[C128] Irq question ...
How can i make this code run on a C128 exactily at same addressess?
(I hope this isn't too much off-topic here...)

Because it look a really stupid thing to me...
I take it as last chance. Is a useless waste of cycles.
If i want to use ram under basic i need to set a code in the ram accessible by defalut, then set $FF00 and jmp to irq code.
I'm trying to understand if there is a way to "reconfigure" the bank activated by $00 in $FF00 to keep only kernal ON...
But is just my guess... i don't know if there is a way to do it... |

There isn't.
If the number of cycles is a problem for you, why not disable the ROM altogether and have your own interrupt handler called directly via $fffe/f? Would both consume a minimal amount of cycles and not have the BASIC ROM problem. |

Besides, having interrupt handlers below $4000 (or at $c000+) is a good idea because of the two RAM banks. You really want to enable a common area (configurable to up to 16K) and put your interrupt handlers there, otherwise having interrupt handlers in one bank and the code being interrupted in another could be a bit of a nuisance. |

yeah its a flaw in the KERNAL sadly.. it should have been something like
ff1c AD 00 FF LDA $FF00 - A:00 X:17 Y:00 SP:14 - IZ
ff1f 48 PHA - A:00 X:17 Y:00 SP:14 - IZ
ff20 8D 00 FF STA $FF04 - A:00 X:17 Y:00 SP:13 - IZ
but then it has issues as well. Another flaw of this is it assumes the Stack is at $100 which isn't always true either.. and can lead to fun "why did the monitor just start" scratching head sessions - the lack of chis on x128 can really hurt sometimes.
I remember Bil Herd saying that post release he ask Fred why he didn't use the MMU, and his response was "Because there are no Kernal only registers", to which Bil responded "Why didn't you tell me.."
The handy thing with the Pre Configs is they don't trash a register, so you could put your IRQ at $3FFD
0:3FFD sta FF02 <- disable BASIC LO, HI,EDITOR,MONITOR
0:4000 pha
0:4001 tax
.....
You need to set up the PreConfigs to be what you want first, but it only adds 4 clocks |

WTF they choosed to force ROMS ON anyway!?!
If i disable the roms and computer crashes ... are just my businness!
If i want to setup a IRQ under ROMS the only way is to disable kernal... or put a "trampoline" in a ram area...
If i need kernal in other parts of my code, outside the irq, the only solution is to have a trampoline somewhere...

well trampoline it, you only waste some bytes in ram, you can even enter the rom irq faster by bypassing some of it. |

If you know its not going to be used, you can set up the JMPFAR routine $02/$03/$04 bank lo hi and just point the IRQ vector to x:02e3 |

Just have a two-fold approach.
- KERNAL disabled would go to your actual interrupt handler directly via $fffe/f.
- KERNAL enabled would go to the ROM interrupt handler, then to the trampoline via $0314/5, which would then go to the actual interrupt handler.
This way, you're only using the cycles you really need to use while allowing both KERNAL on and off. |

But yes, welcome to the 128, it has ROM EVERYWHERE, however you can switch out the CHARGEN EVERYWHERE as well which is nice. |

This is exactly what I do in EotB and my oen handler mimics the kernel so that timing is the same (not c128 related) |
