[Mac] Final Fantasy XIII hangs at "Linking PPU Modules"

[Behodar]

Quick summary

Final Fantasy XIII, BCAS25005.

As the game starts up it shows 119 modules, then when it's linked them all it changes to "Progress: module 119 of 120" and hangs (the RPCS3 UI still responds, but the linking never completes and the game doesn't launch).

There was some discussion of this in #14909 and it doesn't seem to affect Windows, but fails in this fashion on multiple Macs. I don't know whether it's functional under Linux.

Details

I'm not really sure what else to say that's not already in the logs. As you will see there are a large number of "U SPU TODO" entries, and then "S SPU: SPU Runtime: Built 8813 functions." is the final message shown.

Can you give this another try? I used to get this before using the x86 build, but now it boots for me using the Arm build.

So this has either been fixed or it's an x86-specific issue.

(It softlocks after the first enemy, but that is likely a different issue...)

https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/16112 I think the issue has split into 2 different issues. But x86_64 has been reintroduced again. With different build versions creating the issues.

Same behaviour under build 16962 on Intel. I don't have an Arm machine to test on.
