Every cited block was read again at HEAD: no ref left to review, no file name or hash literal added to a cited file since the pin (--detect-new-files --watch-hashes), refs recaled with their pins. Profiles built by a platform at a fixed commit, or whose bump would leave prose under an older pin, stay where they were.

Frozen snapshot of VBA-M circa 2011, optimized for libretro by Squarepusher.
|
|
|
|
Built-in HLE BIOS (myROM array, src/gba.c:8930) handles all standard SWI
|
|
calls. No external BIOS file needed for most games.
|
|
|
|
BIOS loading gated by HAVE_HLE_BIOS (build/Makefile.common:3) and core option
|
|
vbanext_bios (default: enabled). When enabled, retro_init resolves gba_bios.bin
|
|
in system_dir (libretro/libretro.c:213-218). CPUInit loads via utilLoad(),
|
|
validates size == 0x4000, sets useBios = true (src/gba.c:12943-12950). On
|
|
failure, myROM is memcpy'd as HLE fallback (src/gba.c:12954-12956).
|
|
|
|
With real BIOS, execution starts at 0x00000000 (BIOS entry point). Without,
|
|
jumps to 0x08000000 (ROM entry), skipping boot animation
|
|
(src/gba.c:13134-13151).
|
|
|
|
Upstream VBA-M CPUInit (src/core/gba/gba.cpp:5152-5180) is functionally
|
|
identical. No divergences in BIOS handling.

note: "Optional. HLE replacement handles all standard SWI calls. Real BIOS adds startup logo and may improve edge-case accuracy."
