Regs

    • 1040000000 VU1 regs, mapping like on VU0.
    • 1050000000 VU1 micro data memory (1100C000 on real ps2 and pcsx2 debugger) size 0x4000.
    • 1050004000 VU1 micro data memory mirror (1100C000 on real ps2 and pcsx2 debugger) size 0x4000. Likely mirrored 2 more times on 8000 and c000
    • 104000C000 emulator place here VU1 constants used in popular operations. Eatan/eexp constants, masks for clamping, etc. Similar array can be found in Pcsx2 (mVU_Globals), Dobiestation (atan_const, etc), Play! (GenerateEATAN, etc.)
    • 1030004000 emulator place here VU0 constants used in popular operations. Like above (vu0 don't have efu so placing there efu constants for eatan/eexp is pointless, but there they are).

 I have added vu1's regs, all i did was copy vu0's info and replace 0x10300 with 0x10400 in notepad++, so i'd love it if you could rename regs if they are wrong or make sure that the info i have added is correct --Scalerize

Misc info

Some data that eventually need to be posted on main emulation page. All data posted here is obtained from jak tpl (so called v1) emulator. All data is confirmed in code itself, no guessing (unless said otherwise). Time to start releasing that old work to public.

Misc misc info

  • Both settings do the same thing:
--external-hdd-fix
--cdvd-determinism

--ee-kernel-hle
--ee-injection-kernel
  • Setting take unused value:
--ee-cache-breaks-block
No matter which value is used, 1 is set.

Few popular misunderstandings

  • vu-xgkick-delay take integer between 0-31 (confirmed on both emu and compiler side), and not float (0.5 is invalid, will be truncated to 0 probably)
  • Cop2 rounding in pcsx2 is governed by "EE/FPU" rounding setting, not by VU or VU0.
  • Cop2 clamping is hardcodded in pcsx2 as far as i know, if no then is likely also governed by EE/FPU setting not VU/VU0
  • xx-no-clamping setting is not really no clamping known from pcsx2. This is special mode which can be used regardless of other clamp commands. To compare pcsx2 have similar mode only for FPU (Full), to fully mimic that mode we still need fpu-to-double enabled.

ee-native-function

Emulator have set of predefined functions used in popular PS2 SDK libraries. Those function are highly optimized to run natively on x64.
--ee-native-function=name,address under the hood this is hooking selected address, and replace it with jump to predefined function. Functions available in JAK TPL emu: 

memset      | fptoui           | ieee754_sinf
memcpy      | fptodp           | ieee754_cosf
strlen      | dptofp           | ieee754_sqrtf
strcmp      | fabs             | asinf
strcasecmp  | fabsf            | acosf
litodp      | ieee754_atan2f   | sinf
dptoli      | ieee754_asinf    | cosf
floatdidf   | ieee754_acosf    | sqrtf

This drastically reduce emitted code size for selected function. Additionally there is no need to recompile that at all, emulator just emit jump to label, and that's all. Additionally emulator advance delta clock to compensate cycles which will be normally took by original function.

Example ee_native_floatdidf 

vcvtsi2sd    xmm0, xmm0, rdi
vmovq        rax, xmm0
retn

This is what real floatdidf looks like originally in ps2 mips, you can imagine that recompiled x64 code will be much longer. Every single instruction will be translated/recompiled separately. 

addiu        $sp, -0x30
sd           $s0, 0x20+saved_s0($sp)
move         $s0, $a0
sd           $s1, 0x20+saved_s1($sp)
li           $s1, 0x81E0
dsll32       $s1, 15
dsra32       $a0, $s0, 0
sd           $ra, 0x20+saved_ra($sp)
jal          litodp
nop
move         $a1, $s1
jal          dpmul
move         $a0, $v0
move         $a1, $s1
jal          dpmul
move         $a0, $v0
move         $s1, $v0
lui          $v0, 0xFFFF
dsrl32       $v0, 0
and          $s0, $v0
dsll32       $s0, 0
dsra32       $s0, 0
jal          litodp
move         $a0, $s0
bgez         $s0, loc_2F3734
move         $a0, $s1
li           $a1, 0x83E0
dsll32       $a1, 15
jal          dpadd
move         $a0, $v0
move         $a0, $s1
jal          dpadd
move         $a1, $v0
ld           $ra, 0x20+saved_ra($sp)
ld           $s1, 0x20+saved_s1($sp)
ld           $s0, 0x20+saved_s0($sp)
jr           $ra
addiu        $sp, 0x30

This is corner case example as floatdidf convert a 64bit signed integer to IEEE double, and PS2 developers generally had no reason to use doubles (fpu/vu are operating on 32 bit floats). But you can see that whole conversion is practically done in 1 opcode, while ps2 take massive function to do this. Other functions are usually less optimized, but still really worth it.

EE/VU injection

"Injections" are special sets of precompiled functions, idea is known better as HLE emulation. Available injections can vary depend on ps2-compiler.self, because that's where lookup for available functions is done. This literally replace code that normally is recompiler, with optimized version when address and hash match. Probably not many games can use this. Good candidates are games that use the same engine as currently released ps2 classics. Many times VU1 programs are reused by the same developer.
VU1

  • Name + offset in JAK TPL compiler
  • unk1
  • VU1 mpg start address (divided by 8)
  • Some kind of hash to ensure that correct part of microprogram gets replaced
  • Many other unknown values

EE Title

  • Name used by emu
  • Address in ps2-compiler memory

Please keep in mind that names can be misleading because if function can be reused for EU release, then US inject is used. This happen in Max Payne2 injects.

Example of one entry in emu. 

SCE_RELRO:000000000021A280 stru_21A280     db 'SLES-53830',0       ; game_id ; "Psychonauts_compareFunction_EMeshFrag"

Same goes for "kernel" injections, they are also based on ID + Hash + address. Generally all "injections" should be safe to be enabled by configs. There is really small chance for hash/address(and id) collision. Not to be confused with "native" / "native-patch" !


RESEARCH TO DO

Name Notes
4-Player Multitap in urban reign Weird why it isn't working.
Locating the gs registers Never gonna happen it seems.
Fully understanding the hook functions
Trying to reverse-engineer any eboot to improve compatibility
Locating the proper CDVD read speed (God of war and Ratchet size matters [Both have affected music]) IOP and CDVD commands help
Fully understand what the vif chunk command thingy does Too low and your game will freeze at the intro
Find the the most GIF accurate emulator there is. Kof98??
Find out what some of the gs commands do and edit their description
Implement a EE memory patch for ratchet up your arsenal (Not trivial obviously)
Fix the two tenchu and harry potter games (eughhh)
