This patch caches VAO objects instead of re-emiting all pointers per draw call.
Configuring this pointers is known as a fast task, but it yields too many GL
calls. So for better performance, just bind the VAO instead of 16 pointers.
Before each draw call, for every enabled vertex array configured as instanced, we take the current instance id and divide it by its configured divisor, then we multiply that by the corresponding stride and increment the start address by the resulting amount. This way we can simulate the vertex array being incremented once per instance without actually using OpenGL's instancing functions.
We keep track of the current instance and update an uniform in the shaders to let them know which instance they are.
Instanced vertex arrays are not yet implemented.
We move the initialization of the renderer to the core class, while
keeping the creation of it and any other specifics in video_core. This
way we can ensure that the renderer is initialized and doesn't give
unfettered access to the renderer. This also makes dependencies on types
more explicit.
For example, the GPU class doesn't need to depend on the
existence of a renderer, it only needs to care about whether or not it
has a rasterizer, but since it was accessing the global variable, it was
also making the renderer a part of its dependency chain. By adjusting
the interface, we can get rid of this dependency.
All tested games that use a single texture show no regression.
Only Texture2D textures are supported right now, each shader gets its own "tex_fs/vs/gs" sampler array to maintain independent textures between shader stages, the textures themselves are reused if possible.
This is how nouveau calculates the viewport width and height. For some reason some games set 0xFFFF in the VIEWPORT_HORIZ and VIEWPORT_VERT registers, maybe those are a misnomer and actually refer to something else?
This is based on research from nouveau. Many things are currently unknown and will require hwtests in the future.
This commit also stubs QueryMode::Write2 to do the same as Write. Nouveau code treats them interchangeably, it is currently unknown what the difference is.
The vertex arrays will be copied to the stream buffer one after the other, and the attributes will be set using the ARB_vertex_attrib_binding extension.
yuzu now thus requires OpenGL 4.3 or the ARB_vertex_attrib_binding extension.
The Ryujinx macro interpreter and envydis were used as reference.
Macros are programs that are uploaded by the games during boot and can later be called by writing to their method id in a GPU command buffer.
TODO: A shader may not use all of these textures at the same time, shader analysis should be performed to determine which textures are actually sampled.
