macos: add x86_64 Intel support (#122)

* macos: add x86_64 Intel support

* aurora: construct texture replacement index entries

* Switch back to LLVM 22 so build can succeed on at least some systems (#141)

two upstream LLVM bugs currently prevent building on some of the newest distros. There is no current LLVM release that works on them so we are pending fixes from LLVM
https://github.com/patchzyy/Wiicompiled/issues/136

* Fix GC Pocket+ rumble stop handling (#148)

* macos: package universal setup tools

* ci: build macOS input expression tests

* runtime: Do not force 14.0 minimum anymore

new minimum is 12.0

* Update network_socket.cpp

* fix(macos): increase guest fiber stack size (#154)

* v0.2.28

* Update settings_overlay.cpp

* macos: support older libc++ algorithms

* Load console identity from NAND setting.txt (#164)

* Add synthetic recompilation CI workflow (#161)

* version

* macos: allow undefined MTLLogStateDescriptor for older SDKs

* tests: deflake input expression timing window test

* import setting.txt (#169)

* import setting.txt

* coderabbit ugh

* Treat empty MKW save as missing rather than corrupt (#168)

* treat empty mkw save as missing

first-run format zero-fills rksys.dat before any real save; a quit before
the first save left an all-zero file that read back as corrupt and trapped
the user in a delete/recreate loop. read opens now treat an all-zero
rksys.dat as absent (a real save always begins with the RKSD0006 header),
so the game recreates it from scratch. also ignore native build output.

* shorten

* I dont really want to change this to be honest.

