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
Currently, the main memory management code is one of the remaining
places where we have global state. The next series of changes will aim
to rectify this.
This change simply introduces the main skeleton of the class that will
contain all the necessary state.
Migrates the HLE service code off the use of directly accessing the
global system instance where trivially able to do so.
This removes all usages of Core::CurrentProcess from the service code,
only 8 occurrences of this function exist elsewhere. There's still quite
a bit of "System::GetInstance()" being used, however this was able to
replace a few instances.
This used to occur due to the VMManager being nullptr at the time cheats were registered (during load, but before it was done). This is bypassed by not accessing the VMManager for offset data until load is complete,
Avoids the use of global accessors, removing the reliance on global
state. This also makes dependencies explicit in the interface, as
opposed to being hidden
Makes the dependency explicit in the TelemetrySession's interface
instead of making it a hidden dependency.
This also revealed a hidden issue with the way the telemetry session was
being initialized. It was attempting to retrieve the app loader and log
out title-specific information. However, this isn't always guaranteed to
be possible.
During the initialization phase, everything is being constructed. It
doesn't mean an actual title has been selected. This is what the Load()
function is for. This potentially results in dead code paths involving
the app loader. Instead, we explicitly add this information when we know
the app loader instance is available.
This gives us significantly more control over where in the
initialization process we start execution of the main process.
Previously we were running the main process before the CPU or GPU
threads were initialized (not good). This amends execution to start
after all of our threads are properly set up.
Now that we have dependencies on the initialization order, we can move
the creation of the main process to a more sensible area: where we
actually load in the executable data.
This allows localizing the creation and loading of the process in one
location, making the initialization of the process much nicer to trace.
Like with CPU emulation, we generally don't want to fire off the threads
immediately after the relevant classes are initialized, we want to do
this after all necessary data is done loading first.
This splits the thread creation into its own interface member function
to allow controlling when these threads in particular get created.
Our initialization process is a little wonky than one would expect when
it comes to code flow. We initialize the CPU last, as opposed to
hardware, where the CPU obviously needs to be first, otherwise nothing
else would work, and we have code that adds checks to get around this.
For example, in the page table setting code, we check to see if the
system is turned on before we even notify the CPU instances of a page
table switch. This results in dead code (at the moment), because the
only time a page table switch will occur is when the system is *not*
running, preventing the emulated CPU instances from being notified of a
page table switch in a convenient manner (technically the code path
could be taken, but we don't emulate the process creation svc handlers
yet).
This moves the threads creation into its own member function of the core
manager and restores a little order (and predictability) to our
initialization process.
Previously, in the multi-threaded cases, we'd kick off several threads
before even the main kernel process was created and ready to execute (gross!).
Now the initialization process is like so:
Initialization:
1. Timers
2. CPU
3. Kernel
4. Filesystem stuff (kind of gross, but can be amended trivially)
5. Applet stuff (ditto in terms of being kind of gross)
6. Main process (will be moved into the loading step in a following
change)
7. Telemetry (this should be initialized last in the future).
8. Services (4 and 5 should ideally be alongside this).
9. GDB (gross. Uses namespace scope state. Needs to be refactored into a
class or booted altogether).
10. Renderer
11. GPU (will also have its threads created in a separate step in a
following change).
Which... isn't *ideal* per-se, however getting rid of the wonky
intertwining of CPU state initialization out of this mix gets rid of
most of the footguns when it comes to our initialization process.
Now that we have the address arbiter extracted to its own class, we can
fix an innaccuracy with the kernel. Said inaccuracy being that there
isn't only one address arbiter. Each process instance contains its own
AddressArbiter instance in the actual kernel.
This fixes that and gets rid of another long-standing issue that could
arise when attempting to create more than one process.
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.
This is a function that definitely doesn't always have a non-modifying
behavior across all implementations, so this should be made non-const.
This gets rid of the need to mark data members as mutable to work around
the fact mutating data members needs to occur.
Keeps the CPU-specific behavior from being spread throughout the main
System class. This will also act as the home to contain member functions
that perform operations on all cores. The reason for this being that the
following pattern is sort of prevalent throughout sections of the
codebase:
If clearing the instruction cache for all 4 cores is necessary:
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(0).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(1).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(2).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(3).ClearInstructionCache();
This is kind of... well, silly to copy around whenever it's needed.
especially when it can be reduced down to a single line.
This change also puts the basics in place to begin "ungrafting" all of the
forwarding member functions from the System class that are used to
access CPU state or invoke CPU-specific behavior. As such, this change
itself makes no changes to the direct external interface of System. This
will be covered by another changeset.

