I have recenty discovered that the so-called "rram" section used by gint
to store its VBR space and a couple memory structures gets overwritten
when returning to the main menu. It is thus necessary to get rid of it
and store that data somewhere else.
My current lead is to have it at the start of the static RAM by querying
its address in the TLB. However, the static RAM is very small on SH3
(8k) so the VBR must be made more compact.
This change elaborates the event code translation scheme used on SH3 to
emulate SH4 event codes. It is now used to translate the event codes to
a gint-specific VBR layout that leaves no gaps and thus reduces the size
of the VBR space. The gint_inthandler() method has to be modified for
every new SH3 interrupt to maintain this scheme.
* Removed .pretext sections since the TLB is now entirely dynamic; left
only .text.entry for the start symbol.
* Reworked the main files of src/core to move the INTC to its own driver
and let the kernel handle only VBR space and CPU (now: VBR & CPUOPM).
* Moved src/core/gint.c to src/core/kernel.c and centralized all driver
loops that save or restore context for more robustness. This leaves
the callbacks of cpu_setVBR() (formerly gint_setvbr()) pretty short.
* Coalesced gint_switch_out() and gint_switch_in() into a single
function callback for cpu_setVBR().
* Added an abstraction of interrupt signals as an enumerated value so
that drivers no longer hardcode the IPR and IMR numbers and bits,
sometimes even with isSH3() due to differences in the SH7705.
* Changed the interrupt blocking method in cpu_setVBR() from SR.BL=1 to
SR.IMASK=15 so that TLB misses are still handled. This removes the
need for callback functions to be GMAPPED.
* Moved gint_osmenu() and its utilities to a new file src/core/osmenu.c.
This change removes the RRAM region which was inherited from the fx9860g
memory layout but no longer relevant on fxcg50. This removed one
occurrence of a hardcoded user stack address in the linker script, the
other being the VBR address. But since the VBR only contains
position-independent code that is manually "relocated" at startup, the
linker script needs not actually use its value, so this is not a true
dependency.
gint should now more or less be able to boot up on an fxcg20, except for
the hardcoded VRAM addresses which need to be moved to the fxcg20 system
stack.
This change ports the TLB management system to fx9860g through %003.
This raises the size limit for add-ins to about 500k.
Because SH3 fx9860g does not have ILRAM, the GMAPPED attribute has been
made to generate content to a .gint.mapped section which is sent to the
P1 RAM section historically dubbed "real ram" in which gint's data and
VBR are installed. (Now that I think about it, gint's data should try to
go to normal RAM instead to reduce pressure on this invasion.)
Return-to-menu was also fixed on both platforms by narrowing down the
need for code to remain mapped to the chance of running it with
interrupts disabled. The natural distribution of GMAPPED under this
criterion showed that _gint_setvbr had been left under TLB control;
moving it to the proper RAM area fixed gint switches.
Finally, an omission in the bound checks for mappable TEA addresses (TEA
>= 0x00300000) prevented the appearance of a non-interactible System
ERROR popup when some unmapped addresses are accessed.
This version still does not enable interrupts in timer callbacks,
exposing any application to a crash if a timer underflows while its
callback is not mapped. It is not suitable for any stable application!

This change adds support for three sections .ilram, .xram and .yram,
along with three macros GILRAM, GXRAM and GYRAM, that can be used to
statically load data to on-chip memory.
This change introduces exception handlers that default to a fatal error
with an on-screen description of the exception and some debugging
information.
It also adds the dprint() function as a definitely-needed helper and
removes bootlog_unmapped() by using the exception handler for the fatal
error display. (Also printf() is now required in all gint add-ins; this
is sad, but space is not as much of a constraint as debugging.)
Finally, the exception handler is used to handle an interrupt which is
an exception in practice, the DMA address error. On fx-CG 50, additional
DMA-related information is displayed on the screen. This is left out on
fx-9860G as there is not enough space.
