Conceptually, it doesn't make sense for a thread to be able to persist
the lifetime of a scheduler. A scheduler should be taking care of the
threads; the threads should not be taking care of the scheduler.
If the threads outlive the scheduler (or we simply don't actually
terminate/shutdown the threads), then it should be considered a bug
that we need to fix.
Attributing this to balika011, as they opened #1317 to attempt to fix
this in a similar way, but my refactoring of the kernel code caused
quite a few conflicts.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
Exit from AddMutexWaiter early if the thread is already waiting for a mutex owned by the owner thread.
This accounts for the possibility of a thread that is waiting on a condition variable being awakened twice in a row.
Also added more validation asserts.
This should fix one of the random crashes in Breath Of The Wild.
This amends cases where crashes can occur that were missed due to the
odd way the previous code was set up (using 3DS memory regions that
don't exist).
Avoids using a u32 to compare against a range of size_t, which can be a
source of warnings. While we're at it, compress a std::tie into a
structured binding.
General moving to keep kernel object types separate from the direct
kernel code. Also essentially a preliminary cleanup before eliminating
global kernel state in the kernel code.
This would result in a lot of allocations and related object
construction, just to toss it all away immediately after the call.
These are definitely not intentional, and it was intended that all of
these should have been accessing the static function GetInstance()
through the name itself, not constructed instances.
This situation may happen like so:
Thread 1 with low priority calls WaitProcessWideKey with timeout.
Thread 2 with high priority calls WaitProcessWideKey without timeout.
Thread 3 calls SignalProcessWideKey
- Thread 2 acquires the lock and awakens.
- Thread 1 can't acquire the lock and is put to sleep with the lock owner being Thread 2.
Thread 1's timeout expires, with the lock owner still being set to Thread 2.
Verified with a hwtest and implemented based on reverse engineering.
Thread A's priority will get bumped to the highest priority among all the threads that are waiting for a mutex that A holds.
Once A releases the mutex and ownership is transferred to B, A's priority will return to normal and B's priority will be bumped.
