-Implemented GIF_MODE Masking fixed the All Star Pro Wrestling series slowness/hanging.
DMA:
-Standardize the IPU and SIF dma's to use the standard chain handling in hw.c, fixed up some DMA resuming stuff in the forementioned units, VIF, GIF and SPR.
-Added some warnings for DMA stall control which isn't implemented, hopefully somebody will find a game that does it so we can add/test it :)

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

Everblue: Slightly messy fix, not as nice as id hope, but it seems to work, we need to remember VU programs written to the VU so we can check if an unpack is modifying it. This retains the behaviour of the Snowblind engines whilst fixing everblue.
Hitman 2: Our vif0/1VUFinish() routing which works in conjunction with the delays wasn't paying attention to if the VIF was stalled or not and reran it before the game wanted it to, now fixed.

-Fixed a bug stopping GT4 running.
-VIF now waits if the VU is busy rather than spinning, causing huge slowdowns.
-Filled in some bits i missed

Path3 Masking: Fixed a bug which caused persona 3 not to boot, previous a hack had been put in place to get around this.
VIF: Fixed a VIF error with the rare game Realta Nua, now goes through the prologue correctly. Game requires the EE timing hack to get rid of most of the noise (Path3 masking problem with new GIF unit, unfixable).
Expecting bugs, I will be monitoring this.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5147 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also added a couple important global variables to be savestated (breaks old state compat).

-Did same code for VIF0 just to standardize things a little.
If this breaks anything let me know, and make sure it is this revision please.

* Writes via 16 and 8 bit ops now use 32-bit read/modify/write operations by default; which should enable nearly complete support for all such operations (instead of the formerly spotty coverage before).
* Eliminated almost all former 8/16-bit specific register operations. All code shares the same 32 bit handlers now.
* Completely revamped the developer trace logs for hardware registers! *ALL* registers are logged now, complete with address, name, and value being read/written (and nicely formatted!).
* Handlers are now fully page-based using templated functions (minor speedup)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3704 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added __fi and __ri, which are abbreviations for __forceinline and __releaseinline.
* Added some static qualifiers to functions in mVU, MMI ops, and others where appropriate.
* Removed some unnecessary __fastcall qualifiers (since GCC gets funny sometimes when you combine __fastcall and inlining).
* Made _1mb, _16mb, _1gb values common to all emulation code (moved from newVif/mvu to Common.h) -- they're useful! :)

DevNotes: DevCon logs are now available in *Release* builds as well as Devel builds, and can be enabled from the Console window's "Sources" menu. They are disabled by default in Release builds, and are always enabled regardless of the ini setting in devel builds. Debug logs are still strictly available in debug builds only.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3609 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
-Fixed up some path3 masking stuff, trying a slightly different approach too.

Games
- Resident Evil Dead Aim flickering graphics fixed.
- Flatout games should now boot everytime (instead of randomly)
- Sega Superstar Tennis flashing fixed
- Destruction Derby graphics fixed (NTSC confirmed, PAL unsure)
- Tenchu Fatal Shadows flickering textures fixed, Issue 748
- Spyro Hero's Tail should boot again, Issue 746
General Info
- General reworking of the GS paths with all paths prioritizing more correctly.
- XGKICK can stall if another GS transfer is in progress
- Major reworking of Path3 masking, could still be combined with normal Path3 transfers, but lets get it working first :P
- Taken in to account a few conditions which could have caused VIF to lock up/crash when stalling on ends.
- Unreversed GIF and SPR and VIF so its the normal way round
- all DMA paths should now resume correctly after being stopped by hardware
- GIF FIFO now actually transfers stuff :P
- VIF CMD's simulated by the length of the interrupts at the end.
Phew, i think that's everything :S
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3274 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
- Improved handling of suspended DMA's, Also some traps in case DMA values are changed during suspend (please report if they don't start with 5 or 6)
- Better handling of GS Path priorities, this improves many Path3 Masked games such as Star Wars Episode 3, Gran Turismo 4 (slightly) and Videos like Digital Devil Saga/FFX
- Removed Voodoo Cycles
- Doesn't kill everything this time :P
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2853 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
So this reverts all VIF and GIF related code of that revision,
leaving only the changes that were made to IPU.
Compatibility should be fixed again, with the added bonus of lots more videos working.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2828 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
- IPU 1 DMA rewritten - now much more readable, less hacky. A couple of games are still slightly picky, but overall compatability is similar (if not better in some cases)
- Reverse VIF transfers figured out and implemented (mostly)! - There are still some problems with this, will work on it.
- Improved GS PATH transfer control, now PATH2 and 3 cant transfer when PATH1 is, PATH3 cant when PATH2 is and so on.
- IPU now waits for ended GS transfers, for some reason this was screwing videos (mainly from PATH2) and causing them to be torn, which the original voodoo cycles addition fixed.
Note: You may see a lot of "Double IRQ on DMA 4" messages. At the moment these are unavoidable but aren't actually causing any issues. I do know about them :P
Feel free to negative is I've seriously broke something lol
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2822 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
-Rewrote VIF0 DMA to work like VIF1, report any breakage from it.
-Tweaked a couple of cycle bits when stalling VIF
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2766 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
not sure if any game was using the code in hwwrite.cpp, so i couldn't test the fix.
the old code was wrong though (unless it was trying to implement some undocumented feature which i doubt).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2516 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
There is a lot of code duplication in the vif0/vif1 files, I will probably work on getting them to use common functions.
