Root cause of the missing THRA write (HOST PORT test): the level-1 host-port
test's transmit is ISR-driven, and the DUART interrupt was never wired to the
CPU. The firmware installs RAM trampolines in the fixed vector table (INT1
vector 0xffffffc0 -> stub at bit 0x0f60 = JA 0x3FA92F40, which calls the DUART
ISR L3FA78D90 with (2, 0x270860, 0x6400000)). Counters: INTENB reaches 0x0006
(INT1|INT2) at the test, so interrupts are enabled.
vt1200.cpp: wire m_duart1/m_duart2 irq_cb() to CPU external interrupt 1/2
(duart1_irq_w/duart2_irq_w), gated on VT1200_DUART. Result: THRA writes go
from 0 to 20 per run; the test's SRA-overrun and RHRA-pattern checks now pass.
MAME tree (mc68681.cpp/.h), two datasheet-backed corrections with revert notes:
1. TxRDY was asserted mid-character ("not until the end of start bit time");
the datasheet asserts it at the THR->TSR transfer. Corrected.
2. The overrun error was latched when the overrunning character *completed*
(rx_fifo_push); the datasheet latches it "upon receipt of the start bit of
the new (overrunning) character". Corrected via duart_channel::rx_w().
This clears every check in the RXCHECK sub-test (flags 1 -> 0).
Acceptance is NOT met: cap.lua still prints 'LEVEL1/2 ERROR -> HOST PORT - 15'.
The next failure is the preceding L3FA71BC0 (DUART baud/timer) sub-test
returning 6; its flag-set sites were breakpointed and never fired. Regression
holds (no VT1200_* env -> PC=3FDCE400 samples=199). Details, numbers and the
datasheet audit: harness/mame/DUART_REPORT.md sections FINAL FINDINGS / UPDATE.
