the intent is to replace the haphazard scheduling and finger-crossing associated with saving/loading with the correct and minimal necessary wait for each thread to reach a known safe location before commencing the savestate operation, and for any already-paused components to not need to be resumed to do so.
This branch reduces the number of useless state flushes in the video
emulation layer by checking whether a BP/XF change will have an effect
or not. Greatly reduces the number of GL calls per frame.
Thanks to degasus for his help!
When a game writes the same value that was already configured to a BP
register, Dolphin previously flushed the GPU pipeline and reconfigured
the internal video state (calling SetScissor/SetLineWidth/SetDepthMode).
Some of these useless writes still need to perform actions, for example
writes to the EFB copy trigger or the texture preload registers (which
need to reload the texture from memory).
This adds an "Analyzer" tab to the fifoplayer dialog which allows to conveniently browse through all register pokes that are being sent by the game each frame.
There's also a search function, but it doesn't work all that well for anything but simple searches at the moment. However, I'm merging this anyway since I'm not sure if I'm going to finish this.
Note that due to recent fifo changes, it's not yet possible to run fifoplayer in dual-core mode.
please test for regressions, speed and for other issues fixed, as a example, the black color in water splash in super mario galaxy are fixed with this rev.
please as soon as yo find a bug let me know.
a little code cleaning to avoid duplicated execution of AlphaPreTest and a little correction to some comments from the previous commits.
this change must behave exactly like last revision, if something is broken please let me know
to marcosvitali.
Added an external exception check when the CPU writes to the FIFO. This allows
the CPU time to service FIFO overflows. Fixes random hangs caused by FIFO
overflows and desyncs like in "The Last Story" and "Battalion Wars 2". Thanks
to marcosvitali for the research.
Added some code to unlink invalidated blocks so that the recompiled block can be
linked (speed-up).
This release still fixed the hangs produced by fifo overflow without sacrifice
performance. For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now
is fluid 30/60.
Fixed possibles random hangs in DC mode.
Fixed hangs in DC mode in (Simpsons, Monkey Island, Pokemon XD, etc)
Implemented accurate management of Pixel Engine Interrupts. Now the GPU loop
is stopped when a PE Interrupt needs to be managed and resumed when Pixel Engine
finish.
Fixed Metroid Prime 3 and 2 desync. And other games with desync because of
FIFO Reset. That happens because FIFO_RW_DISTANCE_HI must be written first, for checking
fifo.CPReadWriteDistance == 0, so some fifo resets was not managed in the right
way.
Fixed Super Monkey Ball in some cases when the game write the
WriteReadDistance need to be safe like the SafeCPRead.
Improved the CheckException for the GatherPipe writes in JIT, now only the
External Exceptions are processed.
Fixed definitely Pokemon XD in dual core mode. This game is doing something
not allowed. It attach to CPU the same fifo attached to the GPU in multibuffer
mode. I added a check to prevent overwrite the GPU FIFO with the CPU FIFO. If
the game do that on breakpoint the solution can fail.
Fixed ReadWriteDistance calc when CPRead > CPWrite.
Added Token and Finish cause to GP Jit checking.
Additional cleanup in CommandProcessor.
Fixes issue 5209
Fixes issue 5055
Fixes issue 4889
Fixes issue 4061
Fixes issue 4010
Fixes issue 3902
This fix is not related with the previous commits, but the previous commits help me to see that because in the new scenery SMB was hanging. May be in the past also doesn't boot some times because of that.
Please Test FZero boot also. Thanks.
The external exceptions in dolphin are checking frequently but is different to real HW, so sometime the game is in a loop checking GPU STATUS, the exceptions doesn't checked, and the game hang.\
For solve this I need a trick: still waiting for the exception handler be linked but if CommandProcecsor is reading the GPStatus, resume this.
This fixed "TimeSplitters: Future Perfect" broken in the Revision c2e6fdf09f and surely others games.
