Allocate memory in an x86-64-compatible way
Another part of #3451
Note: While this shouldn't change how anything works, it's been the #1 source of breakage of 32-bit builds in #3451 (it was the cause for the failure of win32 to allocate memory and the failure of linux-32 afterward) so we should definitely make sure it gets tested
see #3523 for more information
Cons:
* requires ~180MB of physical memory (virtual memory is the same so it
doesn't impact the 4GB limit)
From steam: 98.81% got at least 2GB of RAM. 83.62% got at least 4GB of RAM.
That being said, it might not really increase RAM requirements as OS could put the
new allocation in the swap.
Pro:
* code is much easier
* remove at least half of the signal listener
* last but not least, it is way easier for profiler/debugger
While c782b62 added much more reliable game game startup detection, the
settings system did not yet gain that knowledge, but typically that's OK.
Typically the settings (and patches) are loaded according to the current
CRC, which happens once on bios boot (with general settings) and then again
when the game starts, which includes game-specific fixes, patches, etc.
However, if the setting are changed (and therefore also applied) after
the game CRC is known but before the game starts, such as if the user
presses Tab to change framelimiter while at the bios, then until now it
was accidentally applying the game's settings while still at the bios.
This commit makes the settings routine know whether or not the game actually
started, and apply the generic/game settings accordingly.
Debian has a goal to make reproducible builds therefore make it an
option instead of distro specific.
.
I added an "OR openSusE" to not "break" the old openSUSE behavior but ideally
they should just use -DDISABLE_BUILD_DATE=TRUE instead.
.
The old -DopenSUSE is not used for anything else so I removed it.
The goal is to reduce the burden for new architecture port.
Patch is mostly inspired from 3kinox initial patch. The diff are
*/ used ifdef instead of raw removal
*/ gui don't rely on UseMicroVU* option
*/ completely remove sVU_micro.* file
Fixes RPMLINT warning:
pcsx2.i586: W: file-contains-date-and-time /usr/bin/pcsx2
Your file uses __DATE and __TIME__ this causes the package to rebuild when not needed
SSE2 is supported on more than decade-old x86 CPUs. Almost(?) every x86 CPU since PS2 was released.
Certainly running the existing code on a non-SSE2 computer resulted in most of the code being disabled anyway and the emulator being incredibly slow.
This removal will hopefully allow the removal of MMX/3DNow code as it has been superceded.
Fixed a bad string in the German translation, added GSdx-avx2 to the installer, silenced a debug print and shortened the app name in release builds.

* use svnrev.h on linux too
* replace sprintf_s with snprintf (hope it still compile on Windows)
* init integer with 0 instead of NULL
* various int -> u32/uint32/uint on for loop index
* remove a couple of unused variable
* init few variable
* disable unused warning results

* Moved VIF dynamic recompiler buffers to the recompilers section of PCSX2.
* Using RecompiledCodeReserve for the VIF SSE functions.
* Minor bugfixes to VirtualMemory class implementations.
* Improved error handling and error message display.
* [TODO] : implement a call to cpuShutdown() to clean up VIF unpack/SSE reserves.

* Finished up zipfile-style savestate implementation
* Simplified BaseSaveState class, and removed lots of now-unneeded code.
* Prepared the i18n stuff for a pcsx2_Dev.pot file (WIP), and sorted more stuff to pcsx2_Tertiary.pot.

- Added mVUcacheInitReserve and mVUcacheMaxReserve constant values for now which can be tinkered with until we implement runtime user-modifiable cache reserve-sizes.
- Improved the "microVU - cached program" printouts on dev builds.
pcsx2:
- Fixed the typos in SysOutOfMemory_EmergencyResponse()

* Added logging of host operating system and physical ram to startup.
* Removed "PhysicalCores" stuff from both x86emitter and startup logs -- physical cores is losing its relevance with all the new AMD and Intel chip designs.
