Every JSON reader (Triforce card decks, dynamic input textures, graphics
mods and their per-game profiles) now pulls its file through rjson from a
VFS filestream and fills its structures as it parses, with no document
tree in between. JsonUtil and the vendored picojson go away, as does the
graphics mod serialization nothing called.
Move and scale actions take their X, Y and Z straight from the parsed
feature instead of re-reading a kept JSON value. rjson.c and rjson.h are
imported unchanged from libretro-common.
The texture hash, the CRC32 helpers, Adler-32 and the Ector hash are C;
the texture hash picks CRC32 or MurmurHash3 once with a branch instead
of calling through a function pointer each time, CPUDetect still
deciding which. The hashes are bit for bit the old ones, so cached and
saved hashes stay valid.
Flush passes the bound cache entries' texture names by pointer instead
of copying each into a new string, and SetConstants walks the mod
manager's action lists in place instead of gathering them into a new
vector. The projection-texture lookup builds its key on the stack and
finds it through a string_view hash, skipping it when no mod targets one.
XFStateManager's change ranges are plain int/bool arrays handed out by
pointer; the savestate bytes are unchanged.
Every file the core touches goes through libretro-common's filestream,
path and dirent layers, taken from RetroArch: vfs_hybrid opens local
paths with libretro-common's own implementation and hands URI paths
(and, on Android, anything a local open cannot reach) to the
frontend's VFS. File::IOFile and File::DirectIOFile sit on RFILE, and
FileUtil, FileSearch and the directory walks on path_stat, path_mkdir
and retro_opendir. Dolphin's fopen, POSIX and Win32 file code,
std::filesystem and std::fstream are gone, with the dual VFS paths and
the core option that chose between them.
Files opened for reading alone are memory-mapped where the platform
can: reads copy straight out of the page cache, DirectIOFile's offset
reads on one mapped object are thread safe, and GetMappedPtr(), View()
and Prefetch() lend and warm without a copy. Text files are read a
line at a time through File::LineReader, lent from the mapping or a
window refilled a block at a time, never a byte at a time; JSON is
parsed straight from the mapping. Ini files and the cheat file are
built in memory and written once, an ini only when it changed and
then atomically.
Both fed user-written GLSL to the backends at runtime, which the move to
bytecode emitted straight from the shader generators leaves no compiler
for. The frontend's own shader pipeline covers post-processing.
The presentation pass keeps a plain copy and the built-in correction
shader for output resampling, colour space and gamma correction and HDR
scaling, now compiled in rather than loaded from Sys/Shaders. The
graphics-mod system keeps its draw, EFB, projection and texture actions;
custom pipelines, materials, shader, mesh and sampler assets, the custom
constant buffers in every backend and the two mods built on them are
gone, along with the shader generators' custom-shader hooks.
Accomplished using `run-clang-tidy` with `performance-move-const-arg,performance-unnecessary-value-param,modernize-pass-by-value`.
Changed arguments to const references, removed them where inappropriate (e.g. sink parameters). Same with std::move.
Manually reviewed each change to make sure that it makes sense, and do something more appropriate if possible.
* Add a 'AfterEFB' function to graphics mod action that can return a Material
* Rename previous EFB graphics mod function to 'BeforeEFB' to differentiate from 'AfterEFB'
* Rename previous XFB graphics mod function to 'BeforeXFB' to mirror EFB
Yellow squiggly lines begone!
Done automatically on .cpp files through `run-clang-tidy`, with manual corrections to the mistakes.
If an import is directly used, but is technically unnecessary since it's recursively imported by something else, it is *not* removed.
The tool doesn't touch .h files, so I did some of them by hand while fixing errors due to old recursive imports.
Not everything is removed, but the cleanup should be substantial enough.
Because this done on Linux, code that isn't used on it is mostly untouched.
(Hopefully no open PR is depending on these imports...)
Fix some common anti-patterns with these data structures.
- You can dereference the iterator returned by `find` to access the
underlying value directly, without an extra `operator[]`/`at`.
- Rather than checking for an element before insertion/deletion, you can
just do the operation and if needed check the return value to
determine if the insertion/deletion succeeded.
In PPCTables.cpp, the code is currently unused so I was unable to test it.
In CustomPipeline.cpp, a pointer to member function cannot be used due to 16.4.5.2.1 of the C++ Standard regarding "addressable functions". https://eel.is/c++draft/namespace.std#6
In Fs.cpp and DirectoryBlob.cpp, these examples used projections in a previous iteration of this commit, but no longer do. Still, they remain in this commit because the PR they would actually belong to is already merged.
In NandPaths.cpp, the `std::initializer_list<char>` of illegal characters has been turned into a `char[]` (similar to the one in GameList.cpp).
The reverse iteration in ResourcePack.cpp seemed to provide no benefits, and doing without it it seemed to have no ill effects.
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.
Allows using keys that aren't directly std::string as the key. This lets
us use std::string_view for the incoming path name, making it more
flexible with other string types.
