- remapping analogs to buttons works 100%
- remapping analogs to other analogs still messed up for some reason
- need to reset input of the original axis in input_driver.c still
== DETAILS
Whereas the last commit had a hack (that disabled the wiimote
driver in the process), this has.. well, a *different* hack that
allows pads to register in any order.
Note that due to the initialization routines, the gamepad will still
likely always get slot 0. Not sure if this can be overridden via config
or not.
== TESTING
Tested locally with GC adapter
== DETAILS
I've created the concept of a hid_driver_instance_t which is basically
a central place to store the hid pad driver, hid subsystem driver,
the pad list, and the instance data for the above in a central location.
The HID pad device drivers can use it to perform HID operations in a
generic manner.
This is more-or-less a pause point so I can catch up with upstream.
== TESTING
Haven't tested this yet. Compiles without warnings though!
== DETAILS
RetroArch's general HID drivers are intended as a full-on substitute for
other input drivers such as XInput, DInput, SDL, etc. The Wii U port is,
to my knowledge, the first case of heterogenous input drivers working
concurrently.
As such, I've moved things around:
- The HID driver source is moved into the wiiu/input/ directory alongside
the joypad subdrivers.
- We no longer use the input_hid_init_first() method to instantiate; instead
we just init the wiiu HID driver directly.
- The HID pad driver and HID subsystem driver enjoy a tighter coupling,
mainly having to do with the initialization of the joypad connections
list, because there's no way to inform the HID driver's init() method
how many slots to allocate.
== TESTING
Will test in a moment, but at least it compiles cleanly. ;)
== DETAILS
I did a minimalist edit of the HID thread that stripped out all
HID* syscalls, and this stopped the crashing. I then re-added just
the HIDSetup() and HIDTeardown() calls, and the crash came back.
This smells like an OS bug. To work around it, I've put the
HIDSetup() and HIDTeardown() calls into the app init/shutdown
section, so they only get called once in the application lifetime
and not each time the input driver is initialized.
== DETAILS
We discovered that the controller_patcher code was causing
the WiiU to intermittently crash when switching ROMs.
Changes:
- Completely extricates the controller_patcher code
- Create a skeleton wiiu_hid driver
- Wire up the build system to build/link it successfully
== TESTING
Has not been tested. Probably doesn't crash, since the
skeleton driver is just a copy of the null driver.
