Repurpose vibrate_on_keypress to enable device's standard keypress feedback on overlay key/button state changes
- Add keypress_vibrate function ptr to input_driver_t (only implemented on Android for now)
- (Android) Remove APP_CMD_VIBRATE_KEYPRESS
- (Android) Add doHapticFeedback, called directly to avoid latency
* Add View feature
Add saving of a filter set in the Explore menu into a so called "View" file which then gets listed alongside playlists.
This also adds the ability to filter a category by range in the Explore menu and not just filter on exact matches.
* Menu improvements for explore and views
* Collapse ozone sidebar in view
* Fix problems with the sidebar in explore/view
* Ignore view files in the Qt playlists menu
* Add missing semicolon
* Support downloading thumbnails in views
* * Use flags for rarch_state
* Get rid of ^M linebreaks in retroarch_types.h
* Buildfixes for consoles
* (audio driver) use flags instead of bools
* (video) Use flags instead of bools
* Rewrite input driver state bools into flags
There's a bunch of directories that should have defaults, that don't,
which causes a few issues.
Defaults added:
- thumbnails
- overlays
- screenshots
- autoconfig
== DETAILS
Looks like Wii U's mkdir() implementation doesn't like trailing
slashes either.
Since we already have an implementation to handle this, I just added
Wii U to it.
== DETAILS
Previous work to clean up the HTTP networking code surfaced a bug
in `socket_connect_with_timeout()` that caused connections to
immediately fail. Specifically, achievements stopped working because
the http task code path was rewritten to use
`socket_connect_with_timeout` instead of `socket_connect`.
The bug appears to come down to an unsupported socket option. The final
check is to try to read `SO_ERROR` from the socket, and on WIIU the
`getsockopt()` call returns -1 and sets `lastsocketerr()` (WIIU's
equivalent to errno) to 16.
The fix is to change the logic to only abort the connection if that
`getsockopt()` call succeeds *and* the error is set.
* Fix Sixaxis gamepad operation
== DETAILS
It looks like commit 78e7d23c14 broke
the DualShock. Sorry, @revvv, but this is probably going to break the
Retrode driver. We'll need to figure out a different solution.
* Fix a bunch of HID implementations
== DETAILS
As mentioned in the previous commit, the thing that broke the DS3
driver was a change to the wiiu HID handler, which did some pointer
math on the data buffer.
The thing is.. there's no reason to do that pointer math. Yet, I found
the same thing on almost every other HID driver: OSX, libusb, wiiusb.
The only other HID driver that did not do this was the Bluetooth
HID driver.
It doesn't make any sense. The only reason it doesn't crash is because
the memory right before the buffer is valid memory.
Change summary:
- remove the weird pointer math from all HID controllers
- remove the `#ifdef apple ...` in the ds3 and gamecube adapter
drivers, because it's no longer needed.
- in the pad packet handlers, decrement data buffer offset references
to account for the removal of the buffer manipulation.
* Fix DualShock 4
== DETAILS
Should've only subtracted 1, not 2; and now the pad works.
Also, added a PID to cover newer model DS4s. I picked "R2" out of the air
for the constant.
Tested on Mac OS
* Really really fix iohidmanager_set_report
A huge apology to @23rd for insulting your fix. I was wrong to call you
wrong.
That left the question: why did that change break the DS3?
Well, it's because `IOHIDDeviceSetReport` expects the report buffer to be
just the report. All of RA's HID SetReport calls include the report number
in the first byte, so we have to trim that off.
We actually do this in a different invocation of `IOHIDDeviceSetReport`
elsewhere in the file! This commit applies that same logic to
`iohidmanager_set_report`
This has two benefits:
1. The DS3 works
2. The DS3 no longer requres the user to press the PS button to activate
it the first time. You plug it in and it Just Works, just like on Wii U.
* New Menu Items Disable Info & Search
Add menu options for disabling Info and Search buttons
* Update msg_hash_us.h
Update Sublabels
* Update menu_setting.c
Set Advanced flag for new settings
* MacOS: Fix sixaxis on MacOS 12.x
== DETAILS
Mac OS 12.x "Monterey" dropped some built-in support for the
Sixaxis controller--exactly what changed is unclear, but other
projects reported similar issues with the OS.
This commit ports the work done on SDL, which is basically to
read two feature reports after writing out the activation report.
I think we did this at one point in the past, but it got lost
among HID driver rewrites.
I've tested this locally and it resolves the issue; after connecting
the sixaxis and pressing the Playstation button, the pad is registered
and works successfully.
I have not tested this on other platforms.
* Gracefully handle incomplete HID implementations
== DETAILS
Not all HID drivers implement all HID methods; since this controller
has a magic sequence that requires the ability to set and get HID
reports, we need to make sure we don't crash if we're running on
an incomplete implementation.
- Add a null check for the driver methods and log useful info if checks
fail
- Fix minor formatting
with configure switch.
Reasons:
* Libcaca video driver support seems half baked, can't even render RGUI
right now on Windows. Not worth the troubleshooting for regular users or
the DLL linkage (which adds to filesize) until further developed
* Better native audio driver alternatives exist for OpenAL on both Windows and Linux
* VFS: Fix stream size after truncate / write calls
Those changes ensure the stream size get updated correctly after a
truncate or write call.
* File Stream: Fix file stream eof
After a write call, EOF would be incorrect because it was only updated
after a read call.
if condition variable is signaled, the loop is ran another
last time so we can do a final check/save before stopping the thread.