* extra safety

-# MetalFX spatial upscaling: renderer integration and tests
-
-Aurora can now upscale the completed game image with MetalFX before aspect-fit
-presentation and ImGui composition. It is opt-in and requires macOS 13+, a
-supported Metal device, and Dawn IOSurface/shared-event support. Other backends
-and builds without the MetalFX SDK use a stub and the existing presentation path.
-The MetalFX framework is weak-linked; the game's deployment target is unchanged.
-
-## Trying the renderer integration
-
-Use F10 → Graphics → MetalFX spatial upscaling. Then use the existing
-Resolution control to render below the output viewport's size.
-Both source dimensions must be smaller than the output dimensions. Equal-size
-rendering, supersampling, and unsupported source formats bypass MetalFX. In
-particular, Auto (window size) generally offers no upscaling opportunity.
-
-The F10 toggle is saved in `Config.toml` as
-`video.metalfx_spatial_upscaling`. It uses these thread-safe Aurora entry points:
-
-- `aurora_set_metalfx_spatial(bool)` requests a change at the next sealed frame.
-- `aurora_get_metalfx_spatial()` returns the requested setting.
-- `aurora_is_metalfx_spatial_supported()` reports device/build support.
-- `aurora_get_metalfx_status()` distinguishes Disabled, Unsupported,
-  Not Upscaling, Active, and Error. A busy resize-retirement pool temporarily
-  bypasses upscaling and retries on a later frame. Other upscaler errors log a
-  reason and use normal presentation until a disabled frame resets the error.
-
-The game's HUD is part of the source image and is upscaled. ImGui/F10/FPS overlays
-are composed afterward at output resolution. Existing source-frame captures
-still capture the original source image. The interpolation snapshot call sites
-all use the same upscaling hook; game-specific interpolation remains untested.
-
-## GPU path and ownership
-
-1. Request Dawn's `SharedTextureMemoryIOSurface` and `SharedFenceMTLSharedEvent`
-   features when the Metal adapter supports both. Use that Dawn device's native
-   `MTLDevice`, not a separately selected default device.
-2. Cache MaxInterpolatedFrames + 1 upscaling slots with IOSurface-backed input and output textures,
-   a spatial scaler, a private MetalFX output, and shared-event dependencies.
-   Check texture formats, dimensions, usages, and device size limits on creation.
-3. Begin Dawn input access, copy the completed game image at its source size,
-   and submit the scene plus copy. End input access and wait for Dawn's
-   `commandsScheduledFuture` before submitting dependent native Metal work.
-4. On the native queue, wait for input rendering and any prior Dawn consumption
-   of the shared output. Encode MetalFX into its required **private** output
-   texture, then GPU-blit the result into the output IOSurface and signal an event.
-5. After native scheduling, begin Dawn output access with that event/value.
-   Composite the upscaled image into the existing content viewport, retaining
-   letterboxing, then draw ImGui. Submit and end output access. Reuse observes
-   both Dawn-to-Metal and Metal-to-Dawn event dependencies.
-6. GPU completion callbacks retain resources after a cache entry is replaced,
-   disabled, or shut down. At most eight resource sets may exist (four current
-   plus four retiring); rapid resizing cannot allocate an unbounded queue.
-
-CPU scheduling waits remain, but there are no CPU image transfers or per-frame
-GPU-completion waits in the upscaling path. There is one source-size GPU copy
-and one full-output GPU blit. Their cost must be measured before promising a
-performance gain. The input copy follows the existing perceptual/unorm sampling
-path. sRGB texture formats bypass MetalFX to avoid implicit color conversion.
-
-## Standalone GPU regression test
-
-The test builds the actual `lib/webgpu/metalfx.mm` implementation. Point
-`Dawn_DIR` at the package used by an existing Aurora build:
-
-```sh
-cmake -S aurora-main/tests/metalfx_interop -B build-metalfx-interop \
-  -DDawn_DIR="/absolute/path/to/dawn_prebuilt-src/lib/cmake/Dawn" \
-  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
-cmake --build build-metalfx-interop
-MTL_DEBUG_LAYER=1 MTL_SHADER_VALIDATION=1 \
-  ctest --test-dir build-metalfx-interop --output-on-failure -V
-```
-
-The GPU test returns 77 (CTest **Skipped**) when no Metal adapter, required
-sharing features, or spatial scaler is available. A skip is not evidence of
-interoperability. Sandboxed processes may need GPU access. CTest imposes a
-60-second timeout. The separate stub test needs no GPU.
-
-Tested on Apple M3, macOS 26.5.1, using Aurora's existing Dawn package
-(`v20260603.191052`). Metal API and GPU validation were enabled:
-
-| Formats | Input | Output | Frames per format |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| RGBA8Unorm, BGRA8Unorm | 64 × 48 | 128 × 96 | 24 |
-| RGBA8Unorm, BGRA8Unorm | 320 × 180 | 480 × 270 | 24 |
-| RGBA8Unorm, BGRA8Unorm | 960 × 540 | 1920 × 1080 | 24 |
-
-All 144 frames and 2,304 interior pixel samples passed. Red changes per frame;
-green and blue distinguish left/right and top/bottom. All channels are checked
-within five 8-bit levels, catching stale images, orientation/channel mistakes,
-and missing output. Tests cover 1.5× and 2× scaling, padded readback rows, slot
-reuse, dropping wrappers before readback completion, invalid dimensions/sRGB
-formats, the eight-set allocation bound, and the unavailable-backend stub.
-
-Readback is only the test oracle and is absent from the game upscaling path.
-These samples do not measure reconstruction quality at edges or race performance.
-
-## Windowed presentation test
-
-This optional target exercises Aurora's actual frame submission and presentation
-with a synthetic source and an ImGui overlay. It requires no Wii game data and
-creates an automatically closing test window. Add the option to an existing
-from-source runtime build (the normal dependency/provider options still apply):
-
-```sh
-cmake -S runtime -B build-macos -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-  -DAURORA_BUILD_METALFX_PRESENTATION_TEST=ON
-cmake --build build-macos --target metalfx_presentation_test
-MTL_DEBUG_LAYER=1 MTL_SHADER_VALIDATION=1 \
-  ./build-macos/aurora-build/metalfx_presentation_test
-```
-
-On the same M3, all 84 frames passed with Metal API/GPU validation: disabled,
-enabled, window resize, 4:3/16:9 aspect changes, native-size bypass, disable, and
-re-enable. Assertions check renderer status and errors; this is not a pixel-level
-verification of the window image. The core build and macOS 12 deployment-target
-availability compilation also passed. Full Mario Kart gameplay, race performance,
-visual quality, Intel Macs, other Apple GPUs, older macOS runtime versions, and
-non-macOS full builds remain untested.

