This improves the speed of verifying Wii WIA/RVZ files.
For me, the verification speed for LZMA2-compressed files
has gone from 11-12 MiB/s to 13-14 MiB/s.
One thing VolumeVerifier does to achieve parallelism is to
compute hashes for one chunk of data while reading the next
chunk of data. In master, when reading data from a Wii
partition, each such chunk is 32 KiB. This is normally fine,
but with WIA and RVZ it leads to rather lopsided read times
(without the compute times being lopsided): The first 32 KiB
of each 2 MiB takes a long time to read, and the remaining
part of the 2 MiB can be read nearly instantly. (The WIA/RVZ
code has to read the entire 2 MiB in order to compute hashes
which appear at the beginning of the 2 MiB, and then caches
the result afterwards.) This leads to us at times not doing
much reading and at other times not doing much computation.
To improve this, this change makes us use 2 MiB chunks
instead of 32 KiB chunks when reading from Wii partitions.
(block = 32 KiB, group = 2 MiB)
This can't actually happen in practice due to how WAD files work,
but it's very easy to add support for thanks to the last commit,
so we might as well add support for it.
The performance gains of doing this aren't too important since you
normally wouldn't run into any disc image that has overlapping blocks
(which by extension means overlapping partitions), but this change also
lets us get rid of things like VolumeVerifier's mutex that used to
exist just for the sake of handling overlapping blocks.
Panic alerts in DiscIO can potentially be very annoying since
large amounts of them can pop up when loading the game list
if you have some particularly weird files in your game list.
This was a much bigger problem back in 5.0 with its
"Tried to decrypt data from a non-Wii volume" panic alert, but
I figured I would take it all the way and remove the remaining
panic alerts that can show up when loading the game list.
I have exempted uses of ASSERT/ASSERT_MSG since they indicate
a bug in Dolphin rather than a malformed file.
The loop in WIARVZFileReader::Chunk::Read could terminate
prematurely if the size argument was smaller than the size
of an exception list which had only been partially loaded.
Some of the device names can be ambiguous and require fully or partly
qualifying the name (e.g. IOS::HLE::FS::) in a somewhat verbose way.
Additionally, insufficiently qualified names are prone to breaking.
Consider the example of IOS::HLE::FS:: (namespace) and
IOS::HLE::Device::FS (class). If we use FS::Foo in a file that doesn't
know about the class, everything will work fine. However, as soon as
Device::FS is declared via a header include or even just forward
declared, that code will cease to compile because FS:: now resolves
to Device::FS if FS::Foo was used in the Device namespace.
It also leads to having to write IOS::ES:: to access ES types and
utilities even for code that is already under the IOS namespace.
The fix for this is simple: rename the device classes and give them
a "device" suffix in their names if the existing ones may be ambiguous.
This makes it clear whether we're referring to the device class or to
something else.
This is not any longer to type, considering it lets us get rid of the
Device namespace, which is now wholly unnecessary.
There are no functional changes in this commit.
A future commit will fix unnecessarily qualified names.
We want to use positional arguments in translatable strings
that have more than one argument so that translators can change
the order of them, but the question is: Should we also use
positional arguments in translatable strings with only one
argument? I think it makes most sense that way, partially
so that translators don't even have to be aware of the
non-positional syntax and partially because "translatable
strings use positional arguments" is an easier rule for us
to remember than "transitional strings which have more than
one argument use positional arguments". But let me know if
you have a different opinion.
Fixes the following warning:
../../../../../../Core\DiscIO/DirectoryBlob.h:156:3: warning: explicitly defaulted move constructor is implicitly deleted [-Wdefaulted-function-deleted]
DirectoryBlobReader(DirectoryBlobReader&&) = default;
^
../../../../../../Core\DiscIO/DirectoryBlob.h:205:22: note: move constructor of 'DirectoryBlobReader' is implicitly deleted because field 'm_encryption_cache' has a deleted move constructor
WiiEncryptionCache m_encryption_cache;
^
Once nice benefit of fmt is that we can use positional arguments
in localizable strings. This a feature which has been
requested for the Korean translation of strings like
"Errors were found in %zu blocks in the %s partition."
and which will no doubt be useful for other languages too.

By calling ZSTD_CCtx_setPledgedSrcSize, we can let zstd know
how large a chunk is going to be before which start compressing
it, which lets zstd avoid allocating more memory than needed
for various internal buffers. This greatly reduces the RAM usage
when using a high compression level with a small chunk size,
and doesn't have much of an effect in other circumstances.
A side effect of calling ZSTD_CCtx_setPledgedSrcSize is that
zstd by default will write the uncompressed size into the
compressed data stream as metadata. In order to save space,
and since the decompressed size can be figured out through
the structure of the RVZ format anyway, we disable writing
the uncompressed size by setting ZSTD_c_contentSizeFlag to 0.
It's possible (but rare) for a WIA or RVZ file to support
this for some partitions but not all, and for the game and
the blob code to disagree on how large a partition is.
The heuristic was not allocating enough space for Metroid: Other M,
at least when using the default settings. (This didn't break the
file, it just caused some headers to be placed at the end of the
file instead of at the start and wasted a few hundred kilobytes.)
The new hash check catches essentially all desync problems
that VolumeVerifier can catch, so from the user's perspective,
such problems will result in Dolphin refusing to start the
game on netplay rather than actually getting a desync.
