This fixes (*ahem*) the vulkan renderer segfaulting when attempting to
take a screenshot. However, the image is upside down. Also, remote
snapshots and demo capture are broken for the moment.
QFS_NextFilename was renamed to QFS_NextFile to reflect the fact it now
returns a QFile pointer for the newly created file (as well as the
name). This necessitated updating WritePNG to take a file pointer
instead of a file name, with the advantage that WritePNGqfs is no longer
necessary and callers have much more control over the creation of the
file.
This makes QFS_NextFile much more secure against file system race
conditions and attacks (at least in theory). If nothing else, it will
make it more robust in a multi-threaded environment.
QF currently uses unique file names for screenshots and server-side
demos (and remote snapshots), but they're generally useful.
QFS_NextFilename has been filling this role, but it is highly insecure
in its current implementation. This is the first step to taking care of
that.
clang doesn't like the same variable name being used in nested
expression statements, so give the "safety" variables in reused macros
semi-meaningful (based on macro name) tails to keep them separate.
gcc and clang have rather different swizzle builtins, but both do a nice
job of optimizing the intuitive initializer swizzle (I think gcc 8(?)
didn't do such a good job thus my use of __builtin_shuffle).
Viewport and FOV updates are now separate so updating one doesn't cause
recalculations of the other. Also, perspective setup is now done
directly from the tangents of the half angles for fov_x and fov_y making
the renderers independent of fov/aspect mode. I imagine things are a bit
of a mess with view size changes, and especially screen size changes
(not supported yet anyway), and vulkan winds up updating its projection
matrices every frame, but everything that's expected to work does
(vulkan errors out for fisheye or warp due to frame buffer creation not
being supported yet).
Definitely not something for the renderer to care about directly (ie, at
most, a post-process filter setting or palette update, which is how it
actually is currently).
I meant to do this a while ago but forgot about it. Things are a bit of
a mess in that the renderer knows too much about entities, but
eventually the renderer will know about only things to render (meshes,
particles, etc).
The quake-specific enums are now in the client header, and the particle
system now has a gravity field rather than getting it from
vid_render_data (which I hope to eventually get rid of entirely).
r_refdef is really meant for holding the various screen "constants" for
the software renderer rather than the more generic scene stuff. All the
fields referenced by the low level rendering code (especially assembly)
have been moved to the beginning of the struct (and nicely fit within 64
bytes). The other fields should be moved elsewhere, but not this commit.
On top of that, R_ViewChanged is much easier to read, and there are
fewer static globals.
Of course, it's not as correct as glsl or sw due to using polygons and
uvs rather than a fragment shader (not that such is out of the question
since GL 3.0 is requested, but I don't feel like getting shaders going
just for a couple of post-processing effects in an obsolete renderer).
While it's not where I want it to be, it at least now no longer messes
with frame buffer binding or the view ports. This involved switching
around buffers in D_WarpScreen so that the main buffer could be bound
before post-processing.
The code dealing with state is a bit of a mess, but everything is
working nicely. Get around 400fps when all 6 faces need to be rendered
(no surprise: it should be about 1/6 of that for normal rendering). The
messy state handling code did not come as a surprise as I suspected
there were various mistakes in my scene rendering "recipe", and fisheye
highlighted them nicely (I'm sure getting this stuff working in Vulkan
will highlight even more issues).
Finally, after a decade :P Looks pretty good, too, and is (almost)
properly scaled to the resolution (almost because the effect is a little
squashed, but I think the sw renderer does the same).
Again, gl/vulkan not working yet (on the assumption that sw would be
trickier).
Fisheye overrides water warp because updating the projection map every
frame is far too expensive.
I've added a post-process pass to the interface in order to hide the
implementation details, but I'm not sure I'm happy about how the
multi-pass rendering for cube maps is handled (or having the frame
buffers as exposed as they are), but mainly because Vulkan will make
implementation interesting.
For now, OpenGL and Vulkan renderers are broken as I focused on getting
the software renderer working (which was quite tricky to get right).
This fixes a couple of issues: the segfault when warping the screen (due
to the scene rendering move invalidating the warp buffer), and warp
always having 320x200 resolution. There's still the problem of the
effect being too subtle at high resolution, but that's just a matter of
updating the tables and tweaking the code in D_WarpScreen.
