Currently, the main memory management code is one of the remaining
places where we have global state. The next series of changes will aim
to rectify this.
This change simply introduces the main skeleton of the class that will
contain all the necessary state.
Migrates the HLE service code off the use of directly accessing the
global system instance where trivially able to do so.
This removes all usages of Core::CurrentProcess from the service code,
only 8 occurrences of this function exist elsewhere. There's still quite
a bit of "System::GetInstance()" being used, however this was able to
replace a few instances.
This used to occur due to the VMManager being nullptr at the time cheats were registered (during load, but before it was done). This is bypassed by not accessing the VMManager for offset data until load is complete,
Avoids the use of global accessors, removing the reliance on global
state. This also makes dependencies explicit in the interface, as
opposed to being hidden
Makes the dependency explicit in the TelemetrySession's interface
instead of making it a hidden dependency.
This also revealed a hidden issue with the way the telemetry session was
being initialized. It was attempting to retrieve the app loader and log
out title-specific information. However, this isn't always guaranteed to
be possible.
During the initialization phase, everything is being constructed. It
doesn't mean an actual title has been selected. This is what the Load()
function is for. This potentially results in dead code paths involving
the app loader. Instead, we explicitly add this information when we know
the app loader instance is available.
This gives us significantly more control over where in the
initialization process we start execution of the main process.
Previously we were running the main process before the CPU or GPU
threads were initialized (not good). This amends execution to start
after all of our threads are properly set up.
Now that we have dependencies on the initialization order, we can move
the creation of the main process to a more sensible area: where we
actually load in the executable data.
This allows localizing the creation and loading of the process in one
location, making the initialization of the process much nicer to trace.
Like with CPU emulation, we generally don't want to fire off the threads
immediately after the relevant classes are initialized, we want to do
this after all necessary data is done loading first.
This splits the thread creation into its own interface member function
to allow controlling when these threads in particular get created.
Our initialization process is a little wonky than one would expect when
it comes to code flow. We initialize the CPU last, as opposed to
hardware, where the CPU obviously needs to be first, otherwise nothing
else would work, and we have code that adds checks to get around this.
For example, in the page table setting code, we check to see if the
system is turned on before we even notify the CPU instances of a page
table switch. This results in dead code (at the moment), because the
only time a page table switch will occur is when the system is *not*
running, preventing the emulated CPU instances from being notified of a
page table switch in a convenient manner (technically the code path
could be taken, but we don't emulate the process creation svc handlers
yet).
This moves the threads creation into its own member function of the core
manager and restores a little order (and predictability) to our
initialization process.
Previously, in the multi-threaded cases, we'd kick off several threads
before even the main kernel process was created and ready to execute (gross!).
Now the initialization process is like so:
Initialization:
1. Timers
2. CPU
3. Kernel
4. Filesystem stuff (kind of gross, but can be amended trivially)
5. Applet stuff (ditto in terms of being kind of gross)
6. Main process (will be moved into the loading step in a following
change)
7. Telemetry (this should be initialized last in the future).
8. Services (4 and 5 should ideally be alongside this).
9. GDB (gross. Uses namespace scope state. Needs to be refactored into a
class or booted altogether).
10. Renderer
11. GPU (will also have its threads created in a separate step in a
following change).
Which... isn't *ideal* per-se, however getting rid of the wonky
intertwining of CPU state initialization out of this mix gets rid of
most of the footguns when it comes to our initialization process.
