Catches up 98 commits from RPCS3/rpcs3. Seven files conflicted:
PPUTranslator.cpp -- upstream fixed the ARM64 float-to-int saturation
inversion independently, and the two fixes are the same fix. Took upstream's
ordering so it stops re-conflicting, kept one line of the reasoning.
rpcn_types.h, rpcn_client.cpp -- our hand-rolled protocol 31 bump was a
stopgap to stop the server refusing us. Upstream's trophy sync (cb175278b) is
the real implementation, so it replaces ours outright.
nv0039.cpp -- upstream refactored the strided copy and extracted
validate_buffer_notify; ours was the older code plus a profiler include. Took
upstream's, re-added the include.
VKQueryPool.cpp -- both sides had real changes. Upstream added a lock around
the pool cache; ours has the bounded occlusion-query wait and the render-pass
fix for the Adreno device loss. Kept ours, re-applied their lock.
VKResourceManager.cpp -- upstream moved GC completion onto a
driver_manager_thread, which supersedes our flush parameter and offloader
dispatch entirely. Took theirs; no callers passed the second argument.
VKGSRender.cpp -- our flush-site counter and their driver-manager drain are
independent. Both kept.
Upstream also began attaching 3D and array levels through DSA, which
EXT_direct_state_access has no NamedFramebufferTextureLayer for, so the GLES
shim gains one that binds and uses the non-DSA entry point.
Reverted in the same commit, because they are what is on the tester's device
and it is broken: the sync-fd handoff, the SUBOPTIMAL acquire fix, the
cross-device ownership barrier, the generated-frame acquire semaphore, and the
deferred-present guard in frame_context_cleanup. Each was defensible on its
own reading of the code and the result was worse every time -- slower, judder
described as nauseating, and rendering faults that outlast switching frame
generation off. Five attempts is enough to stop treating the next theory as
better than the last.
What stays fixed is everything outside the present path. What goes back is the
state before tonight: frame generation is slow and does not release its memory
when switched off.
ARMSX3
Uses the latest RPCS3 upstream code (the recent ARM64 improvements included).
Building
arm64-v8a and armv8.2 is supported. You need the Android SDK with NDK r27 or newer, CMake 3.30 or newer, and a JDK 17. Android Studio ships all of these.
Clone with submodules, then fetch the two third party checkouts that are not submodules:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ARMSX2/ARMSX3.git
cd ARMSX3
git clone https://github.com/SnowflakePowered/librashader 3rdparty/librashader
git clone https://github.com/bylaws/libadrenotools android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/cpp/libadrenotools
Build the core. This is the long part and produces an unstripped library of around 1.3 GB:
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
cmake -B build-android -G Ninja \
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$ANDROID_HOME/ndk/<version>/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake \
-DANDROID_ABI=arm64-v8a -DANDROID_PLATFORM=android-31 \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
cmake --build build-android --target rpcsx-android -j8
Strip it and put it where the app expects it:
llvm-strip --strip-unneeded build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so
cp build-android/android/libarmsx3-core.so \
android/armsx3-ui/app/src/main/jniLibs/arm64-v8a/
Then build the app:
cd android/armsx3-ui
export JAVA_HOME="/Applications/Android Studio.app/Contents/jbr/Contents/Home"
./gradlew :app:assembleRelease
The apk lands in app/build/outputs/apk/release/.
Note that the core library has to be rebuilt and copied again whenever anything under rpcs3/ or android/src/ changes. Gradle does not build it for you.
The Discord Social SDK is proprietary and is not redistributed here. Get it from Discord's developer portal and drop it in app/libs/ and app/src/main/cpp/discord_sdk/ if you want that feature. The build skips it otherwise.
Running it needs PS3 firmware, which is not included. License