* Don't do snprintf calls in loops that can be done once outside
* Try to prevent some msg_hash_to_str calls in loops
* Add FIXME/TODO localize notes to hardcoded strings
* Reduce some snprintf calls by moving them out of if/else blocks
* Simplify early return path for one function
* Reduce snprintf and/or use them only for concatenating the
string formatting of numbers/values
* Reduce snprintfs
* Use snprintf for concatenation at parts
* * We don't need to NULL-terminate strings that get passed to strlcpy/strlcat
and friends
* Use snprintf for concatenation in certain instances
* Do away with some string intermediary copies where we can avoid it
* Fix warning unused variable
* * Reduce snprintf calls
* Rewrite snprintf calls into strlcpy where possible
* Use snprintf for concatenation when necessary
* Do away with some string intermediary copies in task_translation.c
* run_translation_service - make switch slightly smaller
one - if you set the last parameter to a valid 'rarch_setting_t' pointer
and enum_msg to MSG_UNKNOWN, you will get the previous menu_entries_append
behavior
* Renamed remaining function to menu_entries_append so that we have one
consistent way of adding menu entries instead of two
Reduces some code duplication significantly
when the previous title differs from the current title
(X11) Have to roll back the previous title optimization/less calls to XChangeProperty,
because the title is lost upon toggling between fullscreen/windowed and is no longer
set
at regular intervals even when the title output for the window title had not
changed at all, now we compare it properly against the last set title, and
only if it has changed will we make the call to XChangeProperty. Also, do
away with strlen(title) calculation and use return value of
video_driver_get_window_title instead
(menu_displaylist.c) Some optimizations:
* Make sure val_d is never bigger than 16, it should just
contain a number. 16 is more than plenty (and probably too big even)
* Hose val_d out of loops if its value never changes inside the loop
* Attempt to avoid calling msg_hash_to_str inside loops unnecessarily
* Don't attempt to call msg_hash_to_str in a loop, cache it once outside
inside a local variable
* Do away with some spurious snprintf usage for RGUI (truncation does not matter
as pointed out by jdgleaver, so we needn't be concerned)
(snprintf) Try to reduce or simplify snprintf calls, only tend to
use it for processing integers/numbers and avoid it for regular
string concatenation (NOTE: we try to be a bit safer about it to
address earlier cited criticism, although we don't consider concatenating
3 or 4 characters at the end to be insecure)
(msg_hash_to_str) Try to avoid duplicate calls to the same localized
string when we can just cache the results once instead locally
file path names instead of snprintf
(ctr_gfx.c) Use strlcpy instead of snprintf where possible
(ctr_gfx.c) Use snprintf instead of sprintf where possible
(ctr_gfx.c) Some general style nits
Avoids the internal strlen call inside strdup, and strdup is a deprecated
function starting from MSVC2005 anyways.
NOTE: Do NOT pass STRLEN_CONST as n parameter to strldup, it needs to
be at least +1 character higher than the strlen return value of the same
string
* steam.c - cleanups:
* Use string_to_lower from libretro-common/stdstring.c instead of
its own version
* Some stylistic changes
* Rewrite strncpy calls into strlcpy/strlcat/manual assignment
* Make it C89 compliant
* Some unused variables
- unsafe strcpy/strcat/sprintf were used, so pass 'len' parameters
to detect_{system} functions so that we can use the safer strlcpy/strlcat
calls instead
- thanks to strlcat/strlcpy return values, we can do less string concatenations
and get the same results
- some other miscellanous cleanups
Reasons:
1 - Just a macro for strcpy
1.2 - doesn't have a return type unlike strlcpy, can't be used
for string concatenation
1.3 - unsafe compared to strlcpy
Do either manual string assignment per character or strlcpy, no
inbetween by resorting to strcpy
instead of this manual assignment, we can take advantage of the
string list in one of the instances to add the extensions to it.
Less string copying/concatenation that way later on as well.
* Append the extension to the string earlier before it's passed
to the leaf function that needs it
(retroarch.c) retroarch_get_capabilities - get rid of strlcat
party in RARCH_CAPABILITIES_CPU, do simple manual assignment for
concatenation instead and NULL terminate at the end
(menu_displaylist.c) Do something about some of the unnecessarily huge
local strings of PATH_MAX_LENGTH size (can be as large as 8192)
(menu_displaylist.c) Replace some trivial strlcats / snprintfs
(D3D10/D3D11/D3D12) Strings don't need to be initialized -
strlcpy already null-terminates - get rid of some constants
- (database_info.c) Optimizations for database_info_build_query_enum() -
it would call strlcat at the very least 3 times, normally more than that.
Every strlcat call is at least one or more strlens. Reduce it all down
to manual string concatenation and one strlcat
- (database_info_build_query_enum) - always NULL terminates string so no need for NULL termination done by callee
* (menu_displaylist) use smaller strings for basename paths, remove one unnecessary string
in menu_displaylist.c function
- (disk_index_file.c) Avoid another trivial string concatenation by doing
it manually after fill_pathname_join_special
- (fill_pathname_join_delim) since fill_pathname_join_delim() now has a return value, use it for
string concatenation
- (platform_unix) - Use BUFSIZ as size for a buffer in system_property_get
- some other trivial strlcat usage replacements
(menu_contentless_cores) Fix mistake - needed to set len to return
value of fill_pathname_join_special
(configuration.c) Fix some unused variable warnings on Linux
CyberLab custom Blargg NTSC Filter Presets offer improved dedithering with less scrolling, shimmering and other artifacts than current core included Blargg NTSC Filter implementations.
They also work properly with several cores that would otherwise result in a squished image if using the Blargg NTSC SNES filters currently available in the Video Filters folder.
as deprecated.
* Use fill_pathname_join_special in the vast majority of cases where
we can ensure out_path is a new empty string
* Get rid of some extension concatenation with strlcat where encountered
* Some general cleanups with NULL termination of strings that get immediately
passed to strlcpy/strlcpy-adjacent functions
- was doing a strlen first on path to calculate the length
- stored at least three local variables for string constants
- did another memcmp check after doing the length comparison conditional first
Simplify all this into a simple string comparison checking if the
path starts with the string 'vfsonly://' and/or 'cdrom://' -
avoid both strlen and memcmp cost. Also removed the need for
stdstring.h header include - just translated STRLEN_CONST into
(sizeof(x)-1) - no header file dependency for the only usage of stdstring.h
in this file
* First pass - unique variable names
* (file_path_special.c) fill_pathname_application_special() - no longer
a recursive function, other optimizations
* Buildfix
* Put another HAVE_XMB ifdef around xmb_theme_ident
* Remove unused variables
* Remove more unused variables and use fill_pathname_join instead of strlcpy
at the end
* struct was erroneously named 'catagory' - changed to 'category'
* Removed some strlcpys that were just setting the string to a fixed constant value
* Random nits
(libretro-common) docs - document when string has to be non-NULL or else UB (undefined behavior)
(libretro-common) stdstring.c - string_hex_to_unsigned - make strlen call unneeded
* Convert some glslang files to C (OSIndependent files)
* Fix some strings that were preventing Unix from being compilable
* Remove leftover for Apple in griffin_glslang.cpp - fixes compilation
* Get rid of unused glslang/GenericCodeGen files
* Get rid of unused test files
* Get rid of unused Sh import interface
* Get rid of unused standalone files
* Get rid of unused Reflection/IoMapper files
Changed return value of detect_ps1_game function to actuially return a

