Building on macOS with a recent CMake version would result in the
following error:
CMake Error at Source/Core/MacUpdater/CMakeLists.txt:48 (add_custom_command):
The following keywords are not supported when using
add_custom_command(TARGET): DEPENDS
As it turns out, this form of `add_custom_command` does not accept
DEPENDS, but versions of CMake prior to 3.31 silently dropped it.
The TextureInfo constructor creates a vector of MipLevels. This could be
good for performance if MipLevels are accessed very often for each
TextureInfo, but that's not the case. Dolphin creates thousands of
TextureInfos per second that it never accesses the mipmap levels of
because there's a hit in the texture cache, and in the uncommon case of
a texture cache miss, the mipmap levels only get looped through once.
To make the common case of texture cache hits as fast as possible, let's
not create a vector in the TextureInfo constructor. This commit
implements a custom iterator for MipLevels instead.
In my testing on the Death Star level of Rogue Squadron 2, this speeds
up TextureInfo::FromStage by 200%, giving an overall emulation speedup
of a bit over 1%. Results on the Hoth level are even better, with
TextureInfo::FromStage being close to 300% faster and overall emulation
being over 4% faster. (Single core, no GPU texture decoding.)
Profiling Dolphin using Heaptrack, this turns out to be the cause of
more than half of all temporary allocations. Though since it's in a
separate thread, I suppose it wasn't affecting performance very much.
Combined with the previous commit, this brings the TrampolineInfo struct
down to 48 bytes. This matters, because Jit64 has a big
std::unordered_map where it stores many megabytes of TrampolineInfo
entries.
The key saving comes from shrinking the len member from u32 to u16. It
should be safe to even turn it into a u8, but going that far brings no
additional savings due to how the padding works out.
By moving members of the OpArg struct around, we can cut down on how
much padding the struct needs. Now it has a size of 16 bytes, small
enough for function calls to pass it in two registers instead of on the
stack.
