*** Power 64 RAM Snapshot File (C64 emulator on Apple Power Macintosh)
|
||||
*** Document revision: 1.2

||||

|
||||
These files, similar in nature to PC64's .C64 files, are a complete
|
||||
memory dump of the 64K RAM, color RAM, and all I/O ports and CPU registers.
|
||||
Presently, this format is supported by the Power64 emulator and may be
|
||||
added to future versions of the VICE emulator. The file size is 69888
|
||||
bytes.
|
||||
|
||||
The format for RAM Snapshots was adapted from a suggestion by Jouko Valta
|
||||
for the Vice Emulator on Unix systems.
|
||||
|
||||
* Note: All multi-byte values are stored in big-endian format (high/low)
|
||||
rather than in the little-endian format (low/high) used by the C64, since
|
||||
the Macintosh stores values this way.
|
||||
|
||||
No sample memory dump is available.
|
||||
|
||||
Byte: $00000-00005: Magic Header (at present $43, $42, $4D, $64, $00, $00)
|
||||
or "CBM",$64,$00,$00
|
||||
00006-00007: Reserved (should be $00, $00)
|
||||
00008-00009: Version major and minor ($01, $00, or 1.0)
|
||||
0000A: Emulator snapshot ID (Power64 is $2F)
|
||||
0000B: Snapshot type (presently $00)
|
||||
0000C-0000D: Offset in bytes (high/low), to RAM image in snapshot.
|
||||
The header size is presently 256 bytes, so the values
|
||||
are $01, $00.
|
||||
0000E-0000F: RAM image size (in Kbytes, presently $00, $40, or 64
|
||||
Kbytes)
|
||||
00010-00011: REU RAM image size (in Kbytes, presently $00, $00)
|
||||
00012-0001F: Reserved (should be $00, $00)
|
||||
00020-00025: Configuration bit masks (presently all $00)
|
||||
00026: I/O RAM size (Power64 value $01)
|
||||
Bit 0: I/O data available (0 = no)
|
||||
1 and 2: Video Display Controller RAM
|
||||
00 = none
|
||||
01 = 16 Kb
|
||||
10 = 64 Kb
|
||||
11 = 32 Kb)
|
||||
00027: CPU's available (Power64 value $01)
|
||||
Bit 0: 6502
|
||||
1: Z80
|
||||
2: REC
|
||||
00028-00029: 6502 program counter (high/low)
|
||||
0002A-0002C: A, X and Y CPU registers
|
||||
0002D: 6502 flags register
|
||||
0002E: 6502 stack pointer (SP)
|
||||
0002F: 6502 I/O port
|
||||
00030-0003F: Z80 registers (not used yet, should be $00)
|
||||
00040-0004F: REC registers (not used yet, should be $00)
|
||||
00050: C64 kernal ID byte (not used yet)
|
||||
00051: Kernal patch ID for fastloaders, etc. (not used yet)
|
||||
00052-00053: Kernal patch version ID (not used)
|
||||
00054-0007F: Kernal version information (not used yet)
|
||||
00080-000FF: Miscellaneous info on peripherals (not used yet)
|
||||
00100-100FF: 64Kb RAM area (size depends on value in 0000E-0000F)
|
||||
10100-110FF: Contents of the C64 I/O area
