Placing the array wholesale into the header places a copy of the whole
array into every translation unit that uses the data, which is wasteful.
Particularly given that this array is referenced from three different
translation units.
This also changes the array to contain pairs of const char*, rather than
QString instances. This way, the string data is able to be fixed into
the read-only segment of the program, as well as eliminate static
constructors/heap allocation immediately on program start.
Many of the member variables of the thread class aren't even used
outside of the class itself, so there's no need to make those variables
public. This change follows in the steps of the previous changes that
made other kernel types' members private.
The main motivation behind this is that the Thread class will likely
change in the future as emulation becomes more accurate, and letting
random bits of the emulator access data members of the Thread class
directly makes it a pain to shuffle around and/or modify internals.
Having all data members public like this also makes it difficult to
reason about certain bits of behavior without first verifying what parts
of the core actually use them.
Everything being public also generally follows the tendency for changes
to be introduced in completely different translation units that would
otherwise be better introduced as an addition to the Thread class'
public interface.
GetName() returns a std::string by value, not by reference, so after the
std::string_view is constructed, it's not well defined to actually
execute any member functions of std::string_view that attempt to access
the data, as the std::string has already been destroyed. Instead, we can
just use a std::string and erase the last four characters.
When searching for a file extension, it's generally preferable to begin
the search at the end of the string rather than the beginning, as the
whole string isn't going to be walked just to check for something at the
end of it.
If an error occurs when constructing the PartitionFilesystem instance,
the constructor would be exited early, which wouldn't initialize the
extracted data member, making it possible for other code to perform an
uninitialized read by calling the public IsExtractedType() member
function. This prevents that.
Like the other two bits of factored out code, this can also be put
within its own function. We can also modify the code so that it accepts
a const reference to a std::vector of files, this way, we can
deduplicate the file retrieval.
Now the constructor for NSP isn't a combination of multiple behaviors in
one spot. It's nice and separate.
This too, is completely separate behavior from what is in the
constructor, so we can move this to its own isolated function to keep
everything self-contained.
If any of the error paths before the NCA retrieval are taken, it'll
result in program_nca_status being left in an inconsistent state. So we
initialize it by default with a value indicating an error.
In some games (Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 2 Splatfest World Premiere, notably), pass offset=0 and count=2047 into the ListAddOnContent method which should return all DLCs for the current title. The (presumably) intended behavior is to successfully return a empty array but because of a < v. <= in an if statement, a failure error code was returned causing these games to svcBreak. This fixes that if statement.
Keeps the individual behaviors in their own functions, and cleanly
separate. We can also do a little better by converting the relevant IDs
within the core to a QString only once, instead of converting every
string into a std::string.
Disambiguates what the string represents to help translators more easily
understand what it is that they're translating. While we're at it, we
can move the code to its own function, so that we don't need to specify
the same string twice.
First of all they are foundamentally broken. As our convention is that std::string is always UTF-8, these functions assume that the multi-byte character version of TString (std::string) from windows is also in UTF-8, which is almost always wrong. We are not going to build multi-byte character build, and even if we do, this dirty work should be handled by frontend framework early.
We always use unicode internally. Any dirty work of conversion with other codec should be handled by frontend framework (Qt). Further more, ShiftJIS/CP1252 are not special (they are not code set used by 3ds, or any guest/host dependencies we have), so there is no reason to specifically include them
Now that we have all of the rearranging and proper structure sizes in
place, it's fairly trivial to implement svcGetThreadContext(). In the
64-bit case we can more or less just write out the context as is, minus
some minor value sanitizing. In the 32-bit case we'll need to clear out
the registers that wouldn't normally be accessible from a 32-bit
AArch32 exectuable (or process).
This will be necessary for the implementation of svcGetThreadContext(),
as the kernel checks whether or not the process that owns the thread
that has it context being retrieved is a 64-bit or 32-bit process.
If the process is 32-bit, then the upper 15 general-purpose registers
and upper 16 vector registers are cleared to zero (as AArch32 only has
15 GPRs and 16 128-bit vector registers. not 31 general-purpose
registers and 32 128-bit vector registers like AArch64).
Makes the public interface consistent in terms of how accesses are done
on a process object. It also makes it slightly nicer to reason about the
logic of the process class, as we don't want to expose everything to
external code.
Internally within the kernel, it also includes a member variable for the
floating-point status register, and TPIDR, so we should do the same here to match
it.
While we're at it, also fix up the size of the struct and add a static
assertion to ensure it always stays the correct size.