`llvm-11` changed the default from `-fcommon` to `-fno-common`:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D75056
As a result build fails as:
LD retroarch
duplicate symbol '_apple_platform' in:
obj-unix/release/ui/drivers/ui_cocoa.o
obj-unix/release/ui/drivers/cocoa/cocoa_common.o
duplicate symbol '_apple_platform' in:
obj-unix/release/ui/drivers/ui_cocoa.o
obj-unix/release/gfx/drivers_context/cocoa_gl_ctx.o
ld: 2 duplicate symbols for architecture x86_64
The change moves `apple_platform` definition from `apple_platform.h`
to `cocoa_common.m` leaving only declaration in `apple_platform.h`.
* (joypad_connection) Small optimizations -
* Turn functions static where possible
* Hose strlen call out of loop
* (input_driver.c) General cleanups:
* Some small code/style nits
task_screenshot.c:
* Move widget callback function for screenshots to task_screenshot.c
(file_path.c):
* Turn get_pathname_num_slashes into static function
* path_linked_list_free - always returns true, so get rid of return value
* path_linked_list_new - fix function signature
* path_get_archive_delim - do not NULL-terminate string, already done by strlcpy later on
General:
* Slight optimizations - use int/size_t for loop counter variable instead of unsigned
* Take advantage of fact that strlcpy already NULL-terminates, so don't do this explicitly
outside if we're just going to end up calling strlcpy/fill_pathname_join on it anyway
according to documentation note - 'You must not deallocate memory before calling
FT_Done_Face' - so store a pointer to the font data and then free it after calling
FT_Done_Face
* Work more with return values, prevent unnecessary local stack variables
when possible
* Reduce lines of code
* Move local stack variables to proper scope
- Get rid of memset, set the member variables to 0 manually instead. Note - rcDevice is behind a _MAC ifdef in the headers (some hypothetical Mac port
of Windows which never happened and therefore the ifdef is useless), so rcDevice is not set and will just be unused anyway
- Variable scoping, move variables to where they are needed
- get rid of unused gfx_display_driver_exists
- get rid of useless wrapper function gfx_display_font_init_first
- rewrite gfx_display_font_file somewhat
font from memory - first read it from file to memory beforehand -
this solves an asset extraction issue when selecting 'Update Assets' -
apparently FT_New_Face keeps an open file handle to the font file which
prevents it from being overwritten/deleted while the program is still
running.
TODO/FIXME - move file loading code out of the font renderer init function
and move it higher level
slock_lock/slock_unlock seem needless anyway, so we just reference slock_lock/slock_unlock directly and put it behind
HAVE_THREADS ifdefs so the user/programmer knows what is going on
When a shader preset is loaded now when there are more than one #reference line the parameter values will be loaded from the references after the first one
This simple change makes lan discovery work on android again.
The is_lan_address function was meant to filter out duplicate rooms only anyway and this change shouldn't harm anything

Replaced many blurry app icons, instead using icons from higher resolution sources.
Revised iOS app icon color & spacing slightly, attempting to match the pattern used in the recent Android and Switch versions of RetroArch.
Fixed the @2x icon sizing. Each @2x icon was previously the same size as its @1x counterpart, resulting in odd graphical errors when the icon was selected on the tvOS home screen.
Switched to the non-outlined RetroArch logo to match the iOS app icon—and because I was unable to find a high enough resolution version of the outlined logo to properly create @2x icon layers for it.
Separated the icon layers further, going from two layers to three (eyes on their own layer now) to improve the resultant tvOS home screen parallax effect on it. The eyes now move ever so slightly—independent of the body.
* Honor SUBOPTIMAL on non-Android since you'd want to recreate
swapchains then. On Android it can be promoted to SUCCESS.
SUBOPTIMAL_KHR can happen there when rotation (pre-rotate) is wrong.
* Small cleanups in general - less conditionals
Path: Netplay -> Host -> Kick Client
- Allows the host to kick clients.
- Allows the host to view client information: connected clients (names), status (playing/spectating) and ping.
Refresh rate in exclusive fullscreen mode was being incorrectly multiplied by vsync swap interval, breaking swap interval functionality at the gfx driver level
With stateless mode being disabled for now, there is no reason not to include this.
Refuse to initialize netplay when the current core is not supported (no proper savestates support).
Stateless mode is nonfunctional at the moment, despite my attempts to get it working.
A significant amount of work is required to get it working.
For now, force-disable stateless mode and hide it from menus and the CLI's help text.
Closes https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/3414
I have investigated the issue. The crux of the problem is that on Android there
is no way distinguishing 2 scenarios:
1) 2 identical bluetooth controllers A and B and first there are button presses
only on controller A and then on controller B
2) the same controller disconnects and reconnects.
Android doesn't give bluetooth mac address of where the touch came from, only
opaque ID and this opaque ID changes after reconnect. Hence without changes to
android this is infeasible without giving up the ability for 2 users to play on
identical controllers.
I guess that this sacrifice makes sense for affected users
due to some changes in bluez / bluetoothctl, `pairable on` is required
in order to create a `[LinkKey]` section in the configuration file for
the connected device. if this section is missing, the device / gamepad
will not pair after being disconnect and has to be repaired again.
Lakka ships these files already in the image. in some cases downloading
files provided by the buildbot can cause issues, as these files might be
not compatible with the core version provided by the Lakka image.
Enable it as it does not freeze. This provides an audio backend that
can report its buffer status, allowing auto frame skip to work on cores
that support it.
Do not build or include alsathread as it results in choppy audio.
Similarly, leave tinyalsa disabled as it plays back at a higher pitch
and is also choppy.
Change the default sample rate to 32000Hz as the previous default of
32730Hz is derived from the 3DS.
* CXX_BUILD buildfixes
* (D3D11) Buildfixes for CXX_BUILD
* (Linux/qb) Disable KMS for Linux when building for C89, headers use inline which is not

Move frequently accessed member variables to the beginning of the
structure to improve cache locality. Having menu_texture at the end of
the structure also saves one instruction in the hot path of
sdl_rs90_gfx_frame() (for the ARMv5TE Miyoo) as well as a few other
functions.
Controllers with same VID/PID are distinguished by the device name.
1. The Wii U only sends a prefix of the device name.
2. The check preferred the device name over VID/PID which was not
intended.
Example: The device name "USB Gamepad" is truncated to "USB" which
was mapped to "Generic SNES USB Controller", although VID/PID did not
match.
Otherwise autoconfig file can't be found on the Wii U:
VID/PID are not available, so it has to match with 'input_device' and I
don't want to add additional autoconfig files with different
'input_device' strings.
- Ensure core is properly unloaded when RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_SHUTDOWN is called
- Ensure menu stack is properly flushed when RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_SHUTDOWN is called
Otherwise the USB gamepad cannot be found, if VID/PID has leading zero.
For example: Retrode gamepad adapter:
vid=1027 (0x403) pid=38849 (0x97c1) becomes
vid=1027 (0x403) pid=-26687 (0xffff97c1)

Netplay Task: Network interface scoring changed from byte-level to bit-level.
Currently each time a screen resolution or setting change occurs, fbdev_destroy, fbdev_init and fbdev_set_mode are called in sequence, trying to destroy context and surface (though context pointer seems to remain unchanged) and create again both of them.
However it seems something is wrong with egl_destroy, as after the call fps drops from 60 to 33fps in GUI with huge performance impact, at least with libmali.
Philosophy is changed with this commit to avoid destroying and creating context and surface each time (creation only occurs in fbdev_init and egl_destroy is called only if retroarch is shutting down).
As a minor modification, framebuffer is resetted to 0 on retroarch shutdown to avoid any chance of freezed screen effect.
* Allow loading files from archive subdirectory
Common example is "games.7z#game1/version1.ext" current code assumes that
everything that is before last slash is part of filesystem directory which
is false in this case.
* Fix listing of archive subdirectories
Currently file_archive_get_file_list_cb returns 0 on skipped entries.
It's wrong as calling convention for it is "0 means to stop iterating".
So on first extensionless file or an explicitly listed directory
further listing has stopped
* Fixed crash on boot with xmb and vulkan driver Fixed wrong blend state affecting the ribbon shader Fixed up C++ style comments with C style
* Fixed compilation issue - I made a last minute change and thought I had compiled it but obviously hadn't! No wonder it worked.
-In case yoffset is not set=0 by the driver (which seems to occur randomly on certain configurations), on next set_video_mode call screen freezes and cannot be updated. Condition to set yoffset to 0 if current value is >0 is added as fix.
-If setterm is not available, sh error occurs in the shell on gfx_ctx_mali_fbdev_destroy call. Condition based on setterm availability is added to avoid this.
-If pixclock from driver is not available (=0), divide by 0 occurs when trying to calculate refresh rate. Condition is added as a fix, if pixclock=0 refresh rate is set as 60.

