* Partially revert a change made in 69ceb95ddc.
The change caused the 'libretro_directory' config option to always
revert to the default value, which was not intended behavior.
Reported-by: Michael Cook
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_DATABASE_DIRECTORY environment variable.
This is a follow-up to commit 69ceb95ddc.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c
(libretro_database_directory): New variable.
(frontend_unix_get_env): Set DEFAULT_DIR_DATABASE to the value of
the LIBRETRO_DATABASE_DIRECTORY environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c: Likewise.
* configuration.c (config_load_file)
<libretro_database_directory>: New variable. Use the values of
the LIBRETRO_DATABASE_DIRECTORY environment variables instead of their
corresponding configured values, when set.
* docs/retroarch.6: Document.
* retroarch.c (retroarch_print_help): List supported environment
variables, and cross-reference the man page.
* platform_win32: Fix sizeof for DEFAULT_DIR_PLAYLIST.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c (frontend_win32_env_get): Check
the size of correct destination array.
* frontend: Honor the LIBRETRO_ASSETS_DIRECTORY environment variable.
This builds on 763fcd8267 ("unix, win32: Allow set the default
libretro_directory via environment variable") to also allow specifying
the assets directory via an environment variable.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c (frontend_unix_get_env)
<libretro_assets_directory> New variable. Use it to set
DEFAULT_DIR_ASSETS, when available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c (frontend_win32_env_get): Likewise.
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_DIRECTORY environment variable.
Until now, and unlike the defaut core directory, the default
core *info* directory would be hard-coded relative to the installation
directory. Honor the LIBRETRO_DIRECTORY environment variable the same
instead.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c (frontend_unix_get_env): Set
DEFAULT_DIR_CORE_INFO default to the value of the LIBRETRO_DIRECTORY
environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c (frontend_win32_env_get): Likewise.
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_AUTOCONFIG_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c
(libretro_autoconfig_directory): New variable.
(frontend_unix_get_env): Set DEFAULT_DIR_AUTOCONFIG to the value of
the LIBRETRO_AUTOCONFIG_DIRECTORY environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c: Likewise.
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_VIDEO_FILTER_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c
(libretro_video_filter_directory): New variable.
(frontend_unix_get_env): Set DEFAULT_DIR_VIDEO_FILTER to the value of
the LIBRETRO_VIDEO_FILTER_DIRECTORY environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c: Likewise.
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_VIDEO_SHADER_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c
(libretro_video_shader_directory): New variable.
(frontend_unix_get_env): Set DEFAULT_DIR_SHADER to the value of
the LIBRETRO_VIDEO_SHADER_DIRECTORY environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c: Likewise.
* platform: Honor the LIBRETRO_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* frontend/drivers/platform_unix.c
(libretro_system_directory): New variable.
(frontend_unix_get_env): Set DEFAULT_DIR_SYSTEM to the value of
the LIBRETRO_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY environment variable, if available.
* frontend/drivers/platform_win32.c: Likewise.
* configuration: Have environment variables override configuration.
Because the configuration file is systematically written when
RetroArch terminates, persisting any previous default/configured
value, setting the LIBRETRO_DIRECTORY, LIBRETRO_ASSETS_DIRECTORY, etc.
environment variables would not have an effect unless the
retroarch.cfg configuration file was cleared.
This seems to go against the common expectation that environment
variables are set by users to *override* the default behavior or
configuration of an application.
* configuration.c (config_load_file) <libretro_directory>
<libretro_assets_directory, libretro_autoconfig_directory>
<libretro_system_directory, libretro_video_filter_directory>
<libretro_video_shader_directory>: New variables. Use the values of
the LIBRETRO_DIRECTORY, LIBRETRO_ASSETS_DIRECTORY,
LIBRETRO_AUTOCONFIG_DIRECTORY, LIBRETRO_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY,
LIBRETRO_VIDEO_FILTER_DIRECTORY and LIBRETRO_VIDEO_SHADER_DIRECTORY
environment variables instead of their corresponding configured
values, when set.
* docs/retroarch.6: Document the environment variables honored and
their behavior.
* Less string copies
* Some general cleanups
* Add extra param to runloop_message_queue_push so we can pass size_t
of the message
* Consistent conventions for local variable usage for certain things
User slot (player #) and joypad driver port is by default the same, but
it can be changed either manually or automatically (reserved device).
Use the correct index for detecting values associated with the port.
Two new settings added to Settings / Input / Menu Control:
- disable left analog stick in menu navigation
- disable right analog stick in menu navigation
Since the corresponding logic is already a distinct logic flow in
input driver, no change was necessary to analog-to-digital settings
or the like.
* sort remaps by connected controller if option is enabled
* ensure dir name is valid based on input device name
* Fix comments
* Fix forbidden mixed declarations and code
* fixing build errors
* fix additional build warning/error
* Resolved code review change requests
* Changed strlcat to strlcpy as per recommendation
* Retrigger checks
* Use proper path separator.
* Ensure default value is toggled off.
* Ensure that gamepad device name is valid.
* Massive reduction in heap space allocation, going from settings struct
264kb to 119Kb
* Use NAME_MAX_LENGTH for base paths/names, etc
* Use DIR_MAX_LENGTH for directory sizes
* This change allows playlist icons to be replaced with Logos. the art is loaded to the Thumbnail Named_Logos folder. It is treated the same as other thumbnails for naming and for automatic download. There is a settings menu option to turn it on and off. It is off by default. This only applies to the xmb menu driver.
* Removed commented out code against the style guide.
* Code cleanup for C89 compatibitity
* Cleaned up errors from Automated CI.
* Cleaned up comments.
* Update gfx_display.c
change strcpy to strlcpy
* Update gfx_thumbnail_path.c
fix code formatting
* Update xmb.c
code formatting changes
Allow thumbnails (boxart, title, screenshot) to be loaded in any
other supported format as well, currently jpg, bmp, tga.
Support is for local thumbnails only, downloads are not changed.
PNG format is always preferred. Menu option added for control,
since trying for multiple thumbnail files may impact performance
on slow storage media.
A new input driver (test_input), similar to test joypad driver.
Takes its inputs from a json file provided in options. Supports
keyboard input and sensor input (accelerometer, gyroscope,
illuminance).
Remote Retropad extended with a sensor test screen.
For each player, 2 new options are added:
- a reservation type (no reservation, preferred, reserved)
- a reserved device name
When handling port - player assignments, reserved devices
will be assigned to the respective player port. If reservation
type is "reserved", no other device can take that port
automatically.
Reservation config option and matching function lifted from:

Test joypad driver was extended for more tests.
