Update to v100r14 release. byuu says: (Windows: compile with -fpermissive to silence an annoying error. I'll fix it in the next WIP.) I completely replaced the time management system in higan and overhauled the scheduler. Before, processor threads would have "int64 clock"; and there would be a 1:1 relationship between two threads. When thread A ran for X cycles, it'd subtract X * B.Frequency from clock; and when thread B ran for Y cycles, it'd add Y * A.Frequency from clock. This worked well and allowed perfect precision; but it doesn't work when you have more complicated relationships: eg the 68K can sync to the Z80 and PSG; the Z80 to the 68K and PSG; so the PSG needs two counters. The new system instead uses a "uint64 clock" variable that represents time in attoseconds. Every time the scheduler exits, it subtracts the smallest clock count from all threads, to prevent an overflow scenario. The only real downside is that rounding errors mean that roughly every 20 minutes, we have a rounding error of one clock cycle (one 20,000,000th of a second.) However, this only applies to systems with multiple oscillators, like the SNES. And when you're in that situation ... there's no such thing as a perfect oscillator anyway. A real SNES will be thousands of times less out of spec than 1hz per 20 minutes. The advantages are pretty immense. First, we obviously can now support more complex relationships between threads. Second, we can build a much more abstracted scheduler. All of libco is now abstracted away completely, which may permit a state-machine / coroutine version of Thread in the future. We've basically gone from this: auto SMP::step(uint clocks) -> void { clock += clocks * (uint64)cpu.frequency; dsp.clock -= clocks; if(dsp.clock < 0 && !scheduler.synchronizing()) co_switch(dsp.thread); if(clock >= 0 && !scheduler.synchronizing()) co_switch(cpu.thread); } To this: auto SMP::step(uint clocks) -> void { Thread::step(clocks); synchronize(dsp); synchronize(cpu); } As you can see, we don't have to do multiple clock adjustments anymore. This is a huge win for the SNES CPU that had to update the SMP, DSP, all peripherals and all coprocessors. Likewise, we don't have to synchronize all coprocessors when one runs, now we can just synchronize the active one to the CPU. Third, when changing the frequencies of threads (think SGB speed setting modes, GBC double-speed mode, etc), it no longer causes the "int64 clock" value to be erroneous. Fourth, this results in a fairly decent speedup, mostly across the board. Aside from the GBA being mostly a wash (for unknown reasons), it's about an 8% - 12% speedup in every other emulation core. Now, all of this said ... this was an unbelievably massive change, so ... you know what that means >_> If anyone can help test all types of SNES coprocessors, and some other system games, it'd be appreciated. ---- Lastly, we have a bitchin' new about screen. It unfortunately adds ~200KiB onto the binary size, because the PNG->C++ header file transformation doesn't compress very well, and I want to keep the original resource files in with the higan archive. I might try some things to work around this file size increase in the future, but for now ... yeah, slightly larger archive sizes, sorry. The logo's a bit busted on Windows (the Label control's background transparency and alignment settings aren't working), but works well on GTK. I'll have to fix Windows before the next official release. For now, look on my Twitter feed if you want to see what it's supposed to look like. ---- EDIT: forgot about ICD2::Enter. It's doing some weird inverse run-to-save thing that I need to implement support for somehow. So, save states on the SGB core probably won't work with this WIP.

struct Expansion : Thread {
Update to v098r03 release. byuu says: It took several hours, but I've rebuilt much of the SNES' bus memory mapping architecture. The new design unifies the cartridge string-based mapping ("00-3f,80-bf:8000-ffff") and internal bus.map calls. The map() function now has an accompanying unmap() function, and instead of a fixed 256 callbacks, it'll scan to find the first available slot. unmap() will free slots up when zero addresses reference a given slot. The controllers and expansion port are now both entirely dynamic. Instead of load/unload/power/reset, they only have the constructor (power/reset/load) and destructor (unload). What this means is you can now dynamically change even expansion port devices after the system is loaded. Note that this is incredibly dangerous and stupid, but ... oh well. The whole point of this was for 21fx. There's no way to change the expansion port device prior to loading a game, but if the 21fx isn't active, then the reset vector hijack won't work. Now you can load a 21fx game, change the expansion port device, and simply reset the system to active the device. The unification of design between controller port devices and expansion port devices is nice, and overall this results in a reduction of code (all of the Mapping stuff in Cartridge is gone, replaced with direct bus mapping.) And there's always the potential to expand this system more in the future now. The big missing feature right now is the ability to push/pop mappings. So if you look at how the 21fx does the reset vector, you might vomit a little bit. But ... it works. Also changed exit(0) to _exit(0) in the POSIX version of nall::execute. [The _exit(0) thing is an attempt to make higan not crash when it tries to launch icarus and it's not on $PATH. The theory is that higan forks, then the child tries to exec icarus and fails, so it exits, all the unique_ptrs clean up their resources and tell the X server to free things the parent process is still using. Calling _exit() prevents destructors from running, and seems to prevent the problem. -Ed.]
