- 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
- 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
- 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.
- 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
- 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
- Implicitly invoke a memory barrier if actively reading from an unsynchronized texture
- Simplify memory transfer operations
- Should allow more games to work without strict mode
- Do not bind companion framebuffer when clearing single aspect; let the
contest mechanism sort it out instead
- Do not prematurely tag framebuffers, instead only do so at
write-confirmation time. Should avoid false tagging if setup does not
allow a render to occur.
- Implements a mirror view of D24S8 data that accesses the stencil components.
Finishes the implementation of TEX2D_DEPTH_RGBA as the stencil component was previously missing from the reconstructed data
- Add a few missing destructors
Image classes are inherited a lot and I forgot to make the dtors virtual
Fixes VRAM leaks and incorrect destruction of resources, which could
lead to drivers crashes.
Additionally, lock_memory_region is now able to flush superseded
sections. However, due to the potential performance impact of this
for little gain, a new debug setting ("Strict Flushing") has been
added to config.yaml
- Ignore barriers inserted after BEGIN but before any draw commands are emitted
- Properly process tail barriers inserted before END but after draw commands are submitted
- Ignore execution barriers with no effect (same register value written)
- Tries to detect when FIFO preprocessing is beneficial and only enables optimizations if the benefit outweighs the cost
- Current threshold is at least 500 draw calls saved at over 2000 draw calls to justify the overhead
- TODO: More tuning for other CPUs
- Improve vertex attribute layout format. Allows for full 16-bit attribute divisor
- Use actual pitch when declaring framebuffer rsx pitch instead of register value in case of swizzle? rendering
- Replace a few more vectors with simple_array<T>
- Avoid unnecessary string comparisons in backends. We already know referenced textures from the program analysers!
- Also fix visual corruption when using disjoint indexed draws
- Refactor draw call emit again (vk)
- Improve execution barrier resolve
- Allow vertex/index rebase inside begin/end pair
- Add ALPHA_TEST to list of excluded methods [TODO: defer raster state]
- gl bringup
- Simplify
- using the simple_array gets back a few more fps :)