That happens because FIFO_RW_DISTANCE_HI must be written first, for checking fifo.CPReadWriteDistance == 0, so some fifo resets was not managed in the right way.
I didn't test Metroid 2 desync reported in Issue 4336 but I think is the same.
About the flickering in MP2, I don't know for my is not related or yes, but you can test anyway.
Fixed Issue 3902
Well now the FIFO is 99.99% finished :)
- I've fixed hangs in DC mode in (Simpsons, Monkey Island, Pokemon XD, etc)
- I've implemented accurate manage of Pixel Engine Interrupts, now the GPU loop is stopped when a PE Interrupt needs to be managed and resume when Pixel Engine finish,
I think now, the Fifo in DC mode is more accurate than SC mode. :)
Time to close the big fifo Issue 3694 (snif), please if you have a possible fifo issue report this like a game issue.
I was working with Skid_AU together, especially thanks for him.
Test a lot all games, and compare the performance with the master maybe this accuracy has a cost (not a lot).
I think now the fifo is very stable, overflow fixed, random hang fixed, if you have a game with a hang with this rev and not in master please report this.
For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now is fluid 30/60.
Shuffle2: I've delete the hacky line, I think is not necessary anymore. Additional some clean in CommandProcessor.
Please test The Last Story and others games affected in the previous commits and give me a feedback.
PS and VS making. Untested and won't work for now.
Add in program shader cache files.
Readd NativeVertexFormat stuffs.
Add in PS and VS cache things.
SetShaders in places.
Fixed EFB cache index computations in OpenGL renderer.
The previous computation was very likely to go out of array bounds,
which could result in crashes on EFB access.
Also, the cache size was rounded down instead of up. This is a problem
since EFB_HEIGHT (528) is not a multiple of EFB_CACHE_RECT_SIZE (64).
- Fixes all (I hope) BBox-related unknown pointer crashes.
- Fixes wrong BBox values with Frame Skip on (and the resulting unknown pointer crashes).
- Fixes a small oversight on the change I made to the ISO Properties dialog.
This should also be a (very very little) bit faster than the previous version.
Should fix most graphical issues with Paper Mario: TTYD and Super Paper Mario. Fixes issue 360.
Since only those two games seem to require BBox support, and as per ector's suggestion, BBox is only enabled for those two games.
BBoxes and Display List Caches don't get along too well, causing Paper Mario: TTYD to hang during certain effects where BBoxes are used. For now, I disabled DList Cache for the Paper Mario games, hopefully both will be compatible in the future.
zcomploc is a feature of the BP which switch depth test from before the alpha
test to after the alpha test. This way, transparent fragments are written to
the depth buffer too.
The current implementation is quite hacky and does not cover all cases but is
enough to fix problems in a lot of game. A complete implementation would
require a multipass rendering method and is attempted in the
zcomploc-experimental branch.
According to testers feedback, fixes bugs in the following games:
- Baten Kaitos
- Baten Kaitos Origins
- 007: Everything or Nothing
- Ty the Tasmanian Tiger
- Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3
And probably other games too.
Conflicts (because of new-shadercache-uids):
Source/Core/VideoCommon/Src/PixelShaderGen.cpp
In previous revisions of Dolphin, changing texture generation settings (via
GX_SetTexCoordGen for example) did not regenerate the vertex shader and flush
the vertices. Adding this flush should fix texture problems in a few game, for
example in Superman: Shadow of Apokolips:
Before: http://i.imgur.com/mHmfb.jpg
After: http://i.imgur.com/2ThES.png
- don't load shader cache from disk in d3d9/11 if shader debugging is enabled (we won't have any info about the source shader code otherwise, etc)
- dump shader source codes on safe UIDs mismatch
Thanks to LordMark and [SS] for reporting those to me ;)
some little corrections in dlist cache code, i thing they will not have effect in the remaining issues but now the code behaves more correctly in some situations.
i discover the solution for the remaining issues bur requires some changes in the vertex translator so will work on them after the upcoming Release.