A process should never require being reference counted in this
situation. If the handle to a process is freed before this function is
called, it's definitely a bug with our lifetime management, so we can
put the requirement in place for the API that the process must be a
valid instance.
boost::static_pointer_cast for boost::intrusive_ptr (what SharedPtr is),
takes its parameter by const reference. Given that, it means that this
std::move doesn't actually do anything other than obscure what the
function's actual behavior is, so we can remove this. To clarify, this
would only do something if the parameter was either taking its argument
by value, by non-const ref, or by rvalue-reference.
Add asserts for compute shader dispatching, transform feedback being
enabled and alpha testing. These have in common that they'll probably break
rendering without logging.
The std::vector instances are already initially allocated with all
entries having these values, there's no need to loop through and fill
them with it again when they aren't modified.
auto x = 0;
auto-deduces x to be an int. This is undesirable when working with
unsigned values. It also causes sign conversion warnings. Instead, we
can make it a proper unsigned value with the correct width that the
following expressions operate on.
Ternary operators have a lower precedence than arithmetic operators, so
what was actually occurring here is "return (out + full) ? x : y" which most
definitely isn't intended, given we calculate out recursively above. We
were essentially doing a lot of work for nothing.
This can cause warnings about static constructors, and is also not ideal
performance-wise due to the indirection through std::function. This also
keeps the behavior itself separate from the surrounding code, which can
make it nicer to read, due to the size of the code.
Given these are only added to the class to allow those functions to
access the private constructor, it's a better approach to just make them
static functions in the interface, to make the dependency explicit.
This converts it into a regular constructor parameter. There's no need
to make this a template parameter on the class when it functions
perfectly well as a constructor argument.
This also reduces the amount of code bloat produced by the compiler, as
it doesn't need to generate the same code for multiple different
instantiations of the same class type, but with a different fill value.
The locations of these can actually vary depending on the address space
layout, so we shouldn't be using these when determining where to map
memory or be using them as offsets for calculations. This keeps all the
memory ranges flexible and malleable based off of the virtual memory
manager instance state.
Previously, these were reporting hardcoded values, but given the regions
can change depending on the requested address spaces, these need to
report the values that the memory manager contains.
Rather than hard-code the address range to be 36-bit, we can derive the
parameters from supplied NPDM metadata if the supplied exectuable
supports it. This is the bare minimum necessary for this to be possible.
The following commits will rework the memory code further to adjust to
this.
* Implemented fatal:u properly
fatal:u now is properly implemented with all the ipc cmds. Error reports/Crash reports are also now implemented for fatal:u. Crash reports save to yuzu/logs/crash_reports/
The register dump is currently known as sysmodules send all zeros. If there are any non zero values for the "registers" or the unknown values, let me know!
* Fatal:U fixups
* Made fatal:u execution break more clear
* Fatal fixups
* Stubbed IRS
Currently we have no ideal way of implementing IRS. For the time being we should have the functions stubbed until we come up with a way to emulate IRS properly.
* Added IRS to logging backend
* Forward declared shared memory for irs
Preserves the meaning/type-safetiness of the stream state instead of
making it an opaque u32. This makes it usable for other things outside
of the service HLE context.
* Added glObjectLabels for renderdoc for textures and shader programs
* Changed hardcoded "Texture" name to reflect the texture type instead
* Removed string initialize
This isn't used anywhere within the header, so we can remove it, along
with the include that was previously necessary. This also uncovers an
indirect include in the cpp file for the assertion macros.
This was very likely intended to be a logical OR based off the
conditioning and testing of inversion in one case.
Even if this was intentional, this is the kind of non-obvious thing one
should be clarifying with a comment.
Even though setting this value to 3 is more correct. We break more games than we fix due to missing implementations. We should keep this as 0 for the time being
The owning process of a thread is required to exist before the thread,
so we can enforce this API-wise by using a reference. We can also avoid
the reliance on the system instance by using that parameter to access
the page table that needs to be set.
Qt provides an overload of tr() that operates on quantities in relation
to pluralization. This also allows the translation to adapt based on the
target language rules better.
For example, the previous code would result in an incorrect translation
for the French language (which doesn't use the pluralized version of
"result" in the case of a total of zero. While in English it's
correct to use the pluralized version of "result", that is, "results"
---
For example:
English: "0 results"
French: "0 résultat" (uses the singular form)
In French, the noun being counted is singular if the quantity is 0 or 1.