Another issue is the Draw functions should probably write directly to
the main frame buffer or even one passed in as a parameter. This would
remove the need for binding the main buffer at the beginning and end of
the frame.
I think the widespread use of recalc_refdef (and force_fullscreen) was
the result of a rushed merge of the renderer and video code (I do seem
to remember sprinkling them around). This cleans the two out of the
client code.
Other than the view model (undecided on the approach) this has
R_RenderView pretty much pulled out of the low level renderers. With
this, I'll be able to focus on scene handling for a bit then getting
shadows and fisheye working (again for fisheye).
r_screen isn't really the right place, but it gets the scene rendering
out of the low-level renderers and will make it easier to sort out
later, and hopefully easier to figure out a good design for vulkan.
Move r_pcurrentvertbase into the sw renderer, cleaning up gl's use of
(not really needed there). Not ready to move r_bsp into the main bin yet
as there are linking issues since only the low-level code references any
of its symbols.
While the scheme of using our own allocated did work just fine, fisheye
rendering uses glGenTextures which caused a texture id clash and thus
invalid operations (the cube map texture happened to be the same as the
console background texture). Sure, I could have just "fixed" the fisheye
init code, but this brings gl closer in line with glsl (which makes
extensive use of glGenTextures and glDeleteTextures). This doesn't fix
any texture leaks gl has (plenty, I imagine), but it's a step in the
right direction.
Finally. I never liked it (felt bad adding it in the first place), and
it has caused confusion with function and global variable names, but it
did let me get the render plugins working.
This moves the common camera setup code out of the individual drivers,
and completely removes vup/vright/vpn from the non-software renderers.
This has highlighted the craziness around AngleVectors with it putting
+X forward, -Y right and +Z up. The main issue with this is it requires
a 90 degree pre-rotation about the Z axis to get the camera pointing in
the right direction, and that's for the native sw renderer (vulkan needs
a 90 degree pre-rotation about X, and gl and glsl need to invert an
axis, too), though at least it's just a matrix swizzle and vector
negation. However, it does mean the camera matrices can't be used
directly.
Also rename vpn to vfwd (still abbreviated, but fwd is much clearer in
meaning (to me, at least) than pn (plane normal, I guess, but which
way?)).
So far, in gl and glsl, but viewposition is much clearer than r_origin
(despite being the same thing), and modelorg is just confusing (I think
it's the view position relative to the current model).
GL still has its own functions for enabling and disabling fog while
rendering, but GLSL doesn't need such (thanks to the shaders), nor will
vulkan (and the software renderers don't support fog).
This is a step towards high-level unification of the renderers, as far
as possible keeping only actual low-level implementation details in the
individual renderers (some higher level stuff, eg shadows, is expected
to be per-renderer as some things are just not feasible to implement in
all renderers). However, the idea is to move the high-level
functionality into scene rendering.
Only CaptureBGR is per-renderer as the rest of the screenshot code uses
it to do the actual capture (which is target dependent). Vulkan is
currently broken due to capture being an asynchronous process and the
rest of the code expecting capture to be synchronous (also, bgr vs rgb).
The best thing is all renderers now write the same format (currently
png).
While there's currently only the one still, this will allow the entities
to be multiply queued for multi-pass rendering (eg, shadows). As the
avoidance of putting an entity in the same queue more than once relies
on the entity id, all entities now come from the scene (which is stored
in cl_world in the client code for nq and qw), thus the extensive
changes in the clients.
The root transform of each hierarchy can be extracted from the first
transform of the list in the hierarchy, so no information is lost. The
main reason for the change is I discovered (obvious in hindsight) that
deleting root transforms was O(n) due to keeping them in an array, thus
the use of a linked list (I don't expect a hierarchy to be in more than
one such list), and I didn't want the transforms to be in a linked list.
While I doubt the difference is all that significant, this should speed
up entity rendering because it cuts out a lot of branching, and
eliminates scanning the same list multiple times only to not do anything
for large chunks of the list.
It holds the data for a basic 3d camera (transform, fov, near and far
clip). Not used yet as there is much work to be done in cleaning up the
client code.
