At least on some CPUs (I found out about this from the
Arm Cortex-A76 Software Optimization Guide), using X30
with BLR is one cycle slower than using another register.
Previously, eaddr would only be partially initialized in the ipv6 case.
Even if there's no support for it, we may as well ensure that the
variable always has deterministic initialization.
While we're at it, we can make the parameter a const reference, given no
members are modified.
EmulationActivity has an instance of Settings. If you go to
SettingsActivity from EmulationActivity and change some settings,
the changes get saved to disk, but EmulationActivity's Settings
instance still contains the old settings in its map of all
settings (assuming the EmulationActivity was not killed by the
system to save memory). Then, once you're done playing your
game and exit EmulationActivity, EmulationActivity calls
Settings.saveSettings. This call to saveSettings first overwrites
the entire INI file with its map of all settings (which is
outdated) in order to save any legacy settings that have changed
(which they haven't, since the GUI doesn't let you change legacy
settings while a game is running). Then, it asks the new config
system to write the most up-to-date values available for non-legacy
settings, which should make all the settings be up-to-date again.
The problem here is that the new config system would skip writing
to disk if no settings changes had been made since the last time
we asked it to write to disk (i.e. since SettingsActivity exited).
NB: Calling Settings.loadSettings in EmulationActivity.onResume
is not a working solution. I assume this is because
SettingsActivity saves its settings in onStop and not onPause.
The config version should always be incremented whenever config is
changed, regardless of callbacks being suppressed or not.
Otherwise, getters can return stale data until another config change
(with callbacks enabled) happens.
An unfortunately large single commit that deglobalizes the DSP code.
(which I'm very sorry about).
This would have otherwise been extremely difficult to separate due to
extensive use of the globals in very coupling ways that would result in
more scaffolding to work around than is worth it.
Aside from the video code, I believe only the DSP code is the hairiest
to deal with in terms of globals, so I guess it's best to get this dealt
with right off the bat.
A summary of what this commit does:
- Turns the DSPInterpreter into its own class
This is the most involved portion of this change.
The bulk of the changes are turning non-member functions into member
functions that would be situated into the Interpreter class.
- Eliminates all usages to globals within DSPCore.
This generally involves turning a lot of non-member functions into
member functions that are either situated within SDSP or DSPCore.
- Discards DSPDebugInterface (it wasn't hooked up to anything,
and for the sake of eliminating global state, I'd rather get rid of
it than think up ways for this class to be integrated with
everything else.
- Readjusts the DSP JIT to handle calling out to member functions.
In most cases, this just means wrapping respective member function
calles into thunk functions.
Surprisingly, this doesn't even make use of the introduced System class.
It was possible all along to do this without it. We can house everything
within the DSPLLE class, which is quite nice =)
The enumerated LOG_TYPE "OSREPORT" is currently used in both EXI_DeviceIPL.cpp and HLE_OS.cpp. In many games, the multitude of game functions detected by HLE_OS.cpp for OSREPORT logging results in poor log readability. This Pull Request remedies that by adding a new enumerated LOG_TYPE "OSREPORT_HLE" for log usage in HLE_OS.cpp.
In the future, further changing how logging in HLE_OS.cpp works may be desirable. As it is, game functions are detected that send a single character to the log. This is a major source of poor readability.