In English, on the other hand, if the noun being counted has a quantity
of 0 or N > 1, then the noun is pluralized.
---
For another example in a language that has different counting methods
than the above, consider English and Irish. Irish has a special form of
of a grammatical number called a dual. Which alters how a word is
written when N of something is 2. This won't appear in this case with a
direct number "2", but it would change if we ever used "Two" to refer to
two of something. For example:
English: "Zero results"
Irish: "Toradh ar bith"
English: "One result"
Irish: "Toradh amháin"
English: "Two results"
Irish: "Dhá thorthaí" <- Dual case
Which is an important distinction to make between singular and plural,
because in other situations, "two" on its own would be written as "dó"
in Irish. There's also a few other cases where the order the words are
placed *and* whether or not the plural or singular variant of the word
is used *and* whether or not the word is placed after or between a set
of numbers can vary. Counting in Irish also differs depending on whether or not
you're counting things (like above) or counting people, in which case an
entirely different set of numbers are used.
It's not important for this case, but it's provided as an example as to why one
should never assume the placement of values in text will be like that of
English or other languages. Some languages have very different ways to
represent counting, and breaking up the translated string like this
isn't advisable because it makes it extremely difficult to get right
depending on what language a translator is translating text into due to
the ambiguity of the strings being presented for translation.
In this case a translator would see three fragmented strings on
Transifex (and not necessarily grouped beside one another, but even
then, it would still be annoying to decipher):
- "of"
- "result"
- "results"
There is no way a translator is going to know what those sets of words
are actually used for unless they look at the code to see what is being
done with them (which they shouldn't have to do).
Several classes have a lot of non-trivial members within them, or don't
but likely should have the destructor defaulted in the cpp file for
future-proofing/being more friendly to forward declarations.
Leaving the destructor unspecified allows the compiler to inline the
destruction code all over the place, which is generally undesirable from
a code bloat perspective.
This was used in two different translation units
(deconstructed_rom_directory and patch_manager). This means we'd be
pointlessly duplicating the whole array twice due to it being defined
within the header.
These variables aren't used, which still has an impact, as std::vector
cannot be optimized away by the compiler (it's constructor and
destructor are both non-trivial), so this was just wasting memory.
std::shared_ptr isn't strictly necessary here and is only ever used in
contexts where the object doesn't depend on being shared. This also
makes the interface more flexible, as it's possible to create a
std::shared_ptr from a std::unique_ptr (std::shared_ptr has a
constructor that accepts a std::unique_ptr), but not the other way
around.
An instance of the NAX apploader already has an existing NAX instance in
memory. Calling directly into IdentifyType() directly would re-parse the
whole file again into yet another NAX instance, only to toss it away
again.
This gets rid of unnecessary/redundant file parsing and allocations.
AsNCA() allocates an NCA instance every time it's called. In the current
manner it's used, it's quite inefficient as it's making a redundant
allocation.
We can just amend the order of the conditionals to make it easier to
just call it once.
* Reworked incorrect nifm stubs
Need confirmation on `CreateTemporaryNetworkProfile`, unsure which game uses it but according to reversing. It should return a uuid which we currently don't do.
Any 0 client id is considered an invalid client id.
GetRequestState 0 is considered invalid.
* Fixups for nifm
We uploaded the wrong data before. So the offset on the host GPU pointer may work for the first vertices, the last ones run out bounds.
Let's just offset the upload instead.
MSVC 19.11 (A.K.A. VS 15.3)'s C++ standard library implements P0154R1
(http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2016/p0154r1.html)
which defines two new constants within the <new> header, std::hardware_destructive_interference_size
and std::hardware_constructive_interference_size.
std::hardware_destructive_interference_size defines the minimum
recommended offset between two concurrently-accessed objects to avoid
performance degradation due to contention introduced by the
implementation (with the lower-bound being at least alignof(max_align_t)).
In other words, the minimum offset between objects necessary to avoid
false-sharing.
std::hardware_constructive_interference_size on the other hand defines
the maximum recommended size of contiguous memory occupied by two
objects accessed wth temporal locality by concurrent threads (also
defined to be at least alignof(max_align_t)). In other words the maximum
size to promote true-sharing.
So we can simply use this facility to determine the ideal alignment
size. Unfortunately, only MSVC supports this right now, so we need to
enclose it within an ifdef for the time being.
