I found it a little bit annoying that you can't start typing
the desired address immediately after opening the window.
Also getting rid of the window's ? button while I'm at it.
When you come across a cheat code in a place like the Dolphin
wiki, it's often posted like this:
$16:9 Widescreen
0441187C 3FE38E39
Sometimes users try to paste this in its entirety into the Code
field, which leads to Dolphin reporting an error on the first line.
I think it would be nice to make this a little smoother by having
Dolphin accept having a first line that starts with $.
PR https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/9700 removed spaces from within control names, which some user complained about, and their point of view is kind of understandable:
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12605
with this change, only spaces outside (between) control names are trimmed, which are the ones we wanted to trim in the first place.
This will still retain the major advantages from 9700.
Basically, "`Button 1` + `Button 2`" was showing as "`Button1`+`Button2`", while it will now show as "`Button 1`+`Button 2`".
This actually eliminates any setting pertaining to SD cards from the
NetPlay dialog, as it would effectively just be a duplicate of the
setting in the Wii pane, potentially causing confusion.
This also enables save data writing by default, as this is probably
what most players want, and should avoid them losing hours of progress
because they forgot to tick a checkbox.

this prevented some devices from being recreated correctly, as they were exclusive (e.g. DInput Joysticks)
This is achieved by calling Settings::ReleaseDevices(), which releases all the UI devices shared ptrs.
If we are the host (Qt) thread, DevicesChanged() is now called in line, to avoid devices being hanged onto by the UI.
For this, I had to add a method to check whether we are the Host Thread to Qt.
Avoid calling ControllerInterface::RefreshDevices() from the CPU thread if the emulation is running
and we manually refresh devices from Qt, as that is not necessary anymore.
Refactored the way IOWindow lists devices to make it clearer and hold onto disconnected devices.
There were so many issues with the previous code:
-Devices changes would not be reflected until the window was re-opened
-If there was no default device, it would fail to select the device at index 0
-It could have crashed if we had 0 devices
-The default device was not highlighted as such
Looks like the option was added to the Wx UI at commit 198d3b69, which
was a few months after the advancedWidget was originally ported from
Wx to Qt, but before anyone was actually using Qt.
-add a way to reset their value (from the mappings UI)
-fix "memory leak" where they would never be cleaned,
one would be created every time you wrote a character after a "$"
-fix ability to create variables with an empty string by just writing "$" (+added error for it)
-Add $ operator to the UI operators list, to expose this functionality even more
This fixes a nasty issue where you can change the Dual Core setting
during emulation, if it has been overridden by GameINI or NetPlay, by
simply changing any of the non-disabled settings. This is because
changing any of the settings will write all of them to the config.
This issue is particularly nasty because managing to disable Dual Core
during emulation, and then stopping it, results in the emulator core
being totally deadlocked. It's impossible to recover from this state,
and Dolphin will remain as a zombie process on the system, consuming
resources and holding locks, until forcibly killed.

This commit adds support for compiling Dolphin for ARM on MacOS so that it can
run natively on the M1 processors without running through Rosseta2 emulation
providing a 30-50% performance speedup and less hitches from Rosseta2.
It consists of several key changes:
- Adding support for W^X allocation(MAP_JIT) for the ARM JIT
- Adding the machine context and config info to identify the M1 processor
- Additions to the build system and docs to support building universal binaries
- Adding code signing entitlements to access the MAP_JIT functionality
- Updating the MoltenVK libvulkan.dylib to a newer version with M1 support
Sending an empty string to the translation system will not
result in getting an empty string back, but rather a description
of the currently loaded translations file. So empty strings
should not be marked as translatable.
