This command allows the caller to set the base value of
`BuiltInWorkgroupId`, and thus of `BuiltInGlobalInvocationId`. Metal
provides no direct support for this... but it does provide a builtin,
`[[grid_origin]]`, normally used to pass the base values for the stage
input region, which we will now abuse to pass the dispatch base and
avoid burning a buffer binding.
`[[grid_origin]]`, as part of Metal's support for compute stage input,
requires MSL 1.2. For 1.0 and 1.1, we're forced to provide a buffer.
(Curiously, this builtin was undocumented until the MSL 2.2 release. Go
figure.)
This is not necessary, as we must emit an invalidating store before we
potentially consume an invalid expression. In fact, we're a bit
conservative here in this case for example:
int tmp = variable;
if (...)
{
variable = 10;
}
else
{
// Consuming tmp here is fine, but it was
// invalidated while emitting other branch.
// Technically, we need to study if there is an invalidating store
// in the CFG between the loading block and this block, and the other
// branch will not be a part of that analysis.
int tmp2 = tmp * tmp;
}
Fixing this case means complex CFG traversal *everywhere*, and it feels like overkill.
Fixing this exposed a bug with access chains, so fix a bug where expression dependencies were not
inherited properly in access chains. Access chains are now considered forwarded if there
is at least one dependency which is also forwarded.
This subtle bug removed any expression validation for trivially swizzled
variables. Make usage suppression a more explicit concept rather than
just hacking off forwarded_temporaries.
There is some fallout here with loop generation since our expression
invalidation is currently a bit too naive to handle loops properly.
The forwarding bug masked this problem until now.
If part of the loop condition is also used in the body, we end up
reading an invalid expression, which in turn forces a temporary to be
generated in the condition block, not good. We'll need to be smarter
here ...
If this is computed *before* a `demote`, but used *after*, forwarding it
will produce the wrong value. This does make for uglier shaders, but
it's necessary right now to ensure correctness.
I needed to use an assembly shader to produce the test for this.
`spirv-opt` is not smart enough (or too smart?) to eliminate the
variable that would be used in GLSL to express this.
This extension provides a new operation which causes a fragment to be
discarded without terminating the fragment shader invocation. The
invocation for the discarded fragment becomes a helper invocation, so
that derivatives will remain defined. The old `HelperInvocation` builtin
becomes undefined when this occurs, so a second new instruction queries
the current helper invocation status.
This is only fully supported for GLSL. HLSL doesn't support the
`IsHelperInvocation` operation and MSL doesn't support the
`DemoteToHelperInvocation` op.
Fixes#1052.
Make sure to test everything with scalar as well to catch any weird edge
cases.
Not all opcodes are covered here, just the arithmetic ones. FP64 packing
is also ignored.
This provides a few functions normally available in OpenCL to the SPIR-V
shader environment. These functions happen to be available in Metal as
well.
No GLSL, unfortunately. Intel has yet to publish a
`GL_INTEL_shader_integer_functions2` spec.
Fix fallout from changes.
There's a bug in glslang that prevents `float16_t`, `[u]int16_t`, and
`[u]int8_t` constants from adding the corresponding SPIR-V capabilities.
SPIRV-Tools, meanwhile, tightened validation so that these constants are
only valid if the corresponding `Float16`, `Int16`, and `Int8` caps are
on. This affects the `16bit-constants.frag` test for GLSL and MSL.
