Ideally Common.h wouldn't be a header in the Common library, and instead be renamed to something else, like PlatformCompatibility.h or something, but even then, there's still some things in the header that don't really fall under that label
This moves the version strings out to their own version header that doesn't dump a bunch of other unrelated things into scope, like what Common.h was doing.
This also places them into the Common namespace, as opposed to letting them sit in the global namespace.
Better separation of concerns. Relegates `ControllerInterface` to
enumerating input controls, and the new `ControlReference` deals with
combining inputs and configuration expression parsing.
GetName() creates a new evdev device which calls tons of ioctls. But the
main culprit is close() which for input devices appears to be a slow
path in the kernel.
This commit reduces PopulateDevices() by 50% on my laptop, but ~730 ms
is still ridiculously slow for something that isn't needed right away.
The SDL backend crashes when you close a joystick after SDL_Quit has
been called. Some backends don't need to be shutdown and
re-initialized everytime, we can just ask to enumerate devices again.
Rewrite GetXInputGUIDS to use SetupAPI instead of WMI Queries. When
using a language pack where the system language and user/program
language differ, Windows starts taking a VERY long time (10+ seconds)
to complete Queries for Win32_PNPEntity objects (it's probably
translating every single string since it transfers every single one
from the WMI server into memory in the program).
Fixes Issue 9744.
There is no reason to prevent the user from closing the config dialog
if the device is not found. It's not very good UX…
Also fixes ExpressionParser to return NO_DEVICE if the device doesn't
exist instead of SUCCESS.
This adds hotplugging support to the evdev input backend. We use
libudev to monitor changes to input devices in a separate thread.
Removed devices are removed from the devices list, and new devices
are added to the list.
The effect is that controllers are usable immediately after plugging
them without having to manually refresh devices (if they were
configured to be used, of course).
Changes UpdateInput() to skip if we can't lock the mutex, instead of
potentially blocking the CPU thread and causing a short but noticeable
frame drop.
This adds RemoveDevice() to ControllerInterface, fixes ExpressionParser
and some other code to support device removals without crashing,
and adds an IsValid() method to Device, to prepare for hotplugging.
This adds RegisterHotplugCallback() to register a callback which will
be invoked by the input backends' hotplug threads when there is a new
device, so that Core (GCKeyboard, GCPad, Wiimote, Hotkey) can reload
the configuration without adding a dependency to Core from InputCommon.
This makes the device ID assigning code common to all backends, by
moving it to AddDevice() instead of copy-pasting or replicating
the logic in the backends.
Also, to prepare for hotplugging, instead of relying on a name usage
count, the new ID assigning system always starts from ID 0 and tries
to assign the first ID that is not used.
The values are expected to be in the 0.0-1.0 range (as indicated by the
comment), and other parts of Dolphin also expect it to be in that range
since the "full" axis has a -1.0 to 1.0 range. However, this is not
always the case and fvalue can end up being outside of the range. This
clamps fvalue to always be in the 0.0 and 1.0 range.
