On my system, /dev/input/event13 (evdev interface) and /dev/input/js0 (joystick interface) correspond to the DS3 on my system. User/group ownership are both root.
With /dev/input/event13 at 0640 and /dev/input/js0 at 0644 - SDL2 detects no pad, SDL1 detects a 19 button, 27 axis pad
With /dev/input/event13 at 0666 and /dev/input/js0 at 0644 - Both SDL1 and SDL2 report a 19 button, 4 axis pad.
SDL2 only uses the evdev interface, SDL1 uses the evdev interface but if that fails, it uses the joystick interface.
The purpose is to emulate correctly destination alpha factor
An alpha channel of 128 is 1.0 in the GS but only ~0.5 in the GPU
I think few draw call use destination alpha so impact on perf must remains small.
Actually it can partially be done with GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store
extension. However all drivers that support shader_image have
texture barrier too.
The idea is to use a floating texture to accumulate the data and
then do a final postprocessing pass to apply the modulo
v2:
* use bounding box to
* fix vertex corruption issue
* use negative number in shader which allow to use half float (+12
fps@4x)
Previous CopyRect function does a memcopy without conversion.
This function will allow to use different format for input/output. Just a
possibility for the future
Basically the code does the alpha multiplication in the shader therefore
the blend unit only does a pure addition. This way the multiplication is
accurate and accurate_blending doesn't requires a costly barrier.
This code also avoid variable duplication to make the code more separated.
Hopefully blending can be done in a separated function
It is preliminary work to support fast color clipping with HDR
v2: fix assertion compilation failure
v3: fix regression in not accurate mode
v3: Cs * As/Af is not an accumulation
Those cases don't need the Cd addition and were already optimized anyway
Fix a regression on GoW2
Do DATE algo selection before blending. This way we can detect bad
interaction.
Regroup all blending/colclip in a single block. Avoid to check abe &&
rt multiple times.
v2: only enable sw blending when abe is true
The updated medium level will run for all sprites. It helps sotc blooming effect and it remains
fast enough to be enabled by default (at least on 3D games)
The new high level will run for all sprites + color clipping
