1. rsx: Rework section synchronization using the new memory mirrors
2. rsx: Tweaks
- Simplify peeking into the current rsx::thread instance.
Use a simple rsx::get_current_renderer instead of asking fxm for the same
- Fix global rsx super memory shm block management
3. rsx: Improve memory validation. test_framebuffer() and
tag_framebuffer() are simplified due to mirror support
4. rsx: Only write back confirmed memory range to avoid overapproximation errors in blit engine
5. rsx: Explicitly mark clobbered flushable sections as dirty to have them
removed
6. rsx: Cumulative fixes
- Reimplement rsx::buffered_section management routines
- blit engine subsections are not hit-tested against confirmed/committed memory range
Not all applications are 'honest' about region bounds, making the real cpu range useless for blit ops
- Properly identify puller spin primitives
- Add a small wake delay after exiting a spin delay. Fixes desynchronization
It seems real hw has a small delay between cell edits to commandbuffer memory at the GET address and the changes becoming visible to the DMA puller
Simulated with a short busy_wait, large values will improve sync but degrade performance
- Improve dirty state tracking affecting program state
- vk: Refactor out transform constants upload into a separate channel to avoid if possible
transform data uploads are quite expensive
- Track asynchronous operations in RSX core
- Add read barriers to force pending writes to finish.
Fixes zcull delay flicker in all UE3 titles without forcing hard stall
- Increase zcull latency as all writes should be synchronized now
- ZCULL unit emulation rewritten
- ZCULL reports are now deferred avoiding pipeline stalls
- Minor optimizations; replaced std::mutex with shared_mutex where contention is rare
- Silence unnecessary error message
- Small improvement to out of memory handling for vulkan and slightly bump vertex buffer heap
- Removes the duplicate local_transform_constants
- Resets the transform constants on every context reset
- Simplifies the code abit which should make it faster
- NOTE: Transform constants are persistent across context re-init events (VF5)
- opengl driver optimization for nvidia. On nvidia glTextureBufferRange performance is horrendous
-- Initialize texture buffer to whole buffer at startup and use absolute offsets to read data instead
-- Over 2x performance in some cases (Resogun, TNT racers)
- gl/vk: Do not flip non-existent display buffers. Fixes spec violation at boot in TNT racers demo
- whitespace fixes for sys_rsx
- Track last working state and reset to it if RSX starts to desync
-- This is especially useful when running vulkan since the renderer will easily outpace the rest of the system when merely recording draw commands
- Ignore empty sets
-- Mark empty/invalid IB sets as having 0 element counts.
- Reimplement fragment program fetch and rewrite texture upload mechanism
-- All of these steps should only be done at most once per draw call
-- Eliminates continously checking the surface store for overlapping addresses as well
addenda - critical fixes
- gl: Bind TIU before starting texture operations as they will affect the currently bound texture
- vk: Reuse sampler objects if possible
- rsx: Support for depth resampling for depth textures obtained via blit engine
vk/rsx: Minor fixes
- Fix accidental imageview dereference when using WCB if texture memory occupies FB memory
- Invalidate dirty framebuffers (strict mode only)
- Normalize line endings because VS is dumb
gl: Fix multidraw [WIP]
rsx: Ignore vertex base when data source is generated using arithmetic
vk: Check pending flag before doing fence poke
vk/gl: Fix for inlined array and immediate draws
rsx: Collapse joined draws when batching
- Significant gains from greatly reduced CPU work
- Also reorders command submission in end() to improve throughput
- Refactors most of the vertex buffer handling
- All vertex processing is moved GPU side
* Rework vertex attribute binding for vulkan. Allows always providing a buffer view to the pipeline even if the game has the attribute disabled as long as it is consumed by the vertex shader.
