wwylele 0f35755572 pica/command_processor: build geometry pipeline and run geometry shader
The geometry pipeline manages data transfer between VS, GS and primitive assembler. It has known four modes:
 - no GS mode: sends VS output directly to the primitive assembler (what citra currently does)
 - GS mode 0: sends VS output to GS input registers, and sends GS output to primitive assembler
 - GS mode 1: sends VS output to GS uniform registers, and sends GS output to primitive assembler. It also takes an index from the index buffer at the beginning of each primitive for determine the primitive size.
 - GS mode 2: similar to mode 1, but doesn't take the index and uses a fixed primitive size.
hwtest shows that immediate mode also supports GS (at least for mode 0), so the geometry pipeline gets refactored into its own class for supporting both drawing mode.
In the immediate mode, some games don't set the pipeline registers to a valid value until the first attribute input, so a geometry pipeline reset flag is set in `pipeline.vs_default_attributes_setup.index` trigger, and the actual pipeline reconfigure is triggered in the first attribute input.
In the normal drawing mode with index buffer, the vertex cache is a little bit modified to support the geometry pipeline. Instead of OutputVertex, it now holds AttributeBuffer, which is the input to the geometry pipeline. The AttributeBuffer->OutputVertex conversion is done inside the pipeline vertex handler. The actual hardware vertex cache is believed to be implemented in a similar way (because this is the only way that makes sense).
Both geometry pipeline and GS unit rely on states preservation across drawing call, so they are put into the global state. In the future, the other three vertex shader units should be also placed in the global state, and a scheduler should be implemented on top of the four units. Note that the current gs_unit already allows running VS on it in the future.

Citra Emulator

Travis CI Build Status AppVeyor CI Build Status

Citra is an experimental open-source Nintendo 3DS emulator/debugger written in C++. It is written with portability in mind, with builds actively maintained for Windows, Linux and macOS. Citra only emulates a subset of 3DS hardware and therefore is generally only useful for running/debugging homebrew applications. At this time, Citra is even able to boot several commercial games! Most of these do not run to a playable state, but we are working every day to advance the project forward.

Citra is licensed under the GPLv2 (or any later version). Refer to the license.txt file included. Please read the FAQ before getting started with the project.

Check out our website!

For development discussion, please join us @ #citra on freenode.

Development

Most of the development happens on GitHub. It's also where our central repository is hosted.

If you want to contribute please take a look at the Contributor's Guide, TODO list and Developer Information. You should as well contact any of the developers in the forum in order to know about the current state of the emulator.

Building

Support

We happily accept monetary donations or donated games and hardware. Please see our donations page for more information on how you can contribute to Citra. Any donations received will go towards things like:

  • 3DS consoles for developers to explore the hardware
  • 3DS games for testing
  • Any equipment required for homebrew
  • Infrastructure setup
  • Eventually 3D displays to get proper 3D output working

We also more than gladly accept used 3DS consoles, preferably ones with firmware 4.5 or lower! If you would like to give yours away, don't hesitate to join our IRC channel #citra on Freenode and talk to neobrain or bunnei. Mind you, IRC is slow-paced, so it might be a while until people reply. If you're in a hurry you can just leave contact details in the channel or via private message and we'll get back to you.
