It only ever did anything on 32-bit OS X.
Anyway, it wasn't even on the right functions, and these days
ABI_PushRegistersAndAdjustStack should handle maintaining the ABI
correctly.
It now affects the GPU determinism mode as well as some miscellaneous
things that were calling IsNetPlayRunning. Probably incomplete.
Notably, this can change while paused, if the user starts recording a
movie. The movie code appears to have been missing locking between
setting g_playMode and doing other things, which probably had a small
chance of causing crashes or even desynced movies; fix that with
PauseAndLock.
The next commit will add a hidden config variable to override GPU
determinism mode.
It's a relatively big commit (less big with -w), but it's hard to test
any of this separately...
The basic problem is that in netplay or movies, the state of the CPU
must be deterministic, including when the game receives notification
that the GPU has processed FIFO data. Dual core mode notifies the game
whenever the GPU thread actually gets around to doing the work, so it
isn't deterministic. Single core mode is because it notifies the game
'instantly' (after processing the data synchronously), but it's too slow
for many systems and games.
My old dc-netplay branch worked as follows: everything worked as normal
except the state of the CP registers was a lie, and the CPU thread only
delivered results when idle detection triggered (waiting for the GPU if
they weren't ready at that point). Usually, a game is idle iff all the
work for the frame has been done, except for a small amount of work
depending on the GPU result, so neither the CPU or the GPU waiting on
the other affected performance much. However, it's possible that the
game could be waiting for some earlier interrupt, and any of several
games which, for whatever reason, never went into a detectable idle
(even when I tried to improve the detection) would never receive results
at all. (The current method should have better compatibility, but it
also has slightly higher overhead and breaks some other things, so I
want to reimplement this, hopefully with less impact on the code, in the
future.)
With this commit, the basic idea is that the CPU thread acts as if the
work has been done instantly, like single core mode, but actually hands
it off asynchronously to the GPU thread (after backing up some data that
the game might change in memory before it's actually done). Since the
work isn't done, any feedback from the GPU to the CPU, such as real
XFB/EFB copies (virtual are OK), EFB pokes, performance queries, etc. is
broken; but most games work with these options disabled, and there is no
need to try to detect what the CPU thread is doing.
Technically: when the flag g_use_deterministic_gpu_thread (currently
stuck on) is on, the CPU thread calls RunGpu like in single core mode.
This function synchronously copies the data from the FIFO to the
internal video buffer and updates the CP registers, interrupts, etc.
However, instead of the regular ReadDataFromFifo followed by running the
opcode decoder, it runs ReadDataFromFifoOnCPU ->
OpcodeDecoder_Preprocess, which relatively quickly scans through the
FIFO data, detects SetFinish calls etc., which are immediately fired,
and saves certain associated data from memory (e.g. display lists) in
AuxBuffers (a parallel stream to the main FIFO, which is a bit slow at
the moment), before handing the data off to the GPU thread to actually
render. That makes up the bulk of this commit.
In various circumstances, including the aforementioned EFB pokes and
performance queries as well as swap requests (i.e. the end of a frame -
we don't want the CPU potentially pumping out frames too quickly and the
GPU falling behind*), SyncGPU is called to wait for actual completion.
The overhead mainly comes from OpcodeDecoder_Preprocess (which is,
again, synchronous), as well as the actual copying.
Currently, display lists and such are escrowed from main memory even
though they usually won't change over the course of a frame, and
textures are not even though they might, resulting in a small chance of
graphical glitches. When the texture locking (i.e. fault on write) code
lands, I can make this all correct and maybe a little faster.
* This suggests an alternate determinism method of just delaying results
until a short time before the end of each frame. For all I know this
might mostly work - I haven't tried it - but if any significant work
hinges on the competion of render to texture etc., the frame will be
missed.
videoBuffer -> s_video_buffer
size -> s_video_buffer_write_ptr
g_pVideoData -> g_video_buffer_read_ptr (impl moved to Fifo.cpp)
This eradicates the wonderful use of 'size' as a global name, and makes
it clear that s_video_buffer_write_ptr and g_video_buffer_read_ptr are
the two ends of the FIFO buffer s_video_buffer.
Oh, and remove a useless namespace {}.
This state will be used to calculate sizes for skipping over commands on
a separate thread. An alternative to having these state variables would
be to have the preprocessor stash "state as we go" somewhere, but I
think that would be much uglier.
