: v3.2
Cleaned up SRT, HLT, and HUT values.
SK 2/10/2015: v3.3
Added Zeta SBC v2 support (Sergey Kiselev)
WW 3/25/2015: v4.0
Renamed from FDTST --> FD
WW 9/2/2017: v5.0
Renamed from FD to FDU.
Added runtime selection of FDC hardware.
Added runtime timing adjustment.

Version 2.8.5, 2017-10-09
https://www.retrobrewcomputers.org/
Updated: 2014-08-30
Version: 2.6.0
RomWBW is a ROM-based implementation of CP/M-80 2.2 and Z-System for
all RetroBrew Computers Z80/Z180 hardware platforms including SBC
1/2, Zeta 1/2, N8, and Mark IV. Virtually all RetroBrew hardware is
supported including floppy, hard disk (IDE, CF Card, SD Card), Video,
and keyboard. VT-100 terminal emulation is built-in.
This is an adaptation of CP/M-80 2.2 and ZSDOS/ZCPR
targeting ROMs for all N8VEM Z80 hardware variations
including SBC, Zeta, N8, and Mark IV.
The RomWBW ROM loads and runs the built-in operating systems directly
from the ROM and includes a selection of standard/useful applications
accessed via a ROM disk drive. A RAM disk drive is also provided
to allow temporary file storage.
NOTE: This is very much a work-in-progress. It is
severely lacking appropriate documentation. I am
happy to answer questions and provide support though.
Pre-built ROM images are included for all platforms. Detailed system
customization is achieved by making simple modifications to a
configuration file and running a build script to generate a custom
ROM image. All source and build tools are included in the
distribution. As distributed, the build scripts run under any modern
32 or 64 bit version of Microsoft Windows.
Acknowledgements
----------------
John Coffman's UNA hardware BIOS is fully supported by RomWBW. In the
case of UNA, a single ROM image (pre-built) is used for all supported
platforms and is customized using a ROM-based setup program. See the
UNA section below for more information.
While I have heavily modified much of the code, I want
to acknowledge that much of this is derived or
copied from the work of others in the N8VEM
project including Andrew Lynch, Dan Werner, Max Scane,
David Giles, John Coffman, and probably many others
I am not clearly aware of (let me know if I omitted
someone!).
Quick Start
-----------
I especially want to credit Douglas Goodall for
contributing code, time, testing, and advice. He created
an entire suite of application programs to enhance the
use of RomWBW. However, he is looking for someone to
continue the maintenance of these applications and
they have become unusable due to changes within
RomWBW. As of RomWBW 2.6, these applications are
no longer provided.
A pre-built ROM image is included for each of the hardware platforms
supported. These ROM images are found in the Binary directory of the
distribution and have a file extension of ".rom". Simply program the
ROM of your system with the appropriate ROM image. Please see the
RomList.txt file in the Binary directory for details on selecting the
correct ROM image for your system and platform specific information.
David Giles has contributed support for building the
ROM under Linux and the CSIO support in the SD Card driver.
Connect a serial terminal or computer with terminal emulation
software to the primary RS-232 port of your CPU board. A null-modem
connection is generally required. Set the line characteristics to
38400 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
Select VT-100 terminal emulation.
Usage Instructions
------------------
Upon power-up, your terminal should display a sign-on banner within 2
seconds followed by hardware inventory and discovery information.
When hardware initialization is completed, a boot loader prompt
allows you to choose a ROM-based operating system, system monitor, or
boot from a disk device.
The distribution includes many pre-built ROM
images in the Output directory. The simplest way of
using this ROM is to simply pick the pre-built ROM
that most closely matches your preferences, burn it,
and use it.
CPU Speed
---------
Refer to the file called RomList.txt for a complete
list of the ROMs that are included and the required
hardware configuration that they support.
RomWBW ROM images support virtually any CPU speed your system is
running. However, there are some hardware-oriented caveats to be
aware of.
The use of high density floppy disks requires a CPU speed of 8 MHz or
greater.
The latest X-Modem file transfer programs (XM.COM, XM-A0.COM, and
XM-A1.COM) require a CPU speeed of 6 MHz or greater to support the
default RomWBW serial port speed of 38400 baud. Older variants of
the X-Modem programs are included (XM5.COM, XM5-A0, and XM5-A1) which
will handle 38400 baud on system running down to 4 MHz.
Upgrading from Previous Versions
--------------------------------
Burn a new ROM image appropriate for your system
and boot under that new ROM. You may want to use
a different ROM chip in case the new version does
not work.