-# Building WiiCompiled and Retro Rewind on macOS
-
-This guide covers building **WiiCompiled** (base game) and **Retro Rewind** from source on macOS for Apple Silicon (`arm64`). Follow these instructions to compile the native executables directly.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> If you only want to build the base game (**WiiCompiled**), look for sections marked **`(Skip if only building WiiCompiled)`** to bypass Retro Rewind and online payload steps.
-
----
-
-## 1. Prerequisites
-
-### System Requirements
-- **Hardware**: Apple Silicon Mac (M1/M2/M3/M4)
-- **Operating System**: macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later
-- **Xcode Command Line Tools**:
-  ```bash
-  xcode-select --install
-  ```
-
-### Toolchain Dependencies
-Install the required tools using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):
-```bash
-brew install cmake ninja
-brew install --cask dotnet-sdk@8
-```
-
-Verify that Clang, CMake, Ninja, and the .NET 8 runtime are available:
-```bash
-clang --version
-cmake --version
-ninja --version
-dotnet --list-runtimes   # Must list Microsoft.NETCore.App 8.x
-```
-
----
-
-## 2. Required Game and Mod Assets
-
-Due to legal requirements, no proprietary Nintendo assets or code are included in this repository. You must provide your own legally dumped game files.
-
-1. **Mario Kart Wii PAL (`RMCP01`) Disc Image** *(Required)*:
-   - Supported formats: `.iso`, `.wbfs`, `.ciso`, `.rvz`, `.gcm`, `.gcz`.
-2. **nodtool** *(Required for disc extraction)*:
-   - Download the macOS Apple Silicon binary of [nodtool](https://github.com/encounter/nod/releases):
-     ```bash
-     curl -fsSL "https://github.com/encounter/nod/releases/download/v2.0.0-alpha.10/nodtool-macos-arm64" -o nodtool
-     chmod +x nodtool
-     ```
-3. **Retro Rewind Distribution** *(Skip if only building WiiCompiled)*:
-   - Download the [Retro Rewind](https://wiki.tockdom.com/wiki/Retro_Rewind) release package. You will need the `RetroRewind6` folder (which contains `Binaries/Code.pul`).
-4. **Retro-WFC Payload** *(Skip if only building WiiCompiled or building offline)*:
-   - Required for online multiplayer on Retro Rewind. Downloaded during setup from `https://rwfc.net/api/wfc/payload?g=RMCPD00`.
-
----
-
-## 3. Step 1: Extract Disc Assets
-
-Extract your clean PAL `RMCP01` disc into the `Assets/` directory of the repository:

-## 4. Step 2: Build the Translator CLI
-
-Compile the static recompiler CLI:
-
-```bash
-dotnet build translator/src/Translator.Cli/Translator.Cli.csproj -c Release
-```
-
-Define a shell function to invoke the translator (ensuring paths with spaces are handled safely):
-```bash
-translator() {
-  dotnet "$(pwd)/translator/src/Translator.Cli/bin/Release/net8.0/Translator.Cli.dll" "$@"
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## 5. Step 3: Translation
-
-### A. Translate Base Game Functions
-```bash
-mkdir -p generated/functions build/base
-
-translator translate-recursive 0x800060A4 \
-  --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml \
-  --outdir generated/functions \
-  --output-metadata generated/base_translation_output.json \
-  --production-source-bundle generated/base_translation_sources.bin \
-  --no-function-files \
-  --prune-stale \
-  --threads $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
-```
-
-### B. Emit Base Manifest
-```bash
-translator emit-base-manifest \
-  --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml \
-  --out build/base \
-  --functions-dir generated/functions \
-  --translation-output-metadata generated/base_translation_output.json \
-  --region P
-```
-
----
-
-### C. Stage and Translate Retro Rewind *(Skip this step if you only want to build WiiCompiled)*
-
-1. Stage `Code.pul`:
-   ```bash
-   RETRO_DIR="/path/to/RetroRewind6"
-   mkdir -p PulsarPacks/completed/RetroRewind/RetroRewind6/Binaries
-   cp "$RETRO_DIR/Binaries/Code.pul" PulsarPacks/completed/RetroRewind/RetroRewind6/Binaries/Code.pul
-   ```
-
-2. **Retro-WFC Payload Setup (for Online Multiplayer)**:
-   Online play in Retro Rewind requires the shared Retro-WFC payload. Download and validate it:
-   ```bash
-   mkdir -p build/retro-wfc/binary
-   curl -fsSL --retry 3 "https://rwfc.net/api/wfc/payload?g=RMCPD00" \
-     -o build/retro-wfc/binary/payload.RMCPD00.bin
-
-   # Validate payload signature and integrity
-   translator validate-retro-wfc-payload --directory build/retro-wfc
-   ```
-
-3. Run Retro Rewind translation:
-   ```bash
-   mkdir -p build/mods/retro_rewind_full_cpp
-
-   translator translate-mod \
-     --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml \
-     --profile retro-rewind \
-     --base-manifest build/base/mkwii_base_manifest.json \
-     --base-translation-output-metadata generated/base_translation_output.json \
-     --code-pul "$RETRO_DIR/Binaries/Code.pul" \
-     --mod-root "$RETRO_DIR" \
-     --mod-name "Retro Rewind" \
-     --region P \
-     --out build/mods/retro_rewind_full_cpp \
-     --prefer-cached-inputs \
-     --emit-cpp \
-     --threads $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu) \
-     --retro-wfc-payload build/retro-wfc/binary/payload.RMCPD00.bin
-   ```
-   > [!TIP]
-   > If you do not want online play or do not have an internet connection, replace `--retro-wfc-payload ...` with `--skip-retro-wfc`.
-
----
-
-### D. Generate Data Initialization and Build Shards
-
-First, generate the embedded game data initializer:
-```bash
-translator generate-data-init --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml
-```
-
-Next, generate the CMake build shards using **one** of the following options:
-
-#### Option 1: Base Game Only (WiiCompiled)
-```bash
-mkdir -p generated/build_shards
-translator emit-build-shards \
-  --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml \
-  --base-metadata generated/base_translation_output.json \
-  --base-functions-dir generated/functions \
-  --native-source-dir runtime/src \
-  --out generated/build_shards
-```
-
-#### Option 2: Base Game + Retro Rewind
-```bash
-mkdir -p generated/build_shards
-translator emit-build-shards \
-  --project projects/mkwii/recomp.yml \
-  --base-metadata generated/base_translation_output.json \
-  --base-functions-dir generated/functions \
-  --native-source-dir runtime/src \
-  --out generated/build_shards \
-  --resolved-profile build/mods/retro_rewind_full_cpp/resolved_dispatch_profile.json \