GetVertexSize now takes an extra argument to determine which state to
use, as does FifoCommandRunnable, which calls it. While I'm modifying
FifoCommandRunnable, I also change it to take a buffer and size as
parameters rather than using g_pVideoData, which will also be necessary
later. I also get rid of an unused overload.
VertexLoader::VertexLoader was setting loop_counter, a *static*
variable, to 0. This was nonsensical, but harmless until I started to
run it on a separate thread, where it had a chance of interfering with a
running vertex translator.
Switch to just using a register for the loop counter.
- Lazily create the native vertex format (which involves GL calls) from
RunVertices rather than RefreshLoader itself, freeing the latter to be
run from the CPU thread (hopefully).
- In order to avoid useless allocations while doing so, store the native
format inside the VertexLoader rather than using a cache entry.
- Wrap the s_vertex_loader_map in a lock, for similar reasons.
To avoid FPRs being pushed unnecessarily, I checked the uses: DSPEmitter
doesn't use FPRs, and VertexLoader doesn't use anything but RAX, so I
specified the register list accordingly. The regular JIT, however, does
use FPRs, and as far as I can tell, it was incorrect not to save them in
the outer routine. Since the dispatcher loop is only exited when
pausing or stopping, this should have no noticeable performance impact.
- Factor common work into a helper function.
- Replace confusingly named "noProlog" with "rsp_alignment". Now that
x86 is not supported, we can just specify it explicitly as 8 for
clarity.
- Add the option to include more frame size, which I'll need later.
- Revert a change by magumagu in March which replaced MOVAPD with MOVUPD
on account of 32-bit Windows, since it's no longer supported. True,
apparently recent processors don't execute the former any faster if the
pointer is, in fact, aligned, but there's no point using MOVUPD for
something that's guaranteed to be aligned...
(I discovered that GenFrsqrte and GenFres were incorrectly passing false
to noProlog - they were, in fact, functions without prologs, the
original meaning of the parameter - which caused the previous change to
break. This is now fixed.)
For a long time, we've had ugly and inconsistent function names here as
helpers, names like "decodebytesRGB5A3rgba" which are absolutely
incomprehensible to understand. Fix this by introducing a new consistent
naming scheme, where the above function now becomes "DecodeBytes_RGB5A3".
Instead of having three separate functions and checking the tlutfmt in a
variety of places, just do it once in a helper method. This is already
for the slow path either in our Generic decoder or in our Software
renderer, so it doesn't matter that this is slower.
x64 will continue using the separate functions for speed.
The D3D / OGL backends only ever used RGBA textures, and the Software
backend uses its own custom code for sampling. The ARGB path seems to
just be dead code.
Since ARGB and RGBA formats are similar, I don't think this will make
the code more difficult to read or unable to be used as
reference. Somebody who wants to use this code to output ARGB can simply
modify the MakeRGBA function to put the shift at the other end.
This pulls all the duplicate code from TextureDecoder_Generic /
TextureDecoder_x64 out and puts it in a common file. Out custom font
used for debugging the texture cache is also pulled out and put in a
common "sfont.inc" file. At some point we should also combine this font
with the other six binary fonts we ship.
GetPC_TexFormat was never used. It was added in commit d02426a, with the
only user being commented out code. The commented out code was later
removed in 9893122, but the implementation stayed.
We were decoding to BGRA32 textures in our RGBA32 texture decoder. Since
this is the same for the BGRA32 decoder implementation, this is most
likely a copy/paste typo, rather than the texture actually being
bit-swapped. Fix this.
I'm not sure of any games that use the C14X2 texture format, so I'm not
sure this fixes any games, but it does make the code cleaner for when we
clean it up in the future, and merge some of these similar loops.
Separated out from my gpu-determinism branch by request. It's not a big
commit; I just like to write long commit messages.
The main reason to kill it is hopefully a slight performance improvement
from avoiding the double switch (especially in single core mode);
however, this also improves cycle calculation, as described below.
- FifoCommandRunnable is removed; in its stead, Decode returns the
number of cycles (which only matters for "sync" GPU mode), or 0 if there
was not enough data, and is also responsible for unknown opcode alerts.
