The implementation is based on reverse engineering of the 3DS's kernel.
A mutex holder's priority will be temporarily boosted to the best priority among any threads that want to acquire any of its held mutexes.
When the holder releases the mutex, it's priority will be boosted to the best priority among the threads that want to acquire any of its remaining held mutexes.
Define a variable with the value of the sync timeout error code.
Use a boost::flat_map instead of an unordered_map to hold the equivalence of objects and wait indices in a WaitSynchN call.
Threads will now be awakened when the objects they're waiting on are signaled, instead of repeating the WaitSynchronization call every now and then.
The scheduler is now called once after every SVC call, and once after a thread is awakened from sleep by its timeout callback.
This new implementation is based off reverse-engineering of the real kernel.
See https://gist.github.com/Subv/02f29bd9f1e5deb7aceea1e8f019c8f4 for a more detailed description of how the real kernel handles rescheduling.
All handles obtained via srv::GetServiceHandle or svcConnectToPort are references to ClientSessions.
Service modules will wait on the counterpart of those ClientSessions (Called ServerSessions) using svcReplyAndReceive or svcWaitSynchronization[1|N], and will be awoken when a SyncRequest is performed.
HLE Interfaces are now ClientPorts which override the HandleSyncRequest virtual member function to perform command handling immediately.
The code now properly configures the process image to match the loaded
binary segments (code, rodata, data) instead of just blindly allocating
a large chunk of dummy memory.
Implemented svcs GetResourceLimit, GetResourceLimitCurrentValues and GetResourceLimitLimitValues.
Note that the resource limits do not currently keep track of used objects, since we have no way to distinguish between an object created by the application, and an object created by some HLE module once we're inside Kernel::T::Create.
During normal operation, a thread waiting on an WaitObject and the
object hold mutual references to each other for the duration of the
wait.
If a process is forcefully terminated (The CTR kernel has a SVC to do
this, TerminateProcess, though no equivalent exists for threads.) its
threads would also be stopped and destroyed, leaving dangling pointers
in the WaitObjects.
The solution is to simply have the Thread remove itself from WaitObjects
when it is stopped. The vector of Threads in WaitObject has also been
changed to hold SharedPtrs, just in case. (Better to have a reference
cycle than a crash.)
- Separate wait checking from waiting the current thread
- Resume thread when wait_all=true only if all objects are available at once
- Set output to correct wait object index when there are duplicate handles
This handle manager more closely mirrors the behaviour of the CTR-OS
one. In addition object ref-counts and support for DuplicateHandle have
been added.
Note that support for DuplicateHandle is still experimental, since parts
of the kernel still use Handles internally, which will likely cause
troubles if two different handles to the same object are used to e.g.
wait on a synchronization primitive.
The savedata for each game is stored in /savedata/<ProgramID> for NCCH files. ELF files and 3DSX files use the folder 0 because they have no ID information
Got rid of the code duplication in File and Directory
Files that deal with the host machine's file system now live in DiskFile, similarly for directories and DiskDirectory and archives with DiskArchive.
FS_U: Use the correct error code when a file wasn't found
This is a first step at fixing the conceptual insanity that is our
handling of service and IPC calls. For now, interfaces still directly
derived from Session because we don't have the infrastructure to do it
properly. (That is, Processes and scheduling them.)
All service calls in the CTR OS return result codes indicating the
success or failure of the call. Previous to this commit, Citra's HLE
emulation of services and the kernel universally either ignored errors
or returned dummy -1 error codes.
This commit makes an initial effort to provide an infrastructure for
error reporting and propagation which can be use going forward to make
HLE calls accurately return errors as the original system. A few parts
of the code have been updated to use the new system where applicable.
One part of this effort is the definition of the `ResultCode` type,
which provides facilities for constructing and parsing error codes in
the structured format used by the CTR.
The `ResultVal` type builds on `ResultCode` by providing a container for
values returned by function that can report errors. It enforces that
correct error checking will be done on function returns by preventing
the use of the return value if the function returned an error code.
Currently this change is mostly internal since errors are still
suppressed on the ARM<->HLE border, as a temporary compatibility hack.
As functionality is implemented and tested this hack can be eventually
removed.
