wish I were brain normal enough to work on something for a sustained period of time and be cool and finish it me: I want to work on MAME Driver X you know how much I like reverse engineering hardware also me: hmm, I don’t own an X to compare it to and X costs $5,000 on eBay
That also said, that mid-instruction-interruptible 68k core is going to be necessary for emulating the DTACK line. More broadly, that includes some 68k-based Macs and all of the CD-i players that used an MCU dubbed 'SLAVE' (Philips's term, not mine) for I/O.

Apparently, the MCU will yank the /DTACK line on the SCC68070 (a 68000-based SoC) to go "Whoa, hold on a minute bro" via GPIO port B whenever a write or read to GPIO port A occurs.

I'm confused. Holding DTACK/ unasserted (high) doesn't interrupt the program, it just prevents the memory cycle from completing until DTACK/ is asserted (low). It's like WAIT on other processors. Why would you need an instruction-interruptible core to emulate that?

That said, I think the 68070 does have bus and address error recovery by stack puke like the 68010. It doesn't use the actual 68000 core.
