Subject: VP "Omissions" and problems re SDK...

Answer to this posting from John Wiederhirn on comp.sys.amiga.misc

Regarding message from J.F. Wiederhirn,

There are some valid points, but you overemphasise the points significantly.
The extent to which you dismiss the platform is at odds with the reality of
the graphics and Java performance [for example].

You cannot direct register usage, just as you can't in C. So really you are
saying that you cannot write as efficient code in VP as you can by
hand-crafting native assembler. This is undeniably true and nobody pretended
otherwise. VP does give you, however, a means of writing low-level code,
sacrificing the minimum of efficiency possible with a portable solution. For
ultimate performance, certain operations would need to be written in native
but when you don't do this, you still get near-optimal performance in a
portable manner.

As it happens, they are saved.

The CPU documentation details which native registers are used by the VP
environment. Development of PII tools such as the first level interrupt
handler is directly based on that information. For example,
sys/cii/arm6/cpu.html gives the information about native register usage for
anyone wishing to write an ARM PII.

> >> >The VP in the SDK does not appear to support any mechanism for issuing

To get ultimate performance you would need to abstract at a library level
and develop native MMX-based implementations. So MMX type instructions can
be used now. They have not been abstracted into VP as there is no
sufficiently common model across all processors with MMX-type operations to
get any degree of efficiency. However, as noted in this paragraph already,
an application that can make good use of these instructions on a particular
processor can contain some native tools containing the MMX type instructions
for that particular processor. These tools can be macro-ised and embedded to
get code that looks and behaves like the MMX instructions were fully
supported.

Would you suggest an abstraction that could be used? You obviously have some
good ideas in mind for you to have made such comments.

Cache? Hi!

This is not a VP issue at all. Do any processors have native instruction
modifiers that allow cache usage to be modified on a per instruction basis?
I do not know of any. I would have thought that most of this work will be by
programming a CPU register(s) to control the cache usage (i.e. coarse: turn
off at start - turn on at end for all memory operations on a memory bank.
fine: declare a pointer type to be uncached so that any use of that pointer
is not cached.). Note that in your question 4 there is a reference to
declaring a memory area as cached or not cached, so that is the level of
cache management expected. So, that is clearly not a VP issue. In fact,
intent is uniquely placed to take advantage of an architecture where cache
lines are controlled by individual flags within the pointer. The trouble is,
again, there is no good abstraction for this concept. It is up to individual
platforms and drivers to have these concepts defined and used if required.
And this is all perfectly possible on intent. An example might be that two
memory objects are declared, one returns cached memory, one not cached.
These can even allocate from the same underlying pool, although you are
likely to find that the cache is turned off and on at larger boundaries than
the byte.

The kernel and tool loaders are cache aware in that they call
sys/cii/flushicache during tool loading and code relocation to allow a
platform to clean/flush caches if required. Although this is a CII tool, it
is actually implemented in the PII since cache details may differ on
platforms with apparently similar cores. The tool is directly accessible to
device drivers if developers wish to use it. Where DMA and cache interaction
is an issue, the PII implementer would write tools for the device driver
writer to use to e.g. clean/writeback a DCache.

The whole point of the PII is that there is a fixed set of tools required by
the OS on all platforms plus a "platform specific" optional set that need to
be written to address specific issues on the target platform. This maintains
the portability and encapsulates the "dirty stuff" in one layer. PIIs have
successfully been implemented on many platforms with caches and "take
advantage" of the cache just like any software.

The cacheing issue has already been covered. Any other attributes fall into
the same category. Have you come across write-combined/non-write-combined?
Even if these exist, it wouldn't really change anything. If a need is
identified, functions can easily be added to the PII. It has been
constructed to be extensible.

The primary focus for intent has been on embedded systems where the MMU is
used to set up a fairly simple memory space with mostly 1:1 translation from
physical to virtual space. These mappings are set up at boot time. The
mapping tools you refer to were developed several years ago for the DOS
platform and are not used on any other platform.

This isn't true. JNI is not portably defined across platforms.

I expect here you are commenting on the efficiency of the interrupt handing
model. Not altogether a surprise, if someone's obsessed by these issues.

There is nothing wrong with the interrupt model for 'normal' usage
platforms. Those who are obsessed are at liberty to fit in their own
architecture here. Platforms with little hardware support for devices may
also need to do the same thing to be able to service interrupts at a very
low patency. The intent model does not precluse this at all.

Some things are undeniably true, nonetheless. The 2D graphics functionality
and performance is unparalleled. This is all done in VP. It shows that using
this technology it is possible to develop highly performing portable
software (near optimal, not completely optimal on all architectures). The
JVM and libraries are still be best available. It is true that the
superiority of the technology is greatest in embedded space but to suggest
that it is worthless is not realistic.

Finally, it is worth pointing out that it is impossible to refute bland
allegations that do not give any substance.

Subject: PR: The Amiga RC5 Team effort client programs have been updated

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 2nd 2000

The Amiga RC5 Team effort client programs have been updated


The Amiga RC5 Team effort's continued involvement in the Distributed Net
RC5 challenge (and others) is now, after a long silence in development,
bolstered by updated client programs that are again state of the art.

