Will manually controlling both an accelerometer and a gyroscope at the
same time be reasonable to do? No idea. Was this easy to implement
thanks to the input override system? Yes.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12443.
In UpdateInput, lock m_devices_population_mutex before m_devices_mutex
to be consistent with other ControllerInterface functions. Normally the
former lock isn't needed in UpdateInput, but when a Wii Remote
disconnects it calls RemoveDevice which results in the mutexes being
locked in the wrong order.
This gets rid of a blocking operation, improving performance and fixing
https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12893.
This also makes us no longer directly access the state of certain UI
elements from the CPU thread, which probably wasn't thread-safe but
doesn't seem to have caused any observable issues so far.
Up until now, there have been two settings on Android that stored the
selected Wii Remote extension: the normal one that's also used on PC,
and a SharedPreferences one that's used by the overlay controls to
determine what controls to show. It is possible for these two to end up
out of sync, and my input changes have made that more likely to happen.
To fix this, let's rework how the overlay controller setting works.
We don't want it to encode the currently selected Wii Remote extension.
However, we can't simply get rid of the setting, because for some Wii
games we need the ability to switch between a GameCube controller and a
Wii Remote. What this commit does is give the user the option to select
any of the 4 GameCube controllers and any of the 4 Wii Remotes. (Before,
controllers 2-4 weren't available in the overlay.) Could be useful for
things like the Psycho Mantis fight in Metal Gear Solid. I'm also
switching from SharedPreferences to Dolphin.ini while I'm at it.
It's missing a lot of features from the PC version for now, like
buttons for inserting functions and the ability to see what the
expression evaluates to. I mostly just wanted to get something in
place so you can set up rumble.

This is a small regression from KillRenderer, which caused duplicated
frames to be counted on the FPS counter when the "Skip Presenting
Duplicated Frames" option was disabled.
This way, Android (which will show groups in the order they're defined)
will show groups in a more logical order similar to DolphinQt.
The main thing that was annoying me was how early Rumble was for
Wii Remotes. Some of the other changes I'm making in this commit,
like the order of Shake/Tilt/Swing, are more arbitrary and were
made for consistency with DolphinQt. But there are also places
where I didn't go all the way with matching DolphinQt. Most notably,
DolphinQt puts sticks before buttons, but I don't see any reason
to do that for Android.
Unlike PCs, Android doesn't really have any input method (not counting
touch) that can reasonably be expected to exist on most devices.
Because of this, I don't think shipping with a default mapping for the
buttons and sticks of GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes makes sense.
I would however like to ship default mappings for a few things:
1. Mapping the Wii Remote's accelerometer and gyroscope to the device's
accelerometer and gyroscope. This functionality is useful mainly
for people who use the touchscreen, but can also be useful when
using a clip-on controller. The disadvantage of having this mapped
by default is that games disable pointer input if the accelerometer
reports that the Wii Remote is pointed at the ceiling.
2. Mapping GC keyboards for use with a physical keyboard, like on PC.
After all, there's no other way of mapping them that makes sense.
3. Mapping rumble to the device's vibrator.
Aside from the GC keyboards, this approach is effectively the same as
what we were doing before the input overhaul.
This is a battery-saving measure. Whether a sensor should be suspended
is determined in the same way as whether key events and motion events
should be handled by the OS rather than consumed by Dolphin.
When Android presents an input event to an app, it wants the app to
return true or false depending on whether the app handled the event or
not. If the event wasn't handled by the app, it will be passed on to
the system, which may decide to take an action depending on what kind
of input event it is. For instance, if a B button press is passed on to
the system, it will be turned into a Back press. But if an R1 press is
passed on to the system, nothing in particular happens.
It's important that we get this return value right in Dolphin. For
instance, the user generally wouldn't want a B button press to open
the EmulationActivity menu, so B button presses usually shouldn't be
passed on to the system - but volume button presses usually should be
passed on to the system, since it would be hard to adjust the volume
otherwise. What ButtonManager did was to pass on input events that are
for a button which the user has not mapped, which I think makes sense.
But exactly how to implement that is more complicated in the new input
backend than in ButtonManager, because now we have a separation between
the input backend and the code that keeps track of the user's mappings.
