This includes device add and remove events, and axis and buttons for
evdev. Will need to sort out X11 input later, but next is getting qwaq
responding.
While QF doesn't currently use nanoseconds, having access to a clock
that is not affected by setting system time is nice, and as a bonus, can
handle suspends should the need arise.
The common input code (input outer loop and event handling) has been
moved into libQFinput, and modified to have the concept of input drivers
that are registered by the appropriate system-level code (x11, win,
etc).
As well, my evdev input library code (with hotplug support) has been
added, but is not yet fully functional. However, the idea is that it
will be available on all systems that support evdev (Linux, and from
what I've read, FreeBSD).
At the low level, only unions can cause a set to grow. Of course, things
get interesting at the higher level when infinite (inverted) sets are
mixed in.
Instead of printing every representable member of an infinite set (ie,
up to element 63 in a set that can hold 64 elements), only those
elements up to one after the last non-member are listed. For example,
{...} - {2 3} -> {0 1 4 ...}
This makes reading (and testing!) infinite sets much easier.
Most of the set ops were always endian-agnostic since they were simply
operating on multiple bits in parallel, but individual element
add/remove/test was very endian-dependent. For the most part, this
didn't matter, but it does matter very much when loading external data
into a set or writing the data out (eg, for PVS).
Attempting to vis ad_tears drags a few lurking bugs out of
SmallestEnclosingBall_vf: poor calculation of 2-point affine space, poor
handling of duplicate points and dropped support points, poor
calculation of the new center (related to duplicate points), and
insufficient iterations for large point sets. qfvis (modified for
cluster spheres) now loads ad_tears.
As per usual, fp math finds a way to confound any epsilon test. So
rather than relying entirely on test_support_points, check the distance
from the sphere center to the affine point and break out of the loop if
the distance is small enough (< 1% of the current radius). This allows
qfvis to load ad_tears without hacks.
Scaling the checks by 1e-6 was a little too tight for very small
triangles, but 1e-5 seems to work well. This fixes SEB getting stuck for
a ridiculously small (for quake) triangle in ad_tears (probably resulted
from some bad math in qfbsp when generating the portal file from the
bsp).
For now, the functions check for a null hunk pointer and use the global
hunk (initialized via Memory_Init) if necessary. However, Hunk_Init is
available (and used by Memory_Init) to create a hunk from any arbitrary
memory block. So long as that block is 64-byte aligned, allocations
within the hunk will remain 64-byte aligned.
I need to write some automated tests for this, and reading of course,
but 1 and two byte outputs look correct. Kind of sad it took sixteen
years to get around to attempting to use the code :(
Mod_DecompressVis_set (via Mod_LeafPVS_set) can be used to recycle pvs
sets, but the set may have been set to everything at some stage, which
is implemented by inverting the set (making the set infinite) and having
1-bits remove elements from the set. This is most definitely not wanted
for pvs :)
Currently undecided what to do about Mod_DecompressVis_mix, thus the
fixme.
Fixes the flickering lights in any map where the camera is out of the
map for a single frame (eg, start.bsp, The Catacombs (hipnotic, hip2m3)).
I knew counting bits individually was slow, but it never really mattered
until now. However, I didn't expect such a dramatic boost just by going
to mapping bytes to bit counts. 16-bit words would be faster still, but
the 64kB lookup table would probably start hurting cache performance,
and 32-bit words (4GB table) definitely would ruin the cache. The
universe isn't big enough for 64-bits :)
The fact that numleafs did not include leaf 0 actually caused in many
places due to never being sure whether to add 1. Hopefully this fixes
some of the confusion. (and that comment in sv_init didn't last long :P)
After seeing set_size and thinking it redundant (thought it returned the
capacity of the set until I checked), I realized set_count would be a
much better name (set_count (node->successors) in qfcc does make much
more sense).
Modern maps can have many more leafs (eg, ad_tears has 98983 leafs).
Using set_t makes dynamic leaf counts easy to support and the code much
easier to read (though set_is_member and the iterators are a little
slower). The main thing to watch out for is the novis set and the set
returned by Mod_LeafPVS never shrink, and may have excess elements (ie,
indicate that nonexistent leafs are visible).
Having set_expand exposed is useful for loading data into a set.
However, it turns out there was a bug in its size calculation in that
when the requested set size was a multiple of SET_BITS (and greater than
the current set size), the new set size one be SET_BITS larger than
requested. There's now some tests for this :)
-999999 seems to be a hold-over from the software renderer passed
through both gl renderers. I guess it didn't matter in the gl renderers
due to various draw hacks, but it made quite a difference in vulkan.
Fixes the view model covering the hud.
Quake just looked wrong without the view model. I can't say I like the
way the depth range is hacked, but it was necessary because the view
model needs to be processed along with the rest of the alias models
(didn't feel like adding more command buffers, which I imagine would be
expensive with the pipeline switching).
