reicast documents the revision Recalbox's reicast.mk pins, far behind master. Compared to HEAD it reported refs nobody could act on; pin_frozen now says why the pin is held.

notes: |
|
|
Dreamcast emulator descended from nullDC. The Linux build is compiled
|
|
for one platform; the default is dreamcast, which sets the ROM prefix
|
|
dc_, a 2 MB boot ROM, a 128 KB flash and NVR_OPTIONAL 0
|
|
(ref: core/types.h:209-217).
|
|
|
|
LoadRomFiles() tries dc_boot.bin, dc_boot.bin.bin, dc_bios.bin and
|
|
dc_bios.bin.bin for the boot ROM, then dc_nvmem.bin, dc_flash_wb.bin,
|
|
dc_flash.bin and dc_flash.bin.bin for the flash
|
|
(ref: core/hw/holly/sb_mem.cpp:30-51). Each candidate is accepted
|
|
when a full chip's worth of bytes can be read from it
|
|
(ref: core/hw/flashrom/flashrom.h:39-49, 61-99). No hash is checked.
|
|
With NVR_OPTIONAL 0 a missing flash fails LoadRomFiles() the same way
|
|
a missing boot ROM does.
|
|
|
|
When LoadRomFiles() fails, or the reios setting is on, the core starts
|
|
its HLE BIOS instead and loads only the flash, if present
|
|
(ref: core/nullDC.cpp:183-200, core/hw/holly/sb_mem.cpp:58-64).
|
|
|
|
Upstream resolves the directory as <data dir>/data/, the data dir
|
|
being $XDG_DATA_HOME/reicast or ~/.local/share/reicast, then each
|
|
$XDG_DATA_DIRS entry plus /reicast (ref: core/stdclass.cpp:83-100,
|
|
core/linux-dist/main.cpp:287-326, 355-379). Recalbox patches
|
|
nullDC.cpp to read and write both files in /recalbox/share/bios/dc/,
|
|
which is the path given below.