* Fix bug where default username value for yuzu_cmd create an userprofile with uninitialize data as username
* Fix format
* Apply code review changes
* Remove nullptr check
This can just be a regular function, getting rid of the need to also
explicitly undef the define at the end of the file. Given FuncReturn()
was already converted into a function, it's #undef can also be removed.
Previously the second half of the value being written would overwrite
the first half. Thankfully this wasn't a bug that was being encountered,
as the function is currently unused.
This modifies the CPU interface to more accurately match an
AArch64-supporting CPU as opposed to an ARM11 one. Two of the methods
don't even make sense to keep around for this interface, as Adv Simd is
used, rather than the VFP in the primary execution state. This is
essentially a modernization change that should have occurred from the
get-go.
The kernel does the equivalent of the following check before proceeding:
if (address + 0x8000000000 < 0x7FFFE00000) {
return ERR_INVALID_MEMORY_STATE;
}
which is essentially what our IsKernelVirtualAddress() function does. So
we should also be checking for this.
The kernel also checks if the given input addresses are 4-byte aligned,
however our Mutex::TryAcquire() and Mutex::Release() functions already
handle this, so we don't need to add code for this case.
Avoids including unnecessary headers within the audio_renderer.h header,
lessening the likelihood of needing to rebuild source files including
this header if they ever change.
Given std::vector allows forward declaring contained types, we can move
VoiceState to the cpp file and hide the implementation entirely.
We pass a hint to the QPainter instance that we want anti-aliasing on
the compatibility icons, which prevents the circles from looking fairly
jagged, and actually makes them look circular.

This also moves them into the cpp file and limits the visibility to
where they're directly used. It also gets rid of unused or duplicate
error codes.
The kernel caps the size limit of shared memory to 8589930496 bytes (or
(1GB - 512 bytes) * 8), so approximately 8GB, where every GB has a 512
byte sector taken off of it.
It also ensures the shared memory is created with either read or
read/write permissions for both permission types passed in, allowing the
remote permissions to also be set as "don't care".
Part of the checking done by the kernel is to check if the given
address and size are 4KB aligned, as well as checking if the size isn't
zero. It also only allows mapping shared memory as readable or
read/write, but nothing else, and so we shouldn't allow mapping as
anything else either.
Previously, these were sitting outside of the Kernel namespace, which
doesn't really make sense, given they're related to the Thread class
which is within the Kernel namespace.
There were a few places where nested namespace specifiers weren't being
used where they could be within the service code. This amends that to
make the namespacing a tiny bit more compact.
While unlikely, it does avoid constructing a std::string and
unnecessarily calling into the memory code if a game or executable
decides to be really silly about their logging.
Given these are shown to the user, they should be translatable.
While we're at it, also set up the dialog to automatically retranslate
the dialog along with the combo boxes if it receives a LanguageChange
event.
Keeps the individual initialization of the combo boxes logically separate.
We also shouldn't be dumping this sort of thing in the constructor
directly.
"value" is already a used variable name within the outermost ranged-for
loop, so this variable was shadowing the outer one. This isn't a bug,
but it will get rid of a -Wshadow warning.
It allows us to use texture views and it reduces the overhead within the GPU driver.
But it disallows us to reallocate the texture, but we don't do so anyways.
In the end, it is the new way to allocate textures, so there is no need to use the old way.
This places the font data within cpp files, which mitigates the
possibility of the font data being duplicated within the binary if it's
referred to in more than one translation unit in the future. It also
stores the data within a std::array, which is more flexible when it
comes to operating with the standard library.
Furthermore, it makes the data arrays const. This is what we want, as it
allows the compiler to store the data within the read-only segment. As
it is, having several large sections of mutable data like this just
leaves spots in memory that we can accidentally write to (via accidental
overruns, what have you) and actually have it work. This ensures the
font data remains the same no matter what.
When a destructor isn't defaulted into a cpp file, it can cause the use
of forward declarations to seemingly fail to compile for non-obvious
reasons. It also allows inlining of the construction/destruction logic
all over the place where a constructor or destructor is invoked, which
can lead to code bloat. This isn't so much a worry here, given the
services won't be created and destroyed frequently.
