Changelog:

  - processor/spc700: restored fetch/load/store/pull/push shorthand
    functions
  - processor/spc700: split functions that tested the algorithm used (`op
    != &SPC700:...`) to separate instructions
      - mostly for code clarity over code size: it was awkward having
        cycle counts change based on a function parameter
  - processor/spc700: implemented Overload's new findings on which
    cycles are truly internal (no bus reads)
  - sfc/smp: TEST register emulation has been vastly improved¹

¹: it turns out that TEST.d4,d5 is the external clock divider (used
when accessing RAM through the DSP), and TEST.d6,d7 is the internal
clock divider (used when accessing IPLROM, IO registers, or during idle
cycles.)

The DSP (24576khz) feeds its clock / 12 through to the SMP (2048khz).
The clock divider setting further divides the clock by 2, 4, 8, or 16.
Since 8 and 16 are not cleanly divislbe by 12, the SMP cycle count
glitches out and seems to take 10 and 2 clocks instead of 8 or 16. This
can on real hardware either cause the SMP to run very slowly, or more
likely, crash the SMP completely until reset.

What's even stranger is the timers aren't affected by this. They still
clock by 2, 4, 8, or 16.

Note that technically I could divide my own clock counters by 24 and
reduce these to {1,2,5,10} and {1,2,4,8}, I instead chose to divide by
12 to better illustrate this hardware issue and better model that the
SMP clock runs at 2048khz and not 1024khz.

Further, note that things aren't 100% perfect yet. This seems to throw
off some tests, such as blargg's `test_timer_speed`. I can't tell how
far off I am because blargg's test tragically doesn't print out fail
values. But you can see the improvements in that higan is now passing
all of Revenant's tests that were obviously completely wrong before.

Changelog:

  - added eight more 68K instructions
  - split ADD(direction) into two separate ADD functions

I now have 54 out of 88 instructions implemented (thus, 34 remaining.)
The map is missing 25,182 entries out of 65,536. Down from 32,680 for
v101.00

Aside: this version number feels really silly. r10 and r11 surely will
as well ...

Aforementioned scheduler changes added. Longer explanation of why here:
http://hastebin.com/raw/toxedenece

Again, we really need to test this as thoroughly as possible for
regressions :/
This is a really major change that affects absolutely everything: all
emulation cores, all coprocessors, etc.

Also added ADDX and SUB to the 68K core, which brings us just barely
above 50% of the instruction encoding space completed.

[Editor's note: The "aformentioned scheduler changes" were described in
a previous forum post:

    Unfortunately, 64-bits just wasn't enough precision (we were
    getting misalignments ~230 times a second on 21/24MHz clocks), so
    I had to move to 128-bit counters. This of course doesn't exist on
    32-bit architectures (and probably not on all 64-bit ones either),
    so for now ... higan's only going to compile on 64-bit machines
    until we figure something out. Maybe we offer a "lower precision"
    fallback for machines that lack uint128_t or something. Using the
    booth algorithm would be way too slow.

    Anyway, the precision is now 2^-96, which is roughly 10^-29. That
    puts us far beyond the yoctosecond. Suck it, MAME :P I'm jokingly
    referring to it as the byuusecond. The other 32-bits of precision
    allows a 1Hz clock to run up to one full second before all clocks
    need to be normalized to prevent overflow.

    I fixed a serious wobbling issue where I was using clock > other.clock
    for synchronization instead of clock >= other.clock; and also another
    aliasing issue when two threads share a common frequency, but don't
    run in lock-step. The latter I don't even fully understand, but I
    did observe it in testing.

    nall/serialization.hpp has been extended to support 128-bit integers,
    but without explicitly naming them (yay generic code), so nall will
    still compile on 32-bit platforms for all other applications.

    Speed is basically a wash now. FC's a bit slower, SFC's a bit faster.

