* 🎵 Fast forward audio resampling. Solves #15160.
Previously, we avoided doing any resampling while fastforwarding based
on the assumption it was impossible to make the audio not crackle due to
both flush-to-flush timing fluctuations and timer accuracy.
However, turns out this is not the case. The audio doesn't "crackle" per
se when the timing fluctuates! It's just that the sounds don't make
sense since the time compression and decompression caused by the flush
time fluctuations mess with the audio consistency.
To work around that, we introduce a running average flush delta time
that makes sure the audio is both resampled to approximately the correct
rate and consistent.
This was tested in two settings:
- Limited rate fastforwarding (2x-4x)
- Unlimited fastforwarding
In both cases it seems to work well, but with unlimited fastforwarding
it's just high pitched and annoying, so this is probably the most useful
in the 2x to 4x range.
* Move declartion to support C89
* resampling ratio upper and lower bounds
* Add toggle for speeding up audio
As mentioned in https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/14954,
audio device selection works only if respective functions are
implemented in audio driver.
Added sink listing and selection. Common menu code takes care of the rest.
The closing info box sound (NOTICE_BACK) plays if you have the regular notice sound on, implemented generally.
audio_driver_mixer_play_menu_sound(i) will now stop sound i before playing it, so when you for example, cancel in rapid succession, it will properly play all canceling sound effects instead of not doing anything if the sound is already playing.
This scrolling implementation is a lot more general than the first one, to the point where RGUI plays all the correct sounds without any special additions. However, the Ozone sidebar scrolling or category switching in XMB or MaterialUI are still handled inside their driver .c files.
This implementation also fixes an issue where if wraparound was disabled the sound would still play if you held on a direction. I've also fixed it manually for XMB category switching, since it's still handled there individually (turns out, Ozone sidebar and MaterialUI categories just don't respect the no wraparound option, so there's no need to implement a fix there as well)
using roughly the same implementation for the ok/notice/cancel sounds, but i've made an exclusive function for scrolling since it's going to be called a lot more than those sounds
* * Use flags for rarch_state
* Get rid of ^M linebreaks in retroarch_types.h
* Buildfixes for consoles
* (audio driver) use flags instead of bools
* (video) Use flags instead of bools
* Rewrite input driver state bools into flags
as deprecated.
* Use fill_pathname_join_special in the vast majority of cases where
we can ensure out_path is a new empty string
* Get rid of some extension concatenation with strlcat where encountered
* Some general cleanups with NULL termination of strings that get immediately
passed to strlcpy/strlcpy-adjacent functions
* (joypad_connection) Small optimizations -
* Turn functions static where possible
* Hose strlen call out of loop
* (input_driver.c) General cleanups:
* Some small code/style nits
task_screenshot.c:
* Move widget callback function for screenshots to task_screenshot.c
(file_path.c):
* Turn get_pathname_num_slashes into static function
* path_linked_list_free - always returns true, so get rid of return value
* path_linked_list_new - fix function signature
* path_get_archive_delim - do not NULL-terminate string, already done by strlcpy later on
General:
* Slight optimizations - use int/size_t for loop counter variable instead of unsigned
* Take advantage of fact that strlcpy already NULL-terminates, so don't do this explicitly
outside if we're just going to end up calling strlcpy/fill_pathname_join on it anyway
Enable it as it does not freeze. This provides an audio backend that
can report its buffer status, allowing auto frame skip to work on cores
that support it.
Do not build or include alsathread as it results in choppy audio.
Similarly, leave tinyalsa disabled as it plays back at a higher pitch
and is also choppy.
Change the default sample rate to 32000Hz as the previous default of
32730Hz is derived from the 3DS.
* Added newlib changes
* Add action to launch PPSSPP simulator
* Remove legacy config for the stack and heap
* Add pthread
* Simplify kernel_functions and improve references to HAVE_KERNEL_PRX
* Add some flags
* Improve audio init/deinit
* Improve exit by clicking home
* Add CI for PSP1
* Update PSP.yml
* Fix old osx condition
Current code assumes that osx < 10.12 is equivalent to ppc osx. It's not
true as Leopard x86 is still < 10.12 but not ppc. As xcode compiles fat
binaries it includes osx x86 and compilation fails.
* Disable crtswitchres when no c++11 is available
Crtswitchres altually needs c++11. Since it's not that important to make
it compatible with lower c++, just disable if no c++11 is available
* Don't use firstObject on old Mac OS X.
It was introduced in 10.6, so on old ones just implement it ourselves
* Compile osx-ppc frontend
* osx-ppc: Build a fat binary
On 10.6 i386 xcode apparently refuses to build a pure ppc.
Settle for a fat binary.
* Netplay Stuff
## PROTOCOL FALLBACK
In order to support older clients a protocol fallback system was introduced.
The host will no longer send its header automatically after a TCP connection is established, instead, it awaits for the client to send his before determining which protocol this connection is going to operate on.
Netplay has now two protocols, a low protocol and a high protocol; the low protocol is the minimum protocol it supports, while the high protocol is the highest protocol it can operate on.