The cause of the above mentioned non-obvious errors can be demonstrated
as follows:
------- Demonstrative example, if you know how the described error happens, skip forwards -------
Assume we have the following in the header, which we'll call "thing.h":
\#include <memory>
// Forward declaration. For example purposes, assume the definition
// of Object is in some header named "object.h"
class Object;
class Thing {
public:
// assume no constructors or destructors are specified here,
// or the constructors/destructors are defined as:
//
// Thing() = default;
// ~Thing() = default;
//
// ... Some interface member functions would be defined here
private:
std::shared_ptr<Object> obj;
};
If this header is included in a cpp file, (which we'll call "main.cpp"),
this will result in a compilation error, because even though no
destructor is specified, the destructor will still need to be generated by
the compiler because std::shared_ptr's destructor is *not* trivial (in
other words, it does something other than nothing), as std::shared_ptr's
destructor needs to do two things:
1. Decrement the shared reference count of the object being pointed to,
and if the reference count decrements to zero,
2. Free the Object instance's memory (aka deallocate the memory it's
pointing to).
And so the compiler generates the code for the destructor doing this inside main.cpp.
Now, keep in mind, the Object forward declaration is not a complete type. All it
does is tell the compiler "a type named Object exists" and allows us to
use the name in certain situations to avoid a header dependency. So the
compiler needs to generate destruction code for Object, but the compiler
doesn't know *how* to destruct it. A forward declaration doesn't tell
the compiler anything about Object's constructor or destructor. So, the
compiler will issue an error in this case because it's undefined
behavior to try and deallocate (or construct) an incomplete type and
std::shared_ptr and std::unique_ptr make sure this isn't the case
internally.
Now, if we had defaulted the destructor in "thing.cpp", where we also
include "object.h", this would never be an issue, as the destructor
would only have its code generated in one place, and it would be in a
place where the full class definition of Object would be visible to the
compiler.
---------------------- End example ----------------------------
Given these service classes are more than certainly going to change in
the future, this defaults the constructors and destructors into the
relevant cpp files to make the construction and destruction of all of
the services consistent and unlikely to run into cases where forward
declarations are indirectly causing compilation errors. It also has the
plus of avoiding the need to rebuild several services if destruction
logic changes, since it would only be necessary to recompile the single
cpp file.

This virtual function is called in a very hot spot, and it does nothing.
If this kind of feature is required, please be more specific and add callbacks
in the switch statement within Maxwell3D::WriteReg. There is no point in having
another switch statement within the rasterizer.
Lets us keep the generic portions of the compatibility list code
together, and allows us to introduce a type alias that makes it so we
don't need to type out a very long type declaration anymore, making the
immediate readability of some code better.
- Fixed all warnings, for renderer_opengl items, which were indicating a
possible incorrect behavior from integral promotion rules and types
larger than those in which arithmetic is typically performed.
- Added const for variables where possible and meaningful.
- Added constexpr where possible.
When not set, this tells the GPU to only use the X size when performing a DMA copy.
This is only implemented for linear->linear and tiled->tiled copies. Conversion copies still retain the assert.
This bit is unset by some games for various purposes, and by nouveau when copying the vertex buffers.
* video_core: Arithmetic overflow fix for gl_rasterizer
- Fixed warnings, which were indicating incorrect behavior from integral
promotion rules and types larger than those in which arithmetic is
typically performed.
- Added const for variables where possible and meaningful.
* Changed the casts from C to C++ style
Changed the C-style casts to C++ casts as proposed.
Took also care about signed / unsigned behaviour.
This has gotten sufficiently large enough to warrant moving it to its
own source files. Especially given it dumps the file_sys headers around
code that doesn't use it for the most part.
This'll also make it easier to introduce a type alias for the
compatibility list, so a large unordered_map type declaration doesn't
need to be specified all the time (we don't want to propagate the
game_list_p.h include via the main game_list.h header).
Given we now have the kernel as a class, it doesn't make sense to keep
the current process pointer within the System class, as processes are
related to the kernel.
This also gets rid of a subtle case where memory wouldn't be freed on
core shutdown, as the current_process pointer would never be reset,
causing the pointed to contents to continue to live.
The only reason this include was necessary, was because the constructor
wasn't defaulted in the cpp file and the compiler would inline it
wherever it was used. However, given Controller is forward declared, all
those inlined constructors would see an incomplete type, causing a
compilation failure. So, we just place the constructor in the cpp file,
where it can see the complete type definition, allowing us to remove
this include.
This is called ~3k times per frame in SMO ingame.
My laptop spends ~3ms per frame on allocating and freeing this string.
Let's just stop printing this kind of redundant information.
This patch caches VAO objects instead of re-emiting all pointers per draw call.
Configuring this pointers is known as a fast task, but it yields too many GL
calls. So for better performance, just bind the VAO instead of 16 pointers.
