Change aux buffer to swizzle buffer.
There is no good reason to expand the aux buffer, so name it
appropriately.
Make the code cleaner by emitting a straight pointer to uint rather than
a dummy struct which only contains a single unsized array member anyways.
This will also end up being very similar to how we implement swizzle
buffers for argument buffers.
Do not use implied binding if it overflows int32_t.
We made the mistake of registering a dependency on the atomic variable
even if the atomic result was forced to a temporary. There is no need to
register reads from atomic variables like this as we always force atomic
results to a temporary and argument read/writes do not need to be
tracked.
If we generate an access chain in a loop body, and it is consumed in the
loop continue block, we have a problem because we cannot emit a
temporary here holding the access chain reference. Force a complex loop
body to workaround this exceptionally rare case.
We cannot deduce if OpLoad needs ArrayCopy templates early since it's
heavily context dependent, and we might only know on 3rd iteration of
the compile loop.
-1 (0xffffffff) literal means the component should be undefined.
Since we cannot express undefined directly, just use a 0 literal in the
appropriate type.
This is necessary to deal with indirect draws, where the draw parameters
are given in a buffer instead of passed by the CPU. For normal draws,
the draw parameters are set with Metal's `setVertexBytes:` method.
This undoes the change to add the vertex count to the aux buffer,
rendering that entire discussion largely moot. Oh well. It was a
discussion that needed to happen anyway.
In the past, SPIRV-Cross threw an error in this case because it couldn't
work out which swizzle from the auxiliary buffer needs to be passed.
Now, we pass the swizzle around with the texture object, like a combined
image-sampler and its associated sampler.
MSL does not support value semantics for arrays (sigh), so we need to
force constant references and deal with copies if we have a different
address space than what we end up guessing.
This allows shaders to declare and use pointer-type variables. Pointers
may be loaded and stored, be the result of an `OpSelect`, be passed to
and returned from functions, and even be passed as inputs to the `OpPhi`
instruction. All types of pointers may be used as variable pointers.
Variable pointers to storage buffers and workgroup memory may even be
loaded from and stored to, as though they were ordinary variables. In
addition, this enables using an interior pointer to an array as though
it were an array pointer itself using the `OpPtrAccessChain`
instruction.
This is a rather large and involved change, mostly because this is
somewhat complicated with a lot of moving parts. It's a wonder
SPIRV-Cross's output is largely unchanged. Indeed, many of these changes
are to accomplish exactly that! Perhaps the largest source of changes
was the violation of the assumption that, when emitting types, the
pointer type didn't matter.
One of the test cases added by the change doesn't optimize very well;
the output of `spirv-opt` here is invalid SPIR-V. I need to file a bug
with SPIRV-Tools about this.
I wanted to test that variable pointers to images worked too, but I
couldn't figure out how to propagate the access qualifier properly--in
MSL, it's part of the type, so getting this right is important. I've
punted on that for now.
It'll be useful to have an "auxiliary buffer" for other builtins--e.g.
`DrawIndex` (which should be easier to implement now), or `ViewIndex`
when someone gets around to implementing multiview.
Pass this buffer to leaf functions as well.
Test that we handle this for integer textures as well.
It's intended to be used with MoltenVK to support arbitrary
`VkComponentMapping` settings. The idea is that MoltenVK will pass a
buffer (which it set to some buffer index that isn't being used)
containing packed versions of the `VkComponentMapping` struct, one for
each sampled image.
Yes, this is horribly ugly. It is unfortunately necessary. Much of the
ugliness is to support swizzling gather operations, where we need to
alter the component that the gather operates on--something complicated
by the `gather()` method requiring the passed-in component to be a
constant expression. It doesn't even support swizzling gathers on depth
textures, though I could add that if it turns out we need it.
Implement this by flattening outputs and unflattening inputs explicitly.
This allows us to pass down a single struct instead of dealing with the
insanity that would be passing down each flattened member separately.
Remove stage_uniforms_var_id.
Seems to be dead code. Naked uniforms do not exist in SPIR-V for Vulkan,
which this seems to have been intended for. It was also unused elsewhere.
Add CompilerMSL::Options::texture_width_max.
Emit and use spvTexelBufferCoord() function to convert 1D
texel buffer coordinates to 2D Metal texture coordinates.
Support flattening StorageOutput & StorageInput matrices and arrays.
No longer move matrix & array inputs to separate buffer.
Add separate SPIRFunction::fixup_statements_in & SPIRFunction::fixup_statements_out
instead of just SPIRFunction::fixup_statements.
Emit SPIRFunction::fixup_statements at beginning of functions.
CompilerMSL track vars_needing_early_declaration.
Pass global output variables as variables to functions that access them.
Sort input structs by location, same as output structs.
Emit struct declarations in order output, input, uniforms.
Regenerate reference shaders to new formats defined by above.
Certain patterns with OpVectorShuffle (and probably others) will cascade
to so large, that they can cause OOM. After we have observed
force_recompile, don't spend unnecessary memory emitting code which will
never be used.
