MSL backend supports emitting custom name, and there's no reason for
HLSL to not support that as well, but we have to make it an option to
not break existing users.
- Assign ulongn physical type to buffer pointers in short arrays
when array stride is larger than pointer size.
- Support GL_EXT_buffer_reference_uvec2 casting
buffer reference pointers to and from uvec2 values.
- When packing structs, include structs inside physical buffers.
- Update mechanism for traversing pointer arrays when calculating type sizes.
- Added unit test shaders.
This commit modifies sprintf calls to fix the following compilation
errors using XCode 14.0 beta on MacOS:
> 'sprintf' is deprecated: This function is provided for compatibility
> reasons only. Due to security concerns inherent in the design of
> sprintf(3), it is highly recommended that you use snprintf(3) instead.
- Determine sizing and alignments of pointers to types as
distinct from the size and alignment of the types themselves.
- Declare all buffer pointers in the MSL device address space.
- Support struct pointer recursion, where structs can
contain pointers to themselves or to a parent struct.
- Add SPIRType::was_forward_referenced to track if a type was forward
referenced, to help emit MSL structs in the correct dependency order.
- Handle pointers to pointers that are not just arrays of arrays.
HLSL is very fussy about fallthrough in switch blocks, so promote
Unreachable blocks to breaks if they are inside a switch construct.
Some false positives are possible in weird multi-break scenarios, but
this is benign.
Speculate that we can modify the SSA value in-place. As long as it is
not used after the modify, this is fine.
Also need to make sure we don't attempt to RMW something that is
impossible to modify.
GLSL and RelaxedPrecision are quite different in what they affect.
RelaxedPrecision affects operations, while this is merely implied in
GLSL based on inputs.
This leads to situations where we have to promote mediump inputs to
highp, and the simplest approach is to force highp temporaries for
inputs which are consumed in a highp context. For completeness, we also
demote RelaxedPrecision inputs to mediump variables.
PHI is handled by copying the PHI into a temporary.
We have to be very careful with hoisted temporaries, since the child
temporary will not be analyzed up-front. We inherit the hoisted-ness
state and emit the hoisted child temporary as necessary. When faking the
temporaries with OpCopyObject, we make sure to block any variable
hoisting.
Hoisting children of PHI variables is fine, since PHIs are not hoisted with
the same framework as other temporaries.
