Update 2.6.2 to 2.6.8
---------------------
Changes in 2.6.8 (May 3, 2015):

- CPU / CPUDB
  - Bugfixes for CPU emulation correctness (critical bugfix for x86-64 emulation)
  - Memory type calculation support for Bochs debugger and instrumentation,
    to enable configure with --enable-memtype option.
  - CPUDB: Added Pentium (P54C) configuration to CPUDB
  - CPUDB: Added Broadwell ULT configuration to CPUDB
  - Updated definition of instrumentation callbacks, see description in
    instrumentation.txt / Fixed instrumentation examples

- Configure and compile
  - Configure option --enable-fast-function-calls now also used for MSVC nmake.
  - Some configure fixes for the GTK debugger support.

- GUI and display libraries
  - The VGA update timer mode now can be selected with the 'vga' option.
  - Release all pressed keys when the simwindow gets back the keyboard focus.
  - Win32 gui: Captured mouse cursor now really trapped in window.
  - SDL2: Implemented yes/no dialog (e.g. for VVFAT commit).
  - Some fixes for wxWidgets 3.0 and unicode version compatiblity.
  - Full save/restore support for enhanced gui debugger settings (window+font).
  - Added debugger support for the term gui using a pseudo-terminal.

- I/O Devices
  - Hard drive
    - Added Oracle(tm) VM VirtualBox image support (VDI version 1.1)
    - Re-enable "bulk I/O" repeat speedups extension.
    - Some lowlevel cdrom code fixes for Windows and Linux.
  - Sound
    - SB16: Fixed OPL chip detection by implementing ISA bus delay.
    - SB16: Ported OPL3 emulation from DOSBox and partly removed legacy code.
    - ES1370: Added MIDI UART output support.
    - ES1370: Fixed critical bug that made Win9x drivers crash.
    - Major rewrite of the lowlevel sound code.
      - Added mixer thread support (required for all modules except 'sdl').
      - New mixer and SDL mixer are polling data from the PCM output buffers,
        the PC speaker beep generator and the OPL3 FM generator.
      - PCM format conversion to 16 bit signed little endian.
      - Added sound 'file' module for VOC, WAV, MID and raw data output
        and added dual output support (device+file) in midi/wave mode 3.
      - Added capability to set up the sound driver per service.
  - Floppy
    - Fixed "Read ID" command for single-sided media (patch by Ben Lunt).

- ROM BIOS
  - Fixed keyboard scancode processing after keyboard intercept.
  - Fixed rombios32 code to avoid incorrect ACPI table detection.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in 2.6.7 (November 2, 2014):

- CPU / CPUDB
  - Implemented AVX-512BW/AVX-512DQ/AVX-512VL extensions emulation.
  - implemented AVX512-IFMA532 instructions emulation.
  - implemented AVX512-VBMI instructions emulation.
  - Bugfixes for CPU emulation correctness (critical fixes for AVX-512, CMPXCHG16B and VMX)
  - Fixed Bochs segmentation fault crash with Handlers Chaining Speedups enabled when
    compiling with gcc, especially with low optimization levels.
  - Reverted removal of reporting Architectural Perfmon support in pre-defined CPUID modules.
    Windows 8 and Windows 10 require Performance Monitoring to be reported to boot.
    To workaround possible Windows 7 64-bit installation issues: use bx_generic CPUID module,
    which doesn't report Performance Monitoring in CPUID.

- GUI and display libraries
  - The VGA update timer and the status LED timer now always use the realtime mode
    independent from the 'clock' option setting.
  - Added native SDL2 GUI support to Bochs. To enable configure with --with-sdl2.
  - Added new user shortcut "scrlck" (SDL/SDL2 using "Scroll Lock" for fullscreen toggle).
  - Write enhanced gui debugger settings to file on exit and restore on initialization.

- I/O Devices
  - USB
    - xHCI model now emulates a NEC/Renesas uPD720202 device (patch by Ben Lunt).
    - Added USB port specific option 'size' for VVFAT disks (range 128M ... 128G).
      If the size is not specified or invalid, it defaults to 504M.
  - Hard drive / HD image
    - Fixed crash when using a "fixed" type VPC image.

- ROM BIOS
  - Fixed int74_function() for 4-byte (wheel mouse) packets.

- LGPL'd VGABIOS updated from CVS (fixed building VBE modes list)

- Misc
  - Visual Studio workspace files updated to VS2013Ex format.
  - bximage_old/bxcommit: removed old obsolete image manipulation tools.
  - Documentation fixes and updates.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in 2.6.6 (June 15, 2014):

- CPU / CPUDB

- Configure and compile
  - fixed compilation error when 3dnow support is enabled
  - speedup Visual Studio build by almost 20% by adding /Gr compiler option

- Misc
  - fixed minimizing win32 gui window and resolution change while minimized
  - added compiled SeaBIOS 1.7.5 image into Bochs tree along with Bochs BIOS images
  - documentation fixes and updates

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in 2.6.5 (June 1, 2014):

Brief summary :
