CPU 仿真并锁定到特定时钟速度

Question

如果您阅读过我的其他问题，您就会知道我这个周末已经组装了 6502 CPU 模拟器作为编程练习。

CPU 模拟器已经基本完成，从我有限的测试来看似乎相当准确，但是它运行得非常快，我想将其降低到机器的实际时钟速度。

我当前的测试循环是这样的：

    // Just loop infinitely.
    while (1 == 1)
    {                
        CPU.ClockCyclesBeforeNext--;

        if (CPU.ClockCyclesBeforeNext <= 0)
        {
            // Find out how many clock cycles this instruction will take
            CPU.ClockCyclesBeforeNext = CPU.OpcodeMapper.Map[CPU.Memory[CPU.PC]].CpuCycles;

            // Run the instruction
            CPU.ExecuteInstruction(CPU.Memory[CPU.PC]);

            // Debugging Info
            CPU.DumpDebug();
            Console.WriteLine(CPU.OpcodeMapper.Map[CPU.Memory[CPU.PC]].ArgumentLength);

            // Move to next instruction
            CPU.PC += 1 + CPU.OpcodeMapper.Map[CPU.Memory[CPU.PC]].ArgumentLength;                                        
        }
    }

如您所知，每个操作码都需要一定的时间才能完成，因此在对 CPU 周期时钟进行倒计时之前，我不会运行下一条指令。 这提供了操作码之间的正确计时，只是整个过程运行得很快。

目标 CPU 速度是 1.79mhz，但是我希望任何时钟问题的解决方案都能将速度保持在 1.79mhz，即使我增加了复杂性，这样我就不必调整它。

有任何想法吗？

Answer 1

许多年前，我编写了一个 Z80 模拟器，为了实现周期精确执行，我将时钟速率划分为许多小块，并让核心执行那么多时钟周期。 就我而言，我将其与我正在模拟的游戏系统的帧速率联系起来。 每个操作码都知道执行需要多少个周期，并且核心将继续运行操作码，直到执行了指定的周期数。 我有一个外部运行循环，它将运行 cpu 核心，并运行模拟系统的其他部分，然后休眠直到下一次迭代的开始时间。

编辑：添加运行循环的示例。

int execute_run_loop( int cycles )
{
    int n = 0;
    while( n < cycles )
    {
        /* Returns number of cycles executed */
        n += execute_next_opcode();
    }

    return n;
}

希望这可以帮助。

Answer 2

查看原始的 Quicktime 文档以获取灵感。

它是很久以前写的，当时显示视频意味着只需以足够高的速度交换静止帧，但苹果公司的人决定他们需要一个完整的时间管理框架。 该设计乍一看似乎过度设计，但它让它们能够处理截然不同的速度要求并保持它们紧密同步。

你很幸运，6502 具有确定性的时间行为，每条指令所需的确切时间都有详细记录； 但它不是恒定的。 有些指令需要 2 个周期，其他则需要 3 个周期。就像 QuickTime 中的帧一样，视频没有“每秒帧数”参数，每个帧都会告诉它要在屏幕上显示多长时间。

由于现代 CPU 的不确定性非常大，而且多任务操作系统甚至可能会冻结几毫秒（虚拟内存！），因此如果您落后于计划，或者如果您可以小睡几微秒，则应该留意。

Answer 3

正如 jfk 所说，最常见的方法是将 CPU 速度与（模拟）视频输出的垂直刷新联系起来。

选择每个视频帧运行的周期数。 这通常是特定于机器的，但您可以通过以下方式计算它：

cycles = clock speed in Hz / required frames-per-second

然后您还可以进行睡眠，直到视频更新完成，此时您开始下一个 CPU 模拟周期。

如果您正在模拟某些特定的东西，那么您只需要查找 fps 速率和处理器速度即可获得大致正确的结果。

编辑：如果您没有任何外部时序要求，那么模拟器尽可能快地运行是正常的。 有时这是预期的效果，有时则不是:)

Answer 4

我会使用时钟周期来计算时间，然后让它们睡眠时间差。 当然，要做到这一点，你需要一个高分辨率的时钟。 他们这样做会在旋转循环中使 CPU 达到峰值。

Answer 5

是的，正如之前所说，大多数时候您不需要 CPU 模拟器来以与真实设备相同的速度模拟指令。 用户感知的是计算的输出（即音频和视频输出），因此您只需与此类输出同步，这并不意味着您必须具有精确的 CPU 模拟速度。

换句话说，如果视频输入的帧速率是 50Hz，那么让 CPU 模拟器尽可能快地运行来绘制屏幕，​​但一定要以正确的速率 (50Hz) 输出屏幕帧。 从外部角度来看，您的模拟器正在以正确的速度进行模拟。

在像 Windows 或 Linux 这样的多任务操作系统上，即使在执行时间上也试图做到周期精确是没有意义的，因为模拟器指令时间（对于老式 80 年代的 CPU 通常为 1uS）和现代操作系统的调度时隙是可比的。

尝试以 50Hz 的速率输出内容是一项简单得多的任务，您可以在任何现代机器上做得很好

Answer 6

如果实现了音频仿真，并且音频输出与系统/CPU 时钟相关，则可以使用另一种选择。 我尤其知道 8 位 Apple ][ 计算机就是这种情况。

通常声音是在固定大小（固定时间）的缓冲区中生成的，因此这些缓冲区的操作（数据生成等）可以通过同步原语与 CPU 吞吐量相关联。

Answer 7

我正在制作一些更通用的基于用例的东西，例如将时间转换为估计指令量的能力，反之亦然。
