libretro/libretro_vulkan.cpp got PPSSPP's libretro core working with
RetroArch's Vulkan integration by globally monkey-patching PPSSPP's Vulkan
loader function pointers (vkCreateInstance, vkCreateDevice,
vkCreateSwapchainKHR, vkAcquireNextImageKHR, vkQueuePresentKHR,
vkQueueSubmit, etc.) so the unmodified VulkanContext class would end up
wrapping RetroArch's already-existing VkInstance/VkDevice instead of
creating its own, and so a fake VkSwapchainKHR (a self-managed array of
images synced against RetroArch's retro_hw_render_interface_vulkan
callbacks) could stand in for the real swapchain that libretro's Vulkan
model doesn't have. Flagged in-code as "a wacky wrapper".
Replaces that with first-class support in VulkanContext for the two things
libretro actually needs:
- Adopting an externally-created instance/device instead of faking
vkCreateInstance/vkCreateDevice: VulkanContext::CreateInstanceExternal()
adopts RetroArch's VkInstance; CreateDevice() gained optional
extraDeviceExtensions/extraRequiredFeatures params so RetroArch's
requirements get merged into a real vkCreateDevice() call;
ownsInstance_/ownsDevice_ flags (the latter set via
SetDeviceExternallyOwned()) mean DestroyInstance()/DestroyDevice() skip
the real vkDestroy* calls when something else owns the object, without
needing to intercept anything. VulkanLoader gained
VulkanLoadFromGetInstanceProcAddr() for bootstrapping from a
host-supplied proc-addr getter instead of dlopen/dlsym-ing the loader
ourselves - vkGetDeviceProcAddr is resolved via the real instance handle
(not NULL), since per the Vulkan spec it's not one of the handful of
commands queryable with a NULL instance.
- A pluggable presentation backend (Common/GPU/Vulkan/VulkanPresentation.h)
for hosts with no real VK_KHR_swapchain, replacing the fake-swapchain-
handle trick. VulkanContext::GetPresentation() is null by default, so
every existing platform's real-swapchain code path is untouched;
libretro/LibretroVulkanPresentation implements this interface directly
against retro_hw_render_interface_vulkan, as real class state instead of
file-scope globals. Several pieces of state that are normally only
populated as a side effect of ReinitSurface()/InitSwapchain() - the
graphics queue/queue family index (ChooseQueue() is entangled with
real-surface presentation-support checks), the swapchain format, and
the available present modes - needed presentation-aware fallbacks since
libretro never calls that real-surface path at all.
libretro/LibretroVulkanContext.cpp now drives VulkanContext's real, public
API directly - no more hijacked function pointers, no more fake surface or
swapchain. libretro/libretro_vulkan.cpp is deleted.
Verified with a full build+run in RetroArch (not just compile-time
checks): the libretro Makefile doesn't track header dependencies
(cl.exe doesn't support -MMD/-MP, and Makefile.common never sets up an
equivalent), so a `make clean` full rebuild is required after any header
change to avoid linking stale object code from before the change - several
of the fixes above were initially masked by exactly that.
Mirrors the earlier Common extraction. The old "core" target folded in
all of GPU/ (~200 files) plus a few ext/ files wholesale; Windows
already treats GPU as its own project (GPU.vcxproj), so GPU/CMakeLists.txt
splits that out too. GPU has a genuine two-way dependency with Core
(Core/System.cpp calls GPU_Init(), GPU/* calls back into Core for
Memory/Config/CoreTiming/etc), so GPU is a CMake OBJECT library: its
object files are always included wherever consumed instead of being
lazily pulled from an archive, avoiding the GNU ld single-pass
archive-ordering problem a two-way STATIC dependency would hit.
Also fixed a few library misattributions discovered while tracing what
each file actually uses:
- GlslangLibs (glslang/spirv-cross) moved from Core to Common, since
it's Common/GPU/ShaderTranslation.cpp and VulkanContext.cpp that
call into it directly. It only worked before because Core happened
to always be linked after Common.
- ZSTD and OPENGL_LIBRARIES/X11_LIBRARIES moved from Core to GPU,
matching where they're actually called (GPU/Debugger/Record.cpp and
Playback.cpp for ZSTD, GPU/GLES for raw gl*() calls).
- GPU also needs Ext::Snappy directly (Playback.cpp calls
snappy_uncompress) and the libretro-common include dir under
LIBRETRO, both previously inherited for free by accident.
Also fixed USE_DISCORD's add_compile_definitions ordering: it was
being defined after ppsspp_ui's add_library call, so the UI target
never actually saw it on non-MSVC platforms.
