Dolphin emulates GeckoCodes by fiddling with the CPU state when a
VI Interrupt occurs. The problem with this is that we don't know
where the PC is so it's non-deterministic and not necessarily
suitable for use with the codehandler.
There are two options: Patch the game like Gecko OS either directly
or using HLE::Patch, or use a trampoline so we can branch from any
PC even if it would otherwise not be valid. The problem with Gecko OS
patches is there are 10 of them and they have to be configured
manually (i.e. Game INIs to would need to have a [Core]GeckoHookType
property).
HLE_Misc::GeckoReturnTrampoline enables the Code Handler to be
entered from anywhere, the trampoline restores all the registers that
had to be secretly saved to the stack.
If the installation fails because codehandler.bin is missing or
unusable then Dolphin will try again every single frame even though
it's highly unlikely a disk file will have changed. Better to just
fail once then only try again when the active code set is changed.
Suppresses generating 60 log messages per second.
Turns out one of the magic numbers was very magic. The gameid is
an ad-hoc comm protocol with HLE_Misc to control the number of times
the ICache is reset.
The code table builder cuts off the end of codes that won't fit
after already writing part of it. That seems quite unlikely to
work the way anyone would find useful since the codes can contain
actual PPC instructions.
The active codes vector cannot safely be used outside the mutex,
move the lock out into RunCodeHandler. s_code_handler_installed was
also racing against SetActiveCodes since it's being written both
inside and outside the lock.
General cleanup. Add s_ prefixes, use constexpr, remove C casts.
Executing PPC code inside an external events callback is a bad idea.
CoreTiming::Advance does not support recursion properly which will
cause timing glitches. The interpreter has a slice length hack that
counters this but without it this would cause a 20000 cycles time
skip. It isn't clear what this was supposed to accomplish that just
changing the current PC would not. Changing the PC works fine.
When standby mode is enabled, this causes games to ES_Launch the system
menu instead of directly asking IOS (the STM more precisely) to shut
down, which prevents graceful shutdown from working
(it'll appear to hang).
Dolphin never supported WC24 standby mode anyway, so this shouldn't
cause any issues. (This should be reverted if and when WC24 standby is
implemented…)
This adds support for triggering the power event (in the STM), so that
stopping emulation first triggers a shutdown event, which notably gives
emulated software time to save game data (issue 8979) and clean up
SYSCONF (to disconnect Wiimotes and update their state in the SYSCONF).
On the first press, the stop button/hotkey/whatever will trigger a STM
power event. On a second try, we will forcefully stop emulation, just
like how it was working before.
There was as far as I know no reason to put everything in the header.
Separating the declaration from the implementation reduces build
times in case the implementation is updated without changing
any declaration.
This is needed because for some reason the WSI for NV Vulkan drivers
doesn't return VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DATE_KHR, so there is no other way to know
that a resize has occured apart from polling, which is a poor solution for
X11 (since it is blocking).
