CPPreference.com has this description of digits10:
“The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::digits10 is the number of
base-10 digits that can be represented by the type T without change,
that is, any number with this many significant decimal digits can be
converted to a value of type T and back to decimal form, without
change due to rounding or overflow.”
This means that any number with this many digits can be represented
accurately in the corresponding type. A change in any digit in a
number after that may or may not cause it a different bitwise
representation. Therefore this isn’t necessarily enough precision to
accurately represent the value in text. Instead we need max_digits10
which has the following description:
“The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::max_digits10 is the number of
base-10 digits that are necessary to uniquely represent all distinct
values of the type T, such as necessary for
serialization/deserialization to text.”
The patch includes a test case in hex_float_test which tries to do a
round-robin conversion of a number that requires more than 6 decimal
places to be accurately represented. This would fail without the
patch.
Sadly this also breaks a bunch of other tests. Some of the tests in
hex_float_test use ldexp and then compare it with a value which is not
the same as the one returned by ldexp but instead is the value rounded
to 6 decimals. Others use values that are not evenly representable as
a binary floating fraction but then happened to generate the same
value when rounded to 6 decimals. Where the actual value didn’t seem
to matter these have been changed with different values that can be
represented as a binary fraction.
Adds a scalar replacement pass. The pass considers all function scope
variables of composite type. If there are accesses to individual
elements (and it is legal) the pass replaces the variable with a
variable for each composite element and updates all the uses.
Added the pass to -O
Added NumUses and NumUsers to DefUseManager
Added some helper methods for the inst to block mapping in context
Added some helper methods for specific constant types
No longer generate duplicate pointer types.
* Now searches for an existing pointer of the appropriate type instead
of failing validation
* Fixed spec constant extracts
* Addressed changes for review
* Changed RunSinglePassAndMatch to be able to run validation
* current users do not enable it
Added handling of acceptable decorations.
* Decorations are also transfered where appropriate
Refactored extension checking into FeatureManager
* Context now owns a feature manager
* consciously NOT an analysis
* added some test
* fixed some minor issues related to decorates
* added some decorate related tests for scalar replacement
Add Effcee as an optional dependency for use in tests. In future it will
be a required dependency.
Effcee is a stateful pattern matcher that has much of the functionality
of LLVM's FileCheck, except in library form. Effcee makes it much easier
to write tests for optimization passes.
Demonstrate its use in a test for the strength-reduction pass.
Update README.md with example commands of how to get sources.
Update Appveyor and Travis-CI build rules.
Also: Include test libraries if not SPIRV_SKIP_TESTS
- SPIRV_SKIP_TESTS is implied by SPIRV_SKIP_EXECUTABLES
Create a new optimization pass, strength reduction, which will replace
integer multiplication by a constant power of 2 with an equivalent bit
shift. More changes could be added later.
- Does not duplicate constants
- Adds vector |Concat| utility function to a common test header.
