Proper handling of nans for VMX max/min on x64 (minps/maxps has special behavior depending on the operand order that vmx does not have for vminfp/vmaxfp)
Add extremely unintrusive guest code profiler utilizing KUSER_SHARED systemtime. This profiler is disabled on platforms other than windows, and on windows is disabled by default by a cvar
Repurpose GUEST_SCRATCH64 stack offset to instead be for storing guest function profile times, define GUEST_SCRATCH as 0 instead, since thats already meant to be a scratch area
Fix xenia silently closing on config errors/other fatal errors by setting has_console_attached_'s default to false
Add alternative code path for guest clock that uses kusershared systemtime instead of QueryPerformanceCounter. This is way faster and I have tested it and found it to be working, but i have disabled it because i do not know how well it works on wine or on processors other than mine
Significantly reduce log spam by setting XELOGAPU and XELOGGPU to be LogLevel::Debug
Changed some LOGI to LOGD in places to reduce log spam
Mark VdSwap as kHighFrequency, it was spamming up logs
Make logging calls less intrusive for the caller by forcing the test of log level inline and moving the format/AppendLogLine stuff to an outlined cold function
Add swcache namespace for software cache operations like prefetches, streaming stores and streaming loads.
Add XE_MSVC_REORDER_BARRIER for preventing msvc from propagating a value too close to its store or from its load
Add xe_unlikely_mutex for locks we know have very little contention
add XE_HOST_CACHE_LINE_SIZE and XE_RESTRICT to platform.h
Microoptimization: Changed most uses of size_t to ring_size_t in RingBuffer, this reduces the size of the inlined ringbuffer operations slightly by eliminating rex prefixes, depending on register allocation
Add BeginPrefetchedRead to ringbuffer, which prefetches the second range if there is one according to the provided PrefetchTag
added inline_loadclock cvar, which will directly use the value of the guest clock from clock.cc in jitted guest code. off by default
change uses of GUEST_SCRATCH64 to GUEST_SCRATCH
Add fast vectorized xenos_half_to_float/xenos_float_to_half (currently resides in x64_seq_vector, move to gpu code maybe at some point)
Add fast x64 codegen for PackFloat16_4/UnpackFloat16_4. Same code can be used for Float16_2 in future commit. This should speed up some games that use these functions heavily
Remove cvar for toggling old float16 behavior
Add VRSAVE register, support mfspr/mtspr vrsave
Add cvar for toggling off codegen for trap instructions and set it to true by default.
Add specialized methods to CommandProcessor: WriteRegistersFromMem, WriteRegisterRangeFromRing, and WriteOneRegisterFromRing. These reduce the overall cost of WriteRegister
Use a fixed size vmem vector for upload ranges, realloc/memsetting on resize in the inner loop of requestranges was showing up on the profiler (the search in requestranges itself needs work)
Rename fixed_vmem_vector to better fit xenia's naming convention
Only log unknown register writes in WriteRegister if DEBUG :/. We're stuck on MSVC with c++17 so we have no way of influencing the branch ordering for that function without profile guided optimization
Remove binding stride assert in shader_translator.cc, triangle told me its leftover ogl stuff
Mark xe::FatalError as noreturn
If a controller is not connected, delay by 1.1 seconds before checking if it has been reconnected. Asking Xinput about a controller slot that is unused is extremely slow, and XinputGetState/SetState were taking up
an enormous amount of time in profiles. this may have caused a bit of input lag
Protect accesses to input_system with a lock
Add proper handling for user_index>= 4 in XamInputGetState/SetState, properly return zeroed state in GetState
Add missing argument to NtQueryVirtualMemory_entry
Fixed RtlCompareMemoryUlong_entry, it actually does not care if the source is misaligned, and for length it aligns down
Fixed RtlUpperChar and RtlLowerChar, added a table that has their correct return values precomputed
Add alternate path to DOT_PRODUCT_3/4 for use_fast_dot_product that skips all the status register stuff and just remaps inf to qnan
Add OPCODE_TO_SINGLE to replace the CONVERT_F32_F64 - CONVERT_F64_F32 sequence we used to emit with the idea that a backend could implement a more correct rounding behavior if possible on its arch
Remove some impossible sequences like MUL_HI_I8/I16, MUL_ADD_F32, DIV_V128. These instructions have no equivalent in PPC. Many other instructions are unused/dead code and should be removed to make the x64 backend a better reference for future ones
Add backend_flags to Instr. Basically, flags field that a backend can use for whatever it wants when generating code.
Add backend instr flag to x64 that tells it to not generate code for an instruction. this allows sequences to consume subsequent instructions
Generate actual x64 code for VSL instruction instead of using callnativesafe
Detect repeated COMPARE instructions w/ identical operands and reuse the results in FLAGS if so. this eliminates a ton of garbage compare/set instructions.