Regardless of whether the sky is spinning or not, the matrix needs to be
updated with the current origin in order to get the direction vector
right in the shader. Also, it's in the update that the required x-y
plane rotation gets in so the skies move in the correct direction.
This actually has at least two benefits: the transform id is managed by
the scene and thus does not need separate management by the Ruamoko
wrapper functions, and better memory handling of the transform objects.
Another benefit that isn't realized yet is that this is a step towards
breaking the renderers free of quake and quakeworld: although the
clients don't actually use the scene yet, it will be a good place to
store the rendering information (functions to run, etc).
This is the bulk of the work for recording the resource pointer with
with builtin data. I don't know how much of a difference it makes for
most things, but it's probably pretty big for qwaq-curses due to the
very high number of calls to the curses builtins.
Closes#26
It's not enforced a this stage, and it would be easy enough to handle,
but it turns out all the standard quake and quakeworld progs never used
... for the print functions: the behavior of PF_VarString was
undocumented and so... tough :P.
With the return buffer in progs_t, it could not be addressed by the
progs on 64-bit machines (this was intentional, actually), but in order
to get obj_msg_sendv working properly, I needed a way to "bounce" the
return address of a calling function to the called function. The
cleanest solution I could think of was to add a mode to the with
instruction allowing the return pointer to be loaded into a register and
then calling the function with a 0 offset for the return value but using
the relevant register (next few commits). Testing promptly segfaulted
due to the 64-bit offset not fitting into a 32-bit value.
The plan is to use the types to extract the number of parameters for a
selector when it is necessary to know the count. However, it'll probably
become useful for something else alter (these things seem to always do
so).
It's currently only 4 (or even 3 for v6) words, but this fixes false
positives when checking for null pointers in Ruamoko progs due to
pr_return pointing to the return buffer and thus outside the progs
memory map resulting in an impossible to exceed value.
Thanks to the size of the type encoding being explicit in the encoding,
anything that tries to read the encodings without expecting the width
will simply skip over the width, as it is placed after the ev type in
the encoding.
Any code that needs to read both the old encodings and the new can check
the size of the basic encodings to see if the width field is present.
I abandoned the reason for doing it (adding a pile of vector types), but
I liked the cleanup. All the implementations are hand-written still, but
at least the boilerplate stuff is automated.
This cleans up dprograms_t, making it easier to read and see what chunks
are in it (I was surprised to see only 6, the explicit pairs made it
seem to have more).
PR_SetupParams is new and sets up the parameter pointers so older code
that expects only up to 8 parameter will work with both v6p and Ruamoko
progs without having to check what progs are running. PR_SetupParams is
useful even when Ruamoko progs are expected as it reserves the required
space (respecting alignment) on the stack and returns a pointer to the
top (bottom? confusing) of the stack. PR_PushFrame and PR_PopFrame
need to be used around PR_SetupParams, regardless of using temp strings,
to avoid a stack leak (need to do an audit).
This is part of the work for #26 (Record resource pointer with builtin
function data). Currently, the data pointer gets as far as the
per-instance VM function table (I don't feel like tackling the job of
converting all the builtin functions tonight). All the builtin modules
that register a resources data block pass that block on to
PR_RegisterBuiltins.
The builtin and progs function data is overlaid so the extra data
doesn't cause too much memory to be used (it's actually 8 bytes smaller
now). The plan is to pre-compute the offsets based on the parameter
size and alignment data.
This will make it possible for the engine to set up their parameter
pointers when running Ruamoko progs. At this stage, it doesn't matter
*too* much, except for varargs functions, because no builtin yet takes
anything larger than a float quaternion, but it will be critical when
double or long vec3 and vec4 values are passed.
Just 32-bit rounding to next higher power of two, and base 2 logarithm.
Most importantly, they are suitable for use in initializers as they are
constant in, constant out.
I found the docs in PR_ExecuteProgram and PR_CallFunction to be a little
confusing, so making it explicit that PR_ExecuteProgram calls
PR_CallFunction and that PR_CallFunction should be called only in a
builtin seemed like a good idea.
And fix an incorrect definition for RETURN_QUAT.
Prefixed MAX_STACK_DEPTH and LOCALSTACK_SIZE (and LOCALSTACK_SIZE got an
extra _).
The rest is just edits to documentation comments.
