dm/third_party: third-party code

This is code written by others, shipped with the repository so there is nothing to download. Each component keeps its original license, and the license file sits in its own directory.

Directory What it is Version and changes Where it is used License file
flip/ NVIDIA FLIP, an image difference metric that models human viewing. FLIP.h plus the source of the command-line tool in tool/ Not recorded in the directory Verification: the image quality measurements in dm/verify/gfxq/; build flip first with make -C dm/third_party/flip flip/LICENSE (BSD 3-Clause)
libvpx/ The VP9 decoder from libvpx: the 71 source files a VP9-decoder-only build compiles, their headers, and the generated configuration in config/ v1.17.0 (upstream commit 6df3ec3), unmodified Host: decodes the games' VP9 movies (dm/host/hle_movie.c). dm/host/Makefile builds it into gen/vpx/libvpx.a; the iOS build compiles the same files libvpx/LICENSE (BSD 3-Clause), with the patent grant in libvpx/PATENTS
stb_vorbis/ Ogg Vorbis decoder, a single file stb_vorbis.c 1.22 (upstream commit 1ee679c), unmodified Host: decodes the Vorbis sound tracks of the games' WebM movies (dm/host/hle_movie.c, which includes the file with its push-data API only) stb_vorbis/LICENSE (MIT or public domain, your choice; the same text ends stb_vorbis.c)
ryujinx/ The shader translation library from Ryujinx, three projects: Ryujinx.Graphics.Shader, Ryujinx.Common, Spv.Generator Ryujinx 1.3.2, with the local changes listed in ryujinx/README.md Referenced by the shader translation tool dm/gfx/tools/dmsh_xlate, which translates the original Switch shaders to SPIR-V ryujinx/LICENSE.txt (MIT); ryujinx/src/Spv.Generator/LICENSE is that subproject's own license text
vulkan-headers/ The Vulkan C headers: vulkan_core.h, vk_platform.h, vulkan_vi.h and the vk_video/ headers they include Vulkan-Headers 1.4.363, unmodified Host: the Vulkan layer on Metal (dm/gfx/vk/hle_vk.m) that runs Hades vulkan-headers/LICENSE.md (Apache-2.0 or MIT, your choice)

A few more notes:

  • flip/tool/ also carries three single-header libraries used by the FLIP command-line tool: stb_image.h (2.23), stb_image_write.h (1.13) and tinyexr.h. Their license notices are in the files themselves.
  • libvpx/README.md, stb_vorbis/README.md, ryujinx/README.md and vulkan-headers/README.md record where each came from and what it is used for.
  • Four pieces of third-party code live outside this directory: dm/gfx/nvn/include/nvn.h (MIT, author named in the file header), the layout size algorithm in dm/gfx/nvn/nvn_tex.c, ported from deko3d (zlib license), and two adapted from MacNativeGames (MIT, license text in macnativegames/LICENSE): in dm/gfx/nvn/nvn_mtl.m the GPU widening of 8-bit indices (wide_*) and the in-pass clear triangles (clear_color_tri / clear_ds_tri), from its widen_u8_gpu and clear_quad / clear_ds_quad, and the Tears of the Kingdom visibility-counter lowering in dm/gfx/tools/dmsh_xlate/Program.cs (VertexCounterLowering).
