This Code of Conduct is derived from
https://asahilinux.org/code-of-conduct/ and aims to apply to anything
Dolphin related where humans interact: bug tracker, github, IRC,
Discord, Forums, etc.
This was added in #10394 for both the hardware and software backends to work around an issue with Mario Kart Wii, Fortune Street, and Baten Kaitos. However, it seems like the software renderer handles blending well enough that we don't need this (and in any case, it's easy to change blending in the software renderer).
Some experimentation with #11387 (not pushed) showed that the software renderer's logic would also produce correct results on the hardware backends with this hack removed, but would require fbfetch (currently); if a better solution is found the hack can also be removed from the hardware backends.
Otherwise, texelFetch() will use an out-of-bounds layer for game textures (that have 1 layer; EFB copies have 2 layers in stereoscopic 3D mode), which is undefined behavior (often resulting in a black image). The fast texture sampling path uses texture(), which always clamps (see https://www.khronos.org/opengl/wiki/Array_Texture#Access_in_shaders), so it was unaffected by this difference.
The former is deprecated and pretty much all modern drivers
support VK_EXT_debug_utils.
Android drivers dont support it. On those drivers,
we use the implementation provided by the validation layers.
Plus two miscellaneous debugger features that I found along the way when
reading Jit64's code for comparison: bJITNoBlockLinking and tracing.
Fixes https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/13127.
Small optimization. By not calling WriteExit, the block linking system
never finds out about the exit we're doing, saving us from having to
disable block linking.
We should expose Enable Controller Input and the turbo settings for
GBA just like we do for GameCube controllers and Wii Remotes.
I just forgot about it when implementing the GBA TAS input window.
Previously, if a user on Windows launched Dolphin from the command line
and specified a path to an M3U file and included backslashes in this path,
Dolphin would fail to resolve relative paths in the M3U file.
