If dcache is enabled when the game starts, initializing the fastmem
arena is still useful in case the user changes the dcache setting.
And initializing it doesn't really cost anything.
Preparation for the next commit.
JitArm64 has been conflating these two flags. Most of the stuff that's
been guarded by fastmem_arena checks in fact requires fastmem.
When we have fastmem_arena without fastmem, it would be possible to do
things a bit more efficiently than what this commit does, but it's
non-trivial and therefore I will leave it out of this PR. With this
commit, we effectively have the same behavior as before this PR - plus
the added ability to toggle fastmem with a cache clear.
This is needed so that the checks added in the previous commit will be
reevaluated if the value of m_enable_dcache changes.
JitArm64 was already recompiling its asm routines on cache clear by
necessity. It doesn't have the same setup as Jit64 where the asm
routines are in a separate region, so clearing the JitArm64 cache
results in the asm routines being cleared too.
Some code paths in EmuCodeBlock.cpp that were checking fastmem_arena
should really also be checking m_enable_dcache.
Because JitArm64 centralizes more or less all memory access to the
EmitBackpatchRoutine function and because that function already
contained a check, JitArm64 works fine without the additional checks
added by this commit. Regardless, I added the checks to MMU.cpp instead
of EmuCodeBlock.cpp where applicable so they would be available to
JitArm64. Maybe one day JitArm64 will need them if its code gets
restructured.
The code previously did this indirectly via `std::map<double, int>`, the key being the timestamp, which required a questionable workaround for the case where multiple states have the same timestamp. By having a particular combination of timestamps in the on-disk savestates, you could cause this workaround to infinitely loop, locking up Dolphin. This avoids this completely by refactoring the logic and just using `std::vector` instead.
Since ccf92a3e56, recording fifologs multiple times after launching dolphin caused all initial state to not be saved (the initial contents of bpmem, cpmem, etc were all zeroed out). For some games, this was not noticeable, as most registers were set each frame, but for others, this resulted in completely broken fifologs. (Note that recording fifologs also required 05181f6b88 and 9e0755a598 to be cherry-picked due to other, since fixed, regressions.)
This was because previously, `Renderer::CheckFifoRecording` was called every frame, but ccf92a3e56 changed it into a callback (`m_end_of_frame_event`) that was removed when recording ended. Thus, before, `OpcodeDecoder::g_record_fifo_data = IsRecording()` was called when `IsRecording()` returned false, but after that commit `g_record_fifo_data` never got changed back to false, so the check for `was_recording` only ever passed on the first fifolog recorded (even after stopping and starting a game).
There may still be another issue lurking, as I'm not sure if all broken fifologs were caused by recording multiple fifologs (for instance, on https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13377, only one fifolog was initially uploaded, but it was affected by an issue with the same symptoms as this).
Instructions referencing registers r8-r15 take an additional byte to
encode. `reg_downcount` may be assigned to one of these registers, so it
is a small size win to store the downcount value in `RSCRATCH` first.
Before:
33 D2 xor edx,edx
44 8B 6D 64 mov r13d,dword ptr [rbp+64h]
45 85 ED test r13d,r13d
7E 30 jle 0000023546B43F6D
44 8B B5 D4 02 00 00 mov r14d,dword ptr [rbp+2D4h]
41 8B C5 mov eax,r13d
BF 07 00 00 00 mov edi,7
F7 F7 div eax,edi
After:
33 D2 xor edx,edx
8B 45 64 mov eax,dword ptr [rbp+64h]
85 C0 test eax,eax
7E 30 jle 000001AFBBAE359D
44 8B B5 D4 02 00 00 mov r14d,dword ptr [rbp+2D4h]
44 8B E8 mov r13d,eax
BF 07 00 00 00 mov edi,7
F7 F7 div eax,edi
This value is used in a multiplication. The result of this
multiplication is then subtracted from m_base. By negating m_dec, we are
free to use an addition instead.
On x64, this saves an instruction.
Split the "welcome" messages letting players know achievements are active into a separate method that gets called (currently) after a number of frames to ensure that the emulator has started properly and has somewhere to display the messages.
