You may want to read the PR #2047 comments before reading this.
Dolphin attempts to support an unencrypted type of Wii discs
that apparently is identified by a 4-byte integer at 0x60
being non-zero. I don't know what discs (if any) would be
using that format, so I haven't been able to test Dolphin's
support for it, but it has probably been broken for a while.
The old implementation is very short but also strange.
In CreateVolumeFromFilename, we read a 4-byte integer from
0x60, and if it's non-zero, we create a CVolumeGC object
instead of a CVolumeWiiCrypted object. This might seem like
it makes no sense, but it presumably worked in the past
because IsVolumeWiiDisc used to check the volume type by
reading the magic word for Wii straight from the disc,
meaning that CVolumeGC objects representing unencrypted Wii
discs would be treated as Wii discs by pretty much all of
Dolphin's code except for the volume implementation code.
(It wasn't possible to simply use CVolumeWiiCrypted, because
that class only handled encrypted discs, like the name says.)
However, that stopped working as intended because of ace0607.
And furthermore, bb93336 made it even more broken by making
parts of Dolphin expect that data read from Wii discs needed
to be decrypted (rather than the volume implementation
implicitly deciding whether to decrypt when Read was called).
Disclaimer: Like I said before, I haven't been able to test
any of this because I don't have any discs that use this
unencrypted Wii disc format, so this is all theoretical.
Later, PR #2047 tried to remove Dolphin's support for
the unencrypted Wii disc format because seemingly no
discs used it, but the PR got closed without being merged.
At the end of that PR, I said that I would make a new PR
with a better implementation for the format after PR #2353
was merged. Now that PR #2353 is merged (two years later...)
and PR #5521 is merged, the new implementation was easy to
make, and here it is!
Untested.
Normal users don't care about it. In fact, people care so
little about it that the Wii implementation of it was broken
starting from when it was implemented (eb65601) to 7 years
later (e0a47c1), apparently without anyone reporting it.
- coef: Explicitly set 23 different values that are used by GBA UCode,
and tweaked overall parameters to more closely match those 23 values.
- irom: Moved a few functions to their proper places, updated BootUCode
to configure DMA transfers using AX registers as well as IX registers
(the GBA UCode uses this to do two sequential transfers in one call),
and added partial functions used by GBA UCode.
All functions were reverse-engineered solely based off of observed
effects on the virtual machine: register states before-and-after, dmem
interactions, and DMA transfers. The specific coefficients were observed
being read from dmem, and must be exactly those values to function
properly. I have no knowledge of how the official ROM implements these
functions, or how it is implemented overall.
Tested with The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures, Final Fantasy
Crystal Chronicles, and Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg (to download
ChuChu Rocket!).
`P_REG1C` had the same value as `P_ACCL`, so was causing spurious errors
when used with ACCM registers. Gcdsptool (which calls this `P_ACCLM`)
gives it the value `P_REG | 0x1c10` instead, and handles errors in the
same block as other REG## enums.
This makes the interface slightly cleaner and a bit more consistent
with the other getters. Still not fully the same, since the others
don't really handle failures with std::optional; but at least the
value is returned by value now, as opposed to having the function
take a pointer to a u64.
This gets rid of some assumptions that non-DiscIO code was making about
volume types. It's better to encapsulate as many of the volume type
differences as possible in DiscIO.
Made possible by PR #2353.
This is more reliable, as this guarantees subsystems will be
shut down in the same order they were initialised (if they were
initialised). It also allows us to stop keeping track of what needs to
be shut down manually and just return in case of errors.
This should prevent the emulator from getting totally stuck when
the boot process does fail.
This makes it hard to support different boot params for different boot
types. We should not be making the assumption that Dolphin will
always be booting directly from a file (and in particular, only
using a string).
It's incompatible with future changes that will allow Dolphin to boot
a NAND title properly from well, the NAND, as opposed to booting from
WADs. (And no, treating the title TMD as a "bootable" path doesn't
count. Especially when that approach won't work with NAND images
or IOS LLE.)
And it's confusing to expose this functionality from the UI. It's
pretty bad for UX to change the play button's behaviour depending on
whether the user has launched something before, configured a default
file to boot, added a directory to their game paths.
This commit moves the write function to where it should be (IOS),
especially when ES::ImportTicket() is the only place to use it.
Prevents misusing the ticket import function, and removes one unsafe
direct write to the NAND that does not go through IOS.
This also fixes the destination path: the session root is the one which
should be used for determining the ticket path, not the configured one.
The whole NANDContentLoader stuff is truly awful and will be removed
as soon as possible.
For now, this fixes a bug that was exposed by std::optional::operator*.
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++.
`MainWindow` initializes a number of input interfaces but never shuts
them down. This was causing a crash-after-exit on macOS where the
ControllerInterface backend stores a `std::thread` object in a static
variable and only stops it when ControllerInterface::Shutdown is called.
