dolphin/Source/Core/VideoCommon/Src/CommandProcessor.h, branch 3.5

Ive fixed definitely Pokemon XD in dual core mode. This game is doing something not allowed. It attach to CPU the same fifo attached to the GPU in multibuffer mode. I added a check to prevent overwrite the GPU FIFO with the CPU FIFO. If the game do that on breakpoint the solution can fail.

Fixed ReadWriteDistance calc when CPRead > CPWrite.
Added Token and Finish cause to GP Jit checking.

Added the corresponding change from r352ab2ba4394 into JITIL.

Tidied some code.

This release still fixed the hangs produced by fifo overflow without sacrifice performance.

For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now is fluid 30/60.
Shuffle2: I've delete the hacky line, I think is not necessary anymore. Additional some clean in CommandProcessor.
Please test The Last Story and others games affected in the previous commits and give me a feedback.

Added an external exception check when the CPU writes to the FIFO. This allows the CPU time to service FIFO overflows. Fixes random hangs caused by FIFO overflows and desyncs like in "The Last Story" and "Battalion Wars 2". Thanks to marcosvitali for the research.

Big Fifo Commit Part2: Now the fifo is more stable than my first commit, so is time...

2011-02-17T04:25:21+00:00

- ReImplementing Single Core Mode like Dual Core Mode Style.

- Stage 1: My goal is, we have the Fifo, CommandProccessor code the more clear, maintenible and documented possible. When I quit dolphin I want any developer can continue with the work only reading the code.
	
* Big Refactoring: A lot of functions was changed the names, and modularized.
Now the FifoLoop and CatchUpGPU does not exist, was replaced by RunGpu() and RunGpuLoop().
The general idea is modeling the code like the real HW. The fifo is only a buffer where the Write Gather Pipe write the commands and from the Graphic Processor read these.
* Big Clean UP a lot of obsolete code and comments was deleted, like DcFakeWachDog, "Fifo very soon hack", etc.

In the stage 2, I will refactoring more code doing emphasis in the division of CommandProcessor, Fifo, Gpu Emulation. Beside I will comment all functions and variables in the code (Don't worry I will ask for English help for this part ;) )

Please test a lot SC mode and DC mode :)
Thank you so much for testing always and the patience. I don't like broke your favorite game but... you must believe me this part is very sensible, I only try to contribute for have a better and stable dolphin emulator.

Some work on changing comments, log messages, and variable and function names to reflect that the plugins are not plugins anymore.

Experimental commit and one fix for my last commit.

2011-02-10T04:47:02+00:00

I think that isFifoBusy bring better sync with VI (video interface) because the CPU emulated threads are waiting for DrawDone in BP Register. So, I do some modifications.
1) Rename "IsFifoBusy" by "isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone"
2) Only activate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone when bFF_GPLinkEnable is true in fifo loop "Inmediate mode" that is because in theory this drawsync function is using in this mode.
3) Deactivate isPossibleWaitingSetDrawDone also in SetFinish in PixelEngine, beside when 32 block is finish.

Please regression in yours games thats can bring some FPS more above all with VPS frame limiter ON (Auto, 60, 50, etc).

- Fix waiting in AbortFrame(), please test mp1/mp2 is fixed again.

Good look!

Paused the video thread while a save state was being created or loaded. Performed the save state operation after the fifo became idle. Saved the interrupt status of the video thread into the save state. This helps stabilise the save states in dual core mode in games like Super Mario Galaxy.

Eliminated the plugin interface. Merged DX9/DX11/OGL video plugins into Dolphin. It could still use a lot of cleanup. Lots of things are still named "plugin". Software renderer is temporarily disabled until it gets some namespaces. I only updated vs08/10, Linux/OSX builds are broken.