* Netplay Stuff
## PROTOCOL FALLBACK
In order to support older clients a protocol fallback system was introduced.
The host will no longer send its header automatically after a TCP connection is established, instead, it awaits for the client to send his before determining which protocol this connection is going to operate on.
Netplay has now two protocols, a low protocol and a high protocol; the low protocol is the minimum protocol it supports, while the high protocol is the highest protocol it can operate on.
To fully support older clients, a hack was necessary: sending the high protocol in the unused client's header salt field, while keeping the protocol field to the low protocol. Without this hack we would only be able to support older clients if a newer client was the host.
Any future system can make use of this system by checking connection->netplay_protocol, which is available for both the client and host.
## NETPLAY CHAT
Starting with protocol 6, netplay chat is available through the new NETPLAY_CMD_PLAYER_CHAT command.
Limitations of the command code, which causes a disconnection on unknown commands, makes this system not possible on protocol 5.
Protocol 5 connections can neither send nor receive chat, but other netplay operations are unaffected.
Clients send chat as a string to the server, and it's the server's sole responsability to relay chat messages.
As of now, sending chat uses RetroArch's input menu, while the display of on-screen chat uses a widget overlay and RetroArch's notifications as a fallback.
If a new overlay and/or input system is desired, no backwards compatibility changes need to be made.
Only clients in playing mode (as opposed to spectating mode) can send and receive chat.
## SETTINGS SHARING
Some settings are better used when both host and clients share the same configuration.
As of protocol 6, the following settings will be shared from host to clients (without altering a client's configuration file): input latency frames and allow pausing.
## NETPLAY TUNNEL/MITM
With the current MITM system being defunct (at least as of 1.9.X), a new system was in order to solve most if not all of the problems with the current system.
This new system uses a tunneling approach, which is similar to most VPN and tunneling services around.
Tunnel commands:
RATS[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Session) - 16 bytes -> When this command is sent with a zeroed unique id, the tunnel server interprets this as a netplay host wanting to create a new session, in this case, the same command is returned to the host, but now with its unique session id. When a client needs to connect to a host, this command is sent with the unique session id of the host, causing the tunnel server to send a RATL command to the host.
RATL[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Link) - 16 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to the host when a client wants to connect to the host. Once the host receives this command, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server, sending this command together with the client's unique id through this new connection, causing the tunnel server to link this connection to the connection of the client.
RATP (RetroArch Tunnel Ping) - 4 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to verify that the host, whom the session belongs to, is still around. The host replies with the same command. A session is closed if the tunnel server can not verify that the host is alive.
Operations:
Host -> Instead of listening and accepting connections, it connects to the tunnel server, requests a new session and then monitor this connection for new linking requests. Once a request is received, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server for linking with a client. The tunnel server's address and port are obtained by querying the lobby server. The host will publish its session id together with the rest of its info to the lobby server.
Client -> It connects to the tunnel server and then sends the session id of the host it wants to connect to. A host's session id is obtained from the json data sent by the lobby server.
Improvements (from current MITM system):
No longer a risk of TCP port exhaustion; we only use one port now at the tunnel server.
Very little cpu usage. About 95% net I/O bound now.
Future backwards compatible with any and all changes to netplay as it no longer runs any netplay logic at MITM servers.
No longer operates the host in client mode, which was a source of many of the current problems.
Cleaner and more maintainable system and code.
Notable functions:
netplay_mitm_query -> Grabs the tunnel's address and port from the lobby server.
init_tcp_socket -> Handles the creation and operation mode of the TCP socket based on whether it's host, host+MITM or client.
handle_mitm_connection -> Creates and completes linking connections and replies to ping commands (only 1 of each per call to not affect performance).
## MISC
Ping Limiter: If a client's estimated latency to the server is higher than this value, connection will be dropped just before finishing the netplay handshake.
Ping Counter: A ping counter (similar to the FPS one) can be shown in the bottom right corner of the screen, if you are connected to a host.
LAN Discovery: Refactored and moved to its own "Refresh Netplay LAN List" button.
## FIXES
Many minor fixes to the current netplay implementation are also included.
* Remove NETPLAY_TEST_BUILD
* convert abs mouse from screen to viewport coordinates; fix relative mouse code to work in screen mode
* C89 compatibility
* revert accidental include
* make check for standard io by access rather than the just assuming based on path string
* add code to auto permissions so files can be accessed by non vfs cores
(no exfat or fat32 support yet)
* remove commit from macro because apparently it causes issues

* Allow parallel compilation in PS2
* Allow to compile with griffin or common compilation in PS2
* Enable dummy core to be used in other platforms
* Use threads in YML config
* Add the compilation to PS2 in GitHub Actions
This can fix a lot of performance issues, like audio crackling and frame
time spikes. This requires the GameMode package to be installed. See:
https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode
This commit adds a "Game Mode" bool option to the "Power
Management" and "Latency" settings sections, and it can be toggled
on/off without restarting RA.
The actual toggling of game mode happens in a new frontend platform
interface function. Perhaps this will become useful for other platforms
that provide some equivalent of Linux GameMode.
Since the GameMode ABI is fixed, and the API comes as a single,
header-only file with no actual deps, we simply bundle the header
(deps/feralgamemode/gamemode_client.h.) That way, all Linux builds will
have support for GameMode regardless of whether the GameMode development
package is installed or not.
== DETAILS
So, the reason the gamepad was getting deregistered was
because adapter free code wasn't properly handling null-interface
adapters, causing the gamepad to match erroneously and get
deregistered.
This doesn't fix the weird "Generic SNES USB" detection issue,
but it should make it non-fatal.

* Added setting to allow/disallow players other than the host from pausing the game.
* Added a sublabel for netplay max connections.
* Fixed port override macro from not being set immediately after the port setting.
* Fixed memory leaks.
The emulating mailbox infrastructure is very hacky and needs a rethink
to be able to properly support screenshots. emulating mailbox is pretty
nasty to begin with and should be considered a hack.
== DETAILS
The problem was caused by changing the driver lookup point. The deferred
lookup resulted in the WIIU trying to treat the keyboard as a gamepad which ...
didn't work.
This change short-circuits at the connection event by ignoring mouse &
keyboard connection events.
Tested this with a dev build.

