According to the Data Rules section of 2.16.1. Universal Validation
Rules of the SPIR-V Spec:
Forward reference operands in an OpTypeStruct
* must be later declared with OpTypePointer
* the type pointed to must be an OpTypeStruct
* had an earlier OpTypeForwardPointer forward reference to the same <id>
These rules are under "Data Rules" in 2.16.1 (Universal Validation
Rules) part of the SPIR-V 1.1 Specification document:
* Scalar floating-point types can be parameterized only as 32 bit, plus
any additional sizes enabled by capabilities.
* Scalar integer types can be parameterized only as 32 bit, plus any
additional sizes enabled by capabilities.
* Vector types can only be parameterized with numerical types or the
OpTypeBool type.
* Matrix types can only be parameterized with floating-point types.
* Matrix types can only be parameterized as having only 2, 3, or 4
columns.
* Specialization constants (see Specialization) are limited to integers,
Booleans, floating-point numbers, and vectors of these.
Number of components in a vector can be 2 or 3 or 4. If Vector16
capability is used, 8 and 16 components are also allowed.
Also added unit tests for vector data rule.
* Allows OpTypeForwardPointer to reference IDs not yet declared in
the module
* Allows OpTypeStruct to reference IDs not yet declared in
the module
Possible Issue: OpTypeStruct should only allow forward references
if the ID is a pointer that is referenced by a forward pointer. Need
Type support in Validator which is currently a work in progress.
Every time an event happens in the library that the user should be
aware of, the callback will be invoked.
The existing diagnostic mechanism is hijacked internally by a
callback that creates an diagnostic object each time an event
happens.
Defer removal of a Phi's result id from the undefined-forward-reference
set until after you've scanned the arguments. The reordering is only
significant for Phi.
