[PATCH 0/1] MR2724: wined3d: Submit command buffers that are built for longer than 2 ms.
by Zebediah Figura (＠zfigura) 15 May '23

15 May '23

This improves performance for the game "Grounded", on a AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, with radv from Mesa 22.3.6. Testing was done with the "cb_access_map_w" option enabled, which also improves performance with the game by itself. From my testing, it's possible to raise the threshold from 2 ms up to 5 ms or so, before the driver or GPU seems to reclock back to the lower power level. However, this measurement is questionable for several reasons. It seems to vary depending on the scene being rendered, and of course this will be specific to the game and driver and GPU in question anyway. The game also has a weird approach to vsync that seems to involve it presenting stale frames (and hence artificially inflating the FPS), which I'm not fully sure I accounted for while measuring. And of course, it's hard to be sure that 5 ms is actually the threshold for how long the driver will go before powering down the GPU. In any case, it seems better to err on the side of submitting more often, to make sure the fix affects more drivers. While submission isn't cheap, it seems to me that submitting every 2 ms is unlikely to cause a bottleneck [consider that this is at most 8 (more) submissions per frame]. The maximum of 4 concurrent periodically submitted buffers was chosen arbitrarily. Removing the maximum altogether does not measurably affect performance for this game either way. Credit goes to Philip Rebohle and his work on DXVK for helping me to notice that periodic submission might make a difference. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2724

[PATCH 0/4] MR2002: Draft: RFC: Extend winetest with multi-arch capabilities.
by eric pouech (＠epo) 12 May '23

12 May '23

Rationale: - currently, winetest is built either as a 32bit exec or a 64bit exec, containaing a bunch of tests of same bitness. - there's no simple support for having parent process in one bitness, and child process in a different bitness. - lots of cases are not covered in ntdll, kernel32 and kernelbase tests. - there are here and there a couple of tweaks to workaround this, but nothing a bit solid. Attached is a proposal to extend winetest to support better these use cases: - the idea is to add an extra-option to winetest.exe (64bit) passing the path to the corresponding winetest.exe (32bit). - when running test X (64bit), the path to corresponding test X (32bit) will be passed to test X (64 bit), allowing it to trigger test with test X (32bit). - nothing more is provided: it's up to the test designer to decide whether to use the 32bit child (and to adapt potentially the test) to cope with the difference in bitness between parent and child. - this can be used either in current wow64 setup, and also in multi-arch wow64 setup (just need to change the patch to 32bit winetest.exe) There's an example of such test at the end of the serie. Comments, ideas welcomed. And especially if it's something worth continuing. Note: - this is first shot at it, it should be improved (especially in ensuring that the 32bit/64bit pair is correct). A+ -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2002

[PATCH 0/3] MR2497: Modules list handling in dbghelp.
by eric pouech (＠epo) 12 May '23

12 May '23

The aim of this series is to re-implement dbghelp.EnumerateLoadedModules* in order to match Windows' behavior (especially in wow64 environments). The serie includes: - a bunch of tests to compare 3 different sets of loaded modules: + the load DLL debug events (generated by kernel) + the output of dbghelp.EnumerateLoadedModules(), which is a wrapper around kernel32.EnumProcesModulesEx (yet modifying some information) + the actual list of loaded modules in dbghelp (SymEnumerateModules). => the later list can be populated automatically from the second if requested to dbghelp (this is what is tested). => for the record, winedbg uses the first set to populate the third set. We just test the content of first set, not the population to the third. - the reimplementation of EnumerateLoadedModules to match Window's behavior (especially regarding paths information) Despite the three sets look similar, they have quite a few differences to be taken care of (especially in wow64 setup). Note: having the correct paths (esp. in wow64) is important as dbghelp sometimes tries some wild guesses based on the path (like bitness <g>) or (in some other places) don't rely on path information and retries things on its own. The long target is to simplify the module lookup by relying on more solid information. @julliard: the paths for wow64 modules returned from kernel32 don't match windows behavior: wine returns 32bit system modules from c:\windows\syswow64 whereas windows returns them from c:\windows\system32 (except a couple of exceptions: 32bit ntdll and exe main module). Implementation in dbghelp includes the correction of this. (I opted not to change ntdll at once: testing on windows show that kernel32.EnumProcesModulesEx returns exactly the ldr_data list, and I didn't feel like adding this burden to this patch ;-). Let me know if you want ntdll to be fixed before this patch. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2497

[PATCH v3 0/2] MR2578: Fixing module paths in LdrPath (corner case).
by eric pouech (＠epo) 12 May '23

12 May '23

The serie intent is to fix unexpected paths in module's list: This happens: - when running under old / (new) wow64 - when main module is located under the syswow64 directory - the 32 bit modules are stored in LdrData (and then exposed through a couple of ways) under syswow64 (they are normally stored under system32, letting the redirection come into play when needed) This triggers a couple of errors in winetest (as we're using c:\windows\syswow64\msinfo32.exe in many tests to trigger a wow64 process from a winetest program). This is the fix awaited in MR!2497. @julliard: I'm not 100% happy with the fix itself by reintroducting ref to the redirected DLLs in ntdll/PE but couldn't find a better idea. -- v3: ntdll,wow64: Unredirect DLLs filename before storing them into LdrData. kernel32: Harden some wow64 module tests. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2578