* Move ui_companion_driver code out of retroarch.c
* Buildfix
* Fix error - was reading the array out of (preinitialized) bounds
* Remove unused variable
When Shutdown or Reboot are selected from the main menu, configuration
is saved regardless of checking the user setting. Showing the widget and
saving the configuration should be called only in case user wants to
save configuration on exit.
will be backwards compatible with any version that removed this
disconnect. instead of disconnecting, we just read the data and
ignore, like most network implementations do
* Any pad can control the menu
== DETAILS
I am not sure I've quite got it so that any pad can *open* the
menu, but I do have it so any pad can control it.
- split out the input processing into a separate method
- track down and squish some hairy bugs that boiled down to
bad pointer math
- it looks like `menu_driver.c` has a mix of line endings, so I
ran it through `dos2unix` so it has consistent line endings
again.
- verified that this change did not impact actual cores
* optimize out cumulative_bits
* Incorporate PR feedback
Many thanks to @jdgleaver for providing these optimizations.
* apply one more optimization
* CRT Fractal scalling fix for SR2
Added comment to remind me to add video core to SR2
fixed typo

* Cleanup
* Move more state to runloop_state
* Remove unused variable
* Cleanups
* move input_remapping functions over to input_driver.c
* Some buildfixes
== DETAILS
The crashes he reported in the gbatemp thread are due to iface
being null (since it's an unsupported device) and unchecked
iface dereferences.
== DETAILS
- only call disconnect when we're actually disconnecting a remote
(e.g. read errors or remote goes to sleep).
- clean up some compile warnings introduced by others (mainly
unused variables)
== DETAILS
Put the finishing touches on getting the DS3 to work on Mac OSX.
Basically, there's some differences in the HID interface bewtween
wiiu and osx where OSX expects the first byte of the report to be
the report ID, while wiiu expects that byte to be trimmed off.
I was able to put this behavior in the respective HID
implementations, which eliminated the confusing packet offset
ifdefs.
And, I was able to get the LEDs working again.
== DETAILS
The DS3 driver previously only worked with the Wii U HID implementation.
I adapted this driver from the Linux driver for the DS3. It's not quite
100%--I haven't got the LEDs to work properly--but it's functional.
Going to continue tweaking it to see if I can get the LEDs to work.

== DETAILS
- rewrote the HID deregistration algorithm; it should no longer
cause issues when dealing with multiple pads of the same HID/VID
combo
- fix initialization bug that caused wiimotes to fail to register
without an accessory attached
== DETAILS
The GCA uses a weird HID class that our current filters don't
catch, so we add it.
Needed to do a small amount of tweaking on the GCA driver to
account for iohidmanager weirdness.
== DETAILS
The HID drivers in `input/connect/` were missing an implementation
for button(), so I added it. The only exception is the wii driver,
which is really complicated and more than I wanted to try to tackle--
especially since WIIU has its own wiimote drivers.
== DETAILS
Use a little trickery to ensure the GCA driver continues working
with other HID implementation.
I've expanded the joypad implementation to support multi-pad devices.
However, this requires changes to each HID implementation to actually
function.
I've made the necessary changes for WIIU, but I don't have the means
of making the change in the other HID implementations.
So, I've built in a backwards-compatibilty mode for the driver.
The trick is to have an identifier byte at the top of both data structs
that the driver returns. We can then use that byte to determine which
of the structs has been passed to the pad functions and act accordingly.
In the GCA case, for non-wiiu platforms, it will simply expose port 1
of the GCA and the other 3 ports do nothing.
== DETAILS
cause of crash: trying to deference init when it's null
the reason it was going into deregister: the HID/VID lookup was
failing because it wasn't getting initialized first
cause of 2nd crash: the "end of pad list" method looked for an entry
with a magic value, so we add an end marker
== DETAILS
I'm going to need to re-implement the abstraction between HID device
and gamepad; the changes here lay down some foundation for that work.
- reduce logging priority of some statements I modified while debugging
- factor out the pad driver lookup into its own method
- fix so the pad driver list isn't re-initialized every invocation
- add the button() method for the GCA driver
== DETAILS
When I first implemented the Wii U HID architecture, I ended up
having to design my own implementation because, at the time, I did
not have a way to read the HID device string to allow the existing
code to successfully detect the gamepad.
After spending some time experimenting, I've figured out how to
do this. And that means I can better align the HID driver with other
platforms.
change summary:
- create a single state structure for all three sub-types of wiiu pads
(kpad, wpad, and hid)
- eliminate confusing duplicate pad lists
- eliminate confusing duplicate HID pad drivers (ds3, gamecube
adapter, etc)
- ensure the ds3 driver still works
== DETAILS
So, basically this back-and-forth is because we used fixed-size
data types (i.e. `uint32_t`) which maps to different primitive data
types on different platforms. So `uint32_t` might be a `long` on some
platforms (e.g. Wii U), while it's just a plain integer on others (PC).
And the format specifier works off primitive data type, not data type
size.
So, to resolve this, we:
- keep `%lx` as the format specifier
- cast the parameter to printf to unsigned long
This is better than the alternatives that could cause problems trying to
cast a long down to an int.
== DETAILS
These changes fall into a few broad categories:
1. Explicitly undefine things we want to re-define due to conflicts with
the version of devkitpro we're using
2. Clean up hex format specifiers to use `%lx` or `%lX` when working with
long integers
3. Move variables inside the ifdef they're used in to squelch "unused variable"
messages
4. Add parenthesis to make Wii U shader declarations stop complaining
And then there's a weird "misleading indent" warning that I fixed by just
rewriting a block of code to use a switch statement instead of if-then-else.
These changes work fine on Wii U, but we'll need to keep an eye on CI/CD to see
if other platform builds break.
* re add this after failed rebase
* update

== DETAILS
- add a `WiiU` IntelliSense configuration for vscode
- rewrite the `net_listen.sh` script in python because the
shell script approach just isn't portable enough and doesn't handle
things like multiple network adapters gracefully at all.
Setting UNIX_CWD_ENV to 1 when compiling with the unix platform will make
the base path for the env the cwd. This is to be able to match the behavior on
Windows.
== DETAILS
File this one under "I'm not sure how this ever worked."
I mean, it did (in 1.8.8). I'm not sure what changed, but ultimately what I did was
a bunch of comparative testing against 1.8.8:
- I confirmed the packet data was still being read successfully
- I confirmed that the axis value being passed into pad->get_axis() had
not changed
- I confirmed the work done in `gamepad_read_axis_data()` was working the same
between 1.8.8 and master
With the only difference between 1.8.8 and current being the return value from
`gamepad_read_axis_data()`, I just rewrote the method to work properly, and
also fixed up the default axis mapping.
I tested this with a sixaxis controller and GCA, configuring the analog-to-digital
control override to use the right stick.
* Fix for warning and fix for incorrect comment
* Fixed contrast to be more correct - now scales from 0-10 linearly and behaves more the way you'd expect it to - changed name to ditch legacy settings users may have
Added ability to skip inverse tonemapper to the shader via the constant buffer using 'inverse_tonemap' - set to 0.0f to skip
Fixed potential bug when swapping between hdr and sdr and the bit depth not being set correctly
Fixed dx11's blend, rasterizer and topology states not being set to the sames when using hdr and leaving the menu - caused issues with PCSX2's Shadow of the Colossus
Added numerous helper functions to help create the correct values to colour the UI - normally the white UI elements should be rendered at paper white not max brightness for various reasons
* Fix stylistic issues - * Don't use camelcase for variables and function names * Use '(void)' for function declarations instead of () in C code * Declare variables at the top of a function or code block * Make sure functions that return a value always have a default return path that is not encapsulated by an else block * Use more unique names for retro_math functions which are less likely to overlap with other libraries' function symbols

