Fixing all the places it's used turned out to be a more complicated task than anticipated. So let's remove this for now so we don't confuse users with cryptic error messages...
Somewhere in the process of getting the memory peeking right for achievements, the AchievementManager call to DoFrame went missing. This restores it properly.
LoadGameByFilenameAsync sets up a volume reader and hashes the volume, then uses that hash to make the three consecutive API requests to resolve hash, start session and load game data.
CloseGame resets the m_is_game_loaded flag, wipes the queue, and destroys all the game data responses.
This is a small regression from KillRenderer, which caused duplicated
frames to be counted on the FPS counter when the "Skip Presenting
Duplicated Frames" option was disabled.
This fixes a problem I was having where using frame advance with the
debugger open would frequently cause panic alerts about invalid addresses
due to the CPU thread changing MSR.DR while the host thread was trying
to access memory.
To aid in tracking down all the places where we weren't properly locking
the CPU, I've created a new type (in Core.h) that you have to pass as a
reference or pointer to functions that require running as the CPU thread.
Turns out all OSD messages, every single one, are written to the titlebar. We've just never seen them because the FPS is in the title bar and it replaces it in a fraction of a second. This was only visible when saving savestates because it halts emulation for a moment while writing.
This is dumb, let's not do that anymore.
We currently have two different code paths for initializing controllers:
Either the frontend (DolphinQt) can do it, or if the frontend doesn't do
it, the core will do it automatically when booting. Having these two
paths has caused problems in the past due to only one frontend being
tested (see de7ef47548). I would like to get rid of the latter path to
avoid further problems like this.
Fixes a crash that could occur if the static constructor function for
the MainSettings.cpp TU happened to run before the variables in
Common/Version.cpp are initialised. (This is known as the static
initialisation order fiasco.)
By using wrapper functions, those variables are now guaranteed to be
constructed on first use.
