Simple Alto Emulator fault task.
This version does a partial emulation of an Extended Memory Alto.
Specifically, it supports changing the emulator task’s alternate
bank register (for XMLDA, XMSTA, and BITBLT) and the display task’s
normal bank register (to move the display into XM).
It does NOT support emulating Alto instructions in XM.
If a fault occurs as a result of storing into write-protected page 377,
and the emulator’s or Alto display task’s bank register is the word
addressed, allow the store to proceed and also update the high part
of the appropriate base register. If any other word in page 377 was
addressed, ignore the store.
For any other fault, halts at one of the following breakpoints:
(In fault task, not having reset FaultInfo)
ManyFaultsMore than one fault
NotEmuFaultFault in non-emulator task
NotMapFaultMemory system fault other than map fault
UnknownFaultFault of unknown origin
(In emulator task, having reset FaultInfo)
StackErrorStack error from Alto emulator
MapFaultMap fault from Alto emulator
In the case of faults passed to the emulator task, interesting information
is left in R-registers, as follows:
FltErrorsNOT (Errors’)
FaultInfoNOT (Pipe2’)
FltEmuPCEmulator TPC at time of fault
FaultValDBuf -- value being stored if faulted on Store←

* changing any permanent state, and instructions that can cause faults
* (presumably only STA) must do so as their last microinstruction, so
* it is guaranteed that a new instruction will have begun by the time
* the fault occurs.
