CPU-Control 1.12 (18-Apr-95)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-Control is a CPU-like utility for Kickstart/WB 2.0 including a GUI.
The main difference to other tools of this kind is, that CPU-Control
recognizes external changes of any of its parameters. Because of this
special feature it needs some CPU-Time (not much), but in iconified state
it needs no processor time at all. Additionally CPU-Control allows moving
VBR (VectorBaseRegister) to Fast-RAM, which significantly speeds up all
Traps/Interupts. Many CLI Options have been included to allow usage in
scripts, so it's a good idea to put "CPU-Control vbr nw" in your Startup-
Sequence.

History
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.0 - initial release: 8-May-92
1.1 - release date: 13-May-92
- many serious bugs (hopefully) fixed
- overall code optimisation
- added 68020/851 and 68030 MMU support
- added "ICONIFY" option
1.2 - release date: 14-May-92
- added CHECK option to test for a specified processor
Example: CPU-Control check 68030
will produce an ErrorCode 5 if not found
CHECK always activates the NOWIN option
- cleaned-up menu layout
1.3 - release date: 16-May-92
- added MOVESSP option to allow moving the Supervisor
Stackpointer to fast memory
- CLI mode (especially CHECK) can now be used on 68000
- minor code cleanup
1.3a - release date: 7-Jul-92
- Cache-Inhibit for ChipRAM is no longer set automatically
because every well-behaving hardware (including A3000
and A2620/30 Turboboards) does this already.
In addition operation in ChipRAM is slightly faster now,
because the hardwired solution effects Datacache only.
In case of trouble the CCI option (CLI only!) could be
used to enable Cache-Inhibit. Of course this option is
only useful if used together with the MMU option.
1.4 - release date: 16-Jul-92
- implemented support for PC/AT-Bridgeboards
Cache-Inhibit for Dual-Ported-RAM will be set as soon
as the MMU becomes active (SafeKick or FastROM)
- implemented SystemInfo (Menu or CLI-Option "SI")
The short delay when measuring the MIPS performance is
quite normal, so don't worry about it!
- more Menu-Shortcuts available (just have a look...)
- minor code cleanup
1.5 release date: 21-Jul-92
- CPU-Control is Font-Sensitive now!
- replaced "CPU: ..... FPU: ....." text by "System Info"
gadget
1.5a release date: 17-Sep-92
- Oh dear... Cache-Inhibit for Bridgeboards did not work!
1.6 release date: 27-Oct-92
- FastROM and SafeKick works with 68040 now (hopefully!).
Address-Space is currently truncated to 64MB in order
to keep translation tables short and fast.
- improved MMU-switching routines
1.7 release date: 13-Mar-93
- GUI is now fully OS-3.x compatible (Menus, BusyPointer)
- AA Chipset is recognized now
- minor code cleanup
1.8 release date: 4-Apr-93
- 040 CopyBack switching behaves exactly like the CPU
command now.
- fixed MMU routines for A4000/40.
active MMU (after SetPatch) will be displayed as ALIEN,
inactive MMU will be displayed as PRIVATE.
MMU usage is forbidden, and would be useless anyway.
1.9 release date: 25-May-93
- overall code cleanup
- added MFLOPS calculation to System Info
- display method for active Kickstart version is 100%
clean now
BTW: MIPS and MFLOPS are no absolute values, but they
can be helpful to compare systems using the SAME
test software.
1.10 release date: 12-Mar-95
- fixed small bug in MIPS/MFLOPS display routines
- FastROM and SafeKick support for 68040 removed
- removed internal ColdReboot patch, replaced by external
RebootPatch program, which works perfectly with all MMUs
- added external PatchExcept program to fix a serious bug
in Kickstarts guru routines
- includes source files for RebootPatch and PatchExcept
1.11 release date: 17-Apr-95
- some more code cleanup
- included PCInhibit030 to switch CacheInhibit for C=
A2x86 Bridgeboards. The MMU must be already active.
This should work with MMU tables from CPU-Control,
CPU (FastROM), SoftBoot (A3000) and A3000 Kickstart.
Simply call this command BEFORE BindDrivers.
1.12 release date: 18-Apr-95
- improved Bridgeboard recognition, so PCInhibit030
is not needed if the MMU has been enabled by
CPU-Control.
ATTENTION: If the main progamm file doesn't have a length
of 7976 Bytes it is DAMAGED!
