Make the display handle the cache, because we only need one.
We store the cache in
$CACHE_DIR/gtk-4.0/vulkan-pipeline-cache/$UUID.$VERSION
so we regenerate caches for each different device (different UUID) and
each different driver version.
We also keep track of the etag of the cache file, so if 2 different
applications update the cache, we can detect that.
Vulkan allows merging caches, so the 2nd app reloads the new cache file
and merges it into its cache before saving.
It turns out variable length is only supported for the last binding in
a set, not for every binding.
So we need to create one set for each of our arrays.
[ VUID-VkDescriptorSetLayoutBindingFlagsCreateInfo-pBindingFlags-03004 ] Object 0: handle = 0x33a9f10, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_DEVICE; | MessageID = 0xd3f353a | vkCreateDescriptorSetLayout(): pBindings[0] has VK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_VARIABLE_DESCRIPTOR_COUNT_BIT but 0 is the largest value of all the bindings. The Vulkan spec states: If an element of pBindingFlags includes VK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_VARIABLE_DESCRIPTOR_COUNT_BIT, then all other elements of VkDescriptorSetLayoutCreateInfo::pBindings must have a smaller value of binding (https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#VUID-VkDescriptorSetLayoutBindingFlagsCreateInfo-pBindingFlags-03004)
Somebody (me) had flipped the 2 flags in commit ba28971a18:
[ VUID-vkCmdCopyBufferToImage-srcBuffer-00174 ] Object 0: handle = 0x3cfaac0, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_COMMAND_BUFFER; Object 1: handle = 0x430000000043, type = VK_OBJECT_TYPE_BUFFER; | MessageID = 0xe1b276a1 | Invalid usage flag for VkBuffer 0x430000000043[] used by vkCmdCopyBufferToImage. In this case, VkBuffer should have VK_BUFFER_USAGE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT set during creation. The Vulkan spec states: srcBuffer must have been created with VK_BUFFER_USAGE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT usage flag (https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/html/vkspec.html#VUID-vkCmdCopyBufferToImage-srcBuffer-00174)
If a node has a higher depth, pick the RGBA format that has that depth
as the texture format we're renderig to with render_texture().
Support for adapting the swapchain is not part of this.
When a GdkMemoryFormat isn't supported, pick close formats that have a
higher chance of being supported.
Make sure this works recursively and the whole loop always ends up at
R8G8B8A8_UNORM because that one is mandatory.
Roughly, follow these rules:
1. Drop the unpremultiplied
2. Expand channels to include all of RGBA
3. pick swizzle that is RGBA
4. pick next largest depth
5. pick R8G8B8A8_UNORM
This way, we unify the code paths for memory access to textures.
We also technically gain the ability to modify images, though I have no
use case for this.
That way, the offscreen can create images of different types.
Its not used in this commit, but will come in handy when we want to
support high bit depth.
Pretty much copy what GL does and just use the default display to create
GPU-related resources without the need for a display.
This also adds gdk_display_create_vulkan_context() but I've
kept it private because the Vulkan API is generally considered in flux,
in particular with our pending attempts to redo how renderers work.
Fixes a bug introduced in d1135f9e3c.
Luckily the buffer was large enough that all my testing didn't catch it
because it took a few minutes to overflow.
Now that we don't use the old environment variables anymore to force
staging buffer/image uploads, we don't need them.
However, we do autodetect the fast path for avoiding a staging buffer
now, and we might want to be able to turn that off for testing.
So add GSK_DEBUG=staging that does exactly that.
This is unused now that all the code uses map/unmap.
The only thing that map/unmap doesn't do that the old code did, was use
a staging image instead as alternative to a staging buffer for image
uploads.
However, that code is not necessary for anything, so I'm sure we can do
without.
If the memory heap that the GPU uses allows CPU access
(which is the case on basically every integrated GPU, including phones),
we can avoid a staging buffer and write directly into the image memory.
Check for this case and do that automatically.
Unfortunately we need to change the image format we use from
VK_IMAGE_TILING_OPTIMAL to VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR, I haven't found a way
around that yet.
Use the new map/unmap image upload method for Cairo node drawing:
1. map() the memory
2. create an image surface or that memory
3. draw to that image surface
4. success
There's no longer a need for Cairo to allocate image memory.
As an alternative to gsk_vulkan_image_new_from_data() that
takes a given data and creates an image from it, add a 3 step process:
gsk_vulkan_image_new_for_upload()
gsk_vulkan_image_map_memory()
/* put data into memory */
gsk_vulkan_image_unmap_memory()
The benefit of this approach is that it potentially avoids a copy;
instead of creating a buffer to pass and writing the data into it before
then memcpy()ing it into the image, the data can be written straight
into image memory.
So far, only the staging buffer upload is implemented.
There are also no users, those come in the next commit(s).
When nodes are added, nothing was warning us that we need to bump
N_RENDER_NODES.
Make sure that that's no longer necessary by refactoring the code to
remove the define.
This is more expensive, but it finds more cases, and in particular it
catches corner cases like empty nodes or fully clipped nodes that might
otherwise make the kernel throw signals in our direction.
If one of the descriptor sets doesn't have any items, don't include it
in the sets passed to vkUpdateDescriptorSets().
This has no effect right now, because we either have both images and
samplers or neither, but it will become relevant once we also support
buffers.
Sometimes the GPU is still busy when the next frame starts (like when
no-vsync benchmarking), so we need to keep all those resources alone and
create new ones.
That's what the render object is for, so we just create another one.
However, when we create too many, we'll starve the CPU. So we'll limit
it. Currently, that limit is at 4, but I've never reached it (I've also
not starved the GPU yet), so that number may want to be set lower/higher
in the future.
Note that this is different from the number of outstanding buffers, as
those are not busy on the GPU but on the compositor, and as such a
buffer may have not finished rendering but have been returend from the
compositor (very busy GPU) or have finished rendering but not been
returned from the compositor (very idle GPU).
The idea here is that we can do more complex combinations and use that
to support texture-scale nodes or use fancy texture formats (suc as
YUV).
I'm not sure this is actually necessary, but for now it gives more
flexibility.
For blend and crossfade nodes, one of the children may exist and
influence the rendering, while the other does not.
Previously, we would skip the node, which would cause the required
rendering to not happen. We now send a valid texture id for the
invalid offscreen, thereby actually rendering the required parts.
Fixes the blend-invisible-child compare test
Current state for compare tests:
Ok: 397
Expected Fail: 0
Fail: 26
Unexpected Pass: 0
Skipped: 2
Timeout: 0
Instead of having a descriptor set per operation, we just have one
descriptor set and bind all our images into it.
Then the shaders get to use an index into the large texture array
instead.
Getting this to work - because it's a Vulkan extension that needs to be
manually enabled, even though it's officially part of Vulkan 1.2 - is
insane.
