Not all controllers have a SDL_GameController binding. This caused controllers not present in the SDL GameController database to have buttons mapped instead of axes.
Furthermore, it was not possible to invert the axes when it could be useful such as emulating a horizontal single joycon or other potential cases. This allows us to invert the axes by reversing the order of mapping (vertical, then horizontal).
Previously we used a vibration filter that filters out amplitudes close to each other. It turns out there are cases where this results into vibrations that are too inaccurate. Remove this and move the 100Hz vibration filter (Only allowing a maximum of 100 vibrations per second) from sdl_impl to npad when enable_accurate_vibrations is set to false.
A vibration device is an input device that returns an unsigned byte as status.
It represents whether the vibration device supports vibration or not.
If the status returns 1, it supports vibration. Otherwise, it does not support vibration.
Sending too many state changes in a short period of time can cause massive performance issues.
As a result, we have to use several heuristics to reduce the number of state changes to minimize/eliminate this performance impact while maintaining the quality of these vibrations as much as possible.
It turns out that after a controller is disconnected, there is a chance that events from the previous controller are sent/processed after it has been disconnected.
This causes the previously disconnected controller to reappear as connected due to GetSDLJoystickBySDLID() emplacing this controller back to the map.
Fix this by only returning an SDLJoystick if and only if it exists in the map.
Previously, disconnecting a controller still leaves a null SDLJoystick entry within the vector of SDLJoysticks mapped by GUID.
When a DirectInput device of the same GUID is reconnected, it adds that device to a new port causing non-detectable input.
Furthermore, opening the "Configure" menu would cause yuzu to crash since it first tries to resolve the name of a null SDLJoystick entry that was not removed.
Resolve this by properly erasing the SDLJoystick entry from the vector.
The purpose of make_tuple is that you don't need to explicitly type out
the types of the things that comprise said tuple.
Given this just returns default values, we can simplify this a bit.
Allows reporting more cases where logic errors may exist, such as
implicit fallthrough cases, etc.
We currently ignore unused parameters, since we currently have many
cases where this is intentional (virtual interfaces).
While we're at it, we can also tidy up any existing code that causes
warnings. This also uncovered a few bugs as well.
If this path was ever taken, a runtime exception would occur due to the
lack of a formatting specifier to insert the error code into the format
string.
Its prototype declared at the top of the translation unit contains the
static qualifier, so the function itself should also contain it to make
it a proper internally linked function.
The deleter can just be set in the constructor and maintained throughout
the lifetime of the object.
If a contained pointer is null, then the deleter won't execute, so this
is safe to do. We don't need to swap it out with a version of a deleter
that does nothing.
Since C++17, the introduction of deduction guides for locking facilities
means that we no longer need to hardcode the mutex type into the locks
themselves, making it easier to switch mutex types, should it ever be
necessary in the future.
Any SDL invocation can call the even callback on the same thread, which can call GetSDLJoystickBySDLID and eventually cause double lock on joystick_map_mutex. To avoid this, lock guard should be placed as closer as possible to the object accessing code, so that any SDL invocation is with the mutex unlocked
Changes the interface as well to remove any unique methods that
frontends needed to call such as StartJoystickEventHandler by
conditionally starting the polling thread only if the frontend hasn't
started it already. Additionally, moves all global state into a single
SDLState class in order to guarantee that the destructors are called in
the proper order
