libretro/libretro_vulkan.cpp got PPSSPP's libretro core working with
RetroArch's Vulkan integration by globally monkey-patching PPSSPP's Vulkan
loader function pointers (vkCreateInstance, vkCreateDevice,
vkCreateSwapchainKHR, vkAcquireNextImageKHR, vkQueuePresentKHR,
vkQueueSubmit, etc.) so the unmodified VulkanContext class would end up
wrapping RetroArch's already-existing VkInstance/VkDevice instead of
creating its own, and so a fake VkSwapchainKHR (a self-managed array of
images synced against RetroArch's retro_hw_render_interface_vulkan
callbacks) could stand in for the real swapchain that libretro's Vulkan
model doesn't have. Flagged in-code as "a wacky wrapper".
Replaces that with first-class support in VulkanContext for the two things
libretro actually needs:
- Adopting an externally-created instance/device instead of faking
vkCreateInstance/vkCreateDevice: VulkanContext::CreateInstanceExternal()
adopts RetroArch's VkInstance; CreateDevice() gained optional
extraDeviceExtensions/extraRequiredFeatures params so RetroArch's
requirements get merged into a real vkCreateDevice() call;
ownsInstance_/ownsDevice_ flags (the latter set via
SetDeviceExternallyOwned()) mean DestroyInstance()/DestroyDevice() skip
the real vkDestroy* calls when something else owns the object, without
needing to intercept anything. VulkanLoader gained
VulkanLoadFromGetInstanceProcAddr() for bootstrapping from a
host-supplied proc-addr getter instead of dlopen/dlsym-ing the loader
ourselves - vkGetDeviceProcAddr is resolved via the real instance handle
(not NULL), since per the Vulkan spec it's not one of the handful of
commands queryable with a NULL instance.
- A pluggable presentation backend (Common/GPU/Vulkan/VulkanPresentation.h)
for hosts with no real VK_KHR_swapchain, replacing the fake-swapchain-
handle trick. VulkanContext::GetPresentation() is null by default, so
every existing platform's real-swapchain code path is untouched;
libretro/LibretroVulkanPresentation implements this interface directly
against retro_hw_render_interface_vulkan, as real class state instead of
file-scope globals. Several pieces of state that are normally only
populated as a side effect of ReinitSurface()/InitSwapchain() - the
graphics queue/queue family index (ChooseQueue() is entangled with
real-surface presentation-support checks), the swapchain format, and
the available present modes - needed presentation-aware fallbacks since
libretro never calls that real-surface path at all.
libretro/LibretroVulkanContext.cpp now drives VulkanContext's real, public
API directly - no more hijacked function pointers, no more fake surface or
swapchain. libretro/libretro_vulkan.cpp is deleted.
Verified with a full build+run in RetroArch (not just compile-time
checks): the libretro Makefile doesn't track header dependencies
(cl.exe doesn't support -MMD/-MP, and Makefile.common never sets up an
equivalent), so a `make clean` full rebuild is required after any header
change to avoid linking stale object code from before the change - several
of the fixes above were initially masked by exactly that.

On Linux Wayland however this can be observed without:

Previously the exclusive fullscreen option in the settings screen was
guarded by a compile-time #ifdef VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive, which is
always true on Windows. It now uses a runtime fullScreenExclusiveSupported
cap derived from whether the extension is actually enabled by the driver.
Switching between borderless and exclusive fullscreen currently requires a
restart. This is because once DWM has claimed the window (any frames
presented), ALLOWED_EXT cannot re-engage exclusive mode on an existing
swapchain. A new process gets a fresh HWND that DWM has not claimed yet,
so ALLOWED_EXT works correctly at startup.
The proper fix is to use VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_APPLICATION_CONTROLLED_EXT
with vkAcquireFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT/vkReleaseFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT
to explicitly negotiate exclusive mode with DWM mid-session without needing
a restart. To be done in a follow-up.
Vulkan swapchain now explicitly sets VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_DISALLOWED_EXT by default, enabling proper borderless fullscreen behavior with benefits including better Alt+Tab, VRR/G-Sync/FreeSync, and Auto HDR support.
We can't create a swapchain in this case but we still want emulation to
keep running. So we ditch the last renderpass in VulkanQueueRunner but
run all the rest (if PauseWhenMinimized isn't set).
Now works without any validation errors or hangs.
Doesn't actually use any of them yet, just making sure enabling them
doesn't cause any weird issues. They will be used for the future display
timing rewrite.
Extracted from #16759 and bugfixed. Fixes a leak of Vulkan pipelines.
I guess another way would be to queue the variants for destruction at
the same time as we queue the callback, but I like this better.
