Even as of Metal 2.1, MSL still doesn't support arrays of buffers
directly. Therefore, we must manually expand them. In the prologue, we
define arrays holding the argument pointers; these arrays are what the
transpiled code ends up referencing. We might be able to do similar
things for textures and samplers prior to MSL 2.0.
Speaking of which, also enable texture arrays on iOS MSL 1.2.
This requires MSL 2.0+.
Also, force `ViewportIndex` and `Layer` to be defined as the correct
type, which is always `uint` in MSL.
Since Metal doesn't yet have geometry shaders, the vertex shader (or
tessellation evaluation shader == "post-tessellation vertex shader" in
Metal jargon) is the only kind of shader that can set this output. This
currently requires an extension to Vulkan, which causes validation of
the SPIR-V binaries for the test cases to fail. Therefore, the test
cases are marked "invalid", even though they're actually perfectly valid
SPIR-V--they just won't work without the
`SPV_EXT_shader_viewport_index_layer` extension.
In MSL, these only have an effect on fragment `[[stage_in]]` members.
They have no effect in vertex shaders. The Khronos front end doesn't
even emit the SPIR-V decorations for them.
Add CompilerMSL::Options::disable_rasterization input/output API flag.
Disable rasterization via API flag or when writing to textures.
Disable rasterization when shader declares no output.
Add test shaders for vertex no output and write texture forcing void output.
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.
Support MSL typedefs to declare 3-row row-major matrices as 3-column matrices.
Allow those matrices to be decorated as packed.
Support transposing those matrices when used.
Modify how member alignments are calculated.
Add bool members is_read and is_written to SPIRType::Image.
Output correct texture read/write access by marking whether textures
are read from and written to by the shader.
Override bitcast_glsl_op() to use Metal as_type<type> functions.
Add implementations of SPIR-V functions inverse(), degrees() & radians().
Map inverseSqrt() to rsqrt().
Map roundEven() to rint().
GLSL functions imageSize() and textureSize() map to equivalent
expression using MSL get_width() & get_height() functions.
Map several SPIR-V integer bitfield functions to MSL equivalents.
Map SPIR-V atomic functions to MSL equivalents.
Map texture packing and unpacking functions to MSL equivalents.
Refactor existing, and add new, image query functions.
Reorganize header lines into includes and pragmas.
Simplify type_to_glsl() logic.
Add MSL test case vert/functions.vert for added function implementations.
Add MSL test case comp/atomic.comp for added function implementations.
test_shaders.py use macOS compilation for MSL shader compilation validations.
CompilerMSL accesses options using same design pattern as CompilerGLSL and CompilerHLSL.
CompilerMSL support setting VA & rez binding specs via either constructor or compile() method overload.
CompilerMSL support single UBO packing and padding in single pass.
spriv_cross app (main.cpp) supports turning off UBO packing and padding via command line option.
Add MSL UBO alignment test shader.
In some cases, the compiler decided to emit continue block first,
which invalidated the expressions used by the condition.
Parameters to functions can be evaluated in any order which caused
"random" behavior.
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.
If we run on a system with Xcode installed to a default path, run Xcode
Metal shader compiler to validate the generated MSL shader.
This uncovers an issue in the existing MSL test - MSL backend currently
does not auto-assign attribute locations, which means that translating
GLSL shader without location layout produces an invalid MSL which
generates "error: 'attribute' index '0' is used more than once".