Program a new ROM chip from an image in the new distribution. Install
the new ROM chip and boot your system. At the boot loader "Boot:"
prompt, select either CP/M or Z-System to load the OS from ROM.
If you are using "boot from disk", you will need
to update the OS image on all drives you boot from.
To do this, use SYSCOPY. Something like this
would make sense:
If you have spare rom chips for your system, it is always safest to
keep your existing, work rom chip and program a new one so that you
can return to the old one if the new one does not work properly.
B:SYSCOPY C:=B:ZSYS.SYS
If you use a customized ROM image, it is recommended that you first
try the pre-built ROM image first and then move on to generating a
custom image.
CPU Speed & Baud Rate
---------------------
It is entirely possible to reprogram your system ROM using the FLASH
utility from Will Sowerbutts on your ROM drive (B:). In this case,
you would need to transfer the new ROM image to your system using
X-Modem. Obviously, there is some risk to this approach since any
issues with the programming or ROM image could result in a
non-functional system.
The startup serial port baud rate in all pre-built
RomWBW variants is 38.4Kbps. While this speed is
nice in that it provides great display and file
transfer performance, it does push the limits of
slower hardware. Specifically, XModem v12.5 (the
default XM.COM) on the distribution is unable to
service the serial port fast enough if the CPU is
running at 4MHz. Your options are to 1) use the
old version of XModem (XM5.COM), put a faster CPU
oscillator in your system (6MHz or above), or
3) decrease the baud rate by building a custom
ROM.
If your system has any bootable drives, then update the OS image on
each drive using SYSCOPY. For example, if C: is a bootable drive
with the Z-System OS, you would update the OS image on this drive
with the command:
UNA Variant
-----------
B>SYSCOPY C:=B:ZSYS.SYS
RomWBW will now run under it's native BIOS (HBIOS) or
under UNA BIOS (UBIOS). There are pre-build ROM
images for UNA in the OutputUNA directory.
If you have copies of any of the system utilities on drives other
than the ROM disk drive, you need to copy the latest version of the
programs from the ROM drive (B:) to any drives containing these
programs. For example, if you have a copy of the ASSIGN.COM program
on C:, you would update it from the new ROM using the COPY command:
CP/M vs. ZSystem
----------------
B>COPY B:ASSIGN.COM C:
There are two OS variants included in this distribution
and you may choose which one you prefer to use.
The following programs are maintained with the ROM images and all
copies of these programs should be updated when upgrading to a new
ROM version:
The traditional Digital Research (DRI) CP/M code is the first
choice. The ROM images that DO NOT end in "_z" are built
with the traditional CP/M components from DRI. The Doc
directory contains a manual for CP/M usage (cpm22-m.pdf).
If you are new to the N8VEM systems, I would currently
recommend using the CP/M ROMs to start with simply
because they have gone through more testing and you
are less likely to encounter problems.
- ASSIGN.COM
- FORMAT.COM
- OSLDR.COM
- SYSCOPY.COM
- TALK.COM
- FD.COM
- XM*.COM
The other choice is to use the most popular non-DRI
CP/M "clone" which is generally referred to as
ZSystem. The ROM images with a "_z" suffix are built
using the ZSystem components (specifically ZSDOS 1.2
and ZCPR 1.0). These are intended to be
functionally equivalent to CP/M and should run all
CP/M 2.2 code. They are optimized for the Z80 CPU
(as opposed to 8080 for CP/M) and have some potentially
useful improvements. Please refer to the Doc directory
and look at the files for zsdos and zcpr (zsdos.pdf &
zcpr.doc as well as ZSystem.txt).
UNA Hardware BIOS
-----------------
ZSystem builds contain ZSDOS specific files in the
ROM Disk.
John Coffman has produced a new generation of hardware BIOS called
UNA. In addition to the classic ROM images, RomWBW comes with a
UNA-based image that combines the UNA BIOS with the RomWBW OS
implementations and applications.
Building a Custom ROM
---------------------
UNA is customized dynamically using a ROM based setup routine and the
setup is persisted in the system NVRAM of the RTC chip. This means
that a single UNA-based ROM image can be used on most of the
RetroBrew platforms and is easily customized. UNA also supports FAT
file system access that can be used for in-situ ROM programming and
loading system images.
I strongly suggest you start with burning one of the
pre-built ROMs and making sure that works first. Once
you have gotten past that hurdle, you should consider
building a custom ROM. It is very easy and the
distribution comes with everything that is needed to
run a build on a Windows 32 bit or 64 bit system --
basically Windows XP or above. There is also a
Linux build now available.
