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
- 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
- Remove the required_xxx_pitch constraint as it makes no sense. The pitch controls what can be written per line.
- It is possible to have a huge surface width but only render to a small region at the beginning and have a smaller pitch than can fit the surface (NFS carbon)
- 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.
- Immediate mode is isolated from the rest of the vertex configuration
- TODO: Verify register behaviour when immediate mode is used
Check if per-primitive const register values are supported (likely are)
* Restore stack in fifo error handling
* Update get register after the cmd execution
* Fix put pause in the middle of command
* Add restore points when branching to self
* Precise nopcmd detection
* Test all invalid cmds for early treatment of queue corruption
- Do not assume flip marks end-of-frame if executed via syscall
- Also disables skip_frame for these applications as there is no frame boundary
- NOTE: QUEUE_HEAD cannot be relied on as it is seemingly possible to flip the same head and not need to queue it
- 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
- 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 :)
- Use proper time checking; depending on what is being done one 'tick' can
be almost a millisecond long or several nanoseconds
- Avoid spamming the system timer unless necessary
- A possible deadlock is still present if rsx is trying to get a super_ptr whilst the vm lock holder is in an access violation
This patch makes this scenario very unlikely since each block need only be touched once
- Implement forced reading when calling update method to sync partial lists
- Defer conditional render evaluation and use a read barrier to avoid extra work
- Fix HLE gcm library when binding tiles & zcull RAM
- Do not do a full sync on a texture read barrier
- Avoid calling zcull sync in FIFO spin wait
- Do not flush memory to cache from the renderer side; this method is now obsolete
- Defer compilation process to worker threads
- vulkan: Fixup for graphics_pipeline_state.
Never use struct assignment operator on vk** structs due to padding after sType member (4 bytes)
- Adds proper support for vertex textures, including dimensions other than 2D textures
- Minor analyser fixup, removes spurious 'analyser failed' errors
- Minor optimizations for program state tracking
- Adds dead code elimination
- Fix absolute branch target addresses to take base address into account
- Patch branch targets relative to base address to improve hash matching
- Bumps shader cache version
- Enables shader logging option to write out vertex program binary,
helpful when debugging problems.
- Avoid re-locking memory if there is no reason to do so (no draws issued)
- Actively bound regions should always get written to the backing cache
- Forcefully read memory during download if writes to the target have occured since last sync event
- The benefits of FIFO optimizations are huge in some cases.
The optimizations also do not break any tested applications so no need to disable with strict mode
- A debug option is provided to disable this behaviour for testing
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
- Introduces a gpu program analyser step to examine shader contents before attempting compilation or cache search
- Avoids detecting shader as being different because of unused textures having state changes
- Adds better program size detection for vertex programs
- Improved vertex program decompiler
- Properly support CAL type instructions
- Support jumping over instructions marked with a termination marker with BRA/CAL class opcodes
- Fix SRC checks and abort
- Fix CC register initialization
- NOTE: Even unused SRC registers have to be valid (usually referencing in.POS)
- gl/vk: Fix subresource copy/blit
- gl/vk: Fix default_component_map reading
- vk: Reimplement cell readback path and improve software channel decoder
- Properly name the subresource layout field - its in blocks not bytes!
- Implement d24s8 upload from memory correctly
- Do not ignore DEPTH_FLOAT textures - they are depth textures and abide by the depth compare rules
- NOTE: Redirection of 16-bit textures is not implemented yet
- Properly detect inline array registers vs constant value registers
- Silence needless spam, 306E is 2D surface engiine, the assumption that y is multiplied by 306E pitch is not crazy