The "longer explanation" in the linked hastebin is:

    Okay, so the idea is that we can have an arbitrary number of
    oscillators. Take the SNES:

    - CPU/PPU clock = 21477272.727272hz
    - SMP/DSP clock = 24576000hz
    - Cartridge DSP1 clock = 8000000hz
    - Cartridge MSU1 clock = 44100hz
    - Controller Port 1 modem controller clock = 57600hz
    - Controller Port 2 barcode battler clock = 115200hz
    - Expansion Port exercise bike clock = 192000hz

    Is this a pathological case? Of course it is, but it's possible. The
    first four do exist in the wild already: see Rockman X2 MSU1
    patch. Manifest files with higan let you specify any frequency you
    want for any component.

    The old trick higan used was to hold an int64 counter for each
    thread:thread synchronization, and adjust it like so:

    - if thread A steps X clocks; then clock += X * threadB.frequency
      - if clock >= 0; switch to threadB
    - if thread B steps X clocks; then clock -= X * threadA.frequency
      - if clock <  0; switch to threadA

    But there are also system configurations where one processor has to
    synchronize with more than one other processor. Take the Genesis:

    - the 68K has to sync with the Z80 and PSG and YM2612 and VDP
    - the Z80 has to sync with the 68K and PSG and YM2612
    - the PSG has to sync with the 68K and Z80 and YM2612

    Now I could do this by having an int64 clock value for every
    association. But these clock values would have to be outside the
    individual Thread class objects, and we would have to update every
    relationship's clock value. So the 68K would have to update the Z80,
    PSG, YM2612 and VDP clocks. That's four expensive 64-bit multiply-adds
    per clock step event instead of one.

    As such, we have to account for both possibilities. The only way to
    do this is with a single time base. We do this like so:

    - setup: scalar = timeBase / frequency
    - step: clock += scalar * clocks

    Once per second, we look at every thread, find the smallest clock
    value. Then subtract that value from all threads. This prevents the
    clock counters from overflowing.

    Unfortunately, these oscillator values are psychotic, unpredictable,
    and often times repeating fractions. Even with a timeBase of
    1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (one attosecond); we get rounding errors
    every ~16,300 synchronizations. Specifically, this happens with a CPU
    running at 21477273hz (rounded) and SMP running at 24576000hz. That
    may be good enough for most emulators, but ... you know how I am.

    Plus, even at the attosecond level, we're really pushing against the
    limits of 64-bit integers. Given the reciprocal inverse, a frequency
    of 1Hz (which does exist in higan!) would have a scalar that consumes
    1/18th of the entire range of a uint64 on every single step. Yes, I
    could raise the frequency, and then step by that amount, I know. But
    I don't want to have weird gotchas like that in the scheduler core.

    Until I increase the accuracy to about 100 times greater than a
    yoctosecond, the rounding errors are too great. And since the only
    choice above 64-bit values is 128-bit values; we might as well use
    all the extra headroom. 2^-96 as a timebase gives me the ability to
    have both a 1Hz and 4GHz clock; and run them both for a full second;
    before an overflow event would occur.

Tim Allen ca277cd5e8 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.

byuu says:

Changelog:
- (u)int(max,ptr) abbreviations removed; use _t suffix now [didn't feel
  like they were contributing enough to be worth it]
- cleaned up nall::integer,natural,real functionality
  - toInteger, toNatural, toReal for parsing strings to numbers
  - fromInteger, fromNatural, fromReal for creating strings from numbers
  - (string,Markup::Node,SQL-based-classes)::(integer,natural,real)
    left unchanged
  - template<typename T> numeral(T value, long padding, char padchar)
    -> string for print() formatting
    - deduces integer,natural,real based on T ... cast the value if you
      want to override
    - there still exists binary,octal,hex,pointer for explicit print()
      formatting
- lstring -> string_vector [but using lstring = string_vector; is
  declared]
  - would be nice to remove the using lstring eventually ... but that'd
    probably require 10,000 lines of changes >_>
- format -> string_format [no using here; format was too ambiguous]
- using integer = Integer<sizeof(int)*8>; and using natural =
  Natural<sizeof(uint)*8>; declared
  - for consistency with boolean. These three are meant for creating
    zero-initialized values implicitly (various uses)
- R65816::io() -> idle() and SPC700::io() -> idle() [more clear; frees
  up struct IO {} io; naming]
- SFC CPU, PPU, SMP use struct IO {} io; over struct (Status,Registers) {}
  (status,registers); now
  - still some CPU::Status status values ... they didn't really fit into
    IO functionality ... will have to think about this more
- SFC CPU, PPU, SMP now use step() exclusively instead of addClocks()
  calling into step()
- SFC CPU joypad1_bits, joypad2_bits were unused; killed them
- SFC PPU CGRAM moved into PPU::Screen; since nothing else uses it
- SFC PPU OAM moved into PPU::Object; since nothing else uses it
  - the raw uint8[544] array is gone. OAM::read() constructs values from
    the OAM::Object[512] table now
  - this avoids having to determine how we want to sub-divide the two
    OAM memory sections
  - this also eliminates the OAM::synchronize() functionality
- probably more I'm forgetting

The FPS fluctuations are driving me insane. This WIP went from 128fps to
137fps. Settled on 133.5fps for the final build. But nothing I changed
should have affected performance at all. This level of fluctuation makes
it damn near impossible to know whether I'm speeding things up or slowing
things down with changes.

- huge amounts of work on hiro/cocoa (compiles but ~70% of the

- fixed a masking error in my ARM CPU disassembler [Lioncash]

If you rename Boolean (it's a problem with an include from ruby, not
from hiro) and disable all the ruby drivers, you can compile an
OS X binary, but obviously it's not going to do anything.

It's a boring WIP, I just wanted to push out the project structure
change now at the start of this WIP cycle.

Tim Allen 4e2eb23835 Update to v093 release.

Changelog:
- added Cocoa target: higan can now be compiled for OS X Lion
  [Cydrak, byuu]
- SNES/accuracy profile hires color blending improvements - fixes
  Marvelous text [AWJ]
- fixed a slight bug in SNES/SA-1 VBR support caused by a typo
- added support for multi-pass shaders that can load external textures
  (requires OpenGL 3.2+)
- added game library path (used by ananke->Import Game) to
  Settings->Advanced
- system profiles, shaders and cheats database can be stored in "all
  users" shared folders now (eg /usr/share on Linux)
- all configuration files are in BML format now, instead of XML (much
  easier to read and edit this way)
- main window supports drag-and-drop of game folders (but not game files
  / ZIP archives)
- audio buffer clears when entering a modal loop on Windows (prevents
  audio repetition with DirectSound driver)
- a substantial amount of code clean-up (probably the biggest
  refactoring to date)

One highly desired target for this release was to default to the optimal
drivers instead of the safest drivers, but because AMD drivers don't
seem to like my OpenGL 3.2 driver, I've decided to postpone that. AMD
has too big a market share. Hopefully with v093 officially released, we
can get some public input on what AMD doesn't like.

updated switch statements to be consistent as well (but not in the
disassemblers, was starting to get an RSI just from what I already did.)

phoenix/{windows, cocoa, qt} need to be updated to use "string foo"
instead of "const string& foo", and after that, the major diffs should
be finished.

This archive is the first time I'm posting my copy-on-write,
size+capacity nall::string class, so any feedback on that is welcome as
well.

Tim Allen 94b2538af5 Update to higan v091 release. 
byuu says:

Basically just a project rename, with s/bsnes/higan and the new icon
from lowkee added in.

It won't compile on Windows because I forgot to update the resource.rc
file, and a path transform command isn't working on Windows.
It was really just meant as a starting point, so that v091 WIPs can flow
starting from .00 with the new name (it overshadows bsnes v091, so
publicly speaking this "shouldn't exist" and will probably be deleted
from Google Code when v092 is ready.)
