D3D11 cannot handle block compressed textures where the first mip level
is not a multiple of the block size. The simple fix for texture pack
authors: leave these textures uncompressed. You can still use a .dds
container.
Using 8-bit integer math here lead to precision loss for depth copies,
which broke various effects in games, e.g. lens flare in MK:DD.
It's unlikely the console implements this as a floating-point multiply
(fixed-point perhaps), but since we have the float round trip in our
EFB2RAM shaders anyway, it's not going to make things any worse. If we
do rewrite our shaders to use integer math completely, then it might be
worth switching this conversion back to integers.
However, the range of the values (format) should be known, or we should
expand all values out to 24-bits first.
Keeps signed values out of bit arithmetic (not that there's any issues
that could arise from it in these situations, but it does look more
consistent, and silences compiler warnings)
Also ensure that all members of the class are initialized on
construction as well. Previously the bool indicating if options are
dirty wouldn't be initialized, which could be read uninitialized if an
instance was constructed and then IsDirty() is called.
Keeps all of the interpreter-specific exception handling functions
together in a reusable way across translation units, similar to
FPUtils.h for reusable floating-point functions.
Given this is a base class, we should clearly state what the parameters
to the functions in its exposed interface actually mean or represent.
This avoids needing to hunt for the definition of the functions in cpp
files.
While we're at it, normalize said parameter names so they follow our
naming guidelines.
There's no reason to use int here as opposed to an unsigned value.
Video_AccessEFB() takes its arguments as u32 values, so we'd be doing
sign conversions for no reason here (along with causing avoidable
compiler warnings).
If a program executing in user mode tries to write to any SPRs other than
XER, LR, or CTR registers, then a program exception occurs. Similarly
this also applies for reading SPRs as well, however the upper and lower
timebase halves can also be read (but not written to).
If HID0.NOOPTI is set, then dcbt and dcbtst are no-oped globally. We
currently don't perform data cache emulation, but we put this in anyway
so this detail isn't forgotten about if data cache emulation is
introduced at some point in the future.
This implements ES_VerifySign which is notably used by the system menu
when importing saves.
Now *all* ES commands that are actually used by titles are implemented.
