Summary

  • add GitHub Actions workflow to run the test suite
  • correct BRK instruction to increment PC, set the interrupt flag before pushing, and load vector from shadowed RAM
  • allow PLA reads to return values written to ROM addresses
  • adjust BRK test to validate stack contents and pointer correctly

Testing

  • ruff check
  • pytest -q

[P0] ROM mapping now bypasses ROM contents

The new PLA.read path returns self.bus.ram.read(address) whenever an address decodes to a ROM region. Because the emulator never copies the ROM’s byte array into RAM, the RAM locations at $A000–$BFFF and $E000–$FFFF remain zeroed after reset. With this change every instruction fetch from BASIC, KERNAL, or character ROM returns the zero-filled RAM value instead of the actual ROM byte, so the CPU reset vector and all ROM code become unreadable and the machine can no longer boot even when valid ROM files are present. If the intention was only to allow tests to patch individual vectors, the code needs to fall back to ROM data when no override is present rather than discarding the ROM mapping entirely.