What I'm going with in this commit is to treat an input as mapped if
it has been polled recently. In part I chose this because it seemed
like a simple way of implementing it that wouldn't cause too many
layering violations, but it also has two useful side effects:
1. If a controller is not being polled (e.g. GameCube controllers in
Wii games that don't use them), its mappings will not be considered.
2. Once sensor input is implemented in the Android input backend,
we will be able to use this "polled recently" tracking to power down
the sensors at times when the game is using a Wii Remote reporting
mode that doesn't include motion data. (Assuming that the sensor
inputs only are mapped to Wii Remote motion controls, that is.)
Android doesn't let us poll inputs whenever we want. Instead, we
listen to input events (activities will have to forward them to the
input backend), and store the received values in atomic variables
in the Input classes. This is similar in concept to how ButtonManager
worked, but without its homegrown second input mapping system.
ButtonManager is very different from how a normal input backend works,
and is making it hard for us to improve controller support on Android.
The following commits will add a new input backend in its place.
When that setting is enabled, m_xfb_entry is initially not present (during the phase where a shader compilation progress bar would be shown). The main path checks for m_xfb_entry, but the software renderer fallback path didn't.
Fixes another aspect of https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13172.
Before, it used a fallback where it returned a default object, where the width and height were set to 0. Presenter::Initialize() used GetSurfaceInfo to set the backbuffer size, then used that size when initializing the on-screen UI (even for the software renderer, where the on-screen UI isn't currently present), which meant that ImGui got a window size of 0 and thus resulted in a failed assertion.
Although BindBackbuffer checks for size changes, it doesn't help because ImGui has already been initialized, and the size hasn't actually changed since initialization occured.
Fixes one aspect of https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13172.
This second stack leads to JNI problems on Android, because ART fetches
the address and size of the original stack using pthread functions
(see GetThreadStack in art/runtime/thread.cc), and (presumably) treats
stack addresses outside of the original stack as invalid. (What I don't
understand is why some JNI operations on the CPU thread work fine
despite this but others don't.)
Instead of creating a second stack, let's borrow the approach ART uses:
Use pthread functions to find out the stack's address and size, then
install guard pages at an appropriate location. This lets us get rid
of a workaround we had in the MsgAlert function.
Because we're no longer choosing the stack size ourselves, I've made some
tweaks to where the put the guard pages. Previously we had a stack of
2 MiB and a safe zone of 512 KiB. We now accept stacks as small as 512 KiB
(used on macOS) and use a safe zone of 256 KiB. I feel like this should
be fine, but haven't done much testing beyond "it seems to work".
By the way, on Windows it was already the case that we didn't create
a second stack... But there was a bug in the implementation!
The code for protecting the stack has to run on the CPU thread, since
it's the CPU thread's stack we want to protect, but it was actually
running on EmuThread. This commit fixes that, since now this bug
matters on other operating systems too.
I also changed LoadConfig, but that change doesn't affect correctness,
it's only so it looks neat by matching SaveConfig.
This bug was added in 18a4afb053, the
commit that introduced DefaultValue::Disabled. The bug can't actually be
triggered in master, but it can be triggered in the Android input
overhaul PR.
The HLSL compiler incorrectly decides isnan can't be true, so this
workaround was originally added in 52c82733 but lost during the
conversion to SPIR-V.
This broke formatting the system memory; see https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13176. After calling ticket.DeleteTicket(), ticket.m_bytes was 0-length, but calling ticket.IsV1Ticket() still attempted to read from m_bytes.
This was introduced in 2fd9852ca8, although it didn't actually cause a crash until 929fba08e7.
The LEA that the signal handler is trying to undo the effects of is a
32-bit instruction, and the value in the register prior to the LEA is
also 32-bit, so the signal handler should use a 32-bit write.
(Actually, in the end this doesn't really matter, because the first
instruction that reads this value after backpatching is also a 32-bit
instruction...)
This resulted in the labels being solid black even when audio stretching is disabled the first time the settings are opened, but then properly being greyed out after changing a setting (even the audio backend or DSP emulation engine, not just whether audio stretching is enabled).
This very much isn't a build configuration that we're going to ship,
but I want to be able to tell people that they can build it on their
own if they really want to see how terribly it performs :)
Just like before, you'll need to edit two lines in app/build.gradle to
define ENABLE_GENERIC=ON and actually enable armeabi-v7a if you want an
armeabi-v7a build. This commit just fixes some compilations errors that
crop up if you do so.
