Switch games are allowed to bind less data than what they use in a
vertex buffer, the expected behavior here is that these values are read
as zero. At the moment of writing this only D3D12, OpenGL and NVN through
NV_vertex_buffer_unified_memory support vertex buffer with a size limit.
In theory this could be emulated on Vulkan creating a new VkBuffer for
each (handle, offset, length) tuple and binding the expected data to it.
This is likely going to be slow and memory expensive when used on the
vertex buffer and we have to do it on all draws because we can't know
without analyzing indices when a game is going to read vertex data out
of bounds.
This is not a problem on OpenGL's BufferAddressRangeNV because it takes
a length parameter, unlike Vulkan's CmdBindVertexBuffers that only takes
buffers and offsets (the length is implicit in VkBuffer). It isn't a
problem on D3D12 either, because D3D12_VERTEX_BUFFER_VIEW on
IASetVertexBuffers takes SizeInBytes as a parameter (although I am not
familiar with robustness on D3D12).
Currently this only implements buffer ranges for vertex buffers,
although indices can also be affected. A KHR_robustness profile is not
created, but Nvidia's driver reads out of bound vertex data as zero
anyway, this might have to be changed in the future.

looking at the environment on certain maps.
Add code required to use OpenGL assembly programs based on
NV_gpu_program5. Decompilation for ARB programs is intended to be added
in a follow up commit. This does **not** include ARB decompilation and
it's not in an usable state.
The intention behind assembly programs is to reduce shader stutter
significantly on drivers supporting NV_gpu_program5 (and other required
extensions). Currently only Nvidia's proprietary driver supports these
extensions.
Add a UI option hidden for now to avoid people enabling this option
accidentally.
This code path has some limitations that OpenGL compatibility doesn't
have:
- NV_shader_storage_buffer_object is limited to 16 entries for a single
OpenGL context state (I don't know if this is an intended limitation, an
specification issue or I am missing something). Currently causes issues
on The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
- NV_parameter_buffer_object can't bind buffers using an offset
different to zero. The used workaround is to copy to a temporary buffer
(this doesn't happen often so it's not an issue).
On the other hand, it has the following advantages:
- Shaders build a lot faster.
- We have control over how floating point rounding is done over
individual instructions (SPIR-V on Vulkan can't do this).
- Operations on shared memory can be unsigned and signed.
- Transform feedbacks are dynamic state (not yet implemented).
- Parameter buffers (uniform buffers) are per stage, matching NVN and
hardware's behavior.
- The API to bind and create assembly programs makes sense, unlike
ARB_separate_shader_objects.
Changes the GraphicsContext to be managed by the GPU core. This
eliminates the need for the frontends to fool around with tricky
MakeCurrent/DoneCurrent calls that are dependent on the settings (such
as async gpu option).
This also refactors out the need to use QWidget::fromWindowContainer as
that caused issues with focus and input handling. Now we use a regular
QWidget and just access the native windowHandle() directly.
Another change is removing the debug tool setting in FrameMailbox.
Instead of trying to block the frontend until a new frame is ready, the
core will now take over presentation and draw directly to the window if
the renderer detects that its hooked by NSight or RenderDoc
Lastly, since it was in the way, I removed ScopeAcquireWindowContext and
replaced it with a simple subclass in GraphicsContext that achieves the
same result
Removes the sRGB hack of tracking if a frame used an sRGB rendertarget
to apply at least once to blit the final texture as sRGB. Instead of
doing this apply sRGB if the presented image has sRGB.
Also enable sRGB by default on Maxwell3D registers as some games seem to
assume this.
We already pass a reference to the system object to the constructor of the renderer,
so we can just use that instead of using the global accessor functions.
Allows capturing screenshot at the current internal resolution (native for software renderer), but a setting is available to capture it in other resolutions. The screenshot is saved to a single PNG in the current layout.

Namespaces all OpenGL code under the OpenGL namespace.
Prevents polluting the global namespace and allows clear distinction
between other renderers' code in the future.
This is an OpenGL renderer-specific data type. Given that, this type
shouldn't be used within the base interface for the rasterizer. Instead,
we can pass this information to the rasterizer via reference.
Given we use a base-class type within the renderer for the rasterizer
(RasterizerInterface), we want to allow renderers to perform more
complex initialization if they need to do such a thing. This makes it
important to reserve type information.
Given the OpenGL renderer is quite simple settings-wise, this is just a
simple shuffling of the initialization code. For something like Vulkan
however this might involve doing something like:
// Initialize and call rasterizer-specific function that requires
// the full type of the instance created.
auto raster = std::make_unique<VulkanRasterizer>(some, params);
raster->CallSomeVulkanRasterizerSpecificFunction();
// Assign to base class variable
rasterizer = std::move(raster)
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.
