== Communication with Graphics Synthesizer in ps2_gxemu ==
Communication from emu level is done with rw to special addresses of what seems to be RSX ports.
Emu includes thin translation layer that intercept rw operations to GS privilaged registers.
Emulator to write or read GS register first need to write register number that we want to access. To do that we use one of two exposed 32 bit ports, separate for reads and writes.
To write GS register first write 64 bit data to write buffer. Separate for lower 32 bit (0xA000304C) and upper (0xA0003048) part of GS write. GS regs are 64 bit while RSX operate on 32 ports.
Finally write translated register number to 0xA0003040. This write starts transfer to GS. To ensure everything went ok emulator performs 32 bit read from 0xA0003000 and check if bit 1 is active.
This operation is performed in loop up to 1000 times until bit 1 is not 0, if that is not the case in mentioned 1000 loops panic is called.
To read GS register first write translated register number to 0xA0003050, then wait for bit 1 of 0xA0003000 to be active. Emulator wait up to 1000 read loops if GS didn't answered in that time emu panic.
Now when bit 1 is not 0, data can be read from 0xA0003058 for upper 32 bits and 0xA000305C for lower 32 bits.
Emulator translate almost all reads to CSR. Only SIGLBLID is readable beside CSR. This is real PS2 GS behavior. Although there is unused runtime that allow read any register. Behavior in that case is unknown.
