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.
The whole ownership model was getting a bit of a mess, with a some
of special cases to deal with. And I'm planning to make it even more
complex in the future.
So here is some upfront work to convert it over to reference counted
pointers.
Adds a pass to process driver deficiencies between UID caching and use, allowing a full view of the whole pipeline, since some bugs/workarounds involve interactions between blend modes and the pixel shader
This increases accuracy, fixing the white rendering in Major Minor's Majestic March. However, the hardware backends can only have one viewport and scissor rectangle at a time, while sometimes multiple are needed to accurately emulate what is happening. If possible, this will need to be fixed later.
I think this is a relic of D3D9. D3D11 and D3D12 seem to work fine without it. Plus, ViewportCorrectionMatrix just didn't work correctly (at least with the viewports being generated by the new scissor code).
Fixes a crash that could occur if the static constructor function for
the MainSettings.cpp TU happened to run before the variables in
Common/Version.cpp are initialised. (This is known as the static
initialisation order fiasco.)
By using wrapper functions, those variables are now guaranteed to be
constructed on first use.
We don't use sampler2DMS, but we do use sampler2DMSArray.
I can't reproduce it on my phone, but a user who was running GLES
on a Tegra X1 reported a shader compilation error related to this.
The benefit to exposing this over the raw BP state is that adjustments Dolphin makes, such as LOD biases from arbitrary mipmap detection, will work properly.

Running the min/max operation on the upside down, quad-rounded pixel
coordinates before inverting them to the standard upper-left origin
produces wrong results. Therefore, we need to do the inversion before
rounding to pixel quads.
We also need to ensure the the CPU does not receive stale values
which have been updated by the GPU. Apparently the buffer here
is not coherent on NVIDIA drivers. Not sure if this is a driver
bug/spec violation or not, one would think that
glGetBufferSubData() would invalidate any caches as needed, but
this path is only used on NVIDIA anyway, so it's fine. A point
to note is that according to ARB_debug_report, it's moved from
video to host memory, which would explain why it needs the
cache invalidate.
When trying to do a small optimization in 8a0f5ea, I failed to
take into account that WeakFlush and FlushOne update m_query_count.
Only D3D11 and OGL had this problem, not D3D12 and Vulkan.
The STL has everything we need nowadays.
I have tried to not alter any behavior or semantics with this
change wherever possible. In particular, WriteLow and WriteHigh
in CommandProcessor retain the ability to accidentally undo
another thread's write to the upper half or lower half
respectively. If that should be fixed, it should be done in a
separate commit for clarity. One thing did change: The places
where we were using += on a volatile variable (not an atomic
operation) are now using fetch_add (actually an atomic operation).
Tested with single core and dual core on x86-64 and AArch64.
Additional changes:
- For TevStageCombiner's ColorCombiner and AlphaCombiner, op/comparison and scale/compare_mode have been split as there are different meanings and enums if bias is set to compare. (Shift has also been renamed to scale)
- In TexMode0, min_filter has been split into min_mip and min_filter.
- In TexImage1, image_type is now cache_manually_managed.
- The unused bit in GenMode is now exposed.
- LPSize's lineaspect is now named adjust_for_aspect_ratio.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/12245.
I considered making a change to DolphinQt instead of
the core, but then additional effort would've been
required to add the same fix to the Android GUI once
we start using the new config system there.
These are only ever used with ShaderCode instances and nothing else.
Given that, we can convert these helper functions to expect that type of
object as an argument and remove the need for templates, improving
compiler throughput a marginal amount, as the template instantiation
process doesn't need to be performed.
We can also move the definitions of these functions into the cpp file,
which allows us to remove a few inclusions from the ShaderGenCommon
header. This uncovered a few instances of indirect inclusions being
relied upon in other source files.
One other benefit is this allows changes to be made to the definitions
of the functions without needing to recompile all translation units that
make use of these functions, making change testing a little quicker.
Moving the definitions into the cpp file also allows us to completely
hide DefineOutputMember() from external view, given it's only ever used
inside of GenerateVSOutputMembers().
Now that we've extracted all of the stateless functions that can be
hidden, it's time to make the index generator a regular class with
active data members.
This can just be a member that sits within the vertex manager base
class. By deglobalizing the state of the index generator we also get rid
of the wonky dual-initializing that was going on within the OpenGL
backend.
Since the renderer is always initialized before the vertex manager, we
now only call Init() once throughout the execution lifecycle.
