Makes Graphics -> Hacks -> Skip EFB Access from CPU enabled by default. Some GPU drivers stall when EFB access occurs in games where EFB is not used. Most games that require this setting set to 'true' already have this defined in their game inis.
Recently we have been getting some requests to make the existing vsync
setting available in the Android GUI:
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13650https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-vsync-toggle-for-android
I don't quite understand why enabling the vsync setting is helpful when
Android already enforces vsync, but I guess having the option available
doesn't hurt. I'm putting the setting under Advanced, unlike in
DolphinQt, since there's no clear reason why the typical user would want
to use this setting.
This reverts the revert commit bc67fc97c3,
except for the changes in BaseConfigLoader.cpp, which caused the bug
that made us revert 72cf2bdb87. PR 12917
contains an improved change to BaseConfigLoader.cpp, which can be merged
(or rejected) independently.
A few changes have also been made based on review comments.
Dolphin has been using edge-to-edge rendering for a little while now,
but it has required a bit of manual work. Now that edge-to-edge is
becoming something expected of apps in Android 15, there's a nicer API
we can use.
Tested on Android 8, 11 and 13, with no changes in behavior noted.
So far, Dolphin hasn't been able to run on Android devices that use a
16 KiB page size. 16 KiB page sizes are a very new Android feature that
no phones have shipped with so far, so we're still compatible with the
phones that exist out there, but let's get this fixed before phones
start shipping with 16 KiB page sizes.
Because I couldn't get Android Studio's emulator to work, I haven't been
able to confirm that this change actually makes Dolphin fully compatible
with devices that use a 16 KiB page size. But I have confirmed that this
doesn't break anything on a regular 4 KiB page size device.
To fix the crash in input device sensor handling, we should look up
Sensors using structural equality. Unfortunately, Sensor.equals
implements referential equality, and HashMap doesn't let us provide a
custom comparator. Because the number of sensors is relatively small,
and because we have a reason to keep a sorted list of sensors around
anyway, let's switch from HashMap to ArrayList.
This reverts commit 72cf2bdb87.
SYSCONF settings are getting cleared when they shouldn't be. Let's
revert the change until I get proper time to figure out why it's broken.
Some pieces of code are calling IsRunning because there's some
particular action that only makes sense when emulation is running, for
instance showing the state of the emulated CPU. IsRunning is appropriate
to use for this. Then there are pieces of code that are calling
IsRunning because there's some particular thing they must avoid doing
e.g. when the CPU thread is running or IOS is running. IsRunning isn't
quite appropriate for this. Such code should also be checking for the
states Starting and Stopping. Keep in mind that:
* When the state is Starting, the state can asynchronously change to
Running at any time.
* When we try to stop the core, the state gets set to Stopping before we
take any action to actually stop things.
This commit adds a new method Core::IsUninitialized, and changes all
callers of IsRunning and GetState that look to me like they should be
changed.
Right now, we assign a versionCode to each Android build of Dolphin by
counting the total number of git commits made. This has worked fine so
far, but it won't work as-is for the new release process.
Let's say we're currently on commit 20000. If we want to create a
release under the new release process, we would create a release branch,
add a new commit on it that updates the release name in CMake files and
so on, and create a tag for that commit. The Android build of this
release commit would get the version code 20001. However, the master
branch is also going to get a commit with the version code 20001 sooner
or later, and this commit would be an entirely different commit than
commit 20001 on the release branch. This isn't much of a problem for
people downloading Dolphin from dolphin-emu.org, but it's a big problem
for Google Play, as Google Play doesn't allow us to upload two builds
with the same version code.
This commit makes us calculate the Android version code in a new way:
The number of commits times two, and if the current build isn't a
release build, plus 1. (We check whether the current build is a release
build by checking whether there's a tag for the current commit.)
With this new version code scheme, the release commit described in my
example would get the version code 40002, and the master commit would
get the version code 40003. This lets us upload both corresponding
builds to Google Play, and also lets the user switch from the release
build to the development build if they would like to. (Under normal
circumstances, Android forbids installing a build with an older version
code than the currently installed build. Therefore, whether the 1 is
added for release builds or for development builds is a decision with
consequences.)
It was possible for sAlertMessageLock.notify() to be called before
sAlertMessageLock.wait(), causing Dolphin to deadlock. In particular,
this was guaranteed to happen if displayAlertMsg was called from the UI
thread while the emulation activity is being destroyed, because
runOnUiThread runs the passed-in anonymous function immediately when
called from the UI thread.
By replacing Object.wait/Object.notify with Semaphore.acquire/
Semaphore.release, it no longer matters what order the methods are
called in.
Because SettingViewHolder is used in RecyclerViews, we have to
explicitly unset STRIKE_THRU_TEXT_FLAG when we don't want it, otherwise
it might be left over from when the SettingViewHolder was representing
a different setting.
This PR simply exposes the tapserver options in Serial Port 1 on Android. They already exist and work, but are not selectable. I've tested the tapserver options myself with Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II and they work fine.
This implements the GameCube modem adapter. This implementation is stable but not perfect; it drops frames if the receive FIFO length is exceeded. This is probably due to the unimplemented interrupt mentioned in the comments. If the tapserver end of the connection is aware of this limitation, it's easily circumvented by lowering the MTU of the link, but ideally this wouldn't be necessary.
This has been tested with a couple of different versions of Phantasy Star Online, including Episodes 1 & 2 Trial Edition. The Trial Edition is the only version of the game that supports the Modem Adapter and not the Broadband Adapter, which is what made this commit necessary in the first place.
This expands the tapserver BBA interface to be available on all platforms. tapserver itself is still macOS-only, but newserv (the PSO server) is not, and it can directly accept local and remote tapserver connections as well. This makes the tapserver interface potentially useful on all platforms.
Google Play's policies require us to tell the user the size of any large
download.
The size seems to vary by just a megabyte or two across regions in my
testing, so I'm listing a rough size for all the regions.
I'm also taking the opportunity to shorten the message to make it easier
to read.
