Persistent is slower (at least on my gs dump) because data is put
in host instead of the video memory
I don't understand why upload the data directly to the video memory
is faster
Initially we copy pitch by line in the PBO and tell the dma to only
use the first valid byte.
Now, we only copy useful data to the PBO. It reduce the copy and PBO memory requirement.
It seems a bit faster on native resolution
Group opengl calls into a nice name.
Apitrace shows them in a tree format that support folding. Previously it
was a long flat list (10K-40K of lines by frame)
I align the call number with the internal s_n variable. This way it is
easy to map GSdx dump output with the GL debugger :)
Initial code use a PBO to do asynchronous transfer. It is silly because
GSdx doesn't use this free time. So let's use a sync read. Same speed but
no PBO to manage.
-- slower (but that a debug feature)
++ smaller (40x-50x)
++ native support of alpha
Require libpng++ and the define ENABLE_OGL_PNG
Note: depth is not supported yet.
ogl_texture_storage 1 creates texture corruption.
Advance date is too slow, code need to be updated (properly) to uses 2 passes only not 3
Maybe one could be enough (sometimes)
Copy the full line into the pbo. Dma will only take GL_UNPACK_ROW_LENGTH
- increase memcpy size by 2 in the pbo
+ single memcpy will be faster and can use sse
Enable buffer_storage extension:
* GL_CLIENT_STORAGE_BIT was required (it is the duty of TexSubImage to copy data into the GPU mem)
* Enable the extension by default
Null is equivalent to a clear to 0.
Note: Code is not yet used because both stencil and depth are cleared.
Future note: stencil can potentially be replaced by load_store_image
Add the --gles build option to the linux main script
Ifdef all gl code not supported on gles3 (note some will be reenabled for gles3.1)
Note: it probably doesn't run anymore. My Nvidia driver doesn't support
yet egl/gles so I can't test it. Feel free to contribute.
Improve arb_buffer_storage implementation
Try harder to align the texture buffer
Strangely arb_buffer_storage is 3 times slower on my PC (nvidia)
Tester are welcome! Open the ini file
"ogl_texture_storage = 1" <= enable the extension
"ogl_texture_storage = 0" <= disable the extension
Note: you need an opengl 4.4 driver or one that support arb_buffer_storage (i.e. not catalyst)
* properly detect gl nv depth extension
* Always show the hack on the gui. Add a new hack option for DATE (gl4.2) only
* Save the scan mode on linux too (f7)
* hopefully fix some crash on some drivers... (ensure aligment 256 bits alignment, and if not use std memcpy)

* use same path as game index db for cheats and cheats_ws
* install the new cheat zip file on cmake and debian installer

* try to use more subroutine on VS&PS, unfortunately hit a driver crash!
* Call Attach/DetachContext through GSDevice so I can unmap currently mapped buffer
* Implement glsl part of GL_ARB_bindless texture, again hit another driver crash!
* various fix of GL_ARB_buffer_storage. Basic benchmark show only improvement on 'cold' case, I guess it will improve smoothness
* try to fix GL_clear_texture, no success so far. It seem the extension is limited to basic texture (aka no depth/stencil)

* GL_ARB_shader_subroutine for perf
fix for nvidia => add missing shader declaration. Nvidia got +4fps on colin3 :)
For the moment only 2 PS parameters are supported. Code need to be extended to support others games that often
switch shader program (like xenosaga).
require GL4 class hardware and the option override_GL_ARB_shader_subroutine = 1
Note: strangely on AMD linux it is slower!
* GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store for accuraccy (Date)
Use a signed integer texture and reenable color buffer writing
Current status: Amagami_transparency.gs & P3_battle_shadows.gs are now working on Nvidia with a small perf impact.
Current implementation detail:
1/ setup the standard stencil as before
2/ on remaining pixel, draw once to compute first primitive that will write a fail alpha value.
3/ final draw based on primitive id of step 2
Note: I think we would get a bad behavior if depth test&mask are enabled on step 2/3
Note2: on my limited testcase the perf impact was on CPU. It would be possible to merge step1&2 to nullifying it (could
even be faster actually), however it would require more GPU power.
Again require GL4 class hardware. And the option UserHacks_DateGL4 = 1