* Define -DDONT_WANT_ARM_OPTIMIZATIONS for resampler sinc - this should
default to intrinsic versions
* Default to ARM NEON intrinsic codepath and make the ASM codepaths
optional by defining HAVE_ARM_NEON_ASM_OPTIMIZATIONS
* (Pkg/apple/Android) Take out ASM files being compiled in
* (3DS) Add bottom screen menu
-> User can save/load state on botom screen with thumbnail.
-> Call a save_state_to_file() when RAM state has data to write a disk.
-> If the bottom screen needs updating, swap the bottom framebuffers.
Add: SAVE/LODE STATE TO RAM
-> This is useful for devices with slow I/O
-> 3DS bottom save state use CMD_EVENT_SAVE_STATE_TO_RAM
-> 3DS bottom load state use CMD_EVENT_LOAD_STATE when RAM state has no data
-> 3DS bottom load state use CMD_EVENT_LOAD_STATE_FROM_RAM when RAM sate has data
* Rewrite path_get_state to retroarch_get_current_savestate_path
* Fix unterminated state_path
* Add HDR support
* Attempt to fix Mingw build and Metal builds
* (D3D12) Fix relative header includes
* Add missing hdr_sm5.hlsl.h
* (d3d12_common.c) Some C89 build fixes
* Fix MSVC build
* - Attempt to fix build on mingw/msys unix with dirty hack
- Fix shader compilation of hdr_sm5.hlsl.h on MSVC/Visual Studio -
the define was seen as an error and was causing the first pipeline
to error out
- Make sure we manually set handle of backBuffer to NULL
* Moving the release of the texture above the freeing of desc.srv_heap
and desc.rtv_heap solves the hard crashes on teardown/setup in RA -
it was crashing hard in d3d12_release_texture before
* Add HAVE_D3D12_HDR ifdef - needs to be disabled for WinRT for now
because of several things that are Windows desktop-specific right now
(GetWindowRect)
* Add dirty GUID hack - should work for both mingw/msys on Windows/Linux
as well as MSVC/Visual Studio (hopefully)
* Change HAVE_D3D12_HDR to HAVE_DXGI_HDR
* Move away from camelcase named variables
* Fix RARCH_ERR logs - they need a newline at the end
* d3d12_check_display_hdr_support - make it return a bool on return
and set d3d12->hdr.support and d3d12->hdr.enable outside of the
function
* (DXGI) Remove D3D12 dependencies from dxgi_check_display_hdr_support and
move it to dxgi_common.c instead
* (DXGI) move d3d12_swapchain_color_space over to dxgi_common.c and
rename it dxgi_swapchain_color_space
* (DXGI) move d3d12_set_hdr_metadata to dxgi_common.c and
rename it dxgi_set_hdr_metadata
* (DXGI) dxgi_check_display_hdr_support - better error handling?
* Fix typo
* Remove video_force_resolution
* (D3D12) Address TODO/FIXME
* (D3D12) Backport

rename it dxgi_hdr_uniform_t
* (D3D11) Add HDR support
* Add TODO/FIXME notes
* Cache hdr_enable in video_frame_info_t
* Update comment
audio_driver_sample/audio_driver_sample_batch - we can check
is_display_mode_switching to see if we're doing a fs/windowed toggle
(full teardown/setup), no audio should be processed at this point in
time
getter/setter functions - also finally take this opportunity to stop
setting framebuffer width/height/pitch for menu drivers that don't
use a framebuffer texture at all
with latest Xbox Series dashboard; DXGIResizeBuffers passing 0, 0 as
width/height is apparently problematic as it changes 0, 0 to 8,8
instead,
breaking the program
This fixes programs using /dev/uinput to create a virtual keyboard failing
to be detected on startup. Usual symptom is some sort of GPIO-based
controller that looks like a keyboard to the OS and can control
EmulationStation, but fails to work in-game unless you restart the program
while the game is running (in which case udev_input.c's hotplug code, which
was using the correct key, would pick it up).
promotion would lead to 'x' being a garbage value, leading to problems
when this value was passed to vkCmdSetViewport. This stops Vulkan
validation layers from complaining about it
* (Switch/libnx) remove dead code
* (Lakka/Switch/libnx) It was a mistake to include
switch_performance_profiles.h inside lakka.h, it was creating warnings
for nearly every file. Instead, it gets optionally included for the
files that need it
== DETAILS
After a bisect, the culprit was changing the gamepad interface from
returing a single button (bool) to multiple (int16).
The issue is that the Wii U gamepad (and presumably the Pro controller too)
have more than 16 buttons, which means some buttons get lost. Notably, L3 (18)
and R3 (17).
The solution: use int32 instead of int16.
I did a test build and confirmed that this change restores L3/R3 functionality
with the gamepad. Don't have a pro controller to test, but it should work too.
Wrong casting did read garbage data for numerical values on big endian platforms.
Numerical values are used for array/map lengths so this could easily cause random crashes during parsing but also later while using the data.
Use union to avoid strict aliasing warnings.
Correctly write map lengths between 16 and 65535 to just 2 bytes and not 4.
Fix writing of numerical values between -31 and -1.
Fix writing of numerical values less than 256 on big endian platforms.
Both INFO and DEBUGGING log functions were outputting [INFO] logs.
I switched the debug log function to output debug logs instead of info logs, and changed the output of debug logs from [VERBOSE] to [DEBUG]
This change makes the call to 'udev_enumerate_scan_devices' much faster.
In particular, for some bluetooth devices, this function may implicitly
read its battery's virtual file 'uevent', e.g.
/sys/devices/*/usb1/1-1/*/bluetooth/hci0/*/power_supply/hid-*-battery/uevent
Reading this file may (for unknown reasons) block up to 10 seconds.
Since udev_enumerate_scan_devices is called 4 times (for keyboard,
mouse, touchpad, and joypad) during startup this may cause a
considerable delay.
Limiting the scan to subsystem 'input' yields the same devices but makes
the scan faster and does not read 'uevent' of the input controller's
power_supply.
Fixed typo
added delay between winraw rect change to fix roslution changing issues.
added more comments
added delay reset
Fixed typo
updated comments
added RECT size to log
updated logging
The font backend provides only the alpha channel for a given glyph, but
we were sampling that channel for the r, g, b and a. Fix by hard-coding
the sampled colour to white - the actually desired colour is multiplied
in later.
The Ozone icons are small pngs, 46x46, while the XMB Monochrome icons
are 256x256, which do not look good on low-dpi screens when downscaled
so extremely.
Updated log defines to match SR upstream.

