Makes the interface future-proofed for supporting other platforms in the event we ever support platforms with differing pointer sizes. This way, we have a type in place that is always guaranteed to be able to represent a pointer exactly.
This commit: Implements CPU Interrupts, Replaces Cycle Timing for Host
Timing, Reworks the Kernel's Scheduler, Introduce Idle State and
Suspended State, Recreates the bootmanager, Initializes Multicore
system.
* core_timing: Use better reference tracking for EventType.
- Moves ownership of the event to the caller, ensuring we don't fire events for destroyed objects.
- Removes need for unique names - we won't be using this for save states anyways.
The old implementation had faulty Threadsafe methods where events could
be missing. This implementation unifies unsafe/safe methods and makes
core timing thread safe overall.
In some cases, our callbacks were using s64 as a parameter, and in other
cases, they were using an int, which is inconsistent.
To make all callbacks consistent, we can just use an s64 as the type for
late cycles, given it gets rid of the need to cast internally.
While we're at it, also resolve some signed/unsigned conversions that
were occurring related to the callback registration.
Gets rid of the largest set of mutable global state within the core.
This also paves a way for eliminating usages of GetInstance() on the
System class as a follow-up.
Note that no behavioral changes have been made, and this simply extracts
the functionality into a class. This also has the benefit of making
dependencies on the core timing functionality explicit within the
relevant interfaces.
The necessity of this parameter is dubious at best, and in 2019 probably
offers completely negligible savings as opposed to just leaving this
enabled. This removes it and simplifies the overall interface.
Places all of the timing-related functionality under the existing Core
namespace to keep things consistent, rather than having the timing
utilities sitting in its own completely separate namespace.
WakeAfterDelay might be called from any host thread, so err on the side of caution and use the thread-safe CoreTiming::ScheduleEventThreadsafe.
Note that CoreTiming is still far from thread-safe, there may be more things we have to work on for it to be up to par with what we want.
Gets rid of the need to hardcode the type in multiple places. This will
now be deduced automatically, based off the elements in the container
being provided to the algorithm.
