Makes the interface future-proofed for supporting other platforms in the event we ever support platforms with differing pointer sizes. This way, we have a type in place that is always guaranteed to be able to represent a pointer exactly.
This commit: Implements CPU Interrupts, Replaces Cycle Timing for Host
Timing, Reworks the Kernel's Scheduler, Introduce Idle State and
Suspended State, Recreates the bootmanager, Initializes Multicore
system.
* core_timing: Use better reference tracking for EventType.
- Moves ownership of the event to the caller, ensuring we don't fire events for destroyed objects.
- Removes need for unique names - we won't be using this for save states anyways.
StartLrAssignmentMode and StopLrAssignmentMode don't require any implementation as it's just used for showing the screen of changing the controller orientation if the user wishes to do so. Ever since #1634 this has not been needed as users can specify the controller orientation from the config and swap at any time. We store a private member just in case this gets used for anything extra in the future
In some cases, our callbacks were using s64 as a parameter, and in other
cases, they were using an int, which is inconsistent.
To make all callbacks consistent, we can just use an s64 as the type for
late cycles, given it gets rid of the need to cast internally.
While we're at it, also resolve some signed/unsigned conversions that
were occurring related to the callback registration.
Gets rid of the largest set of mutable global state within the core.
This also paves a way for eliminating usages of GetInstance() on the
System class as a follow-up.
Note that no behavioral changes have been made, and this simply extracts
the functionality into a class. This also has the benefit of making
dependencies on the core timing functionality explicit within the
relevant interfaces.
Places all of the timing-related functionality under the existing Core
namespace to keep things consistent, rather than having the timing
utilities sitting in its own completely separate namespace.
HandheldVariant is for specific games which expect handheld controllers to be at position 8(kirby), however this doesn't fix all games as some games require handhelds to be at position 0(snipperclips)