Due to how OP_RETURN works, a destination is required for any function
returning data, but the caller may not have allocated any space for the
value. Thus the VM maintains a buffer into which the data can be put and
ignored. It also makes a good place for return values when the engine
calls Ruamoko code as trusting progs code with return sizes seems like a
recipe for disaster, especially if the return location is on the C
stack.
And provide a table for such for qfcc and the like. With this, using
pr_double_t (for example) in C will cause the double value to always be
8-byte aligned and thus structures shared between gcc and qfcc will be
consistent (with a little fuss to take care of the warts).
And other related fields so integer is now int (and uinteger is uint). I
really don't know why I went with integer in the first place, but this
will make using macros easier for dealing with types.
They are both gone, and pr_pointer_t is now pr_ptr_t (pointer may be a
little clearer than ptr, but ptr is consistent with things like intptr,
and keeps the type name short).
This required delaying the setting of the return pointer by call until
after the current pointer had been saved, and thus passing the desired
pointer into PR_CallFunction (which does have some advantages for C
functions calling progs functions, but some dangers too (should ensure a
128 byte (32 word) buffer when calling untrusted code (which is any,
really)).
This fixes the issue of the data stack not being restored properly
because the returning function needs to return a value from its local
variables (stored on the stack) and accessing stack data below the stack
pointer is a bad idea (sure, no interrupts yet, but who knows...).
I don't know why they were ever signed (oversight at id and just
propagated?). Anyway, this resulted in "unsigned" spreading a bit, but
all to reasonable places.
This has been a long-held wishlist item, really, and I thought I might
as well take the opportunity to add the instructions. The double
versions of STATE require both the nextthink field and time global to be
double (but they're not resolved properly yet: marked with
"FIXME double time" comments).
Also, the frame number for double time state is integer rather than
float.
While it doesn't cover the addressing modes, it does match the bit
pattern used in the Ruamoko instruction set. It will make selecting
branch instructions easier (especially for Ruamoko).
In some cases, gcc-11 does a good enough job translating normal looking
C expressions so use just those, but other times need to dig around for
an appropriate intrinsic.
Also, now need to disable psapi warnings when compiling for anything
less than avx.
And partial implementations in qfcc (most places will generate an
internal error (not implemented) or segfault, but some low-hanging fruit
has already been implemented).
As I expect to be tweaking things for a while, it's part of the build
process. This will make it a lot easier to adjust mnemonics and argument
formats (tweaking the old table was a pain when conventions changed).
It's not quite done as it still needs arg widths and types.
While working on the new opcode table, I decided a lot of the names were
not to my liking. Part of the problem was the earlier clash with the
v6p opcode names, but that has been resolved via the v6p tag.
Always setting w to 0 made it impossible to use the resulting 4d vectors
in division-based operations as they would result in divide-by-zero and
thus an unavoidable exception (CPUs don't like integer div-by-zero).
I'll probably add similar for float and double, but they're not as
critical as they'll just give inf or nan. This also increases my doubts
about the value of keeping 3d vector operations.
Float bit-ops as well.
Also, add q*v4 and v4*q instructions. There are currently 48 free
opcodes, and I might remove the scale instructions, but they could be
useful as expanding a single float to a vector would take 3 instructions
(copy to temp, swizzle-expand temp, multiply, vs just scale).
It turns out gcc optimizes the obvious code nicely. It doesn't do so
well for cmul, but I decided to use obvious code anyway (the instruction
counts were the same, so maybe it doesn't get better for a single pair
of operands).
This allows the VM to select the right execution loop and qfcc currently
still produces only the old IS (it doesn't know how to deal with the new
IS yet)
When it's finalized (most of the conversion operations will go, probably
the float bit ops, maybe (very undecided) the 3-component vector ops,
and likely the CALLN ops), this will be the actual instruction set for
Ruamoko.
Main features:
- Significant reduction in redundant instructions: no more multiple
opcodes to move the one operand size.
- load, store, push, and pop share unified addressing mode encoding
(with the exception of mode 0 for load as that is redundant with mode
0 for store, thus load mode 0 gives quick access to entity.field).
- Full support for both 32 and 64 bit signed integer, unsigned integer,
and floating point values.
