This mutex is acquired in SVC::CallSVC, ie, as soon as the guest application enters the HLE kernel, and should be acquired by the aforementioned threads before modifying kernel structures.
The old "Interface" class had a few problems such as using free
functions (Which didn't allow you to write the service handler as if it
were a regular class.) which weren't very extensible. (Only received one
parameter with a pointer to the Interface object.)
The new ServiceFramework aims to solve these problems by working with
member functions and passing a generic context struct as parameter. This
struct can be extended in the future without having to update all
existing service implementations.
Modules didn't correctly define their dependencies before, which relied
on the frontends implicitly including every module for linking to
succeed.
Also changed every target_link_libraries call to specify visibility of
dependencies to avoid leaking definitions to dependents when not
necessary.
This removes a dependency inversion between core and common. It's also
the proper place for the file since it makes screen layout decisions
specific to the 3DS.
1. removed zl, zr and c-stick from HID::PadState. They are handled by IR, not HID
2. removed button handling in EmuWindow
3. removed key_map
4. cleanup #include
All handles obtained via srv::GetServiceHandle or svcConnectToPort are references to ClientSessions.
Service modules will wait on the counterpart of those ClientSessions (Called ServerSessions) using svcReplyAndReceive or svcWaitSynchronization[1|N], and will be awoken when a SyncRequest is performed.
HLE Interfaces are now ClientPorts which override the HandleSyncRequest virtual member function to perform command handling immediately.
