Keeps the CPU-specific behavior from being spread throughout the main
System class. This will also act as the home to contain member functions
that perform operations on all cores. The reason for this being that the
following pattern is sort of prevalent throughout sections of the
codebase:
If clearing the instruction cache for all 4 cores is necessary:
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(0).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(1).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(2).ClearInstructionCache();
Core::System::GetInstance().ArmInterface(3).ClearInstructionCache();
This is kind of... well, silly to copy around whenever it's needed.
especially when it can be reduced down to a single line.
This change also puts the basics in place to begin "ungrafting" all of the
forwarding member functions from the System class that are used to
access CPU state or invoke CPU-specific behavior. As such, this change
itself makes no changes to the direct external interface of System. This
will be covered by another changeset.
The interface for shared memory was changed, but another commit was
merged that relied on the (previously public) internals of SharedMemory.
This amends that discrepancy.
The decision was made to name them LayeredExeFS instead of just LayeredFS to differentiate from normal RomFS-based mods. The name may be long/unweildy, but conveys the meaning well.
This will scan the <mod>/exefs dir for all files and then layer those on top of the game's exefs and use this as the new exefs. This allows for overriding of the compressed NSOs or adding new files. This does use the same dir as IPS/IPSwitch patch, but since the loader will not look for those they are ignored.
<random> isn't necesary directly within the header and can be placed in
the cpp file where its needed. Avoids propagating random generation
utilities via a header file.
Cleans out the citra/3DS-specific implementation details that don't
apply to the Switch. Sets the stage for implementing ResourceLimit
instances properly.
While we're at it, remove the erroneous checks within CreateThread() and
SetThreadPriority(). While these are indeed checked in some capacity,
they are not checked via a ResourceLimit instance.
In the process of moving out Citra-specifics, this also replaces the
system ResourceLimit instance's values with ones from the Switch.
This service function was likely intended to be a way to redirect where
the output of a log went. e.g. Firing a log over a network, dumping over
a tunneling session, etc.
Given we always want to see the log and not change its output. It's one
of the lucky service functions where the easiest implementation is to
just do nothing at all and return success.
Both member functions assume the passed in target process will not be
null. Instead of making this assumption implicit, we can change the
functions to be references and enforce this at the type-system level.
Makes the interface nicer to use in terms of 64-bit code, as it makes it
less likely for one to get truncation warnings (and also makes sense in
the context of the rest of the interface where 64-bit types are used for
sizes and offsets
The separate enum isn't particularly necessary here, and the values can
just be directly put into the ResultCode instances, given the names are
also self-documenting here.
Used by developers to test games, not present on retail systems. Some games are known to respond to DebugPad input though, for example Kirby Star Allies.
