Added quite some info on the stuff in 'cfg' and 'obj'. Apple2enh needs to be adjusted too for sure, but check the result of the nightly build first.

<sect>ProDOS 8 system programs<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ProDOS 8 system programs are always loaded to the start adress $2000.
|
||||||
|
For cc65 programs this means that the 6 KB from $800 to $2000 are
|
||||||
|
by default unused. There are however several options to make use of that memory
|
||||||
|
range.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>LOADER.SYSTEM<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The easiest (and for really large programs in fact the only) way to have a cc65
|
||||||
|
program use the memory from $800 to $2000 is to link it as binary
|
||||||
|
(as opposed to system) program using the linker configuration
|
||||||
|
<htmlurl url="apple2-4.html#ss4.4" name="apple2-loader.cfg"> with start address
|
||||||
|
$800 and load it with <bf/LOADER.SYSTEM - an Apple ][
|
||||||
|
ProDOS 8 loader for cc65 programs/. The program then works like a system program
|
||||||
|
(i.e. quits to the ProDOS dispatcher).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Using LOADER.SYSTEM is as simple as copying it to the ProDOS 8 directory of the
|
||||||
|
program to load under name <program>.SYSTEM as a system program. For
|
||||||
|
example the program <tt/MYPROG/ is loaded by <tt/MYPROG.SYSTEM/.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>Heap<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the cc65 program can be successully linked as system program using the linker
|
||||||
|
configuration <htmlurl url="apple2-4.html#ss4.3" name="apple2-system.cfg"> but
|
||||||
|
uses the heap either explicitly or implicitly (i.e. by loading a driver) then
|
||||||
|
the memory from $800 to $2000 can be added to the heap by calling
|
||||||
|
<tt/_heapadd ((void *) 0x0800, 0x1800);/ at the beginning of <tt/main()/.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<sect1>ProDOS 8 I/O buffers<p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ProDOS 8 requires for every open file a page-aligned 1 KB I/O buffer. By default
|
||||||
|
these buffers are allocated by the cc65 runtime system on the heap using
|
||||||
|
<tt/posix_memalign()/. While in general this is the best solution it means quite
|
||||||
|
some overhead for (especially rather small) cc65 programs which do open files
|
||||||
|
but do not make use of the heap otherwise.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The apple2 package comes with the alternative ProDOS 8 I/O buffer allocation
|
||||||
|
module <tt/apple2-iobuf-0800.o/ which uses the memory between $800 and
|
||||||
|
the program start address for the 1 KB I/O buffers. For system programs (with
|
||||||
|
start address $2000) this results in up to 6 I/O buffers and thus up to 6
|
||||||
|
concurrently open files.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While using <tt/_heapadd()/ as described in the section above together with the
|
||||||
|
default I/O buffer allocation basically yields the same placement of I/O buffers
|
||||||
|
the primary benefit of <tt/apple2-iobuf-0800.o/ is a reduction in code size -
|
||||||
|
and thus program file size - of more than 1400 bytes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Using <tt/apple2-iobuf-0800.o/ is as simple as placing it on the linker command
|
||||||
|
line like this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<tscreen><verb>
