Currently, when immediately compile shaders is not enabled, the
ubershaders will be placed before any specialized shaders in the compile
queue in hybrid ubershaders mode. This means that Dolphin could
potentially use the ubershaders for a longer time than it would have if
we blocked startup until all shaders were compiled, leading to a drop in
performance.
9fa2470 changed how the ubershader setting is stored in INIs but didn't
update the Android GUI code to reflect that, so the setting in the
Android GUI has been broken starting with that commit.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/10947
- In D3D, shaders could be compiled on the main thread, blocking
startup.
- Reduced the latency between a pipeline being requested and used in all
backends in hybrid ubershader mode, when no shader stages were present.
- Fixed a case where async compilation could cause the same UID to be
appended multiple times to the UID cache.
- Fix incorrect number of threads being used when immediately compile
shaders was enabled.
Fixes a crash which could occur in platforms which do not support
buffer_storage, and EFB2RAM is enabled (which indirectly uses the
attributeless buffer).
While the code is namespaced out properly, the files weren't separated
into their own directory. This moves the files so that introducing a general
interface is easier in the future for supporting other architectures.
Lowest hanging fruit I could find with a profiler.
Not sure this stuff actually needs to be done, but assuming it is, why
not do it quickly? 10x faster, goes from 1% CPU to 0.09%.
Yes, this commit is only to blame OSX and Mali. Through the former supports unsynchronized mappings, the latter supports *no* way to stream dynamic data at all. Let's try to make bad news, as they ignore friendly feature requests. Maybe we just need to make more noise...
Some locales use non-breaking spaces as separators, so getting the
encoding right is important. If DolphinWX gets a string that isn't
valid UTF-8, it flat out won't display the string.
This enables shaders to be compiled while the game is starting, instead
of blocking startup. If a shader is needed before it is compiled,
emulation will block.
As these are stored in a map, operator< will become a hot function when
doing lookups, which happen every frame. std::tie generated a rather
large function here with quite a few branches.
We would want to improve the granularity here in the future, but for
now, this should avoid any performance loss from switching to the
VideoCommon shader cache.
