While both fastmem and the BLR optimization depend on fault handling,
the BLR optimization doesn't depend on fastmem, and there are cases
where you might want the BLR optimization but not fastmem. For me
personally, it's useful when I try to use a debugger on Android and have
to disable fastmem so I don't get SIGSEGVs all the time, but it would be
especially useful for iOS users.
In theory, our config system supports calling Set from any thread. But
because we have config callbacks that call RunAsCPUThread, it's a lot
more restricted in practice. Calling Set from any thread other than the
host thread or the CPU thread is formally thread unsafe, and calling Set
on the host thread while the CPU thread is showing a panic alert causes
a deadlock. This is especially a problem because 04072f0 made the
"Ignore for this session" button in panic alerts call Set.
Because so many of our config callbacks want their code to run on the
CPU thread, I thought it would make sense to have a centralized way to
move execution to the CPU thread for config callbacks. To solve the
deadlock problem, this new way is non-blocking. This means that threads
other than the CPU thread might continue executing before the CPU thread
is informed of the new config, but I don't think there's any problem
with that.
Intends to fix https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13108.
The ExpansionInterfaceManager::PauseAndLock function does nothing but
call other functions that have no effect.
ExpansionInterfaceManager::PauseAndLock calls CEXIChannel::PauseAndLock,
which in turn calls IEXIDevice::PauseAndLock. None of the classes
deriving from IEXIDevice override PauseAndLock, and the implementation
in IEXIDevice does nothing.
Fixing all the places it's used turned out to be a more complicated task than anticipated. So let's remove this for now so we don't confuse users with cryptic error messages...
Somewhere in the process of getting the memory peeking right for achievements, the AchievementManager call to DoFrame went missing. This restores it properly.
LoadGameByFilenameAsync sets up a volume reader and hashes the volume, then uses that hash to make the three consecutive API requests to resolve hash, start session and load game data.
CloseGame resets the m_is_game_loaded flag, wipes the queue, and destroys all the game data responses.
This is a small regression from KillRenderer, which caused duplicated
frames to be counted on the FPS counter when the "Skip Presenting
Duplicated Frames" option was disabled.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.
Turns out all OSD messages, every single one, are written to the titlebar. We've just never seen them because the FPS is in the title bar and it replaces it in a fraction of a second. This was only visible when saving savestates because it halts emulation for a moment while writing.
This is dumb, let's not do that anymore.
