This adds the functionality of sending the host's save data (raw memory
cards, as well as GCI files and Wii saves with a matching GameID) to
all other clients. The data is compressed using LZO1X to greatly reduce
its size while keeping compression/decompression fast. Save
synchronization is enabled by default, and toggleable with a checkbox
in the NetPlay dialog.
On clicking start, if the option is enabled, game boot will be delayed
until all players have received the save data sent by the host. If any
player fails to receive it properly, boot will be cancelled to prevent
desyncs.
Instead of globbing things under an ambiguous Common.h header, move
compiler-specifics over to Compiler.h. This gives us a dedicated home
for anything related to compilers that we want to make functional across
all compilers that we support.
This moves us a little closer to eliminating Common.h entirely.
This makes it easier to generate random numbers or fill a buffer with
random data in a cryptographically secure way.
This also replaces existing usages of RNG functions in the codebase:
* <random> is pretty hard to use correctly, and std::random_device does
not give enough guarantees about its results (it's
implementation-defined, non cryptographically secure and could be
deterministic on some platforms).
Doing things correctly is error prone and verbose.
* rand() is terrible and should not be used especially in crypto code.
Keeps all of the floating-point utility functions in their own file to
keep them all together. This also provides a place for other
general-purpose floating-point functions to be added in the future,
which will be necessary when improving the flag-setting within the
interpreter.
It's not common code that could be reused for, say, Citra;
it's absolutely specific to Wii emulation and only used by the Dolphin
core, so let's move it there.
Another reason for doing this is to avoid having Common depend on Core.
This adds a lightweight, easy to use std::variant wrapper intended to
be used as a return type for functions that can return either a result
or an error code.
Ideally Common.h wouldn't be a header in the Common library, and instead be renamed to something else, like PlatformCompatibility.h or something, but even then, there's still some things in the header that don't really fall under that label
This moves the version strings out to their own version header that doesn't dump a bunch of other unrelated things into scope, like what Common.h was doing.
This also places them into the Common namespace, as opposed to letting them sit in the global namespace.
Since all queues are FIFO data structures, the name wasn't informative
as to why you'd use it over a normal queue. I originally thought it had
something to do with the hardware graphics FIFO.
This renames it using the common acronym SPSC, which stands for
single-producer single-consumer, and is most commonly used to talk about
lock-free data structures, both of which this is.
The class NonCopyable is, like the name says, supposed to disallow
copying. But should it allow moving?
For a long time, NonCopyable used to not allow moving. (It declared
a deleted copy constructor and assigment operator without declaring
a move constructor and assignment operator, making the compiler
implicitly delete the move constructor and assignment operator.)
That's fine if the classes that inherit from NonCopyable don't need
to be movable or if writing the move constructor and assignment
operator by hand is fine, but that's not the case for all classes,
as I discovered when I was working on the DirectoryBlob PR.
Because of that, I decided to make NonCopyable movable in c7602cc,
allowing me to use NonCopyable in DirectoryBlob.h. That was however
an unfortunate decision, because some of the classes that inherit
from NonCopyable have incorrect behavior when moved by default-
generated move constructors and assignment operators, and do not
explicitly delete the move constructors and assignment operators,
relying on NonCopyable being non-movable.
So what can we do about this? There are four solutions that I can
think of:
1. Make NonCopyable non-movable and tell DirectoryBlob to suck it.
2. Keep allowing moving NonCopyable, and expect that classes that
don't support moving will delete the move constructor and
assignment operator manually. Not only is this inconsistent
(having classes disallow copying one way and disallow moving
another way), but deleting the move constructor and assignment
operator manually is too easy to forget compared to how tricky
the resulting problems are.
3. Have one "MovableNonCopyable" and one "NonMovableNonCopyable".
It works, but it feels rather silly...
4. Don't have a NonCopyable class at all. Considering that deleting
the copy constructor and assignment operator only takes two lines
of code, I don't see much of a reason to keep NonCopyable. I
suppose that there was more of a point in having NonCopyable back
in the pre-C++11 days, when it wasn't possible to use "= delete".
I decided to go with the fourth one (like the commit title says).
The implementation of the commit is fairly straight-forward, though
I would like to point out that I skipped adding "= delete" lines
for classes whose only reason for being uncopyable is that they
contain uncopyable classes like File::IOFile and std::unique_ptr,
because the compiler makes such classes uncopyable automatically.
Too much boilerplate that is duplicated if we use curl directly.
Let's add a simple wrapper class that hides the implementation details
and just allows to simply make HTTP requests and get responses.
std::optional makes a few things a bit neater and less error prone.
However, we still cannot use C++17 (unfortunately), so this commit
adds an implementation of std::optional that we can use right now.
Based on https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorflow/core/lib/gtl/optional.h
which seems to be fairly similar to C++17's <optional> and standards
compliant. It's one of the few implementations that handle propagating
type traits like copy constructibility, just like libc++/libstdc++.
This moves all the byte swapping utilities into a header named Swap.h.
A dedicated header is much more preferable here due to the size of the
code itself. In general usage throughout the codebase, CommonFuncs.h was
generally only included for these functions anyway. These being in their
own header avoids dumping the lesser used utilities into scope. As well
as providing a localized area for more utilities related to byte
swapping in the future (should they be needed). This also makes it nicer
to identify which files depend on the byte swapping utilities in
particular.
Since this is a completely new header, moving the code uncovered a few
indirect includes, as well as making some other inclusions unnecessary.