Decode and DecodeSemiNop are almost identical, so the latter is replaced
with a skipped_frame parameter to Decode. Doesn't mean we can't improve
skipped_frame mode to do less work; if, at such a point, branching on it
has too much overhead (it certainly won't now), it can always be changed
to a template parameter.
- FifoCommandRunnable used a fixed, large cycle count for display lists,
regardless of the contents. Presumably the actual hardware's processing
time is mostly the processing time of whatever commands are in the list,
and with this change InterpretDisplayList can just return the list's
cycle count to be added to the total. (Since the calculation for this
is part of Decode, it didn't seem easy to split this change up.)
To facilitate this, Decode also gains an explicit 'end' parameter in
lieu of FifoCommandRunnable's call to GetVideoBufferEndPtr, which can
point to there or to the end of a display list (or elsewhere in
gpu-determinism, but that's another story). Also, as a small
optimization, InterpretDisplayList now calls OpcodeDecoder_Run rather
than having its own Decode loop, to allow Decode to be inlined (haven't
checked whether this actually happens though).
skipped_frame mode still does not traverse display lists and uses the
old fake value of 45 cycles. degasus has suggested that this hack is
not essential for performance and can be removed, but I want to separate
any potential performance impact of that from this commit.
This is required to make packing consistent between compilers: with u32, MSVC
would not allocate a bitfield that spans two u32s (it would leave a "hole").
The only possible functionality change is that s_efbAccessRequested and
s_swapRequested are no longer reset at init and shutdown of the OGL
backend (only; this is the only interaction any files other than
MainBase.cpp have with them). I am fairly certain this was entirely
vestigial.
Possible performance implications: efbAccessReady now uses an Event
rather than spinning, which might be slightly slower, but considering
the slow loop the flags are being checked in from the GPU thread, I
doubt it's noticeable.
Also, this uses sequentially consistent rather than release/acquire
memory order, which might be slightly slower, especially on ARM...
something to improve in Event/Flag, really.
This shouldn't affect functionality. I'm not sure if the breakpoint
distinction is actually necessary (my commit messages from the old
dc-netplay last year claim that breakpoints are broken anyway, but I
don't remember why), but I don't actually need to change this part of
the code (yet), so I'll stick with the trimmings change for now.
This is effectively unused, as the window handles that we pass to the
GLInterface are window handles for the frame which isn't ever a real
toplevel window. Host_UpdateTitle is what actually sets the proper title
on the render window.
Now that MainNoGUI is properly architected and GLX doesn't need to
sometimes craft its own windows sometimes which we have to thread back
into MainNoGUI, we don't need to thread the window handle that GLX
creates at all.
This removes the reference to pass back here, and the g_pWindowHandle
always be the same as the window returned by Host_GetRenderHandle().
A future cleanup could remove g_pWindowHandle entirely.
The framebuffer is no longer rotated the wrong way around in Qualcomm's latest development drivers.
They did something right, only took them over a year.
This catches most instances of configuration failures that can happen in a post processing shader.
Gives a user a helpful error message that lets them know what they have failed to set up correctly
This class loads all the common PP shader configuration options and passes those options through to a inherited class that OpenGL or D3D will have.
Makes it so all the common code for PP shaders is in VideoCommon instead of duplicating the code across each backend.
Fixes a bug where "Use Fullscreen" would initialize into exclusive fullscreen regardless of the borderless fullscreen setting.
Also relieves the need for the video renderer to check the borderless fullscreen setting each time.
The hack was needed because the Nvidia 3D Vision heuristics are documented to only support surfaces that are the same size as the backbuffer. This would be the case if you enabled the hack and selected the "Auto (Window Size)" internal resolution.
However, on recent drivers the same effect is achieved by selecting the "Auto (Multiple)" internal resolution. Therefore the hack is no longer required.
Also have the renderer remember its own fullscreen state. This is done to prevent a case where we exit exclusive fullscreen through the configuration and a focus shift at the same time. In this case the renderer would fail to detect that the fullscreen state was changed.
In the cases where we support the binding layout keyword, use it for more than binding UBO location.
This changes it so it is supported for samplers as well.
Instances when this is enabled is if a device supports GL_ARB_shading_language_420pack, or if it supports GLES 3.10.
ffmpeg 2.0 changed requirements for the FFV1 encoder and made them more strict,
requiring more fields of the input frame to be initialized. Explicitly setting
pixfmt, width and height solve the EINVAL issues with FFV1 encoding.
