REU detection problem
Hi all, I have a small problem with my REU-detectioncode.
It correctly detects REUs on all machines I have tested it on but if the REU is 1024kb or larger it reports 255 banks (16mb) in $fe instead of the correct number of banks. 128 -> 512 kb works just fine.
Can anybody see were I've got it wrong?
;----------------------------------------------------------
; Determines if we have a REU present or not
;----------------------------------------------------------
; Note: interrupt-flag must be set (sei)
; this trashes the content of the REU (transfers $0000 - $00ff to each bank of the REU)
;----------------------------------------------------------
; The MSB of $ff will be set if REU is present
; $ff == %1xxxxxxx - REU present
; $ff == %0xxxxxxx - REU not present
; $fe will contain the 0-based number of accessible banks
;----------------------------------------------------------

$ff is not initialized? |

where? (however, that doesnt seem to be the problem)
you gotta explain how the loop at the bottom is supposed to work, i somehow dont see it working at all :) |

This code will always ensure that $ff contains a negative or a positive value in all outcomes. And you are right, that isn't the problem.
All REUs is detected to the level that it finds if a REU is plugged in or not so the problem is somewhere after the first rts.

i think i got the idea of the last loop now... you are writing $ff, $fe etc into increasing bank numbers, then because of the wraparound after $100 iterations the first bank will contain the number of total banks.
i vaguely remember a problem with this... you might check the vice source. ie in some implementations of the REU (hardware i mean) the wraparound doesnt work that way, you will get "open" banks instead |

Correct, will check Vice sources tonight in order to understand how to solve the problem or just determine that I support up to 512kb with my detection code...
Thanks! |

did a quick check, apparently the sdram wraparound is indeed the same for all sizes >=1024. so to tell larger sizes apart you need to use a different way. which is a good idea in any case - because this is something that is completely undefined. |

Yes, the wrapping as a bit strange as groepaz notes.
This is the detection code i use in Superfluid V0.6:(returns size >> 16 in Acc)

;* DESCRIPTION
;* Detect REU presence and size (type)
;*
;* We do this by checking the start of each power of 2 bank for the
;* presence of ram (pattern $55 and $aa), and then verifying that the
;* start of bank 0 wasn't affected (i.e aliasing).

Just a side note: SuperFluid 0.6 detection code work with 16mb reu in Ultimate64 with 1.10 firmware. Just make sure to reboot U64 after mounting cartridge. |

Hi...
Here is my detection routine, written in KickAss.
Tested on VICE 2.4 and 1541U2+ :)
You can of course skip the backup and restore parts if you want...
.const REUStatus = $df00
.const REUCommand = $df01
.const REUC64 = $df02
.const REUREU = $df04
.const REUTransLen = $df07

.const REUAddrMode = $df0a
.const REUStatusFault = 32 // Error during compare
.const REUCMDExecute = 128+16 // Start transfer/compare/swap without waiting for write to $ff00
.const REUCMDExecuteFF00 = 128 // Start transfer/compare/swap after write access to $ff00 (for using RAM below I/O area $d000-$dfff)
.const REUCMDAutoload = 32 // Restore address and length registers after execute
.const REUCMDTransToREU = 0 // Bit 0-1 : 00 = transfer C64 -> REU
.const REUCMDTransToC64 = 1 // Bit 0-1 : 01 = transfer REU -> C64
.const REUCMDSwap = 2 // Bit 0-1 : 10 = swap C64 <-> REU
.const REUCMDCompare = 3 // Bit 0-1 : 11 = compare C64 - REU
.const REUAddrFixedC64 = 128 // Bit 7 : C64 ADDRESS CONTROL (1 = fix C64 address)
.const REUAddrFixedREU = 64 // Bit 6 : REU ADDRESS CONTROL (1 = fix REU address)