- showing shader errors by default
- using Native as internal resolution
- using EFB to Texture by default
- ignoring EFB format changes by default (turns out r7436 made this in Super Mario Sunshine unnecessary anyway :P)
Any game which depends on other settings has that specified in the game ini, so I think this should be fine.

Note: Newest nVidia drivers break Dolphins 3D (270.xx), not sure why yet, gonna ask around. It really confused me though when trying to fix this issue, spent at least an hour trying to figure out what the hell was going on. I eventually realised a build I knew worked in 3D was having issues...

Also, if the render window size changes while frame dumping, scale the resulting video to prevent clipping on linux. This is a complete fix for issue 4316 on linux. I don't know how to implement this on windows though.

Hotkeys now work when running 3D Vision. You've just got to select the render window first (as in click on the fullscreen image), don't ask me why, it's something to do with RendererHasFocus in Frame.cpp. Annoyingly, escape crashes the emulator and the screenshot button doesn't do anything, though I guess any other hotkey should be working. I wouldn't usually commit this but I remember someone really wanting to be able to connect their Wiimote while in 3D, so I figured I might aswell.

It now works in the debug builds, but not in release builds for some reason. I'm not used to big projects like this so it's probably something obvious that I'm missing. Exclusive full screen mode seems to need the fullscreen resolution for the backbuffer when the DX device is created, so I used adapters[adapter].resolutions[f].xres and yres to get that, but in release builds, that gives me the windowed resolution (in debug it give me the fullscreen res, like I believe it's supposed to), which it reallly doesn't like.
It's not a difficult fix probably, but I've been staring at my monitor in confusion for too long now and need to get to bed. If anyone wants to test, you can still enable the 3D Vision option, it just wouldn't be 3D (obviously).

With wxWidgets 2.9.2 now in Externals, SCons was the only
external dependency other than Xcode and building just SCons
from Macports caused a fair mount of extra stuff to be built
unnecessarily, so just include a copy of scons-local.
Always build wxWidgets from Externals which allows us to get
rid of the home-grown autoconf machinery in SconsTests.
The main use case for args.cache was the wxconfig option,
which is no longer relevant after the above changes and
caching options has a lot of potential for confusion,
especially since other build systems don't tend to do this,
so we no longer do it now.

Second:
A experiment. implemented parallelization in texture decoding using openmp. is most a experiment to test the performance in different os/plataforms. in my system (windows x64 amd 1055t) give a speedup in large textures, but i tested in in intel dual core and gives a slowdown. o i limited the use for large textures and cpus with more than 3 cores.
please test an let me know if it improves or degrades the speed.
please for linux and osx user. to enable this you will have to enable your compiler support for openmp to test this code.

- ReImplementing Single Core Mode like Dual Core Mode Style.
- Stage 1: My goal is, we have the Fifo, CommandProccessor code the more clear, maintenible and documented possible. When I quit dolphin I want any developer can continue with the work only reading the code.
* Big Refactoring: A lot of functions was changed the names, and modularized.
Now the FifoLoop and CatchUpGPU does not exist, was replaced by RunGpu() and RunGpuLoop().
The general idea is modeling the code like the real HW. The fifo is only a buffer where the Write Gather Pipe write the commands and from the Graphic Processor read these.
* Big Clean UP a lot of obsolete code and comments was deleted, like DcFakeWachDog, "Fifo very soon hack", etc.
In the stage 2, I will refactoring more code doing emphasis in the division of CommandProcessor, Fifo, Gpu Emulation. Beside I will comment all functions and variables in the code (Don't worry I will ask for English help for this part ;) )
Please test a lot SC mode and DC mode :)
Thank you so much for testing always and the patience. I don't like broke your favorite game but... you must believe me this part is very sensible, I only try to contribute for have a better and stable dolphin emulator.