To fully support older clients, a hack was necessary: sending the high protocol in the unused client's header salt field, while keeping the protocol field to the low protocol. Without this hack we would only be able to support older clients if a newer client was the host.
Any future system can make use of this system by checking connection->netplay_protocol, which is available for both the client and host.
## NETPLAY CHAT
Starting with protocol 6, netplay chat is available through the new NETPLAY_CMD_PLAYER_CHAT command.
Limitations of the command code, which causes a disconnection on unknown commands, makes this system not possible on protocol 5.
Protocol 5 connections can neither send nor receive chat, but other netplay operations are unaffected.
Clients send chat as a string to the server, and it's the server's sole responsability to relay chat messages.
As of now, sending chat uses RetroArch's input menu, while the display of on-screen chat uses a widget overlay and RetroArch's notifications as a fallback.
If a new overlay and/or input system is desired, no backwards compatibility changes need to be made.
Only clients in playing mode (as opposed to spectating mode) can send and receive chat.
## SETTINGS SHARING
Some settings are better used when both host and clients share the same configuration.
As of protocol 6, the following settings will be shared from host to clients (without altering a client's configuration file): input latency frames and allow pausing.
## NETPLAY TUNNEL/MITM
With the current MITM system being defunct (at least as of 1.9.X), a new system was in order to solve most if not all of the problems with the current system.
This new system uses a tunneling approach, which is similar to most VPN and tunneling services around.
Tunnel commands:
RATS[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Session) - 16 bytes -> When this command is sent with a zeroed unique id, the tunnel server interprets this as a netplay host wanting to create a new session, in this case, the same command is returned to the host, but now with its unique session id. When a client needs to connect to a host, this command is sent with the unique session id of the host, causing the tunnel server to send a RATL command to the host.
RATL[unique id] (RetroArch Tunnel Link) - 16 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to the host when a client wants to connect to the host. Once the host receives this command, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server, sending this command together with the client's unique id through this new connection, causing the tunnel server to link this connection to the connection of the client.
RATP (RetroArch Tunnel Ping) - 4 bytes -> The tunnel server sends this command to verify that the host, whom the session belongs to, is still around. The host replies with the same command. A session is closed if the tunnel server can not verify that the host is alive.
Operations:
Host -> Instead of listening and accepting connections, it connects to the tunnel server, requests a new session and then monitor this connection for new linking requests. Once a request is received, it establishes a new connection to the tunnel server for linking with a client. The tunnel server's address and port are obtained by querying the lobby server. The host will publish its session id together with the rest of its info to the lobby server.
Client -> It connects to the tunnel server and then sends the session id of the host it wants to connect to. A host's session id is obtained from the json data sent by the lobby server.
Improvements (from current MITM system):
No longer a risk of TCP port exhaustion; we only use one port now at the tunnel server.
Very little cpu usage. About 95% net I/O bound now.
Future backwards compatible with any and all changes to netplay as it no longer runs any netplay logic at MITM servers.
No longer operates the host in client mode, which was a source of many of the current problems.
Cleaner and more maintainable system and code.
Notable functions:
netplay_mitm_query -> Grabs the tunnel's address and port from the lobby server.
init_tcp_socket -> Handles the creation and operation mode of the TCP socket based on whether it's host, host+MITM or client.
handle_mitm_connection -> Creates and completes linking connections and replies to ping commands (only 1 of each per call to not affect performance).
## MISC
Ping Limiter: If a client's estimated latency to the server is higher than this value, connection will be dropped just before finishing the netplay handshake.
Ping Counter: A ping counter (similar to the FPS one) can be shown in the bottom right corner of the screen, if you are connected to a host.
LAN Discovery: Refactored and moved to its own "Refresh Netplay LAN List" button.
## FIXES
Many minor fixes to the current netplay implementation are also included.
* Remove NETPLAY_TEST_BUILD
* Add intrinsic NEON versions for float_to_s16/s16_to_float courtesy
of davidgfnet
* Define -DDONT_WANT_ARM_OPTIMIZATIONS for resampler sinc - this should
default to intrinsic versions
* Default to ARM NEON intrinsic codepath and make the ASM codepaths
optional by defining HAVE_ARM_NEON_ASM_OPTIMIZATIONS
* (Pkg/apple/Android) Take out ASM files being compiled in
Previously we would wait on the condition variable even in the non-blocking case.
This improves fast-forward performance massively and brings JACK in line
with other backends in that regard.
Set USE_CTRULIB_2=1 to build with libctru 2.0. When unset, this code
is compatible with the older toolchain.
Some 2.0 changes addressed rare problems in earlier versions:
- Save / restore stack pointer for init / exit
Otherwise, it could be outside of the range we deallocate.
- Run aptMainLoop in the audio driver to react correctly to sleep events
Other changes for 2.0:
- Remove ninjhax1 -- requires outdated APIs that have been removed
- Switch from __sync_arbiter to syncArbitrateAddress
- Use implicit gxCmdBuf
- Use gpuPresentBuffer for double buffering
- turn blocking variable into nonblocking in line with other audio drivers
- blocking codepath would do numerous conditional checks on
w->buffer, w->exclusive, w->blocking during a loop iteration - get rid
of this