Fixxed buffer size bug
Added correct fractal scalling. only used when required.
Even if compiled with ANGLE, lets default to d3d11 since ANGLE is calling D3D anyway.
That makes cores like PCSX2 and Duckstation boot proper with default settings, ANGLE cores still switching automatically.
- Fixes the Encore Mode string being misread by the Crowdin scripts.
- Minor change on MENU_ENUM_SUBLABEL_CRT_SWITCH_HIRES_MENU's structure (by @DisasterMo, he asked me to do so).
Second attempt at manually updating the translations from Crowdin. Built locally today.
Huge thanks to @DisasterMo for helping with the required edits on the python files (not uploaded to avoid messing with guoyunhe's setup)!
Moving the comment that breaks the script to a better position.
We are assuming that device has its backlight device symlinked to /sys/class/backlight/backlight so this should be stated.
Additionally any hardcoding should be disallowed and the symlink should be always used.

Fixed typo
This addresses 2 issues:
1. Input controllers report battery supplies.
That causes wrong charging status or capacities if they report percentages instead of levels.
Such supplies normally report scope attributes that report Unknown or Device type of power supply.
If reported value is System or the attribute is missing, it's considered a System supply and used.
2. Various systems have backup batteries.
That causes the wrong capacity to be reported depending on order of node creation.
This is addressed by keeping track of these and calculating an average.
Most DEs have the tendency to lose focus when monitor is getting swapped or the resolution changes.
That causes X11 exiting fullscreen and setting a lower resolution to fit desktop.
Pushing the window back to top, automatically fixes that and X11 enforces fullscreen again and new max resolution.
Additionally, XConfigure events are now checked and preferred over XGetWindowAttributes.
That saves several to hundreds μs per frame.
it with a single snprintf call under the assumption it will probably
still be faster
- In some instances, the first time the string was manipulated on was
with a strlcat call instead of an strlcpy - change this
At best, this results in junk on screen, at worst we could crash.
It's not a perfect fix, there's still a scenario where this breaks: when
fast forwarding is enabled, and we swap from vsync-off to vsync-on when
pausing/rendering the menu, the swap chain (and textures) gets
recreated, and the frame data is completely lost.
There isn't much we can do about this without more intrusive changes,
such as preserving the textures inbetween swap chain reinits.
Reworked the test a bit to make it separate from RA's build system for
simplicity.
Reworked the testing a bit to ensure coverage is properly generated.
This needs more work since it's rather manual and verbose
- Core info cache can now be enabled/disabled on all platforms via a new `Settings > Core > Cache Core Info Files` option
- Core info cache file has been renamed from `.cache` to `core_info.cache` (i.e. it is no longer a 'hidden' file on Unix platforms, so can be deleted easily)
- The core info cache file is now compressed (rzip) to further reduce disk IO
- The presence of a `core_info.refresh` file in the core info directory will force a one-time refresh of the info cache. This file is generated automatically when toggling on the `Cache Core Info Files` option, and we will also add it to core info file packaging such that updating info files (either manually or via the online updater) will force a refresh
- The core info cache no longer contains 'core is locked' and 'firmware missing' data fields; these are 'dynamic' properties that must be determined at runtime
- The 'core is locked' status is now determined on core info intialisation by parsing the core directory listing, rather than by performing indivdual 'lock file exists' checks. This minimises file IO, and greatly improves performance on devices with slow storage
- While parsing the core info cache file, we now avoid unnecessary `strdup()`s when adding entries to the resultant cache list
- Memory leaks (potential and real) have been fixed, and safety checks added
- Build errors have been fixed

- GFX: Enable automatic configuration of 'VSync Swap Interval'
- GFX/FONT/FREETYPE: Use FT_New_Memory_Face - first read it from file to memory beforehand -

- NETWORK/NETPLAY: Initialize client's allow_pausing to true
- NETWORK/NETPLAY: Disable netplay for unsupported cores - with stateless mode being disabled for now, there is no reason not to include this. Refuse to initialize netplay when the current core is not supported (no proper savestates support)
- NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY: Ensure fixed width ints on packet struct
- NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY: Support for IPv4 tunneling (6to4)
- NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY/TASKS: Netplay/LAN Discovery Task refactor - aims to prevent blocking the main thread while awaiting for the LAN discovery timeout; This is accomplished by moving the whole discovery functionality into its task and using a non-blocking timer to finish the task. Also fixes discovery sockets not being made non-blocking, which could cause the main thread to hang for very long periods of time every pre-frame.
- NETWORK/NETPLAY/TASKS: Find content task refactor - fixes many issues along the way, including a couple of nasty memory leaks that would leak thousands of bytes each time the task ran. It also expands the original concept by matching currently run content by filename (CRC matching is always performed first though).

- SHADERS: Shader Preset Loading of Multiple additional #references lines for settings
- SHADERS: Shader Load Extra Parameter Reference Files - this adds the ability to put additional #reference lines inside shader presets which will load additional settings. The first reference in the preset still needs to point at a chain of presets which ends with a shader chain, and subsequent #reference lines will load presets which only have parameter values adjustment. This allows presets to be made with a modular selection of settings. For example with the Mega Bezel one additional reference could point at a preset which contained settings for Night mode vs Day mode, and another reference could point to a preset which contained settings for how much the screen should be zoomed in.

For example, take a struct like this:
For example, take a struct like this:
typedef struct
{
size_t capacity;

size_t has the biggest alignment here, so 'struct playlist_config_t' inside a struct should come before or after size_t.

inside a struct should come before or after size_t.
*** BEST PRACTICES ***
* If we have pointers and size variable pairs, it's best to interleave them to increase the probability they go in the same cacheline. It also makes the code more readable, that these two variables are connected.

Stack size
----------
You have to assume that stack size is going to be limited in RetroArch. Some game consoles (and other embedded systems) might have a default stack size as low as 128Kb or less. Be conservative with stack size but don't try to put very small structs on heap either [to avoid memory fragmentation among other things].