Also adding some i18n comments and rewording a string I thought
was hard to understand.
and replacing it with a ":" prefix. Also remove white spaces and \n \t \r.
bugfix: fix EmulatedController::GetStateLock() not being aquired when reading the
expression reference
bugfix: MappingButton::UpdateIndicator() calling State(0) on outputs, breaking ongoing
rumbles if a game was running
Improvement: make expressions previews appear in Italic if they failed to parse correctly
Since the description updating is tied to the selection changing on the detail list, and the detail list is recreated on each object change, behavior was somewhat broken. Clearing the list changed the current row to zero, but nothing else (particularly m_object_data_offsets) had been updated, so the description was not necessarily correct (this is easier to observe now since the vertex data is at the end, so it's easier to get different lengths of register updates). Furthermore, subsequent clears did not update the current row since there was no visible selection, so it only changed the description once. The current row is now always set to zero, which forces an update (and also scrolls the list back to the top). The presence of FRAME_ROLE and OBJECT_ROLE are also checked so that the description is cleared if no object is selected.
- Only one search result is generated per command/line, even if there are multiple matches in that line.
- Pressing enter on the edit field begins a search, just like clicking the begin button.
- The next and previous buttons are disabled until a search is begun.
- The search results are cleared when changing objects or frames.
- The previous button once again works (a regression from the previous commit), and the register updates and graphics data for the correct object are searched.
- currentRow() never returns -1, so checking that is unnecessary (and misleading).
- The 'Invalid search parameters (no object selected)' previously never showed up before because FRAME_ROLE is present if and only if OBJECT_ROLE is present.
This way, it can be focused with the render window behind it, instead of having the main window show up and cover the render window. This is useful for adjusting the object range, among other things.
If the number of objects varied, this would result in either missing objects on some frames, or too many objects on some frames; the latter case could cause crashes. Since it used the current frame to get the count, if the FIFO is started before the FIFO analyzer is opened, then the current frame is effectively random, making it hard to reproduce consistently.
This issue has existed since the FIFO analyzer was implemented for Qt.
The 'zero frames in the range' check can be removed because now there is always at least 1 frame; of course that might be the same frame over and over again, but that's still useful for e.g. Free Look (and the 1 frame repeating effect already occurred when frame count was exclusive).
A single object can be selected instead of 2 (it was already inclusive internally), and the maximum value is the highest number of objects in any frame (minus 1) to reduce jank when multiple frames are being played back.
Now that this is only called when playback actually starts (and not on unpausing), this change makes the experience a bit better (no more missing objects from not having reset the from object after changing FIFOs).
-Add pause state to FPSCounter.
-Add ability to have more than one "OnStateChanged" callback in core.
-Add GetActualEmulationSpeed() to Core. Returns 1 by default. It's used by my input PRs.
Verifying a Wii game creates an instance of IOS, and Dolphin
can't handle more than one instance of IOS at the same time.
Properly supporting it is probably more effort than it's worth.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12494.
Avoids the need to copy the *.mo files manually *and* more importantly
this ensures that the mo files are always recreated if the build
output directory is cleared.
I think the AArch64 JIT has come far enough that it doesn't have to
be called experimental anymore.
I'm also labeling the x86-64 JIT as x86-64 for consistence with the
AArch64 JIT. This will especially be helpful if we start supporting
AArch64 on macOS, as AArch64 macOS can run both the x86-64 JIT and
the AArch64 JIT depending on whether you enable Rosetta 2.
This adds a function to get the emulated or real Bluetooth device for
an active emulation instance. This lets us deduplicate all the
`ios->GetDeviceByName("/dev/usb/oh1/57e/305")` calls that are currently
scattered in the codebase and ensures Bluetooth passthrough is being
handled correctly.
This also fixes the broken check in WiimoteCommon::UpdateSource.
There was a confusion between "emulated Bluetooth" (as opposed to
"real Bluetooth" aka Bluetooth passthrough) and "emulated Wiimote".
Specifically, 'Scooby-Doo! Mystery Mayhem', 'Scooby-Doo! Unmasked', 'Ed, Edd n Eddy: The Mis-Edventures', and the Wii version of 'Happy Feet'.
