When storing to local variable (eg. OpCopyLogical), the
default device address space used during casts is illegal.
Determine correct address space based on variable type.
It is allowed to redeclare descriptors with different types in Vulkan.
MSL in general does not allow this, but for raw buffers, we can cast the
reference type at the very least.
For typed resources we are kinda hosed. Without descriptor indexing's
PARTIALLY_BOUND_BIT, descriptors must be valid if they are statically
accessed, so it would not be valid to access differently typed aliases
unless that flag is used. There might be a way to reinterpret cast
descriptors, but that seems very sketchy.
Implements support for:
- Single discrete descriptor
- Single argument buffer descriptor
- Array of argument buffer descriptors
Other cases are unimplemented for now since they are extremely painful
to unroll.
- Add CompilerMSL::emit_binary_ptr_op() and to_ptr_expression()
to emit binary pointer op. Compare matrix addresses without automatic
transpose() conversion, to avoid error taking address of temporary copy.
- Add Compiler::add_active_interface_variable() to also track active
interface vars in the entry point for SPIR-V 1.4 and above.
- For OpPtrAccessChain that ends in array element, use Element
as offset to existing index, otherwise it will access into
array dimension that doesn't exist.
- Dereference pointer function call arguments. Ultimately, this
dereferencing is actually backwards, and in future, we should aim
to properly support passing pointer variables between functions,
but such a refactoring was beyond the scope here.
- Use [] to declare array of pointers, as array<T*> is not supported in MSL.
- Add unit test shaders.
Just like we try to fixup struct names for block types, inner structs
can be "anonymous" structs. HLSL codegen from DXC tends to emit this,
and emitting dummy struct names tends to break GL linkage on some
drivers.
Makes codegen from typical D3D emulation SPIR-V more readable.
Also makes cross compilation with NotEqual more sensible.
It's very rare to actually need the strict NaN-checks in practice.
Also, glslang now emits UnordNotEqual by default it seems, so give up
trying to assume OrdNotEqual. Harmonize for UnordNotEqual as the sane
default.
Need this to be context sensitive, since array of block-like struct is
template, but struct of block-like array is C-style.
Also, test a mix and match, so we have constant array of block-like
struct with array inside. :v
Subsequent stages can legally attempt to read from these variables,
which causes compilation failure.
Always make sure we emit user outputs in vertex shaders if they are
active in the entry point.