-  --retro-cpp-dir build/mods/retro_rewind_full_cpp/cpp
-```
-
----
-
-## 6. Step 4: Configure and Compile with CMake & Ninja
-
-Configure the native C++ build targeting Apple Silicon:
-
-```bash
-cmake -S runtime -B build-macos -G Ninja \
-  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-  -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang \
-  -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ \
-  -DAURORA_SDL3_PROVIDER=vendor
-```
-
-Compile the desired target:
-
-```bash
-# To build WiiCompiled only:
-cmake --build build-macos --target WiiCompiled --parallel $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
-
-# OR to build both WiiCompiled and Retro Rewind:
-cmake --build build-macos --target WiiCompiled RetroRewind --parallel $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
-```
-
-Once compilation completes, the executables are ready in your build directory:
-- `build-macos/WiiCompiled`
-- `build-macos/RetroRewind` (if built)
-
-During the build, CMake automatically copies the required runtime assets into `build-macos/`:
-- `build-macos/dsp_coef.bin`
-- `build-macos/initial_pipeline_cache.db`
-- `build-macos/wii_bootstrap/`
-
----
-
-## 7. Step 5: Running Executables from the Build Folder
-
-### Configure `Config.toml`
-The runtime reads configuration from `~/Library/Application Support/WiiCompiled/Config.toml`.
-
-Create the directory and configuration file:
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p "$HOME/Library/Application Support/WiiCompiled"
-```
-
-#### For Base Game Only (WiiCompiled):
-```toml
-# ~/Library/Application Support/WiiCompiled/Config.toml
-[video]
-widescreen = true
-resolution_multiplier = 1.0
-graphics_api = "metal"
-
-[paths]
-dvd_root = "/absolute/path/to/Wiicompiled/Assets/DATA"
-```
-
-#### For Base Game and Retro Rewind:
-```toml
-# ~/Library/Application Support/WiiCompiled/Config.toml
-[video]
-widescreen = true
-resolution_multiplier = 1.0
-graphics_api = "metal"
-
-[paths]
-dvd_root = "/absolute/path/to/Wiicompiled/Assets/DATA"
-retro_rewind_root = "/path/to/RetroRewind6"
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> Ensure `dvd_root` points to the directory containing `files` and `sys/fst.bin`.
-
-### Launching the Game
-Run the compiled binaries directly from your terminal or by double clicking:
-
-```bash
-# Run base WiiCompiled
-./build-macos/WiiCompiled
-
-# Run Retro Rewind
-./build-macos/RetroRewind
-```
-
-
-
-Press **F10** in-game at any time to open the configuration bar (controls, resolution, display settings, audio).
-
----
-
-## Quick Reference: Automated Helper Script
-
-The repository provides a script (`Launcher/local-build-macos.command`) that handles extraction, translation, and compilation in a single command.
-
-### Building Base Game Only:
-```bash
-Launcher/local-build-macos.command \
-  --profile base \
-  --output-dir build-macos/Products \
-  --game /path/to/RMCP01.iso \
-  --nodtool ./nodtool
-```
-
-### Building Both (with Online Retro-WFC Payload):
-```bash
-# 1. Download Retro-WFC payload into a staging directory:
-mkdir -p build/retro-wfc/binary
-curl -fsSL --retry 3 "https://rwfc.net/api/wfc/payload?g=RMCPD00" \
-  -o build/retro-wfc/binary/payload.RMCPD00.bin
-
-# 2. Run the automated build with the payload directory:
-Launcher/local-build-macos.command \
-  --profile both \
-  --output-dir build-macos/Products \
-  --base-output-dir build-macos/Products \
-  --game /path/to/RMCP01.iso \
-  --nodtool ./nodtool \
-  --retro-rewind-package-dir /path/to/RetroRewind6 \
-  --retro-wfc-offline-dir build/retro-wfc
-```
-
-### Building Both (Offline, Skipping Payload):
-```bash
-Launcher/local-build-macos.command \
-  --profile both \
-  --output-dir build-macos/Products \
-  --base-output-dir build-macos/Products \
-  --game /path/to/RMCP01.iso \
-  --nodtool ./nodtool \
-  --retro-rewind-package-dir /path/to/RetroRewind6 \
-  --skip-retro-wfc-payload
-```
-
-When finished, the compiled executables reside in `native-build-macos/` and the bundled `.app` packages are placed in `build-macos/Products/`.
