The VMU which was written to disk was never initialized and therefore consisted only of zeroes.
After saving for the first time the VMU was corrupted.
Changes:
* Not only initialize the VMU in memory but also write the correct contents to disk
* If an existing VMU consists only of zeroes overwrite it with the initial empty VMU
Originally ported from nullDC to libretro in commits:

Modified for use w/ reicast per-game configuration
A new function was introduced to abstract the setup of input devices for each os: os_SetupInput().
I hope I implemented this everywhere correctly and the behaviour is identical to before.
The new function mcfg_CreateNAOMIJamma() creates the NAOMI Jamma interface and is hidden behind a compile flag (same as before).
The previous function mcfg_CreateDevices() was renamed to mcfg_CreateDevicesFromConfig() because it creates the devices based on the configuration (``nb`` setting).
Don't expose mcfg_Create() directly, but use a proxy method mcfg_CreateController() to create the complete controller.
Using evdev the ``nb``-setting in the ``emu.cfg`` is no longer necessary (see #970) as the devices get created while initializing the controllers.
Moved the ``switch`` to it's own function.
This adds support for separate config and data dirs.
On Linux, these will be compliant XDG Basedir Specification, i.e.
XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_CONFIG_DIRS (or XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_DATA_DIRS
respectively). On all other platforms, there currently just set to the
homedir path (so no previous behaviour has been changed).
If reicast wants to read and write a data file, it just calls
get_data_path("/samplefile.txt"). If it does not need to write to
that file, it just uses get_data_path("/samplefile.txt", false). That
way, we can also use system-wide dirs (like /usr/share/reicast on
linux), that the user usually doesn't have write access to.
The same applies for config file, where you use get_config_path(args)
respectively.
- Import naomi code from nullDC, modify and cleanup
- Only unprotected dimm-board support, custom lst files
- Still a compile option
- Boots naomi bios and some games, no input yet
This adds the ability to simply close the emulator when launched
externally and prevents changes designed for linux from generating
conflicting controller configurations on Android (and may be needed for
iOS as well).
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~
