The goal is to avoid mixing those routines with "character devices"
(acia, vpd, kbd) which aren't block devices and have routines that
have different expectations.
This is a first step to fixing #64.
Yup, that's ultimately why I've just made this whole big zasm
refactoring in the previous commits. To allow for this.
But also, zasm is in much better shape now...
Needed if we want to compile the kernel and zasm from within a SD card.
I didn't go straight for 32-bit because it was significantly more
complex and 24-bit give us 16M. Enough to go on for a while...
A new app to stress test the SD card driver. Also, accompanying this
commit, changes solidifying the SD card driver so that stress tests
actually pass :)
This huge refactoring remove the Seek and Tell routine from blockdev
implementation requirements and change GetC and PutC's API so that they
take an address to read and write (through HL/DE) at each call.
The "PTR" approach in blockdev implementation was very redundant from
device to device and it made more sense to generalize. It's possible
that future device aren't "random access", but we'll be able to add more
device types later.
Another important change in this commit is that the "blockdev handle" is
now opaque. Previously, consumers of the API would happily call routines
directly from one of the 4 offsets. We can't do that any more. This
makes the API more solid for future improvements.
This change forced me to change a lot of things in fs, but overall,
things are now simpler. No more `FS_PTR`: the "device handle" now holds
the active pointer.
Lots, lots of changes, but it also feels a lot cleaner and solid.
Move load/save to blkdev_cmds and add a new "poke" builtin shell cmd
that is the mirror of "peek" and strictly uses stdio (no blkdev
involved).
This allows us to slim the minimal OS size but, more importantly, change
the behavior of "load" so that we don't expect GetC to block until Z is
set. This way, using "load X" with X being larger than the blkdev size
won't block forever.
This also brings our RC2014 minimal kernel below the 1K mark again.
