Analytics:
- Incorporated fix to allow the full set of analytics that was recommended by
spotlightishere
BuildMacOSUniversalBinary:
- The x86_64 slice for a universal binary is now built for 10.12
- The universal binary build script now can be configured though command line
options instead of modifying the script itself.
- os.system calls were replaced with equivalent subprocess calls
- Formatting was reworked to be more PEP 8 compliant
- The script was refactored to make it more modular
- The com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation entitlement was removed
Memory Management:
- Changed the JITPageWrite*Execute*() functions to incorporate support for
nesting
Other:
- Fixed several small lint errors
- Fixed doc and formatting mistakes
- Several small refactors to make things clearer
This commit adds support for compiling Dolphin for ARM on MacOS so that it can
run natively on the M1 processors without running through Rosseta2 emulation
providing a 30-50% performance speedup and less hitches from Rosseta2.
It consists of several key changes:
- Adding support for W^X allocation(MAP_JIT) for the ARM JIT
- Adding the machine context and config info to identify the M1 processor
- Additions to the build system and docs to support building universal binaries
- Adding code signing entitlements to access the MAP_JIT functionality
- Updating the MoltenVK libvulkan.dylib to a newer version with M1 support
Avoids the need to copy the *.mo files manually *and* more importantly
this ensures that the mo files are always recreated if the build
output directory is cleared.
It is my opinion that nobody should use NKit disc images without
being aware of the drawbacks of them. Since it seems like almost
nobody who is using NKit disc images knows what NKit is (hmm, now
how could that have happened...?), I am adding a warning to Dolphin
so that you can't run NKit disc images without finding out about the
drawbacks. In case someone really does want to use NKit disc images,
the warning has a "Don't show this again" option. Unfortunately, I
can't retroactively add the warning where it's most needed:
in Dolphin 5.0, which does not support Wii NKit disc images.
This is done by:
1) Implementing said protocol in a new controller input class CemuHookUDPServer.
2) Adding functionality in the WiimoteEmu class for pushing that motion input to the emulated Wiimote and MotionPlus.
3) Suitably modifying the UI for configuring an Emulated Wii Remote.
We were doing quite a bit of unnecessary work within CMake to handle and
make sure the necessary libraries were copied over. That approach has
several downsides:
1. It's not possible to handle multi-configuration generators (like
Visual Studio) in an easy manner. The existing script would fail to
copy over the necessary libraries if one configuration was built, and
then another one was built.
2. If you have Qt already installed (properly) by the official binary,
the existing script would copy *all* dlls even if they weren't
necessary. This is pretty bad, since it can waste quite a bit of
space.
Instead, we can just delegate off to the official deployment application
bundled with Qt's libraries that determines what the necessary libraries
are and copies them over as necessary. This also means we can properly
support both release and debug binaries in the same directory, like how
the old handcrafted Visual Studio project files allowed.
Its sufficient to simply specify a debug postfix instead of using an
separate variable. What's nice about this approach is that it will
actually work :p
Previously the code wouldn't work for multi-configuration generators
like Visual Studio.