- SIMD for 1, 2, (currently) 3, and 4 components. Transfers support up
to 128-bit wide operations (need two operations to transfer a full
4-component double/long vector), but all math operations support both
128-bit (32-bit components) and 256-bit (64-bit components) vectors.
- "Interpreted" operations for the various vector sizes: complex dot
and multiplication, 3d vector dot and cross product, quaternion dot
and multiplication, along with qv and vq shortcuts.
- 4-component swizzles for both sizes (not yet implemented, but the
instructions are allocated), with the option to zero or negate (thus
conjugates for complex and quaternion values) individual components.
- "Based offsets": all relevant instructions include base register
indices for all three operands allowing for direct access to any of
four areas (eg, current entity, current stack frame, Objective-QC
self, ...) instructions to set a register and push/pop the four
registers to/from the stack.
Remaining work:
- Implement swizzle operations and a few other stragglers.
= Make a decision about conversion operations (if any instructions
remain, they'll be just single-component (at 14 meaningful pairs,
that's a lot of instructions to waste on SIMD versions).
- Decide whether to keep CALL1-CALL8: probably little point in
supporting two different calling conventions, and it would free up
another eight instructions.
- Unit tests for the instructions.
- Teach qfcc to generate code for the new instruction set (hah, biggest
job, I'm sure, though hopefully not as crazy as the rewrite eleven
years ago).
I wish I'd done it this way years ago (but maybe gcc 2.95 couldn't hack
the casts, I do know there were aliasing problems in the past). Anyway,
this makes operand access much more consistent for variable sized
operands (eg float vs double vs vec4), and is a big part of the new
instruction set implementation.
And add a unary op macro. Having VectorCompOp makes it easy to write
macros that work for multiple data widths, which is why it and its users
now use (dst, ...) instead of (..., dst) as in the past. I'll sort out
the other macros later now that I know the compiler handily gives
messages about the switched order (uninitialized vars etc).
This renames existing VectorCompCompare (and quaternion equivalent) to
VectorCompCompareAll and makes VectorCompCompare produce a vector of
results with optional negation (converting 0,1 to 0,-1 for compatibility
with simd semantics).
For int, long, float and double. I've been meaning to add them for a
while, and they're part of the new Ruamoko instructions set (which is
progressing nicely).
The opcode table is a nightmare to maintain, but this does clean it up
and speed up opcode lookups since they can now be indexed. Of course, it
turns out I had missed adding several instructions, so had to fix that,
and qfcc needed a bit of a re-jigger to get the opcode out of the table.
The switch from using pr_functions (dfunction_t) to function_table
(bfunction_t) for keeping track of the current function (and thus
profiling data) broke PR_Profile as it never saw anything but 0.
PR_LoadDebug now does only the initial version and crc checks, and the
byte-swapping of the loaded symbols file. PR_DebugSetSym sets up all the
pointers.
mtwist_rand_0_1 produces numbers in the range [0, 1) and
mtwist_rand_m1_1 produces numbers in the range (-1, 1). The numbers will
not be denormal, so the distribution should be fairly uniform (as much
as Mersenne Twister itself is), but this needs proper testing.
0 is included for the mtwist_rand_0_1 as it seems useful, but -1 is not
included in mtwist_rand_m1_1 in order to keep the extremes of the
distribution balanced around 0.
And create rua_game to coordinate other game builtins.
Menus are broken for key handling, but have been since the input rewrite
anyway. rua_input adds the ability to create buttons and axes (but not
destroy them). More work needs to be done to flesh things out, though.
This takes care of the global variables to a point (there is still the
global struct shared between the non-vulkan renderers), but it also
takes care of glsl's points-only rendering.
After yesterday's crazy marathon editing all the particles files, and
starting to do another big change to them today, I realized that I
really do need to merge them down. All the actual spawning is now in the
client library (though particle insertion will need to be moved). GLSL
particle rendering is semi-broken in that it now does only points (until
I come up with a way to select between points and quads (probably a
context object, which I need anyway for Vulkan)).
This has the advantage of getting entity_t out of the particle system,
and much easier to read math. Also, it served as a nice test for my
particle physics shaders (implemented the ideas in C). There's a lot of
code that needs merging down: all but the actual drawing can be merged.
There's some weirdness with color ramps, but I'll look into that later.
