- Improved the GP Register Status: now this is all the time from the fifo loop.
- Improved the Interrupts manage:
1) Removed All UpdateInturrupts from CommandProcessor Writes and Read.
2) now the CP interrupts are schedule from the video thread and the fifo loop waiting until this happens
3) considering Inmediate mode for the CP interrupts
3) Implemented Interrupt CP Cache State
4) Implemented only Overflow interrupt in GatherPipeCheck because this need to be detected quickly.
- Implemented Overflow handling like a real HW, when Hiwatermark interrupt happens this write ClearRegister with True en HI and False in LO (FifoIntReset) after that a Control Register is writed and the FIFO is processed to LO Watermark.
- Removed all ugly code from LO and HI watermark manage
- Removed all ugly code from BP manage
- Change >= by == in the BP clauses
- Removed speed hack (1024 chunk) for better GP Status Control.
- Commented GXSetGPFifo very soon hack
- Commented FackWatchDog hack
- Commented FIFO_RW_DISTANCE = WritePointer hack
This is the beginning and the base for the future., If this broke your favorite game my apologize, only report this and will try solve it. If you have a Overflown don't worry, I've implemented the real solution code using the Overflow Interruption only need continue working for a perfect protection. Why I did it? Because is preferable a accurate and clean fifo instead hack y fifo for improve that. Thanks to DONKO for you awesome Video Plug in and skid for the chatting. PD: I have 7-10 fps more in the star fox video. bye :P

Most of the code dealing with the LogTypes namespace was C which lead to a
lot of nonsensical casting, so I have dumbed LOG_TYPE and LOG_LEVEL down to
plain C even though the move of wiiuse into Source means we don't currently
call GenericLog from C.
Set logging threshold to MAX_LOGLEVEL at startup so debug builds will also
p rint debugging messages before the GUI is running.
For some reason the way we use SetDefaultStyle doesn't play nice with wx 2.9
so we just get the default black text on a black background. Using a gray
background works around that problem, but I found it to also be much easier
on the eyes so I have switched the background color on all versions.

Plus: I added a _assert_msg_ in FIFO loop when the WriteDistance is negative. Please if that happens report it, this can help to solve strange issues with wrong WriteDistances.

In this way it prevents wrong fifo.CPReadWriteDistance in the future. That should fix RE0 Issue 2846 and others "Warning: GFX FIFO: Unknown Opcode (0x4d)" in dual core mode.

(those originating from a thread other than the gpu thread)
glxMakeCurrent is supposed to error out when the context is
still current in another thread. NVIDIA handles that, but mesa3d errors.

- fix numerous warnings
- make some variables unsigned
- remove redundant code and header inclusions
- make code more compact in lots of cases
Committing some additional changes by myself:
- additional header cleanups
- cleanup DX11 initialization/shutdown process (hinted at by avindra)
- Remove the cgD3D9 stuff from Externals since it's no longer needed

Dual Core sync fix.
When the FIFO is processing data we must not advance the cpu cycles in CoreTiming because in this way the VI will be desynchronized. So, We are waiting until the FIFO finish and while we process only the events required by the FIFO.
This should fix Issue 2072 .
This affect to all games in dual core mode.
Please, You can test all games with VPS limiter auto, 60, 50 depending of the game and compare with prev revision.
For example now NSMB in the video Intro has 60 fps (prev 30 fps) :D or SMG does't need anymore FPS Limitter Hack to get 55-60 fps
Beside the slowdowns now are more softly and the fps more stables because the VI sync is almost perfect.
The Core Timing and Fifo modifications are delicated. Please report if this hang any game. Don't forget check with prev revision.
Enjoy it! Thanks to Rodolfo for teach me all about dolphin.

By now I'm pretty sure some games are written in multi-thread, and they depend on Watermark to suspend/resume their threads.
So without Watermark, they will never work.

Improved dual core mode for "Metroid Prime 2", "Star Fox Adventures", etc.
I should have committed this long time ago, but I don't have every game to test compatibility... Any way, better late than never.
PS: If any regression observed, feel free to revert this rev.

Enable the thread by adding this line to the video plugin ini files, "User\Config\gfx_dx9.ini" and "User\Config\gfx_opengl.ini":
UseFIFOThread = True
The line should be added under the UseXFB line.
To disable the FIFO thread, use this line:
UseFIFOThread = False
If the line is not in the ini file, the default is disabled (i.e. False).
The FIFO thread causes an error when the OpenGL plugin is used. The D3D plugin works.
Only top left quarter of the screen can be seen when rendering to main window. The entire screen can be viewed when running in a window.

2. Fixed a bug (for Win 32bit) that reports "No possible memory base pointer found!" even when there IS valid memory base found.
3. Made Metroid Prime 2 (maybe also other games) boot
PS: There is definitely some initialization problem with Dolphin (not found exact location yet), which prevents Metroid Prime 2 from first time booting (If you boot some other GC game first, stop it, then MP2 can boot without problem).
So I added an instant BP hack that can make MP2 boot even at first time.
And I've tested all my games to guarantee it won't break any game that already boots before this hack.

Now the frame limiter yields on CPU thread, not as before on GPU thread mistakenly
2. Fixed clear of VI interrupts
I guess VI interrupts are not used at all, because they were never cleared before
3. Made GPU thread 0% processor usage when paused whatever your active config is.
I tried the event approach but somehow the thread resume latency is excessively long (Who can tell me why?)

"VideoFifo_CheckEFBAccess()" & "VideoFifo_CheckSwapRequest()" should be moved to a more suitable place than inside function "Fifo_EnterLoop()", which wastes considerable amount of CPU time (exhausting one core completely even when paused) and also makes VPS inaccurate.

This also fixed Ikaruga, not sure whether it could fix Metriod Prime. If not, how about disabling EFB copy?

2. Fixed Issue 1909
Multi-Nunchuck control problem
3. Updated SYSCONF, which should enable games that require MotionPlus, such as "Wii Sports Resort"

- FIFO changes - minor cleanup, code organization based on Nolan's changes
- Minor code cleanup
- CommandProcessor changes - Allow BP IRQ clearing for either raising or falling edges.
- Revived old SetFifoIdle code
Gets Pokemon XD to run, but will crash to any CPU-GPU desync. Other games like Metroid Prime, look happy with the new FIFO changes.
Please report any problems.