The new clients support RC5 encryption searching as before, but with
improved speed and features, plus distributed calculation of Optimal Golomb
Rulers or OGR for short. OGR is a mathematical algorithm useful for amongst
others engineering tasks. There are now also separate native clients for
68k (including 68000) AmigaOS, WarpOS and PowerUp. The GUI frontend Myzar
has been updated as well to cater for the new clients.

Apart from the updates, the development team has been extended with several
volunteer members to allow for more timely updates and continued support for
the future.

The Distributed.Net/RC5-64 challenge has searched about 27% of the
keyspace up until now and the rate is still increasing by bounds. The Amiga
team is a top 10 ranked team out of almost ten thousand teams with a total
of over 250,000 participants. Our cooperative effort still accounts for
more than one percent of the daily work being done.

The Amiga RC5 Team effort focuses on bringing exposure to the Amiga and
the community spirit and strives to achieve this by ranking high in
distributed computing projects such as the RC5 challenge, using otherwise
idle computing power only. This effort is also aimed at highlighting
privacy and security issues on the Internet and possibly changing outdated
encryption policies.

We need your help to achieve above goals and show the world the
Amiga is not dead, in spite of a total lack of support from parent
companies over the past, well, millennium.

Everyone is cordially invited to join, with any kind of machine, though

• 'RndWBPix' ist Freeware, genauer gesagt: Mailware.
• Es verbraucht extrem wenig Massen- und Arbeitsspeicher.
• Es hat gerade nur die Features, die tatsächlich benötigt werden und ist deshalb äusserst einfach zu installieren.
• Es verlangsamt nur unwesentlich den StartUp, da es im Pic-Verzeichnis eine Index-Datei anlegt, aus der dann bei jedem Neustart das entsprechende Hintergrundbild ausgewählt wird.
• Ich habe in den Monaten, wo ich 'RndWBPix' benutze, keinen einzigen Absturz gehabt, der auf dieses Proggy hätte zurückgeführt werden können; auch konnte ich keine Unverträglichkeit mit irgendeinem anderen Programm feststellen.

Subject: Here We Go

Hello,

For the last 2 years, thousands of Amiga owners around the world have been
enjoying the monthly editions of The Pulse, distributed free as a
catalogue/magazine.

Well now, due to phenomenal demand from the public and a new publishing house,
The Pulse is being produced as a professional magazine in it's own right.
Available commercially for just £3.00 per issue, The Pulse Magazine promises
to be the hottest, fastest source of information for all things Amiga.

The publishing house behind this new venture is Pulse Publishing UK set up
specifically for the Amiga market.
Although under a new publisher, the editor and writers remain the same with
some new editions.
The general theme of The Pulse has always been well received so that will
remain, and the layout has had a complete overhaul which I think you'll love!

In the past a lot of people have thought of The Pulse as a "Games Magazine".
We have implemented a lot of serious support recently, which will continue to
grow with the addition of 12 new pages!
The principal idea behind The Pulse is to cover ALL the latest news, and ALL
the latest products, so if there's 10 new serious products released that
month, we will cover each and every one so you never miss out on anything.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PULSE

52 pages packed with more exclusive reveiws than any other Amiga magazine.
Special features on Amiga related topics
Tutorials on serious software and hardware
Hints, tips and solutions
Art Gallery
Letters Page
and so much more....

Within the next seven days we will be announcing our brand new web page were
you will be able to subscribe to the magazine - wish I promise you'll want to
when you see what we've got lined up!

I would like to take this opportunity to say thankyou to everyone who's
extended their support and tell you that  the wait is nearly over as the new
edition although a little late is nearly here!  We should perhaps explain
that the delay although not intentional is certainly going to be worth it as
we've been dedicating these past few weeks to arranging some brilliant deals
for our readers including securing exclusive review rights for the most
eagerly awaited games and utilities, and  negotiating money-off vouchers from
the top Amiga companies to be incuded in every single issue of The Pulse from
now on.  These vouchers more than cover the cost of your issue and can be
redeemed against Amiga software and hardware!
As an example, the issue we are working on now (issue 14) has a voucher to
receive £5.00 off the brand new Foundation Gold .

If like most Amiga users these days, you use your magazine as a guide to your
Amiga purchases, you'll be glad to know that The Pulse Magazine has a
comprehensive range of advertisers covering 12 pages, including software and
hardware.  We also have a whole page dedicated to our readers classified
adverts which they can submit to the mag completely free of charge.  This
month, there's some processors going cheap, 16bit soundcards and tons of
other bargain which you should really check out!
Among the respected Amiga companies advertising in The Pulse Magazine so far
are:-

Eyetech Group Ltd.
Blittersoft
Epic
Fore-matt Home Computing
Abel Gratis
Digital Dreams
Gold Crest PD
and much more

"I have been reading the Pulse for a good few months now and it
has become so that if the post is late, I feel like I am missing
something. Steve and the crew have done a great job of keeping
the community going through the dark times and now that
things are improving in leaps and bounds, I am delighted to see
that the Pulse will be there keeping me informed and its
finger on the....well, on the Pulse."
