We move the initialization of the renderer to the core class, while
keeping the creation of it and any other specifics in video_core. This
way we can ensure that the renderer is initialized and doesn't give
unfettered access to the renderer. This also makes dependencies on types
more explicit.
For example, the GPU class doesn't need to depend on the
existence of a renderer, it only needs to care about whether or not it
has a rasterizer, but since it was accessing the global variable, it was
also making the renderer a part of its dependency chain. By adjusting
the interface, we can get rid of this dependency.
Makes the global a member of the RendererBase class. We also change this
to be a reference. Passing any form of null pointer to these functions
is incorrect entirely, especially given the code itself assumes that the
pointer would always be in a valid state.
This also makes it easier to follow the lifecycle of instances being
used, as we explicitly interact the renderer with the rasterizer, rather
than it just operating on a global pointer.
Now based on std::chrono, and also works in terms of emulated time
instead of frames, so we can in the future frame-limit even when the
display is disabled, etc.
The frame limiter can also be enabled along with v-sync now, which
should be useful for those with displays running at more than 60 Hz.
On SDL2 this allows it to use SDL_GL_GetProcAddress() instead of the
default function loader, and fixes a crash when using apitrace with an
EGL context.
On Qt we will need to migrate from QGLWidget to QOpenGLWidget and
QOpenGLContext before we can use gladLoadGLLoader() instead of
gladLoadGL(), since the former doesn’t expose a function loader.
The nVidia driver is *extremely* spammy on this category, sending a
message on every buffer or texture upload, slowing down the emulator and
making the log useless.
This removes explicit checks sprinkled all over the codebase to instead
just have the SW rasterizer expose an implementation with no-ops for
most operations.
The main advantage of switching to glad from glLoadGen is that, apart
from being actively maintained, it supports a customizable entrypoint
loader function, which makes it possible to also support OpenGL ES.
This is exposed in the GUI as a new "CiTrace Recording" widget.
Playback is implemented by a standalone 3DS homebrew application (which only runs reliably within Citra currently; on an actual 3DS it will often crash still).
memory.cpp/h contains definitions related to acessing memory and
configuring the address space
mem_map.cpp/h contains higher-level definitions related to configuring
the address space accoording to the kernel and allocating memory.
Involves making asserts use printf instead of the log functions (log functions are asynchronous and, as such, the log won't be printed in time)
As such, the log type argument was removed (printf obviously can't use it, and it's made obsolete by the file and line printing)
Also removed some GEKKO cruft.
Hardware testing determined that the GSP processes shared memory
framebuffer update info even when no memory transfer or filling GX
commands are used. They are now updated on every interrupt, which isn't
confirmed correct but matches hardware behaviour more closely.
This also reverts the hack introduced in #404. It made a few games
behave better, but I believe it's incorrect and also breaks other games.
The view is scaled to be as large as possible, without changing the aspect, within the bounds of the window.
On "retina" displays, or other displays where window units != pixels, the view should no longer draw incorrectly.
The OpenGL renderer has been revised, with the following changes:
- Initialization and rendering have been refactored to reduce the number of
redundant objects used.
- Framebuffer rotation is now done directly, using texture mapping.
- Vertex coordinates are now given in pixels, and the projection matrix
isn't hardcoded anymore.
