            The "random behavior" is your program using fgets to read into memory pointed to by uint8_t *code.

            Ask yourself, "What does code point to?"

            Realize that the answer is "I don't know, because I didn't set it to anything."

            And THAT is the "random" behavior. Whatever value was in the stack memory or register that the compiler assigned to code is what was being used. It is "random" as in you have no idea what that value is going to be.

            How to unit test outside of main.rs?
            Asked 2020-Nov-12 at 07:12

            I'm new to Rust, I have a file structure like this

            • chip8.rs

            • chip8_gui.rs

            I added a unit test in main.rs and a unit test in chip8.rs (a simple assert_eq!(2,2)) but it only finds the test in main.rs. Why? I am trying to test a private function of chip8.rs.

            Instruction 0x3000 and jump instruction repeating on almost all games on CHIP-8
            Asked 2020-Jul-14 at 16:04

            I am new to emulation and figured writing a CHIP-8 interpreter would get be started. However, I am facing an issue. When running a game, like Brix for example, it draws the game no problem (the paddle, etc.) but, after it is done, it just gets stuck in a loop of 0x3000 and after that, a jump instruction that jumps back to the 0x3000. It is clear that 0x3000 is false and that is why it is looping, but I can't figure why that is for the life of me.

            Screenshot of the game and the Chrome devtools console (the game is Brix, taken from here): https://i.stack.imgur.com/a0wNM.png

            In that screenshot, in the console, you can see the 0x3000 is failing and going to a jump, and that jump goes back to 0x3000, and the cycle repeats. This happens with most, if not all games. I suspect is has something to do with the delay timer, since 0x3000 is checking for v0 === 0, but it fails, and goes to the jump instruction.

            Here is my main CHIP-8 class:

            It appears that your issue is that you are incrementing the PC again after assigning it in the JMP instruction (0x1nnn) (You can see the discrepancy in your debug output). So after the current executeOpcode cycle, the execution returns to this.step and hits this line:

            A variable is reverting to a previous value after being assigned to with an assignment statement
            Asked 2020-Jul-03 at 03:01

            I am writing a simple chip8 emulator.

            I have a value called programCounter(PC).

            The problem is that once I return from the Instruction1( which modifies PC), PC returns to the value it was before being modified by the method.

            Example

            Before Instruction1 assigns to PC, the value of PC is 203.

            After Instruction1, the value of PC is (0x0NNN & 0xFFFE).

            By programCounter++, it return to 203 than increments.

            You have two or more cpp files. Each forms a compilation unit. (A .h you include becomes part of each compilation unit separately; the notion of compilation unit applies after preprocessing is done.)

            Static global variables are not linked between compilation units, they're private to the unit they're defined in.
            static uint16_t programCounter is thus local to each cpp file.

            As a general rule:

            1. Stop using global variables, especially mutable ones. Pass shared state explicitly. Use a class or struct.
            2. Especially stop using mutable static variables in header files. That is insane.
            3. Check the address of data when things don't make sense.

            Be aware that static has a different meaning within classes and functions that it does at global scope. Regular globals already have static storage class (same as static variables), but with global cross-file visibility.

            increment I in chip-8 opcode FX65
            Asked 2020-Feb-27 at 22:20

            While building a chip-8 emulator, I ran into the problem where the 2 main sources of chip-8 information seem to differ which has implications for the whole chip-8 interpreter.

            On the one side we have wikipedia, which under the opcode FX65 tells us that

            "Fills V0 to VX (including VX) with values from memory starting at address I. I is increased by 1 for each value written."

            where "I is increased by 1 for each value written." is the important part.

            There doesn't seem to be a definitive answer, as there doesn't seem to be a definitive reference.

            This reference seems to have the same problem with the same ambiguity

            This (contemporary) reference (page 113), however, says "I = I + X + 1". Authorship is by the inventor, Joseph Weisbecker - I guess he will have known.

            To start with, have the current timeout to be a persistent variable, and then call clearTimeout with it right before calling loadRom. If nothing has been loaded yet, the clearTimeout just won't do anything.

            But because you have awaits as well, you'll need to check whether a new rom gets loaded while the awaits are going on. One way to accomplish this would be to have another persistent variable, the current romBuffer being used - if it's not the same as the romBuffer in the function closure, then another rom has started, so return immediately (and don't recursively create a timeout).

            Answered 2019-Jun-17 at 03:39

            It turned out the real culprit was not FetchM, but other parts of my code that required inlining of a lot of functions (one per each monadic bind in my main CPU monad!), and FetchM just increased the number of binds.

            The real problem was that my CPU monad was, among other things, a Writer (Endo CPUOut), and all those CPUOut -> CPUOut functions needed to be fully inlined since CLaSH can't represent functions as signals.

            All of this is explained in more detail in the related CLaSH bug ticket.