Changes:
* Allow events to be scheduled when the emulator is not running. This allows the save state event to be added before the emulator starts.
* Removed the Audio back-end init flag from the save state. This value should not be saved as it is not data relevant to guest machine.
* Allow a recording to be started at any time (apart from when a recording is already being made).
* Updated the status bar and title bar when an on-screen message is shown
* Removed the saving of PEToken from the save state as the FIFO will save this information
* Added a couple Pixel Engine interrupt states to the save state
* Added the copyright notice to the GCPadStatus.h file.
This function is preliminary. Let us know of any bugs you find or any UI quirks.

This allows ALL settings in the gfx configuration dialog to be adjusted _per game_ in a more user-friendly way than before.

- This game read the CPRead pointer when the GP is processing data and after detach the fifo and attach again an use this pointer for continue, so implement fifo.SafeCPReadPointer pointer.
- fifo.SafeCPReadPointer is updated when (FAKE_GetFifoEndPtr() - g_pVideoData) == 0) to have a pointer without GFX Commands Cut in the beginning of 32 block.
- Reset video buffer when the CPReadWriteDistance is written by the software.

- In the Command Processor Control Register when GPReadEnable is OFF, wait until the fifo lopp finish with thi actual 32 bytes block. This is necessary to have Safe Disabble GP Read in this way AbortFrame is performed by the software, beside this can help to have accurate GPReadEnable OFF.
Please test Metroid Prime 1/2, Guilty Gear XX, X men gc, SMG, and shuffle you can test Harry Potter Prince for WII. :)

I think that isFifoBusy bring better sync with VI (video interface) because the CPU emulated threads are waiting for DrawDone in BP Register. So, I do some modifications.
1) Rename "IsFifoBusy" by "isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone"
2) Only activate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone when bFF_GPLinkEnable is true in fifo loop "Inmediate mode" that is because in theory this drawsync function is using in this mode.
3) Deactivate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone also in SetFinish in PixelEngine, beside when 32 block is finish.
Please regression in yours games thats can bring some FPS more above all with VPS frame limiter ON (Auto, 60, 50, etc).
- Fix waiting in AbortFrame(), please test mp1/mp2 is fixed again.

and just operate on lists of object files instead.
This helps with LTO since LLVM/clang LTO is completely broken
by static libraries. It also helps identify symbol clashes
between components like the former plugins.
Many linkers also expect static libraries to form a strict DAG
which turns out be a difficult rule to uphold in practice,
especially since some of our platforms aren't picky about this.
LTO builds currently appears to crash at runtime because of
the static wx libs.

This WILL temporarily break the Linux and MacOSX builds but should be easy to fix.
Things left to do:
* The UI on the new Audio tab for the LLE/HLE choice is ugly
* At times the code still look "plugin-y" and needs cleanup
* The two plugins should be merged further. DSPHLE should use the emulated memory etc of DSPLLE as much as possible, so that simply saving the DSPLLE state is enough. This would also bring the possibility of savestate compatibility between the two plugins.

GX_TF_RGBA8 texture decoder optimized with SSE2 producing a ~68% speed increase over reference C implementation.

~25% speed improvement in decoding GX_TF_RGB5A3 textures which aren't used very much. I thought it would help for movie playback but I misled myself. Video playback has nothing to do with this texture format.
Next I'll see if I can knock out some of these other texture decoders. Byte swizzling I'm sure can somehow be accomplished using _mm_unpacklo_epi8 trickery, so that'd be another big win I hope.

TextureDecoder.cpp: merged two functionally identical decode5A3RGBA and decode5A3rgba methods.
OpcodeDecoding.cpp and DLCache.cpp: optimization for GX_LOAD_XF_REG. The PSUHFB solution sounds better for SSSE3, but this is a small win for the default case.