The JIT cache causes problems with emulated icache invalidation in these games, resulting in areas failing to load.
Fix Gamelist context menu item 'Open Containing Folder' opening wrong

BPMEM_TEV_COLOR_ENV + 6 (0xC6) was missing due to a typo. BPMEM_BP_MASK (0xFE) does not lend itself well to documentation with the current FIFO analyzer implementation (since it requires remembering the values in BP memory) but still shouldn't be treated as unknown. BPMEM_TX_SETMODE0_4 and BPMEM_TX_SETMODE1_4 (0xA4-0xAB) were missing entirely.
The Host constructor sets a callback on a lambda that in turn calls
Host_UpdateDisasmDialog. Since that function is not a member function
capturing this is unnecessary.
Fixes -Wunused-lambda-capture warning on freebsd-x64.
Some of the device names can be ambiguous and require fully or partly
qualifying the name (e.g. IOS::HLE::FS::) in a somewhat verbose way.
Additionally, insufficiently qualified names are prone to breaking.
Consider the example of IOS::HLE::FS:: (namespace) and
IOS::HLE::Device::FS (class). If we use FS::Foo in a file that doesn't
know about the class, everything will work fine. However, as soon as
Device::FS is declared via a header include or even just forward
declared, that code will cease to compile because FS:: now resolves
to Device::FS if FS::Foo was used in the Device namespace.
It also leads to having to write IOS::ES:: to access ES types and
utilities even for code that is already under the IOS namespace.
The fix for this is simple: rename the device classes and give them
a "device" suffix in their names if the existing ones may be ambiguous.
This makes it clear whether we're referring to the device class or to
something else.
This is not any longer to type, considering it lets us get rid of the
Device namespace, which is now wholly unnecessary.
There are no functional changes in this commit.
A future commit will fix unnecessarily qualified names.

The dolphin-redirect.php script seems to have been present since 2012
at least, but we accidentally stopped using it when the "open wiki"
feature was reimplemented in DolphinQt2 in 2016.
<@delroth> dolphin-redirect.php is slightly smarter and tries to find gameid aliases for e.g. same region
<@delroth> uh, I mean different region
Also avoid files without a name before the extension (name: ".ini")
from being added to the list because then they wouldn't be saveable
and it would appear with an empty name anyway.
This function has been marked as obsolete. In Qt 6.0 it's removed
entirely, so we must use getContentsMargin() explicitly instead
(margin() would do this for us).
Ditto for setMargin(), in which case we use setContentsMargin instead.
setMargin() would just pass its argument to all four parameters of
setContentsMargin(), so we can do the same.
This literal was deprecated in 5.14.0. Not to mention it wasn't
documented as part of the API either: see the 5.14.0 changelog here:
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/dist/changes-5.14.0?h=v5.14.0
On Qt 6.0 this define is removed entirely. To stay forward compatible,
we can make use of QStringLiteral instead.
When a game is selected, the option to add a shortcut of the game to the desktop is given. Uses native Windows API since Qt lacks support for adding shortcuts.
The name was confusing as changing it at runtime would not change the window to fullscreen, as it effectively only affects the start of the emulation.
Also blocked the ability to change it when the emulation is running, to be more inline with other similar settings, like "Render to main Window".
This code was storing references to patch entries which could move around in memory if a patch was erased from the middle of a vector or if the vector itself was reallocated. Instead, NewPatchDialog maintains a separate copy of the patch entries which are committed back to the patch if the user accepts the changes.
These games are erroneously zeroing buffers before they can be fully copied to ARAM by DMA. The responsible memset() calls are followed by a call to DVDRead() which issues dcbi instructions that effectively cancel the memset() on real hardware. Because Dolphin lacks dcache emulation, the effects of the memset() calls are observed, which causes missing audio.