This was needed to get crosshaircolor working correctly, but is likely
another step towards resizable windows (the listener set types are
generic for any viddef event, not just palette changes).
Holding onto the pointer is not a good idea, and it is read-only as
direct manipulation of the world matrix is not supported. However, this
is useful for passing the matrix to the GPU.
This gets the pipelines loaded (and unloaded on shutdown). Probably the
easy part :P. Still need to sort out the command buffers,
synchronization, and particle generation (and probably a bunch else
that's not coming to mind).
This needed changing Vulkan_CreatePipeline to
Vulkan_CreateGraphicsPipeline for consistency (and parsing the
difference from a plist seemed... not worth thinking about).
It turned out the bindless approach wouldn't work too well for my design
of the sprite objects, but I don't think that's a big issue at this
stage (and it seems bindless is causing problems for brush/alias
rendering via renderdoc and on my versa pro). However, I have figured
out how to make effective use of descriptor sets (finally :P).
The actual normal still needs checking, but the sprites are currently
unlit so not an issue at this stage.
I'm not at all sure what I was thinking when I designed it, but I
certainly designed it wrong (to the point of being fairly useless). It
turns out memory requirements are already aligned in size (so just
multiplying is fine), and what I really wanted was to get the next
offset aligned to the given requirements.
The vertices and frame images are loaded into the one memory object,
with the vertices first followed by the images.
The vertices are 2D xy+uv sets meant to be applied to the model
transform frame, and are pre-computed for the sprite size (this part
does support sprites with varying frame image sizes).
The frame images are loaded into one image with each frame on its own
layer. This will cause some problems if any sprites with varying frame
image sizes are found, but the three sprites in quake are all uniform
size.
As much as it can be since the texture data is interleaved with the
model data in the files (I guess not that bad a design for 25 years ago
with the tight memory constraints), but this paves the way for
supporting sprites in Vulkan.
This is needed for cleaning up excess memsets when loading files because
Hunk_RawAllocName has nonnull on its hunk pointer (as the rest of the
hunk functions really should, but not just yet).
In trying to reduce unnecessary memsets when loading files, I found that
Hunk_RawAllocName already had nonnull on it, so quakefs needed to know
the hunk it was to use. It seemed much better to to go this way (first
step in what is likely to be a lengthy process) than backtracking a
little and removing the nonnull attribute.
This gets the alias pipeline in line with the bsp pipeline, and thus
everything is about as functional as it was before the rework (minus
dealing with large texture sets).
I guess it's not quite bindless as the texture index is a push constant,
but it seems to work well (and I may have fixed some full-bright issues
by accident, though I suspect that's just my imagination, but they do
look good).
This should fix the horrid frame rate dependent behavior of the view
model.
They are also in their own descriptor set so they can be easily shared
between pipelines. This has been verified to work for Draw.
BSP textures are now two-layered with the albedo and emission in the two
layers rather than two separate images. While this does increase memory
usage for the textures themselves (most do not have fullbright pixels),
it cuts down on image and image view handles (and shader resources).
For now, just dot product, trig, and min/max/bound, but it works well as
a proof of concept. The main goal was actually min. Only the list of
symbols is provided, it is the user's responsibility to set up the
symbol table and context.
cexpr's symbol tables currently aren't readily extended, and dynamic
scoping is usually a good thing anyway. The chain of contexts is walked
when a symbol is not found in the current context's symtab, but minor
efforts are made to avoid checking the same symtab twice (usually cased
by cloning a context but not updating the symtab).
Multiple render passes are needed for supporting shadow mapping, and
this is a huge step towards breaking the Vulkan render free of Quake,
and hopefully will lead the way for breaking the GL renderers free as
well.
This is actually a better solution to the renderer directly accessing
client code than provided by 7e078c7f9c.
Essentially, V_RenderView should not have been calling R_RenderView, and
CL_UpdateScreen should have been calling V_RenderView directly. The
issue was that the renderers expected the world entity model to be valid
at all times. Now, R_RenderView checks the world entity model's validity
and immediately bails if it is not, and R_ClearState (which is called
whenever the client disconnects and thus no longer has a world to
render) clears the world entity model. Thus R_RenderView can (and is)
now called unconditionally from within the renderer, simplifying
renderer-specific variants.