Before these changes you could tell Dolphin to convert a game file into the same format it is already in, leading to the FileDialog using the input path as the default destination path
An unsuspecting user could then click Save and Dolphin would try to convert the input file by writing the destination file on top of it... leading to an I/O error and the input file being entirely removed
This fixes a regression from 592ba31. When `a` was a constant 0 and `b`
was a non-constant 0x80000000, the 32-bit negation operation would
overflow, causing an incorrect result. The sign extension needs to happen
before the negation to avoid overflow.
Note that I can't merge the SXTW and NEG into one instruction.
NEG is an alias for SUB with the first operand being set to ZR,
but "SUB (extended register)" treats register 31 as SP instead of ZR.
I've also changed the order for the case where `a` is a constant
0xFFFFFFFF. I don't think the order actually affects correctness here,
but let's use the same order for all the cases since it makes the code
easier to reason about.
This works around an Intel driver bug where, on D3D12 only, dual-source blending behaves incorrectly if the second source is unused on. This bug is visible in skyboxes in Super Mario Sunshine, which first draw clouds and sun flare in greyscale and then draw the sky afterwards with a source factor of 1 and a dest factor of 1-src_color (this results in the clouds being tinted blue). This process is done on an RGB888 framebuffer, so alpha update is disabled. (Color update is enabled; note that if you look at this in Dolphin's fifo analyzer, it won't be enabled because they use the BP mask functionality to only change the blending functions and not alpha/color update, for whatever reason.)
The previous code only updated the PLRU on cache misses, which made it so that the least recently inserted cache block was evicted, instead of the least recently used/hit one.
This regressed in 9d39647f9e (part of #11183, but it was fine in e97d380437), although beforehand it was only implemented for the instruction cache, and the instruction cache hit extremely infrequently when the JIT or cached interpreter is in use, which generally keeps it from behaving correctly (the pure interpreter behaves correctly with it).
I'm not aware of any games that are affected by this, though I did not do extensive testing.
Previously we would only backpatch overflowed address calculations
if the overflow was 0x1000 or less. Now we can handle the full 2 GiB
of overflow in both directions.
I'm also making equivalent changes to JitArm64's code. This isn't because
it needs it – JitArm64 address calculations should never overflow – but
because I wanted to get rid of the 0x100001000 inherited from Jit64 that
makes even less sense for JitArm64 than for Jit64.
This avoids a pseudo infinite loop where CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack
would lock the CPU in order to read the call stack, causing the CPU to
call Host_UpdateDisasmDialog because it's transitioning from running to
pausing, causing Host::UpdateDisasmDialog to be emitted, causing
CodeWidget::Update to be called, once again causing
CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack to be called, repeating the cycle.
Dolphin didn't go completely unresponsive during this, because
Host_UpdateDisasmDialog schedules the emitting of Host::UpdateDisasmDialog
to happen on another thread without blocking, but it was stopping certain
operations like exiting emulation from working.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.
This code doesn't need to be portable (since the goal is to have a smaller offset for x64 codegen), so if it's not supported there are other problems. Similar code exists in e.g. DSP.cpp.
While the NV extension is totally fine, the KHR extension should be able to support more hardware.
For NVIDIA, the hardware either supports both or neither, it just needs a driver from the last two years.
For AMD, the drivers from late 2022-12 seems to bring support for the KHR extension.
For Intel, the KHR is also supported for some years.
Frame duplicate detection was inverted. Huge problem for 60fps games
where it would see all frames as "duplicates" and nothing would ever be
presented.
The logging was broken in 958cbf38a4 (DSPTool doesn't use dolphin's logging system, so it just produced nothing; the same thing affected comparing before 693a29f8ce).
AssemblerError::LabelAlreadyExists (previously ERR_LABEL_EXISTS) simply was never used.
- Cancel doesn't shut down anymore.
Allowing it to be used multiple times thoughout the life of
the WorkQueue
- Remove Clear, so we only have Cancel semantics
- Add IsCancelling so work items can abort early if cancelling
- Replace m_cancelled and m_thread.joinable() guars with m_shutdown.
- Rename Flush to WaitForCompletion (As it's ambiguous if a function
called flush should be blocking or not)
- Add documentation
