Every Statistics counter, the projection copies and the widescreen ratio
averages were only written since the debug UI went; the counters bumped
per primitive, per triangle and per pixel in the software rasterizer.
The widescreen heuristic keeps only the two vertex counts it compares,
from one projection/viewport ratio per flush instead of up to three.
GetCPRegInfo, the CP register describer, has no caller.
GetBPRegInfo and the GetXF*Info, GetXFMemName and GetXFMemDescription
functions formatted register writes for the FIFO analyzer's UI, which
the core does not have; nothing called them.
Every std::mutex, lock_guard, unique_lock, scoped_lock,
condition_variable, call_once and semaphore left in Source/Core is
replaced by a lock-free design:
- Input: the device list, control bindings, stick calibration and
default device are published snapshots read under a quiesce; a
rebind requested while another thread is rebinding is handed to
that thread instead of waited for.
- WiimoteReal: the pool thread owns the slots and runs commands from
an MPSC queue; the active Wiimotes are atomic slots.
- EXI/SI/IOS devices: socket and packet traffic goes through SPSC
rings or MPSC handoffs owned by one thread; USB scanning publishes
its device list, and libusb transfers drain through a CallGate.
- Memory cards: the flush thread applies change records queued by
the CPU thread.
- Custom assets: loads are scheduled as a published batch with an
atomic cursor, results come back over an MPSC stack, and busy
assets are skipped and retried.
- D3D state and GL program caches use insert-only atomic maps
(Common/AtomicHashMap.h).
- Logging appends with O_APPEND / FILE_APPEND_DATA; FatFs reports
busy instead of waiting; per-socket WSAStartup/WSACleanup.
Deleted as unused by the libretro core: the profiler, the FIFO
recorder, the volume verifier, the touch InputOverrider and the
GameCube adapter's libusb path.
Drop DolphinAnalytics and Common/Analytics along with every game-quirk,
game-start, performance-sample and GPU-bug-override report, the
Main.Analytics settings, and the Android opt-in dialog, settings
entries, JNI hooks and session-timestamp tracking that only fed it.
DriverDetails loses its to_string helpers and stored driver name,
which only built the bug-override report.
This fourth part of my series of patches to get rid of unsafe uses of
GetPointer takes care of the "easy" cases in VideoCommon. Three uses of
GetPointer now remain in Dolphin: VertexLoaderManager, TextureInfo, and
the software renderer's TextureSampler.
Instead, we make the event take a reference to the system and then pass
it in when the event is triggered.
This does introduce two other accessors, but these are much easier to
refactor out over time, and without modification to the existing event
interface.
This caused us to update the indirect texture information in shaders more often than we needed to, which probably doesn't matter in practice since it's only used in ubershaders and copyyscale and stride are generally only updated before EFB/XFB copies, which generally will have other changes afterwards.
As far as I can tell, it has nothing to do with the mipmap/half_scale functionality, but does change based on the width of the destination texture (and the destination texture is half the width if half_scale is set). The comment that was there (which dates back to the initial megacommit) seems to not have accounted for the width aspect; it was first used as an actual stride in bbbe898839 (the first commit that used it at all).
The whole ownership model was getting a bit of a mess, with a some
of special cases to deal with. And I'm planning to make it even more
complex in the future.
So here is some upfront work to convert it over to reference counted
pointers.
This also changes the behavior for the invalid gamma value, which was confirmed to behave the same as 2.2.
Note that currently, the gamma value is only used for XFB copies, even though hardware testing indicates it also works for EFB copies. This will be changed in a later commit.
This increases accuracy, fixing the white rendering in Major Minor's Majestic March. However, the hardware backends can only have one viewport and scissor rectangle at a time, while sometimes multiple are needed to accurately emulate what is happening. If possible, this will need to be fixed later.