In a comment on the original bug, phire noted that the issue can be corrected by simply nop'ing out the offending memset() calls. Because the games dynamically load different .rel executables based on the character and/or language, the addresses of these calls can vary.
To deal generally with the problem of code being dynamically loaded to fixed, known addresses, the patch engine is extended to support conditional patches which require a match against a known value. This sort of thing is already achievable with Action Replay/Gecko codes, but their use depends on enabling cheats globally in Dolphin, which is not a prerequisite shared by patches.
Patches are included for every region, character, and language combination. They are enabled by default.
The end result is an approximation of the games' behavior on real hardware without the associated complexity of proper dcache emulation.

TunTap has recently become unmaintained, and it seems Apple wants developers to move away from kexts in general. TunTap currently takes some finagling to work on Catalina, and it may not work at all on Big Sur, necessitating a non-kext-based solution. Fortunately, fake Ethernet devices were introduced in Sierra and can be used similarly to tap adapters. This commit adds a new type of BBA interface implementation which uses fake Ethernet devices via tapserver (https://github.com/fuzziqersoftware/tapserver) to communicate with the host. This implementation was tested with PSO Episodes I & II, which can successfully connect to a private server running locally.
This implementation is only available on macOS, since that's the only place it's needed - Windows/Linux/Unix are unaffected by TunTap being deprecated.
If we want to enable codes in the default game INIs,
we should have some way for users to disable them.
This commit accomplishes that by adding a *_Disabled
section corresponding to each *_Enabled section.
Fallback Region
A user-selected fallback to use instead of the default PAL
This is used for unknown region or region free titles to give them
the ability to force region to use. This replaces the current fallback region
of PAL. This can be useful if a user is trying to play a region free
tilte that is originally NTSC and expects to be run at NTSC speeds. This
may be done when a user attempts to dump a WAD of their own without
understanding the settings they have chosen, or could be an intentional
decision by a developer of a ROM hack that can be injected into a
Virtual Console WAD.
Remove using System Menu region being checked in GetFallbackRegion
Use DiscIO::Region instead of std::String for fallback
Add explanation text for Fallback Region
tr calls with more than one argument would have a 0x04 byte
in the returned string when no translation was found
(which always is the case when using Dolphin in English).
Replace it with a function-local static that is initialized on first
use. This gets rid of a global variable and removes the need for
manual initialization in UICommon.
This commit also replaces the weird find_if that looks for a non-null
unique_ptr with a simple "is vector empty" check considering that
none of the pointers can be null by construction.
Unlike Super Paper Mario, this game doesn't crash as soon as you
try to start it, but rather if you try to skip a certain cutscene.
Thanks to JMC for letting me know about this.
CommandLineParse expects UTF-8 strings. (QApplication, on the
other hand, seems to be designed so that you can pass in the
char** argv untouched on Windows and get proper Unicode handling.)
Other than the controller settings and JIT debug settings,
these are the only settings which were defined in Java code
but not defined in the new config system in C++. (There are
still a lot of settings that are defined in the new config
system but not yet saveable in the new config system, though.)
Instead of comparing the game ID, revision, disc number and name,
we can compare a hash of important parts of the disc including
all the aforementioned data but also additional data such as the
FST. The primary reason why I'm making this change is to let us
catch more desyncs before they happen, but this should also fix
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12115. As a bonus, the UI can
now distinguish the case where a client doesn't have the game at
all from the case where a client has the wrong version of the game.
It is my opinion that nobody should use NKit disc images without
being aware of the drawbacks of them. Since it seems like almost
nobody who is using NKit disc images knows what NKit is (hmm, now
how could that have happened...?), I am adding a warning to Dolphin
so that you can't run NKit disc images without finding out about the
drawbacks. In case someone really does want to use NKit disc images,
the warning has a "Don't show this again" option. Unfortunately, I
can't retroactively add the warning where it's most needed:
in Dolphin 5.0, which does not support Wii NKit disc images.
