- The hw generates inaccurate values when doing perspective-correct
interpolation of vertex output attributes and makes the comparison (a ==
b) fail even when they are a fixed constant value.
- Increase equality tolerance when doing comparisons in fragment
shaders for NV cards only to work around this issue.
- Teepo fix
- The fixed-point D24S8 format does special Z clamping during compare which matches PS3 behaviour
- D32S8 is a floating point format and comparison with Dref > 1 always fails causing black edges/borders
- Improve support for float16_t by minimizing mixed inputs to functions
(ambiguous overloads)
- Minimize amount of downcasts in code by using opcode flags
- Re-enable float16_t support for vulkan
- Emulating f16 with f32 is not ideal and requires a lot of value clamping
- Using native data type can significantly improve performance and accuracy
- With openGL, check for the compatible extensions NV_gpu_shader5 and
AMD_gpu_shader_half_float
- With Vulkan, enable this functionality in the deviceFeatures if
applicable. (VK_KHR_shader_float16_int8 extension)
- Temporarily disable hw fp16 for vulkan
- Removes CPU-only transforms that broke GPU-side code.
-- Channels in GPU compute are laid out in cell-order, but CPU was uploading in favorable order and compensating with swizzles.
-- This leads to 2 different layouts depending on the location of the data (CPU vs GPU)
- Implement R8G8_R8B8 interleaved format decode
- General improvements
formats
- Allows D24S8 and D32S8 transport via typeless channels
- Allows uploading and downloading D24S8 data easily
- TODO: Implement optional byteswapping to fix flushed readbacks with
the same method
- Also refactors some bpp handling code
- Simplify texture intersection test to use a normalized/uniform coordinate space
- Fix broken bounds checking as well
- Batch dma transfers whenever possible and do them in one go
- vk: Always ensure that queued dma transfers are visible to the GPU before they are needed by the host
Requires a little refactoring to allow proper communication of the commandbuffer state
- vk: Code cleanup, the simplified mechanism makes it so that its not necessary to pass tons of args to methods
- vk: Fixup - do not forcefully do dma transfers on sections in an invalidation zone! They may have been speculated correctly already
- Properly wait for the buffer transfer operation to finish before map/readback!
- Change vkFence to vkEvent which works more like a GL fence which is what is needed.
- Implement supporting methods and functions
- Do not destroy fence by immediately waiting after copying to dma buffer
- Blit operations do format conversion automatically which is NOT what we want!
- Scale onto temp buffer with similar format before performing data cast.
- Properly synchronize when transitioning to/from GENERAL layout.
- General layout requires full pipeline dependency since its used in a 'general' sense. As such, its use is to be largely avoided.
- gl: Properly initialize and manage sampler states
- gl/vk: Snap overlay elements to pixel grid by aligning to pixel centers
- overlays: Disable grid snapping in stb since its now handled in the backend
- NVIDIA drivers hook into the msq before our nativeEvent handler. This means NV is aware of events before rpcs3 is aware of them and sometimes stops until a new event is triggered.
If rpcs3 is inside a driver call at this time, the system will deadlock since the driver waits for msq which waits for the renderer which waits for the driver.
- Use explicit hook management to control window events
- Add fence timeout to attempt detection of surface loss events
- Disable DEPTH<->RGBA typeless transfers for now as they require a lot more work to work for all vendors
- Do not allow switching layouts to UNDEFINED/PREINITIALIZED formats
- Apply dither to edges that almost fail the straight-up alpha test
- Significantly improves alpha tested geometry far from the camera
- Also removes blend factor overrides/hacks as they give incorrect results due to background bleeding
- Index offset is ignored anyway and only used to calculate vertex attribute divisor index
- Specialized optimization for untouched xfer without primitive restart
- Avoid tagging and rely on read/write barriers and the dirty flag mechanism. Testing is done with a weak 8-byte memory test
- Introducing new data when tagging breaks applications with race conditions where tags can overwrite flushed data
- D24S8 targets have 2 aspects that are dealt with separately; Forcefully initialize the remaining data if a partial init is done. Its 'free' anyway
- It seems that the stencil mask matters when clearing unlike the depth mask and color mask
- gl: Include an execution state wrapper to ensure state changes are consistent. Also removes a lot of required 'cleanup' for helper methods
- texture_cache: Make execition context a mandatory field as it is required for all operations. Also removes a lot of situations where duplicate argument is added in for both fixed and vararg fields
- Explicit read/write barrier for framebuffer resources depending on
usage. Allows for operations like optional memory initialization before
reading
