Previously we would only backpatch overflowed address calculations
if the overflow was 0x1000 or less. Now we can handle the full 2 GiB
of overflow in both directions.
I'm also making equivalent changes to JitArm64's code. This isn't because
it needs it – JitArm64 address calculations should never overflow – but
because I wanted to get rid of the 0x100001000 inherited from Jit64 that
makes even less sense for JitArm64 than for Jit64.
This avoids a pseudo infinite loop where CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack
would lock the CPU in order to read the call stack, causing the CPU to
call Host_UpdateDisasmDialog because it's transitioning from running to
pausing, causing Host::UpdateDisasmDialog to be emitted, causing
CodeWidget::Update to be called, once again causing
CodeWidget::UpdateCallstack to be called, repeating the cycle.
Dolphin didn't go completely unresponsive during this, because
Host_UpdateDisasmDialog schedules the emitting of Host::UpdateDisasmDialog
to happen on another thread without blocking, but it was stopping certain
operations like exiting emulation from working.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.
This code doesn't need to be portable (since the goal is to have a smaller offset for x64 codegen), so if it's not supported there are other problems. Similar code exists in e.g. DSP.cpp.
It was used for valid_bind_points, which was removed in 88bd10cd30d487cc3efba20875b32df7cdacb686 (and the declaration was more recently removed in 606c18210dd4f651655b2c84e9e332e6c6c6e21b).
While the NV extension is totally fine, the KHR extension should be able to support more hardware.
For NVIDIA, the hardware either supports both or neither, it just needs a driver from the last two years.
For AMD, the drivers from late 2022-12 seems to bring support for the KHR extension.
For Intel, the KHR is also supported for some years.