The idea of this cache is to avoid redundant uploads. So we are going
to cache the uploaded buffers within the stream_buffer and just reuse
the old pointers.
The next step is to implement a VBO cache on GPU memory, but for now,
I want to check the overhead of the cache management. Fetching the
buffer over PCI-E should be quite fast.
The std::string generation with its malloc and free requirement
was a noticeable overhead. Also switch to an ordered_map to
avoid the std::hash call. As those maps usually have a size of
two elements, the lookup time shall not matter.
Multi-line doc comments still need the '<' after the ///, otherwise it's
treated as a regular comment and makes the original doc comment broken
in viewers, IDEs, etc. While we're at it, also fix some typos in the
comments.
Eliminates the need to rebuild some source files if the file_util header
ever changes. This also uncovered some indirect inclusions, which have
also been fixed.
Now that we have a class representing the kernel in some capacity, we
now have a place to put the named port map, so we move it over and get
rid of another piece of global state within the core.
This isn't required to be visible to anything outside of the main source
file, and will eliminate needing to rebuild anything else including the
header if the SSL class needs to be changed in the future.
The follow-up to e2457418da, which
replaces most of the includes in the core header with forward declarations.
This makes it so that if any of the headers the core header was
previously including change, then no one will need to rebuild the bulk
of the core, due to core.h being quite a prevalent inclusion.
This should make turnaround for changes much faster for developers.
core.h is kind of a massive header in terms what it includes within
itself. It includes VFS utilities, kernel headers, file_sys header,
ARM-related headers, etc. This means that changing anything in the
headers included by core.h essentially requires you to rebuild almost
all of core.
Instead, we can modify the System class to use the PImpl idiom, which
allows us to move all of those headers to the cpp file and forward
declare the bulk of the types that would otherwise be included, reducing
compile times. This change specifically only performs the PImpl portion.
As means to pave the way for getting rid of global state within core,
This eliminates kernel global state by removing all globals. Instead
this introduces a KernelCore class which acts as a kernel instance. This
instance lives in the System class, which keeps its lifetime contained
to the lifetime of the System class.
This also forces the kernel types to actually interact with the main
kernel instance itself instead of having transient kernel state placed
all over several translation units, keeping everything together. It also
has a nice consequence of making dependencies much more explicit.
This also makes our initialization a tad bit more correct. Previously we
were creating a kernel process before the actual kernel was initialized,
which doesn't really make much sense.
The KernelCore class itself follows the PImpl idiom, which allows
keeping all the implementation details sealed away from everything else,
which forces the use of the exposed API and allows us to avoid any
unnecessary inclusions within the main kernel header.
Given std::vector is a type with a non-trivial destructor, this
variable cannot be optimized away by the compiler, even if unused.
Because of that, something that was intended to be fairly lightweight,
was actually allocating 32KB and deallocating it at the end of the
function.
Makes the class interface consistent and provides accessors for
obtaining a reference to the memory manager instance.
Given we also return references, this makes our more flimsy uses of
const apparent, given const doesn't propagate through pointers in the
way one would typically expect. This makes our mutable state more
apparent in some places.
Many containers within the standard library provide different behaviors
based on whether or not a move constructor/assignment operator can be
guaranteed not to throw or not.
Notably, implementations will generally use std::move_if_noexcept (or an
internal implementation of it) to provide strong exception guarantees.
If a move constructor potentially throws (in other words, is not
noexcept), then certain behaviors will create copies, rather than moving
the values.
For example, consider std::vector. When a std::vector calls resize(),
there are two ways the elements can be relocated to the new block of
memory (if a reallocation happens), by copy, or by moving the existing
elements into the new block of memory. If a type does not have a
guarantee that it will not throw in the move constructor, a copy will
happen. However, if it can be guaranteed that the move constructor won't
throw, then the elements will be moved.
This just allows ResultVal to be moved instead of copied all the time if
ever used in conjunction with containers for whatever reason.
Rightnow, in games use GetAvailableLanguageCodes(), there is a WriteBuffer() with size larger than the buffer_size. (Core Critical core\hle\kernel\hle_ipc.cpp:WriteBuffer:296: size (0000000000000088) is greater than buffer_size (0000000000000078))
0x88 = 17(languages) * 8
0x78 = 15(languages) * 8
GetAvailableLanguageCodes() can only support 15 languages.
After firmware 4.0.0 there are 17 supported language instead of 15, to enable this GetAvailableLanguageCodes2() need to be used.
So GetAvailableLanguageCodes() will be caped at 15 languages.
