This allows for some very primitive auto-automated testing, by comparing known good frames.
As this happens on the TA level, it doesn't actually require rendering (and thus it's server friendly)
Two new config entries under the new [testing] namespace control behavior
- ta.HashLogFile, file where data should be logged, empty if not logging
- ta.HashCheckFile, past log to check against, empty if not checking
The emu will crash via verify if the logs don't match, and exit(1) if they do
- Basic pixel pipeline, a bit better triangle tests, specialized render handlers
- Textures w/ point filtering. Not very smart is it goes 32 -> 16 -> 32 bpp, but works.
- The texture cache is shared rather inelegantly w/ OpenGL one
- Culling
- PParam sorting (shared w/ GL)
The texturing and color blending paths are ugly and slow
- Adapted for indexed, async rendering, shared ta decoder
- This blits via a quick-and-hacky GDI blitter for now
- SSE/MMX intrins based, so not very portable
- A rather not good "reference" implementation
- At least, it's not terribly slow though
- GetTexture moved to Renderer interface
THIS IS A MESS. Sorry @angelXwind :p. We'll have to clean up and merge for r8, but most of the nasty work is there.
What works:
- full init, memalloc, mprotects, etc
- boot
- gles2
What doesn't:
- Exceptions for page faults
- Breaks texture cache
- Breaks dynarec because of fastpath
- segfaults don't work, needs special mach exc_server magic that still eludes me after 5 hours
- Dynarecs. RWX issues, and broken buffer mappings. Also some minnor linking stuff (most of it is taken care of)
- Audio. I just killed it off.
- All of the ui. Was getting in the way of me not knowing how to edit story boards...
- Input
Also, merged branch 'skmp/mac86-hackport' into skmp/ios-wip
Have fun~
- Texkill needs to be done before texture allocation, which is now done during parsing (texture-sync update)
- palette_update needs to be called from the emu thread, before kicking off the render
Fixes#141, "Main menus on POD and Speed Devil show up black"
Seems like the TA doesn't touch any of the memory structures before first write (and probably later on, but we're not gonna support corrupted ta streams for now)
According to p1pkin
«At least in SpeedDevils, at title screen game do a bit weird thing
- Init TA context
- Send lists to TA
- Init the same context again
- Start Render
so, if you are clear stored poly/vertex data at "TA_LIST_INIT" pvr2 reg write - you'll get black screen instead game title»

- Clipping is done on the SH4 side, garbage might be outside the screen
- Mod vols aren't drawn anyway for now
- I wonder how much does this cost on the rend-thread?
- make ta_skip to ta frame skipping instead of skipping parsing entierly. it handles 1 out of every (N+1) frames.
- re purpose rend to unstable opts, as pvr.rend is of no real use right now
