ISOProperties loads codes using ActionReplay::LoadCodes which actually applies
the codes to the global state. If a game is running then that games receives
all the codes (and ACTIVE status) from the second game being shown in
ISOProperties which is not desirable.
Donkey Kong Country Returns is writing new data to some files in /tmp
when loading each level. But the savestate code was opening the files
a second time and reading some old and stale data out.
As of #3798, dolphin now correctly restores that stale data to /tmp,
which broke DKCR (and probally countless other games).
This PR closes all file handles before saving and loading savestates,
which flushes the data out and pervents this issue. (old savestates
are corrupted and will still cause crashes if loaded)
On master, when polling the 1st in-game controller, Dolphin would poll all the 1st local controllers. With the 1st commit, each client waits its turn, which would dramatically increase the lag.
Now with this commit, it even polls all local controllers at once, so it should have even less latency than master in a few setups. Like one player with 3 controllers and the 2nd one with just one controller.
This fixes issues with setups like:
Player 1 uses port 1 and player 2 uses port 3, or
player 1 uses port 2 and player 2 uses port 3, so nobody uses port 1
So they share the same emitter, and so they are in the same 128MB range.
This allows us to use B() to jump to the dispatcher.
However, so we have to regenerate them on every cache clear.
EndPlayInput runs on the CPU thread so it can't directly call
UpdateWantDeterminism. PlayController also tries to ChangeDisc
from the CPU Thread which is also invalid. It now just pauses
execution and posts a request to the Host to fix it instead.
The Core itself also did dodgy things like PauseAndLock-ing
from the CPU Thread and SetState from EmuThread which have been
removed.
Fix Frame Advance and FifoPlayer pause/unpause/stop.
CPU::EnableStepping is not atomic but is called from multiple threads
which races and leaves the system in a random state; also instruction
stepping was unstable, m_StepEvent had an almost random value because
of the dual purpose it served which could cause races where CPU::Run
would SingleStep when it was supposed to be sleeping.
FifoPlayer never FinishStateMove()d which was causing it to deadlock.
Rather than partially reimplementing CPU::Run, just use CPUCoreBase
and then call CPU::Run(). More DRY and less likely to have weird bugs
specific to the player (i.e the previous freezing on pause/stop).
Refactor PowerPC::state into CPU since it manages the state of the
CPU Thread which is controlled by CPU, not PowerPC. This simplifies
the architecture somewhat and eliminates races that can be caused by
calling PowerPC state functions directly instead of using CPU's
(because they bypassed the EnableStepping lock).
NeoGamma is explicitly sending a nonsense command to the Bluetooth module;
make sure to respond with something sane.
Fixes issue 9470, a regression from PR #1856.
Scheduling an event for zero cycles in the future actually means zero
cycles with new timing changes, but the code for IPC ACKs was depending on
it meaning "soon".
Fixes#9511.
I'm not at all confident this is actually right... but it seems to work.
Call the appropriate rumble function for each SI Device, Should fix#9331.
Ideally we wouldn’t have to do this, but since the way things are wired,
fixing the root cause it out of the picture for now.
They all handled it diffrently, so I've just moved it into Advance()
This fixes Pokemon Box booting in JIT/JITIL which shared a bug where
exceptions set in a scheduled event would be ignored untill the next
slice (upto 20,000 cycles).
