A plain ST's shifter has 3 bits per # channel, so it keeps each channel's top three bits; an STe's has 4, with # the channel's LOW bit in bit 3 of the register nibble. The ST build (make # atarist) must write the 3-bit truncation -- on every machine, an STe # included, since it never uses STe hardware -- and the STe build (make # ste) the exact 4-bit colour. # # Subject: the PATTERN example -- eight bands, each its own palette, each # palette a gradient whose entry i has i in some of its channels. So every # register sees every channel value 0..15 across the bands, odd ones # included, and the Timer B raster ISR reloads all sixteen registers at # every band. Hatari's video_color trace logs each palette register write # with its pc; the gate collects the application's (TOS lives at $Exxxxx), # and for each register the set of values written must be EXACTLY the set # the machine's encoding of the eight gradients gives. A shifter fed the # wrong encoding fails on the odd values; a missing band or a wrong # palette fails on the set. # # Usage: scripts/verify-atarist-palette.sh [st|megast|ste|megaste ...] # machines to run, default "st ste megaste": a plain ST and a # Mega ST run the ST build, an STe and a Mega STe the STe build # Requires: ./install.sh install emulator:atarist (Hatari, EmuTOS), # PATTERN.PRG in build/atarist/bin and build/ste/bin (make # atarist, make ste) set -uo pipefail repo=$(cd "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/.." && pwd) source "$repo/scripts/lib/joeyEnv.sh" joeyNeed HATARI hatari joeyNeed EMUTOS_IMG emutos machines=${*:-st ste megaste} wall=120 # hard cap on Hatari, whatever happens to this script runVbls=1200 # EmuTOS boot + PATTERN up and banding: ~600 frames work=$(mktemp -d -t joeylib-st-palette.XXXXXX) trap 'rm -rf "$work"' EXIT fails=0 for machine in $machines; do case $machine in st|megast) build=atarist ;; ste|megaste) build=ste ;; *) echo "verify-atarist-palette: unknown machine '$machine' (st, megast, ste or megaste)" >&2; exit 2 ;; esac prog=$repo/build/$build/bin/PATTERN.PRG [ -f "$prog" ] || { echo "verify-atarist-palette: missing $prog (run 'make $build')" >&2; exit 2; } rm -rf "$work/c" mkdir -p "$work/c" cp "$prog" "$work/c/" # The trace is filtered as it is produced: only palette register writes # from the application, not TOS's ($Exxxxx) or Hatari's other colour # bookkeeping. --run-vbls ends the run; timeout is the backstop.