When allocating memory for multiple objects that have alignment
requirements, it gets tedious keeping track of the offset and the
alignment. This is a simple function for walking the offset respecting
size and alignment requirements, and doubles as a size calculator.
I'm not sure what I was thinking when I made PL_RemoveObjectForKey take
a const plitem. One of those times where C could do with being a little
more strict.
The stack is arbitrary strings that the validation layer debug callback
prints in reverse order after each message. This makes it easy to work
out what nodes in a pipeline/render pass plist are causing validation
errors. Still have to narrow down the actual line, but the messages seem
to help with that.
Putting qfvPushDebug/qfvPopDebug around other calls to vulkan should
help out a lot, tool.
As a bonus, the stack is printed before debug_breakpoint is called, so
it's immediately visible in gdb.
I'm not at all happy with con_message and con_menu, but fixing them
properly will take a rework of the menus (planned, though). Also, the
Menu_ console command implementations are a bit iffy and could also do
with a rewrite (probably part of the rest of the menu rework) or just
nuking (they were part of Johnny on Flame's work, so I suspect had
something to do with joystick bindings).
An imt switcher automatically changes the context's active imt based on
a user specified list of binary inputs. The inputs may be either buttons
(indicated as +button) or cvars (bare name). For buttons, the
pressed/not pressed state is used, and cvars are interpreted as ints
being 0 or not 0. The order of the inputs determines the bit number of
the input, with the first input being bit 0, second bit 1, third bit 2
etc. A default imt is given so large switchers do not need to be fully
configured (the default imt is written to all states).
A context can have any number of switchers attached. The switchers can
wind up fighting over the active imt, but this seems to be something for
the "user" (eg, configuration system) to sort out rather than the
switcher code enforcing anything.
As a result of the inputs being treated as bits, a switcher with N
inputs will have 2**N states, thus there's a maximum of 16 inputs for
now as 65536 states is a lot of configuration.
Using a switcher, setting up a standard strafe/mouse look configuration
is fairly easy.
imt_create key_game imt_mod
imt_create key_game imt_mod_strafe imt_mod
imt_create key_game imt_mod_freelook

imt_switcher_create mouse key_game imt_mod_strafe +strafe lookstrafe +mlook freelook
imt_switcher 0 imt_mod 2 imt_mod 4 imt_mod_freelook 8 imt_mod_freelook 12 imt_mod_freelook
imt_switcher 6 imt_mod_lookstrafe 10 imt_mod_lookstrafe 14 imt_mod_lookstrafe
in_bind imt_mod mouse axis 0 move.yaw
in_bind imt_mod mouse axis 1 move.forward
in_bind imt_mod_strafe mouse axis 0 move.side
in_bind imt_mod_lookstrafe mouse axis 0 move.side
in_bind imt_mod_freelook mouse axis 1 move.pitch
This takes advantage of imt chaining and the default imt for the
switcher (there are 8 states that use imt_mod_strafe).
The switcher name must be unique across all contexts, and every imt used
in a switcher must be in the switcher's context.
The listener is invoked when the axis value changes due to IN_UpdateAxis
or IN_ClampAxis updating the axis. This does mean the listener
invocation make be somewhat delayed. I am a tad uncertain about this
design thus it being a separate commit.
Listeners are separate to the main callback as listeners have only
read-only access to the objects, but the main callback is free to modify
the cvar and thus can act as a parser and validator. The listeners are
invoked after the main callback if the cvar is modified. There does not
need to be a main callback for the listeners to be invoked.
I decided cvars and input buttons/axes need listeners so any changes to
them can be propagated. This will make using cvars in bindings feasible
and I have an idea for automatic imt switching that would benefit from
listeners attached to buttons and cvars.
Combining absolute and relative inputs at the binding does not work well
because absolute inputs generally update only when the physical input
updates, so clearing the axis input each frame results in a brief pulse
from the physical input, but relative inputs must be cleared each frame
(where frame here is each time the axis is read) but must accumulate the
relative updates between frames.
Other than the axis mode being incorrect, this seems to work quite
nicely.
This is the first step in the long-sought goal of allowing the window
size to change, but is required for passing on getting window position
and size information (though size is in viddef, it makes sense to pass
both together).
