The Setting class was used for both numeric values and booleans, and
other parts of the code had hacks to make it work with booleans.
By splitting Setting into NumericSetting and BooleanSetting, it is
clear which settings are numeric, and which are boolean, so there is
no need to guess by checking the default values or anything like that.
Also, booleans are stored as booleans in config files, instead of 1.0.
This changes Refresh() to use the existing scanning thread to scan for
devices, instead of running the scan on the UI thread and blocking it.
Also makes the UI thread not block when Continuous Scanning is disabled
and removes duplicated code.
Should fix issue 8992.
Under the hood:
* The scanning thread is now always active, even when continuous
scanning is disabled.
* The initialize code which waits for Wiimotes to be connected also
uses the scanning thread instead of scanning on yet another thread.
* The scanning thread now always checks for disconnected devices, to
avoid Dolphin thinking a Wiimote is still connected when it isn't. So
we now check if we need new Wiimotes or a Balance Board at scan time.
This makes it clear that sending a signal a second time will force stop
Dolphin (which is useful in case the GUI is deadlocked or otherwise
unable to react to the signal).
This makes DolphinWX shut down cleanly, just like it would with
File->Exit when it receives a SIGINT, SIGTERM (Unix) or some signals
on Windows.
The default signal handler will be restored after a first shutdown
signal so a second signal will exit Dolphin forcefully.
When Movie was calling ChangeDisc, it was moving execution to
the host thread just to then make the host thread the CPU thread.
We can simply run the code directly on the CPU thread instead.
Small cleanup by using std::shared_ptr and getting rid of
ciface.Devices() which just returned the m_devices (which defeats the
point of making m_devices protected).
Incidentally, this should make the code safer when we have
different threads accessing devices in the future (for hotplug?).
A lot of code use Device references directly so there is
no easy way to remove FindDevice() and make those unique_ptrs.
Fully opt-in, reports to analytics.dolphin-emu.org over SSL. Collects system
information and settings at Dolphin start time and game start time.
UI not implemented yet, so users are required to opt in through config editing.
Cleanup code style.
Move ActionReplay code->INI saving into ActionReplay namespace.
Threadsafety Cleanup: ActionReplay is accessed from the Host, Emu
and CPU Threads so the internal storage needs to be protected by a
lock to prevent vectors/strings being deleted/moved while in use by
the CPU Thread.
UI Consistency: Make ARCodes behave like Gecko Codes - only apply
changes when Apply is pressed. Save changes to INI from CheatsWindow.
ISOProperties/CheatsWindow now synchronize with each other.
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.
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).
