Both cores ask for the system directory. emucv never reads the answer back, and eightyone serves every ROM from its embedded table and only writes zxpand-eeprom.bin there. The reasons were in their notes, not in the exclusion_note the fileless audit accepts as an answer.

exclusion_note: >
|
|
The system directory is asked for and stored (src/core.cpp:362-366), and the
|
|
helpers that would read it back sit inside comment blocks
|
|
(src/common.cpp:799-937, src/common.cpp:1095-1719): the answer is never used.

notes: |
|
|
Cassette Vision emulator written for libretro by Maxime Marconato. The
|
|
console has no system ROM: each cartridge carries the NEC uPD777 (or
|
|
uPD778) that runs it, so the cartridge dump is the whole machine.
|
|
|
|
Content is opened from its full path (need_fullpath = true,
|
|
src/core.cpp:307) with a plain fopen (src/emu.cpp:138,
|
|
src/fileio.cpp:84-93). The file must be exactly 4064 bytes, the 2032
|
|
valid program addresses as 16-bit words (src/emu.h:16, src/emu.h:223,
|
|
src/emu.cpp:143-153); any other size zeroes program memory and leaves
|
|
the cartridge not inserted. Each word is read as a big-endian 12-bit
|
|
instruction (src/emu.cpp:159-164). The commented MD5 check at
|
|
src/emu.cpp:313-320 is not compiled.
|
|
|
|
The uPD778 character generator (128 patterns of 7 lines) is a static
|
|
table compiled into the core, pattern_778c at src/emu.cpp:168-307, and
|
|
is never read from disk.
|
|
|
|
RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY and GET_SAVE_DIRECTORY are
|
|
queried at init and stored (src/core.cpp:362-366, src/core.cpp:377-381,
|
|
src/common.cpp:1054-1094). Nothing reads them back: the path helpers
|
|
inherited from the Common Source Code Project (get_application_path,
|
|
create_local_path, the ini reader and writer) sit inside comment blocks
|
|
(src/common.cpp:799-937, src/common.cpp:1095-1719). Core options are
|
|
not registered, f_retro_load_settings and f_retro_save_settings are
|
|
empty (src/core.cpp:2562-2895, src/core.cpp:2900-3099). No save RAM
|
|
(src/core.cpp:3437-3450) and no save states (src/core.cpp:3374-3390).
|
|
|
|
The .info declares firmware_count = 0 and matches the code.