Input driver can now have an optional init_cvars function. This allows
them to create all their cvars before the actual init pass thus avoiding
some initialization order interdependency issues (in this case, fixing a
segfault when starting x11 clients fullscreen due to the in_dga cvar not
existing yet).
keyhelp provides the input name if it is known, and in_bind tries to use
the provided input name if not a number. Case sensitivity for name
lookups is dependent on the input driver.
There's now an internal event handler for taking care of device addition
and removal, and a public event handler for dealing with device input
events in various contexts In particular, so the clients can check for
the escape key.
While the console command line is quite good for setting everything up,
the devices being bound do need to be present when the commands are
executed (due to needing extra data provided by the devices). Thus
property lists that store the extra data (button and axis counts, device
names/ids, connection names, etc) seems to be the best solution.
The mouse bound to movement axes works (though signs are all over the
place, so movement direction is a little off), and binding F10 (key 68)
to quit works :)
Each axis binding has its own recipe (meaning the same input axis can be
interpreted differently for each binding)
Recipes are specified with field=value pairs after the axis name.
Valid fields are minzone, maxzone, deadzone, curve and scale, with
deadzone doubling as a balanced/unbalanced flag.
The default recipe has no zones, is balanced, and curve and scale are 1.
Hot-plug support is done via "connections" (not sure I'm happy with the
name) that provide a user specifiable name to input devices. The
connections record the device name (eg, "6d spacemouse") and id (usually
usb path for evdev devices, but may be the device unique id if
available) and whether automatic reconnection should match just the
device name or both device name and id (prevents problems with changing
the device connected to the one usb port).
Unnecessary enum removed, and the imt block struct moved to imt.c
(doesn't need to be public). Also, remove device name from the imt block
(and thus the parameter to the functions) as it turns out not to be
needed.
in_bind is only partially implemented (waiting on imt), but device
listing, device naming, and input identification are working. The event
handling system made for a fairly clean implementation for input
identification thanks to the focused event handling.
This has smashed the keydest handling for many things, and bindings, but
seems to be a good start with the new input system: the console in
qw-client-x11 is usable (keyboard-only).
The button and axis values have been removed from the knum_t enum as
mouse events are separate from key events, and other button and axis
inputs will be handled separately.
keys.c has been disabled in the build as it is obsolute (thus much of
the breakage).
For the mouse in x11, I'm not sure which is more cooked: deltas or
window-relative coordinates, but I don't imagine that really matters too
much. However, keyboard and mouse events suitable for 2D user interfaces
are sent at the same time as the more game oriented button and axis events.
Input Mapping Tables are still at the core as they are a good concept,
however they include both axis and button mappings, and the size is not
hard-coded, but dependent on the known devices. Not much actually works
yet (nq segfaults when a key is pressed).
kbutton_t is now in_button_t and has been moved to input.h. Also, a
button registration function has been added to take care of +button and
-button command creation and, eventually, direct binding of "physical"
buttons to logical buttons. "Physical" buttons are those coming in from
the OS (keyboard, mouse, joystick...), logical buttons are what the code
looks at for button state.
Additionally, the button edge detection code has been cleaned up such
that it no longer uses magic numbers, and the conversion to a float is
cleaner. Interestingly, I found that the handling is extremely
frame-rate dependent (eg, +forward will accelerate the player to full
speed much faster at 72fps than it does at 20fps). This may be a factor
in why gamers are frame rate obsessed: other games doing the same thing
would certainly feel different under varying frame rates.
For drivers that support it. Polling is still supported and forces the
select timeout to 0 if any driver requires polling. For now, the default
timeout when all drivers use select is 10ms.
I had forgotten that _size was the number of rows in the map, not the
number of objects (1024 objects per row). This fixes the missed device
removal messages. And probably a slew of other bugs I'd yet to encounter
:P
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.
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).
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.
The output fat-pvs data is the *difference* between the base pvs and fat
pvs. This currently makes for about 64kB savings for marcher.bsp, and
about 233MB savings for ad_tears.bsp (or about 50% (470.7MB->237.1MB)).
I expect using utf-8 encoding for the run lengths to make for even
bigger savings (the second output fat-pvs leaf of marcher.bsp is all 0s,
or 6 bytes in the file, which would reduce to 3 bytes using utf-8).