RetroArch. Some game consoles (and other embedded systems)
might have a default stack size as low as 128Kb or less.
Be conservative with stack size but don't try to put very
small structs on heap either [to avoid memory fragmentation
among other things]. A balancing act here is necessary.
Be mindful that heap allocations are slow compared to stack.
Functions
---------
- Avoid doing small getter/setter functions. We want a function
to justify its function call overhead by doing a significant
body of work. Small one-line getter/setter functions for what
is predominantly C-style structs is not useful, plus it leads
to people thinking this function is more complex than it
actually is, thus obfuscating the sourcecode instead of it
being easier to read.
If you can find examples in the codebase that violate this
guideline, do not hesitate to point them out to us.
Variable declaration
--------------------
For C source files, we have to insist you stick to the following:
- Declare variables either at the start of a function or the start
of a code block, depending on the scope they need.
- Do not do initial for loop declarations. Refer to the bulletpoint above:
either declare them at the start of the function, or at the start
of the code block.
Not doing this would break compilation on platforms where we are compiling
these C source files in C89 compatibility mode. If such issues occur in pull
requests, we have to request that it be fixed.
VLA (Variable Length Array)
---------------------------
Do not use VLAs (Variable Length Array) in C source files. These are not
C89-compliant.
Miscellaneous
-------------
- Brace usage follows "Allman style". The brace associated with a control statement is placed on the following line,
indented to the same level as the control statement.
Statements within the braces are indented to the next level.
- A single statement block must not include brackets (unless the block uses a macro that expands into multiple lines)
- If possible, avoid 'while (true)' and use 'for (;;)' instead
If you are a developer and want to contribute to the development of RetroArch, please read this.
If you have found a bug and want to submit a minor patch or a bug report, please read this as well.
If you are a developer who wishes to contribute to the development of _RetroArch_; or if you have
found a bug and wish to submit a minor patch and/or bug report, please read this document.
# Submitting a bug report
When submitting a bug report, make sure that the bug is local to RetroArch.
A bug in a libretro core or something deemed to be external is likely to be closed very fast.
If you still suspect a bug in RetroArch, make sure to test with several cores to make sure.
Active discussions happen on our [Discord](https://discordapp.com/invite/27Xxm2h), mostly within
the_Programming_ channel category. We value discussions that happen in real time around
these contributions.
If you have troubles building RetroArch on Linux/BSD/OSX, make sure to paste shell output of ./configure,
as well as config.log and shell output of make. If building on Windows, just paste shell output of make.
Please do note that contributors to _RetroArch_ do such contributions within their spare time.
We do prefer to keep a professional and non-aggressive atmosphere around the project, along
with any disagreements to be settled professionally without insults, name calling, or otherwise.
If there are any issues, we are willing to have discussions about it.
If the issue occurs during runtime, make sure to paste RetroArch's verbose log.
If using Phoenix frontend, you can find log in (File -> Show Log) after running.
In console, make sure to run with verbose (-v) flag.
## Submitting Bug Reports
# Pull Requests
Outside contributions are generally only accepted in the form of a pull request. The process is very simple.
Fork RetroArch, make your changes, and issue a pull request on GitHub. This can all be done within the browser.
The changes are reviewed, and might be merged in. If the pull request isn't acceptable at the time,
note that it's possible to continue pushing up commits to your branch.
Bug reports in _RetroArch_ may fall into one of two categories:
If you want to develop a larger feature,
we'd like to discuss this first (ideally on IRC) so that you don't risk developing something
that won't be merged. A pull request with a proof-of-concept is fine, but please indicate so.
* _RetroArch_ itself, the user interface and API around all of the various cores.
* Individual_Core_, of which interact with _RetroArch_.
When submitting a bug report, ensure that the report is submitted to the correct repository.
For _RetroArch_ itself, it is done by reporting a bug within the
[RetroArch](https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch) repository. For other cores, please use
the search function within the [libretro Organization](https://github.com/libretro) on
GitHub. Issues that are specific to a core and not _RetroArch_ are likely to be closed very
quickly. If an issue is suspected with _RetroArch_, please make sure to test with multiple
cores to be sure that is is not isolated.
If the issue occurs during runtime, please paste the verbose log output:
* If using the _Pheonix_ interface, the log will be in _File_ -> _Show Log_.
* If using the main interface, enable verbose logging with _Settings_ -> _Logging_ ->
_Logging Verbosity_. Ensure both _Log to File_ and _Timestamp log Files_ is enabled.
* Otherwise, run _RetroArch_ with the verbose (`-v`) flag.
If the error happens during compilation and/or building, paste the output of `./configure`
and `make` accordingly. If using an IDE, please paste any of the errors and log output.
## Submitting Pull Requests
Any and all contributions should be submitted through Pull Requests on
[GitHub](https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/pulls). The process requires that you fork the
repository, make the appropriate changes, and then open a pull request on _GitHub_. If your
pull request is for a proof-of-concept then please indicate as such.
Your pull request will then be reviewed. There may be comments and requests for additional
changes to be made. It may also be possible that the changes will not be accepted. Otherwise, it
may be merged in when it is fully approved. The final approval of merge requests is at the
discretion of the project.
If you want to develop a larger feature or make broad changes, please do join our
[Discord](https://discordapp.com/invite/27Xxm2h) server to discuss. The discussion is
necessary to prevent the possibility of major work being done which will not be accepted at all.
## libretro API
If you wish to add functionality to libretro's API, it can take some time to merge in, because changes
to libretro API will affect other projects as well, and we highly value API/ABI stability.
Features will only be added when deemed *necessary* for a concrete libretro core to function properly.
Features will not be added on basis of hypothetical libretro implementations.
# Coding style
Having a consistent code style throughout the code base is highly valued.
Please look through the code to get a feel for the coding style.
A pull request may be asked to fix the coding style before submission.
In other cases, a pull request may be followed up with a "style nit commit".
If you wish to contribute additional functionality to _libretro_'s API, there are considerations
that must be accepted. Please note that because this API affects multiple different projects, we
highly value and require API and ABI stability and backwards-compatibility. Due to this
requirement, there will be additional scrutiny in reviews for this added functionality.
## Non-obvious things:
- Code should be both C89 and ISO C++ compatible. This dual requirement is for XBox360 and MSVC in general. Think of it as a C++ compatible subset of C99.
- Warnings are not allowed (-Wall). Make sure your code is warning-free. Note that warning sensitivity differs a bit across compiler versions.
- Using deprecated APIs is discouraged.
Any and all features will be added only when **necessary** for an existing _libretro_ core to
properly function. Hypothetical implementations of _libretro_ are not considered.
# Copyright Headers and AUTHORS
If you have contributed to a part of a source file (a chunk of code that's written by you),
you should add yourself to the copyright header in that file.
If you have contributed significantly
(a feature, a contribution you can "name", e.g. "Added audio driver foo"), you should add yourself to AUTHORS file.
We'd like your full name and email, and which features you have been part of.
## Coding style
# IRC
Active development happens on IRC. (#retroarch @ irc.freenode.org)
We value discussing things in "real-time".
We highly value a consistent code style throughout the entire code base, please make sure you look
through the existing code to get a feel for the coding style. When submitting a pull request, it may
be asked to fix any coding style issues before submission. In other cases, there may be a follow-up
pull request making the code style consistent.
# Commit Access
Contributors who show a track record of making good pull requests over time will eventually get commit access to the repo.
This typically happens when the "overhead" of looking through pull requests over time becomes a burden.
For full guidelines please see the [Coding Standards](https://docs.libretro.com/development/coding-standards/).
Some non-obvious things to be aware of:
- Code should be both C89 and ISO C++ compatible. This is a requirement for XBox 360 and MSVC to
properly build. Think of it as a C++ compatible subset of C99.
- There must be no warnings in your code (enabled by `-Wall` for GCC compilers), do also note that
different compilers may produce different warnings.
- Avoid using deprecated APIs, these will be removed in the future at some point.
## Copyright Headers and AUTHORS
If you have contributed a chunk of source code that is written to you, you should add yourself to
the copyright header in the file. If you have made a significant contribution you should add
yourself to the `AUTHORS` file, adding your full name, e-mail, and the feature you worked on.
