The SDK seems to write "default" bounding box values before every draw
(1023 0 1023 0 are the only values encountered so far, which happen to
be the extents allowed by the BP registers) to reset the registers for
comparison in the pixel engine, and presumably to detect whether GX has
updated the registers with real values. Handling these writes and
returning them on read when bounding box emulation is disabled or
unsupported, even without computing real values from rendering, seems
to prevent games from corrupting memory or crashing.
This obviously does not fix any effects that rely on bounding box
emulation, but having the game not clobber its own code/data or just
outright crash is a definite improvement.
VideoCommon: Change the type of BPMemory.scissorOffset to 10bit signed: S32X10Y10
VideoBackends: Fix Software Clipper.PerspectiveDivide function, use BPMemory.scissorOffset instead of hard code 342
BPMEM_TEV_COLOR_ENV + 6 (0xC6) was missing due to a typo. BPMEM_BP_MASK (0xFE) does not lend itself well to documentation with the current FIFO analyzer implementation (since it requires remembering the values in BP memory) but still shouldn't be treated as unknown. BPMEM_TX_SETMODE0_4 and BPMEM_TX_SETMODE1_4 (0xA4-0xAB) were missing entirely.
Additional changes:
- For TevStageCombiner's ColorCombiner and AlphaCombiner, op/comparison and scale/compare_mode have been split as there are different meanings and enums if bias is set to compare. (Shift has also been renamed to scale)
- In TexMode0, min_filter has been split into min_mip and min_filter.
- In TexImage1, image_type is now cache_manually_managed.
- The unused bit in GenMode is now exposed.
- LPSize's lineaspect is now named adjust_for_aspect_ratio.
We want to clear/memset the padding bytes, not just each member,
so using assignment or {} initialization is not an option.
To silence the warnings, cast the object pointer to u8* (which is not
undefined behavior) to make it explicit to the compiler that we want
to fill the object representation.
It seems that the newer version of fmt gets tripped up by bitfields
within structs. However, we can just specify the intended type where
necessary to get around this.
Now that we have an actual interface to manage things, we can stop
duplicating the calls to to the pixel shader manager and remove the
need to remember to actually do so when disabling or enabling the
bounding box.
Rather than expose the bounding box members directly, we can instead
provide an interface for code to use. This makes it nicer to transition
from global data, as the interface function names are already in
place.
Migrates most of VideoCommon over to using fmt, with the exception being
the shader generator code. The shader generators are quite large and
have more corner cases to deal with in terms of conversion (shaders have
braces in them, so we need to make sure to escape them).
Because of the large amount of code that would need to be converted, the
conversion of VideoCommon will be in two parts:
- This change (which converts over the general case string formatting),
- A follow up change that will specifically deal with converting over
the shader generators.
Since the copy X and Y coordinates/sizes are 10-bit, the game can configure a
copy region up to 1024x1024. Hardware tests have found that the number of bytes
written does not depend on the configured stride, instead it is based on the
size registers, writing beyond the length of a single row. The data written
for the pixels which lie outside the EFB bounds does not wrap around instead
returning different colors based on the pixel format of the EFB.
This suggests it's not based on coordinates, but instead on memory addresses.
The effect of a within-bounds size but out-of-bounds offset
(e.g. offset 320,0, size 640,480) are the same.
As it would be difficult to emulate the exact behavior of out-of-bounds reads,
instead of writing the junk data, we don't write anything to RAM at all for
over-sized copies, and clamp to the EFB borders for over-offset copies.
Also makes y_scale a dynamic parameter for EFB copies, as it doesn't
make sense to keep it as part of the uid, otherwise we're generating
redundant shaders.
Tested on a linux Intel Skylake integrated graphics with
blend_func_extended force-disabled, as it's the only platform I have
that doesn't crash with ubershaders and supports fb_fetch

Old message:
"If none of the texture registers have changed and TMEM hasn't been invalidated or changed in other ways, we can blindly reuse the old texture cache entries without rehashing.
Not only does this fix the bloom effect in Spyro: A Hero's Tail (The game abused texture cache) but it will also provide speedups for other games which use the same texture over multiple draw calls, especially when safe texture cache is in use."
Changed the pr per phire's instructions to only return the current texture(s) if none of the texture registers were changed. If any texture register was changed, fall back to the default hashing and rebuilding textures from memory.
