Different address spaces can be chosen in the memory view panel.
* Effective (or virtual): Probably the view people mostly want. Address
translation goes through MMU.
* Auxiliary: ARAM address space. Does not display anything in Wii mode.
* Physical: Physical address space. Only supports mem1 and mem2 (wii
mode) so far.
Prevents implicit conversions to types and requires explicitly
specifying them in order to construct instances of them. Given these are
used within emulation code directly, being explicit is always better
than implicit.
Makes all of the naming consistent with our code style, and makes
parameters match their header equivalents.
Essentially just a clean-up of things that weren't migrated over
already.
There's no reason to use int here as opposed to an unsigned value.
Video_AccessEFB() takes its arguments as u32 values, so we'd be doing
sign conversions for no reason here (along with causing avoidable
compiler warnings).
PowerPC.h at this point is pretty much a general glob of stuff, and it's
unfortunate, since it means pulling in a lot of unrelated header
dependencies and a bunch of other things that don't need to be seen by
things that just want to read memory.
Breaking this out into its own header keeps all the MMU-related stuff
together and also limits the amount of header dependencies being
included (the primary motivation for this being the former reason).
Gets rid of the need to construct UReg_MSR values around the the actual
member in order to query information from it (without using shifts and
masks). This makes it more concise in some areas, while helping with
readability in some other places (such as copying the ILE bit to the LE
bit in the exception checking functions).
The efficient function (that is nearly the same as
https://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#DetermineIfPowerOf2)
replaces one loop based instance (which also reused the xx variable
afterwards, whereas it should have used htabmask instead) and one
instance using the population count a.k.a. Hamming weigth.
If the delimiters of a memory aren't exactly the same as an address, but their size includes the memory breakpoint delimiter, the break will not go through. This makes it so that you can specify a search for a memory breakpoint with a data size and will check if the data fits with that size on all memory breakpoints so the breaks go through.
Currently, slowmem is used at any time that memory breakpoints are in use. This commit makes it so that whenever the DBAT gets updated, if the address is overllaping any memchecks, it forces the use of slowmem. This allows to keep fastmem for any other cases and noticably increases performance when using memory breakpoints.

TryReadInstruction doesn't validate the address it resolves, that
can result in Memory::GetPointer failing and returning nullptr
which then leads to a nullptr dereference and a crash.
Created PowerPC::HostIsInstructionRAMAddress which works the same
way as PowerPC::HostIsRAMAddress for the IBAT.
Dolphin emulates GeckoCodes by fiddling with the CPU state when a
VI Interrupt occurs. The problem with this is that we don't know
where the PC is so it's non-deterministic and not necessarily
suitable for use with the codehandler.
There are two options: Patch the game like Gecko OS either directly
or using HLE::Patch, or use a trampoline so we can branch from any
PC even if it would otherwise not be valid. The problem with Gecko OS
patches is there are 10 of them and they have to be configured
manually (i.e. Game INIs to would need to have a [Core]GeckoHookType
property).
HLE_Misc::GeckoReturnTrampoline enables the Code Handler to be
entered from anywhere, the trampoline restores all the registers that
had to be secretly saved to the stack.
It wouldn't impact performance until at least one memcheck is enabled. Because of this, it can be used in release builds without much impact, the only thing that woudl change is the use of HasAny method instead of preprocessor conditionals. Since the perforamnce decrease comes right when the first memcheck is added and restored when the last is removed, it basically is all beneficial and works the same way.
Fundamentally, all this does is enforce the invariant that we always
translate effective addresses based on the current BAT registers and
page table before we do anything else with them.
This change can be logically divided into three parts. The first part is
creating a table to represent the current BAT state, and keeping it up to
date (PowerPC::IBATUpdated, PowerPC::DBATUpdated, etc.). This does
nothing by itself, but it's necessary for the other parts.
The second part (mostly in MMU.cpp) is simply removing all the hardcoded
checks for specific untranslated addresses, and consistently translating
addresses using the current BAT configuration. Very straightforward, but a
lot of code changes because we hardcoded assumptions all over the place.
The third part (mostly in Memmap.cpp) is making the fastmem arena reflect
the current BAT configuration. We do this by redoing the mapping (calling
memmap()) based on the BAT table whenever it changes.
One additional minor change is that translation can fail in two ways:
either the segment is a direct store segment, or page table lookup failed.
The difference doesn't usually matter, but the difference affects cache
instructions, like dcbz.
Specifically, don't make any assumptions about what effective addresses
are used for code, and correctly handle changes to MSR.DR/MSR.IR.
(Split off from dynamic-bat.)
