Three interrupt delivery bugs fixed that were blocking shell progression:
1. RFE after handler exit: The exception handler's normal exit path
(jmpbuf longjmp at 0xBFC10944) does not execute RFE. In our model
the handler returns to psx_check_interrupts, not to the WaitEvent
caller. Without RFE, IEc stays 0 forever after the first interrupt.
Fix: apply RFE in psx_check_interrupts if IEc is still 0 after the
handler returns.
2. GPR save/restore around handler dispatch: The handler's jmpbuf exit
restores callee-saved registers from the kernel jmpbuf (intended for
a non-local jump to WaitEvent's caller). In our model this corrupts
the interrupted code's registers. Fix: save all GPRs before handler
dispatch and restore them after, matching real hardware where the
interrupted code's registers are preserved via TCB save/restore.
3. VBlank tick gated on !in_exception: The handler runs thousands of
block leaders, each calling psx_check_interrupts. Without gating,
dispatch_count advances inside the handler, firing new VBlanks that
stack up and starve the main code. Fix: only increment dispatch_count
and fire VBlank/timer ticks when not in exception handling.
4. DMA IRQ edge-triggered: update_master_irq() was level-triggered,
re-asserting i_stat bit 3 on every call while master_flag=1. Combined
with no BIOS callback to acknowledge DMA IRQs, this caused an
interrupt storm. Fix: edge-detect master_flag 0->1 transition, and
suppress DMA completion IRQs entirely since transfers are synchronous.
Also adds GPU debug diagnostics: GP0 command counters (nop/fill/draw/
env/copy), draw area/offset in gpu_state, vram_peek debug command.
