* delete some obsolete filesKartik Agaram2021-04-041-2/+0
| | | | | They stopped working ever since boot.subx started relying on functions (for the disk driver) implemented in Mu.

| | | | | Now we can start enabling the timer interrupt. It doesn't do anything yet, but keyboard continues to work.

| | | | | | | https://wiki.osdev.org/ATA_PIO_Mode#IDENTIFY_command recommends the straight-and-narrow way, but the LBA bit shouldn't matter in drive-select during IDENTIFY command, according to the ATA 3 spec. And it works in Qemu and bochs. It'll slightly simplify drive parameter management.

* writes to disk now workingKartik K. Agaram2021-03-231-0/+89
| | | | | | Tested by inserting a call into the shell, but we can't leave it in because every test ends up clobbering the disk. So it's now time to think about a testable interface for the disk.

* snapshot: reading secondary drive also worksKartik K. Agaram2021-03-211-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | dd if=/dev/zero of=data.img count=20160 echo '(+ 1 1)' |dd of=data.img conv=notrunc ./translate ex2.mu && qemu-system-i386 -hda disk.img -hdb data.img Compare output with `xxd data.img |head`. This works because primary and secondary drives on the primary bus share the same ports. All we have to do is select the right drive by flipping a bit.
* snapshot: reading from disk without BIOS!!Kartik K. Agaram2021-03-211-0/+214
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Both LBA and CHS coordinates are now working for the primary disk on the primary bus. Failure modes I ran into: - ATA ports are 16-bit values. Using instructions with 8-bit immediates will yield strange results. (I had to debug this twice because I missed poll-ata-primary-bus-primary-drive-regular-status-word the first time around.) Mu's toolchain has been found out here. bootstrap has good errors but doesn't support the instructions I need in boot.subx. The self-hosted phases support the instructions but provide no error-checking. Might be worth starting to add error-checking as I encounter the need. In this case, a vote for validating metadata sizes even if we don't validate that instructions pass in the right metadata sizes. - Can't poll readiness first thing. Maybe we need to always select the drive first. - Reading 8-bit values from a 16-bit port (data port 0x1f0) returns garbage. Reading 32-bit values however works totally fine; go figure. (Maybe it won't work on real hardware?) https://forum.osdev.org/viewtopic.php?t=36415 - Passing in a 0 segment will never return data.

* snapshot: write to disk using BIOSKartik K. Agaram2021-03-151-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | Requires the following commands: dd if=/dev/zero of=data.img count=20160 ./translate life.mu qemu-system-i386 -hda disk.img -hdb data.img Before running Qemu, data.img will contain all 0s. After quitting Qemu, data.img will contain the first 512 bytes of disk.img.