If a COMPARE instructions destination is stored to context with no intervening instruction and no additional uses besides the store, do setx [ctx address]
Detect prefetchw and use it in CACHE_CONTROL if prefetch for write is requested instead of doing prefetch to all cache levels
Fixed an accident in an earlier commit by me, VECTOR_DENORMFLUSH was not being emitted at all, so denormal inputs to MUL_ADD_V128 were not becoming zero and outputs from DOT_PRODUCT_X were not either. I believe this introduced a bug into RDR where a wagon wouldnt spawn? (https://discord.com/channels/308194948048486401/308207592482668545/1000443975817252874)
Compute fresx in double precision using RECIP_F64 and then round to single instead of doing (double)(1.0f / (float)value), matching original behavior better
Refactor some of ppc_emit_fpu, much of the InstrEmit function are identical except for whether they round to single or not
Added "tail emitters" to X64Emitter. These are callbacks that get invoked with their label and the X64Emitter after the epilog code. This allows us to move cold code out of the critical path and in the future place constant pools near functions
guest_to_host_thunk/host_to_guest_thunk now gets directly rel32 called, instead of doing a mov
Add X64BackendContext structure, represents data before the start of the PPCContext
Instead of doing branchless sequence, do a compare and jump to tail emitted code for address translation. This makes converting addresses a 3 uop affair in most cases.
Do qnan move for dot product in a tail emitter
Detect whether EFLAGS bits are independent variables for the current cpu (not really detecting it ehe, just checking if zen) and if so generate inc/dec for add/sub 1
Detect whether low 32 bits of membase are 0. If they are then we can use membasereg.cvt32() in place of immediate 0 in many places, particularly in stores
Detect LOAD MODIFY STORE pattern for context variables (currently only done for 64 bit ones) and turn them into modify [context ptr]. This is done for add, sub, and, or, xor, not, neg
Tail emit error handling for TRAP opcodes
Stub out unused trap opcodes like TRAP_TRUE_I32, TRAP_TRUE_I64, TRAP_TRUE_I16 (the call_true/return_true opcodes for these types are also probably unused)
Remove BackpropTruncations. It was poorly written and causes crashes on the game Viva pinata (https://discord.com/channels/308194948048486401/701111856600711208/1000249460451983420)
Use shuffle_ps instead of broadcastss, broadcastss is slower on many intel and amd processors and encodes to the same number of bytes as shuffle_ps
Detect and optimize away PERMUTE with a zero src2 and src3 in constant_propagation_pass instead of in the x64 sequence
For constant PERMUTE, do the Xor/And prior to LoadConstantXmm instead of in the generated code
Simplified code for PERMUTE
Added simplification rule that detects (lzcnt(x) >> log2(bitsizeof_x)) == ( x == 0)
Added set_srcN(value, idx) which can be used to set the nth source of an instruction, which makes more sense than having three different functions that only differ by the field they touch
Added Value::VisitValueOperands for iterating all Value operands an instruction has.
Add BackpropTruncations code to simplification_pass
Changed the (void**) dereferences of raw_context that are done to grab thread_state to instead reference PPCContext and the thread_state field. Moved the thread_state field to the tail of PPCContext.
Moved membase to the tail of PPCContext, since now it is reloaded very infrequently.
Rearranged PPCContext so that the condition registers come first (most accesses to them cant get SSA'd), moved lr and ctr to after gp regs since they are not accessed as much as the main gpregs. This way the most frequently
accessed registers will be accessible via a rel8 displacement instead of rel32 (ideally, we would have only certain CRs at the start, but xenia does pointer arithmetic on CR0's offset to get CRn)
Use alignas(64) to ensure PPCContext's padding
Map PPCContext specially so that the low 32 bits of the context register is 0xE0000000, for the 4k page offset check. Also allocate the page before, so that backends can store their own information that is not relevant to the PPCContext on that page and
reference that data in the generated asm via 8-bit signed displ or 32-bit signed displ. Currently this page is not being utilized, but I plan on stashing some data critical to the x86 backend there
Changed many wrong avx instructions, they worked but they were not intended for the data they operated on, meaning they transferred domains and caused 1-2 cycle stall each time
Added SimdDomain checking/deduction to X64Emitter.
Used SimdDomain code to fix a lot of float/int domain stalls
Use the low 32 bits of the context register instead of constant 0xE0000000 in ComputeAddress
Special path for SELECT_V128 with result of comparison that will use a blend instruction instead of and/or
Many HIR optimizations added in simp pass
A bunch of other stuff running out of time to write this msg
C++17ification!
- Filesystem interaction now uses std::filesystem::path.
- Usage of const char*, std::string have been changed to
std::string_view where appropriate.
- Usage of printf-style functions changed to use fmt.
