* Added -fno-strict-aliasing to the ever growing list of gcc optimizations that can potentially cause perfectly good C code to generate entirely broken results.
* Removed the preferred-stack=2, since this branch *should* run fine without it now.
* Have Release builds in Linux SIGKILL when encountering an unexpected SIGSEGV.
* Fixed some deadlock issues with the new console logger (it introduced cancel points, which is a good thing! unless you're the EE recompiler and you swallow up any attempt by GCC to cancel a thread)
* Compilation error fixes.

* Added timeBeginPeriod() to improve the Win32 kernel scheduler resolution (improves sleep accuracy and thread responsiveness)
* hackfixed some code that made exiting pcsx2 "slow" sometimes.

* Implemented setjmp/longjmp method of escaping recompiled code, circumventing the deadly pitfalls of the g++ exception mess.
* Use longjmp to jump to a "safe" location (outside recompiled code) for suspending and canceling the SysCoreThread (see StateThreadCheck_LongJmp)
* I'm the stack daddy mack. That's right. Uh huh. Uh huh.
* Test for m_detached in PersistentThread::IsSelf, since Linux likes to recycle thread handles in a hurry (like, as in, consecutively)
* Fix a deadlock in the Consoole Log (seems to be GTK+ specific, and in fact I'm pretty sure wxApp->Yield() isn't thread safe and thinks it's recursive even when it's not)

Done:
* EEcore aligns stack on entry and performs routine checks of ESP and EBP integrity.
* Dispatchers are recoded using the PCSX2 Emitter.
Todo:
* Convert all C-code function calls from the recompiler to use the new aligned stack setup.
* Implement stack-alignment checks and emitter-based dispatchers for the IOP.

* Added TimedLock to MutexLock
* Use MutexLock::TimedLock as a replacement for some sloppy semaphore use in SysCoreThread and PersistentThread.
* Minor fixes to thread cleanup when exiting the App
* Added some extra deadlock protection to the blocking Wait and Lock functions for Mutexes and Semaphores.
* Moved MutexLock and Semaphore implementations into their own files.

* Fixed and added better Emulation/System menu updating. Suspend/Resume is more consistent, and Reset grays itself out after being used.
* Entering plugin configurations auto-suspends the emulator.
* Changing plugins in the Configuration PAnel takes effect now without a restart.
* Added preliminary support for an ExtensibleConfirmation Dialog box (contains a sizer you can add content to, and also has an optional "[x] Do not show this again" checkbox).
Bugfixes:
* Added some mutex protection to cdvdNewDiskCB; "just in case."
* Resolved several recursion and deadlock scenarios when (very!) rapidly suspending, resuming, and resetting the emu.
Developments / Code Cleanups:
* Renamed SysCoreThread ExecutionModes: Suspend/Resume are now Opened/Closed (which more accurately reflects the fact they opena nd close the plugins, and helps avoid ambiguity with the "Paused" state).
* Added Exception::ThreadTimedOut, which is now thrown from Semaphore::Wait when recursive wxApp::Yield() calls are detected, and a deadlock occurs (basically cancels the current action which, most of the time, allows for full recovery).
* Major Threading namespace cleanups, documentations, etc.
* Removed wxScopedArray (scopedarray.h) and replaced it with a better implemeneted ScopedArray class.
* Removed toUTF8 class, which I only added a couple weeks ago because I didn't realize wxCharBuffer had an implicit typecast to (char*).
* Implemented more Source/Listener events for Pcsx2App. CoreThread events are sourced properly now, and added SettingsApplied and SettingsLoadSave Sources.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2010 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed EBP push/pop stuff from the recExecute of the R5900 and R3000A both (not needed anymore since we disabled EBP in iCore).
* Moved the legacy j8ptr and j32ptr buffers to iCore, since they'll go obsolete at the same time iCore does; and nothing outside PCSX2 references them.

Fixed: More savestate slowness, and less savestate memory hogging.
SPU2-X: Fixed crash bug on using savestates while suspended.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1994 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Switched the SysCoreThread to a static (fully persistent) thread.
* Added some listeners for when the CoreThread status changes
* fixed some slowness in savestates, and the emu will now stall until savestates complete, if you try to exit too quick (avoids savestate corruption)

* Completely new assertion macros: pxAssert, pxAssertMsg, and pxFail, pxAssertDev (both which default to using a message). These replace *all* wxASSERT, DevAssert, and jASSUME varieties of macros. New macros borrow the best of all assertion worlds: MSVCRT, wxASSERT, and AtlAssume. :)
* Rewrote the Console namespace as a structure called IConsoleWriter, and created several varieties of ConsoleWriters for handling different states of log and console availability (should help reduce overhead of console logging nicely).
* More improvements to the PersistentThread model, using safely interlocked "Do*" style callbacks for starting and cleaning up threads.
* Fixed console logs so that they're readable in Win32 notepad again (the log writer adds CRs to naked LFs).
* Added AppInit.cpp -- contains constructor, destructor, OnInit, and command line parsing mess.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1950 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Re-enabled function-level linking in the shared properties sheets (applies to debug and devel builds, and is ignored in release builds). Can't remember why it got disabled in the first place, but whatever errors it was causing seem to be gone now.
* Removed the wxWidgets 2.9/3.0 copy of wxScopedPtr (wx/scopedptr.h), since we have a new superior implementation of our own.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1949 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Rewrote Savestate code, fixed lots of stuff in PersistentThread, and renamed most "Emu"s to "Sys".
* Removed wxScopedPtr and whipped up our own ScopedPtr that doesn't use boost's fail-style function names (and made it more thread-safe).
* Handling exceptions across threads: Added Clone() and Rethrow() methods to BaseException, and added a Rethrow() to PersistentThread.
* Go rid of AppInvoke macros (those were nasty!)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1929 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented a combination static link and dynamic link system; threads still benefit from DLL-level thread management, but speed-critical actions (semaphore and mutex locks) can now inline their "accelerated" interlocks properly. Should be a nice speedup.
* Implemented a highly optimized pthread_testcancel(), that typically performs its test in a single cycle. :)
* Disabled static mutexes. They aren't needed in C++ code, and reduce mutex locking overhead nicely.
* Use intrin.h for Interlocked functions, instead of pthreads' built in ones.
* Reverted my previous commit, since TLS isn't safe in DLLs. (oops!)
* Disabled pthread_spin API, it's not entirely cross-platform and shouldn't be used anyway (bad threading model for modern computing)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1925 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also added suggested interface for plugins for whenever the plugin apis are updated.