While John is likely to enhance UNA over time, there are currently a
few things that UNA does not support:
Creating a custom ROM allows you to customize a lot
of useful stuff like adding support for a DSKY if
you have one.
- Floppy Drives
- Video/Keyboard/Terminal Emulation
- Zeta 1 and N8 Systems
- Some older support boards
Please refer to the Build.txt file in the Doc directory
for detailed instructions for building a custom ROM. If
you are using Linux, also read the LinuxBuild.txt file.
If you wish to try the UNA variant of RomWBW, then just program your
ROM with the ROM image called "UNA_std.rom" in the Binary directory.
This one image is suitable on all of the platforms and hardware UNA
supports.
Formatting Media
----------------
Please refer to the RetroBrew Computers Wiki for more information on
UNA.
<TBD>
CP/M vs. Z-System
-----------------
Creating Bootable Media
There are two OS variants included in this distribution and you may
choose which one you prefer to use. Both variants are now included
in the pre-built ROM images. You will be given the choice to boot
either CP/M or Z-System at startup.
The traditional Digital Research (DRI) CP/M OS is the first choice.
The Doc directory contains a manual for CP/M usage ("CPM
Manual.pdf"). If you are new to the RetroBrew Computer systems, I
would currently recommend using the CP/M variant to start with simply
because it has gone through more testing and you are less likely to
encounter problems.
The other choice is to use the most popular non-DRI CP/M "clone"
which is generally referred to as Z-System. It is intended to be
functionally equivalent to CP/M and should run all CP/M 2.2 code. It
is optimized for the Z80 CPU (as opposed to 8080 for CP/M) and has
some potentially useful improvements. Please refer to "ZSDOS
Manual.pdf" and "ZCPR Manual.pdf" in the Doc directory for more
information on Z-System usage.
ROM Customization
-----------------
The pre-built ROM images are configured for the basic capabilities of
each platform. If you add board(s) to your system, you will need to
customize your ROM image to include support for the added board(s).
Essentially, the creation of a custom ROM is accomplished by updating
a small configuration file, then running a script to compile the
software and generate the custom ROM image. At this time, the build
process runs on Windows 32 or 64 bit versions. All tools (compilers,
assemblers, etc.) are included in the distribution, so it is not
necessary to setup a build environment on your computer.
For those who are interested in more than basic system customization,
note that all source code is included (including the operating
systems).
Note that the ROM customization process does not apply to UNA. All
UNA customization is performed within the ROM setup script.
Complete documentation of the customization process is found in the
ReadMe.txt file in the Source directory.
Source Code Respository
-----------------------
<TBD>
All source code and distributions are maintained on GitHub at
"https://github.com/wwarthen/RomWBW". Code contributions are very
welcome.
Using Slices on Mass Storage Devices
------------------------------------
Distribution Directory Layout
-----------------------------
<TBD>
The RomWBW distribution is a compressed zip archive file organized in
a set of directories. Each of these directories has it's own
ReadMe.txt file describing the contents in detail. In summary, these
directories are:
Managing Console I/O
--------------------
Binary: The final output files of the build process are placed
here. Most importantly, are the ROM images with the
file names ending in ".rom".
<TBD>
Doc: Contains various detailed documentation including the
operating systems, RomWBW architecture, etc.
Notes
Source: Contains the source code files used to build the software
and ROM images.
Tools: Contains the MS Windows programs that are used by the
build process or that may be useful in setting up your
system.

This is the parent directory for all files to
be included in the rom disk when the ROM is built.
When constructing the ROM disk as part of a build,
the build process first grabs all of the "standard"
files for the size of ROM being built and the type
of the OS being used. So, if you are building a
ZSystem, 1MB ROM, all of the files in zsys_1024KB
will be pulled in. If you are building a CP/M
512KB ROM, then all the files in cpm_512KB will
be pulled in.
After adding all of the standard files for the
size of ROM being built, the build process will
add the files from the appropriate configuration
directory. So, if you are building the "zeta"
configuration, all of the files in the cfg_zeta
directory will be added.
Finally, the build process will gather all of the
custom applications created by Douglas in the
Apps directory and add those.
If you are building your own ROM, you will need to
add a new directory of the name cfg_xxx where xxx
is the name of your configuration that matches the
config_xxx.asm file in the Source directory. You
will want to add any specific files you want added
to your ROM build to this directory. Note that the
build will complain if there are no files in your
custom configuration directory, but it is not a
