Account for a non-zero base instance when calculating the view index and
the "real" instance index. Before, it was likely broken with a non-zero
base instance, since the calculated instance index could be less than
the base instance.
The only piece added by this extension is the `DeviceIndex` builtin,
which tells the shader which device in a grouped logical device it is
running on.
Metal's pipeline state objects are owned by the `MTLDevice` that created
them. Since Metal doesn't support logical grouping of devices the way
Vulkan does, we'll thus have to create a pipeline state for each device
in a grouped logical device. The upcoming peer group support in Metal 3
will not change this. For this reason, for Metal, the device index is
supplied as a constant at pipeline compile time.
There's an interaction between `VK_KHR_device_group` and
`VK_KHR_multiview` in the
`VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_VIEW_INDEX_FROM_DEVICE_INDEX_BIT`, which defines the
view index to be the same as the device index. The new
`view_index_from_device_index` MSL option supports this functionality.
This is needed to support `VK_KHR_multiview`, which is in turn needed
for Vulkan 1.1 support. Unfortunately, Metal provides no native support
for this, and Apple is once again less than forthcoming, so we have to
implement it all ourselves.
Tessellation and geometry shaders are deliberately unsupported for now.
The problem is that the current implementation encodes the `ViewIndex`
as part of the `InstanceIndex`, which in the SPIR-V environment at least
only exists in the vertex shader. So we need to work out a way to pass
the view index along to the later stages.
This implementation runs vertex shaders for all views up to the highest
bit set in the view mask, even those whose bits are clear. The fragments
for the inactive views are then discarded. Avoiding this is difficult:
calculating the view indices becomes far more complicated if we can only
run for those views which are set in the mask.
In GLSL, 8-bit types require GL_EXT_shader_8bit_storage. 16-bit types
can use either GL_AMD_gpu_shader_int16/GL_AMD_gpu_shader_half_float or
GL_EXT_shader_16bit_storage.
Add to suite of MSL tests and references any existing GLSL tests
that successfully convert GLSL->SPIRV->MSL and compile as MSL.
test_shaders_helper() ignores hidden files that start with '.',
to avoid accidentally finding hidden OSX files such as .DS_Store.
Use xcrun to compile MSL shaders instead of hard-coded path to Metal compiler.
Wrap calls to xcrun in exception handling to ignore if Xcode not installed.
For MSL tests, move call to validate_shader_msl() to after call to
regression_check() to allow a converted MSL shader to be saved for
manual review even if it doesn't successfully compile as MSL.
