properly byteswap r13 for spinlock
Add PPCOpcodeBits
stub out broken fpscr updating in ppc_hir_builder. it's just code that repeatedly does nothing right now.
add note about 0 opcode bytes being executed to ppc_frontend
Add assert to check that function end is greater than function start, can happen with malformed functions
Disable prefetch and cachecontrol by default, automatic hardware prefetchers already do the job for the most part
minor cleanup in simplification_pass, dont loop optimizations, let the pass manager do it for us
Add experimental "delay_via_maybeyield" cvar, which uses MaybeYield to "emulate" the db16cyc instruction
Add much faster/simpler way of directly calling guest functions, no longer have to do a byte by byte search through the generated code
Generate label string ids on the fly
Fix unused function warnings for prefetch on clang, fix many other clang warnings
Eliminated majority of CallNativeSafes by replacing them with naive generic code paths.
^ Vector rotate left, vector shift left, vector shift right, vector shift arithmetic right, and vector average are included
These naive paths are implemented small loops that stash the two inputs to the stack and load them in gprs from there, they are not particularly fast but should be an order of magnitude faster than callnativesafe
to a host function, which would involve a call, stashing all volatile registers, an indirect call, potentially setting up a stack frame for the arrays that the inputs get stashed to, the actual operations, a return, loading all volatile registers, a return, etc
Added the fast SHR_V128 path back in
Implement signed vector average byte, signed vector average word. previously we were emitting no code for them. signed vector average byte appears in many games
Fix bug with signed vector average 32, we were doing unsigned shift, turning negative values into big positive ones potentially
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
"turns out theres a lot of quirks with the div instructions we havent been covering
if the denom is 0, we jump to the end and mov eax/rax to dst, which is correct because ppc raises no exceptions for divide by 0 unlike x86
except we don't initialize eax before that jump, so whatever garbage from the previous sequence that has been left in eax/rax is what the result of the instruction will be
and then in our constant folding, we don't do the same zero check in Value::Div, so if we constant folded the denom to 0 we will host crash
the ppc manual says the result for a division by 0 is undefined, but in reality it seems it is always 0
there are a few posts i saw from googling about it, and tests on my rgh gave me 0, but then another issue came up
and that is that we dont check for signed overflow in our division, so we raise an exception if guest code ever does (1<<signbit_pos) / -1
signed overflow in division also produces 0 on ppc
the last thing is that if src2 is constant we skip the 0 check for division
without checking if its nonzero
all weird, likely very rare edge cases, except for maybe the signed overflow division

oh yeah, and because the int members of constantvalue are all signed ints, we were actually doing signed division always with constant folding"
fixed an earlier mistake by me with the precision of fresx
made some optimization disableable
implemented vkpkx
fixed possible bugs with vsr/vsl constant folding
disabled the nice imul code for now, there was a bug with int64 version and i dont have time to check
started on multiplication/addition/subtraction/division identities
Removed optimized VSL implementation, it's going to have to be rewritten anyway
Added ppc_ctx_t to xboxkrnl shim for direct context access
started working on KeSaveFloatingPointState, re'ed most of it
Exposed some more state/functionality to the kernel for implementing lower level routines like the save/restore ones
Add cvar to re-enable incorrect mxcsr behavior if a user doesnt care and wants better cpu performance
Stubbed out more impossible sequences, replace mul_hi_i32 with a 64 bit multiply