1) What is the FIFO? The fifo is a ring queue for write (CPU) and read (GPU) the graphics commands.
2) What is the Brakpoints? The breakpoint is the FIFO mark to allow parallel work (CPU-GPU) When the GPU reached the breakpoint must stop read immediately until this Breakpoint will be removed for the CPU.
3) What is an overflow? The CPU write all room FIFO possible, and like a ring overwrite commands not processed yet.
4) ¿Why you have an overflow? In theory should not have an overflow never because the fifo has another mark (High Watermark) When the CPU Write reach this mark raise a CP interruption and the FIFO CPU WRITES should stop write until distance between READ POINTER AND WRITE POINTER will be equal to another mark (LO Watemark to prevent and overflow.
5) ¡So if impossible why you have overflows? Simple, the CP interruption is processed later and the Overflow happens. (there is a lot of theories about this)
6) ¿Why is no so simple like when CPU WRITE POINTER is near to the end of the FIFO only process pending graphics command?
Because when this happens sometimes we are in BREAKPOINT and is IMPOSIBLE process the graphics commands.
- This HACK process the pending data when CPU WRITE POINTER is 32 bytes before the end of the fifo, and if there is a Breakpoint force the situation to process the commands and prevent an overflown.
In theory you have not see "FIFO is overflown by GatherPipe nCPU thread is too fast!" anymore. But if you have a hang in game where you had this please read the NOTICE LOG in user\logs, I've added this message "FIFO is almost in overflown, BreakPoint" when the hack is activated. (I will delete this message very soon)
Good Luck!! PD: Shuffle sorry for the large commit description :P

- Disable color/alpha channels whenever the actual EFB format doesn't use them
Fixes issue 2826.

skid_au had implemented this in a previous revision and enabled it by default, but it caused glitches if STC wasn't set to "safe" (which kinda defeated the purpose since it slowed down stuff again).
Also renamed the "safe texture cache" to "accurate texture cache", since setting the "safe" texture cache to "safe" sounds kind of silly..

To do so I had to re-add the casting bloat removed in revision 6102. Also, for some odd reason the NVidia OpenCL drivers don't like 8 bit rotations, but are okay with 2, 4 bit rotations. These are apparently bugs in the NVidia drivers that are hopefully fixed in future versions.
Also, on linux make sure the TextureDecoder.cl file is copied from the shared data directory to the users directory.

- Improved the GP Register Status: now this is all the time from the fifo loop.
- Improved the Interrupts manage:
1) Removed All UpdateInturrupts from CommandProcessor Writes and Read.
2) now the CP interrupts are schedule from the video thread and the fifo loop waiting until this happens
3) considering Inmediate mode for the CP interrupts
3) Implemented Interrupt CP Cache State
4) Implemented only Overflow interrupt in GatherPipeCheck because this need to be detected quickly.
- Implemented Overflow handling like a real HW, when Hiwatermark interrupt happens this write ClearRegister with True en HI and False in LO (FifoIntReset) after that a Control Register is writed and the FIFO is processed to LO Watermark.
- Removed all ugly code from LO and HI watermark manage
- Removed all ugly code from BP manage
- Change >= by == in the BP clauses
- Removed speed hack (1024 chunk) for better GP Status Control.
- Commented GXSetGPFifo very soon hack
- Commented FackWatchDog hack
- Commented FIFO_RW_DISTANCE = WritePointer hack
This is the beginning and the base for the future., If this broke your favorite game my apologize, only report this and will try solve it. If you have a Overflown don't worry, I've implemented the real solution code using the Overflow Interruption only need continue working for a perfect protection. Why I did it? Because is preferable a accurate and clean fifo instead hack y fifo for improve that. Thanks to DONKO for you awesome Video Plug in and skid for the chatting. PD: I have 7-10 fps more in the star fox video. bye :P

Most of the code dealing with the LogTypes namespace was C which lead to a
lot of nonsensical casting, so I have dumbed LOG_TYPE and LOG_LEVEL down to
plain C even though the move of wiiuse into Source means we don't currently
call GenericLog from C.
Set logging threshold to MAX_LOGLEVEL at startup so debug builds will also
p rint debugging messages before the GUI is running.
For some reason the way we use SetDefaultStyle doesn't play nice with wx 2.9
so we just get the default black text on a black background. Using a gray
background works around that problem, but I found it to also be much easier
on the eyes so I have switched the background color on all versions.