Many of the Current<Thing> getters (as well as a few others) were
missing const qualified variants, which makes it a pain to retrieve
certain things from const qualified references to System.
There's no need for shared ownership here, as the only owning class
instance of those Cpu instances is the System class itself. We can also
make the thread_to_cpu map use regular pointers instead of shared_ptrs,
given that the Cpu instances will always outlive the cases where they're
used with that map.
Like the barrier, this is owned entirely by the System and will always
outlive the encompassing state, so shared ownership semantics aren't
necessary here.
This will always outlive the Cpu instances, since it's destroyed after
we destroy the Cpu instances on shutdown, so there's no need for shared
ownership semantics here.
Neither of these functions alter the ownership of the provided pointer,
so we can simply make the parameters a reference rather than a direct
shared pointer alias. This way we also disallow passing incorrect memory values like
nullptr.
There's no real need to use a shared pointer in these cases, and only
makes object management more fragile in terms of how easy it would be to
introduce cycles. Instead, just do the simple thing of using a regular
pointer. Much of this is just a hold-over from citra anyways.
It also doesn't make sense from a behavioral point of view for a
process' thread to prolong the lifetime of the process itself (the
process is supposed to own the thread, not the other way around).
A process should never require being reference counted in this
situation. If the handle to a process is freed before this function is
called, it's definitely a bug with our lifetime management, so we can
put the requirement in place for the API that the process must be a
valid instance.
Given these are only added to the class to allow those functions to
access the private constructor, it's a better approach to just make them
static functions in the interface, to make the dependency explicit.
Given we now have the kernel as a class, it doesn't make sense to keep
the current process pointer within the System class, as processes are
related to the kernel.
This also gets rid of a subtle case where memory wouldn't be freed on
core shutdown, as the current_process pointer would never be reset,
causing the pointed to contents to continue to live.
The only reason this include was necessary, was because the constructor
wasn't defaulted in the cpp file and the compiler would inline it
wherever it was used. However, given Controller is forward declared, all
those inlined constructors would see an incomplete type, causing a
compilation failure. So, we just place the constructor in the cpp file,
where it can see the complete type definition, allowing us to remove
this include.
Eliminates the need to rebuild some source files if the file_util header
ever changes. This also uncovered some indirect inclusions, which have
also been fixed.
The follow-up to e2457418da, which
replaces most of the includes in the core header with forward declarations.
This makes it so that if any of the headers the core header was
previously including change, then no one will need to rebuild the bulk
of the core, due to core.h being quite a prevalent inclusion.
This should make turnaround for changes much faster for developers.
core.h is kind of a massive header in terms what it includes within
itself. It includes VFS utilities, kernel headers, file_sys header,
ARM-related headers, etc. This means that changing anything in the
headers included by core.h essentially requires you to rebuild almost
all of core.
Instead, we can modify the System class to use the PImpl idiom, which
allows us to move all of those headers to the cpp file and forward
declare the bulk of the types that would otherwise be included, reducing
compile times. This change specifically only performs the PImpl portion.
As means to pave the way for getting rid of global state within core,
This eliminates kernel global state by removing all globals. Instead
this introduces a KernelCore class which acts as a kernel instance. This
instance lives in the System class, which keeps its lifetime contained
to the lifetime of the System class.
This also forces the kernel types to actually interact with the main
kernel instance itself instead of having transient kernel state placed
all over several translation units, keeping everything together. It also
has a nice consequence of making dependencies much more explicit.
This also makes our initialization a tad bit more correct. Previously we
were creating a kernel process before the actual kernel was initialized,
which doesn't really make much sense.
The KernelCore class itself follows the PImpl idiom, which allows
keeping all the implementation details sealed away from everything else,
which forces the use of the exposed API and allows us to avoid any
unnecessary inclusions within the main kernel header.
All calling code assumes that the rasterizer will be in a valid state,
which is a totally fine assumption. The only way the rasterizer wouldn't
be is if initialization is done incorrectly or fails, which is checked
against in System::Init().
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.
None of these files are used in any meaningful way. They're just
leftovers from citra. Also has the benefit of getting rid of an unused
global variable.
General moving to keep kernel object types separate from the direct
kernel code. Also essentially a preliminary cleanup before eliminating
global kernel state in the kernel code.
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.
This makes it a compilation error to construct additional instances of
the System class directly, preventing accidental wasteful constructions
over and over.
This would result in a lot of allocations and related object
construction, just to toss it all away immediately after the call.
These are definitely not intentional, and it was intended that all of
these should have been accessing the static function GetInstance()
through the name itself, not constructed instances.
