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.
The standard `matrix` type in MSL lacked a constructor in the
`threadgroup` AS. This means that it was impossible to declare a
`threadgroup` variable that contains a matrix. This appears to have been
an oversight that was corrected in macOS 13/Xcode 14 beta 4. This
workaround continues to be required, however, for older systems.
To avoid changing interfaces unnecessarily (which shouldn't be a problem
regardless because the old and new types take up the same amount of
storage), only do this for structs if the struct is positively
identified as being used for workgroup storage.
I'm entirely aware this is inconsistent with the way packed matrices are
handled. One of them should be changed to match the other. Not sure
which one.
Fixes 23 CTS tests under `dEQP-VK.memory_model.shared`.
Since `bool` is a logical type, it cannot be used in uniform or storage
buffers. Therefore, replacing it in structures should not change the
shader interface.
We leave it alone for builtins. (FIXME: Should we also leave it for
I/O varyings?)
Fixes 24 CTS tests under `dEQP-VK.memory_model.shared`.
- 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.
- 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.
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.
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.
Promote to short instead and do simple casts on load/store instead.
Not 100% complete fix since structs can contain booleans, but this is
getting into pretty ridiculously complicated territory.
Emit synthetic functions before function constants.
Support use of spvQuantizeToF16() in function constants for numerical
behavior consistency with the op code.
Ensure subnormal results from OpQuantizeToF16 are flushed to zero per SPIR-V spec.
Adjust SPIRV-Cross unit test reference shaders to accommodate these changes.
Any MSL reference shader that inclues a synthetic function is affected,
since the location it is emitted has changed.
Fix reversed coordinates: `y` should be used to calculate the row
address. Align row address to the row stride.
I've made the row alignment a function constant; this makes it possible
to override it at pipeline compile time.
Honestly, I don't know how this worked at all for Epic. It definitely
didn't work in the CTS prior to this.
On MSL, the compiler refuses to allow access chains into a normal vector type.
What happens in practice instead is a read-modify-write where a vector type is
loaded, modified and written back.
The workaround is to convert a vector into a pointer-to-scalar before
the access chain continues to add the scalar index.
DX may emit ArrayStride and MatrixStride of 16, but the size of the
object does not align with that and expect to pack other members inside
its last member.
The workaround is to emit array size/col/row one less than we expect and
rely on padding to carve out a "dead zone" for the last member.
Limit inline blocks to one per descriptor set.
This should avoid the need for complicated code to calculate the
argument buffer ID stride of an inline uniform block. If there's demand
for more inline blocks, we can revisit this.
Here, the inline uniform block is explicit: we instantiate the buffer
block itself in the argument buffer, instead of a pointer to the buffer.
I just hope this will work with the `MTLArgumentDescriptor` API...
Note that Metal recursively assigns individual members of embedded
structs IDs. This means for automatic assignment that we have to
calculate the binding stride for a given buffer block. For MoltenVK,
we'll simply increment the ID by the size of the inline uniform block.
Then the later IDs will never conflict with the inline uniform block. We
can get away with this because Metal doesn't require that IDs be
contiguous, only monotonically increasing.
This CL updates the test runner to only run spirv-opt if the generated
SPIR-V is valid. If validation is skipped it's possible to hit aborts
and other memory errors in the optimizer as it assumes the SPIR-V is
valid.
This avoids a lot of huge code changes.
Arrays generally cannot be copied in and out of buffers, at least no
compiler frontend seems to do it.
Also avoids a lot of issues surrounding packed vectors and matrices.
Rolled the hashes used for glslang, SPIRV-Tools, and SPIRV-Headers to
HEAD, which includes the update to 1.5.
Added passing '--amb' to glslang, so I didn't have to explicitly set
bindings in a large number of test shaders that currently don't, and
now glslang considers them invalid.
Marked all shaders that no longer pass spirv-val as .invalid.
Vulkan has two types of buffer descriptors,
`VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_BUFFER_DYNAMIC` and
`VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_BUFFER_DYNAMIC`, which allow the client to
offset the buffers by an amount given when the descriptor set is bound
to a pipeline. Metal provides no direct support for this when the buffer
in question is in an argument buffer, so once again we're on our own.
These offsets cannot be stored or associated in any way with the
argument buffer itself, because they are set at bind time. Different
pipelines may have different offsets set. Therefore, we must use a
separate buffer, not in any argument buffer, to hold these offsets. Then
the shader must manually offset the buffer pointer.
This change fully supports arrays, including arrays of arrays, even
though Vulkan forbids them. It does not, however, support runtime
arrays. Perhaps later.
Writable textures cannot use argument buffers on iOS. They must be
passed as arguments directly to the shader function. Since we won't know
if a given storage image will have the `NonWritable` decoration at the
time we encode the argument buffer, we must therefore pass all storage
images as discrete arguments. Previously, we were throwing an error if
we encountered an argument buffer with a writable texture in it on iOS.
