Instead of recreating the same renderpass object in every frame and for
every offscreen, just reuse it.
Technically, we can save this per-renderer or even per-display (it
should really be cached by VkDevice), but we have no infrastructure for
that.
The function name gsk_vulkan_render_get_pipeline() had been used for
GskVulkanPipeline. Since those are gone now, we can use that name for
VkPipelines.
Renderpasses get recreated every frame, but we keep render objects
around. So if we keep the vertex buffer in the render object, we can
also keep it around and just reuse it.
Also, we only need one buffer for all the render passes, which is
another bonus.
The initial buffer size is chosen at 128kB. Maximized Nautilus,
gnome-text-editor with an open file and widget-factory take ~100kB when
doing a full redraw. Other apps are between 30-50kB usually.
So I chose a value that is not too big, but catches ~90% of cases.
Interning strings is slow, especially if we can instead do direct
pointer compares.
Also refactor the pipeline lookup code a bit to make use of the
refactored code.
Set it after creating all the ops and then use it for iterating.
Note that we cannot set it while creating the ops because the array may
be realloc()ed into a different memory region which would invalidate all
the pointers.
It currently has no use, but that will come later.
Also put the typedefs into headers in gsk/vulkan, they have nthing to do
outside that directory.
Remove the function to add a node from both the GskVulkanRender and the
GskVulkanRenderPass.
That means they are both now meant to draw exactly one node.
This is a rudimentary - but working - port.
Glyph uploads are still using the old machinery, a bunch of functions
still exist that probably aren't necessary anymore and each glyph emits
its own node.
This will need to be improved in further commits.
This shader is an updated version of the mask shader, but I want to use
the mask name for the mask node and that's a different functionality.
Also, add an operation for it and partially implement the mask node
using it, so we can test that this shader works.
Replacing the shader used for text rendering is the next step.
The benefit here is that we can now properly cross-fade when one of
start/end is fully clipped out by just replacing it with an opacity op
for the other.
This was not possible with the old way we did things.
Instead of creating a pipeline GObject, just ask for the VkPipeline.
And instead of having the Op handle it, just let the renderpass look
up/create the relevant pipeline while creating commands so that it can
insert vkCmdBindPipeline calls as-needed.
This reverts most of commit f420c143e0
again because it turns out GPUs like combined images and samplers.
But: The one thing we don't revert is allowing the C code to select any
combination of sampler and image:
gsk_vulkan_render_get_image_descriptor() now takes a 2nd argument
specifying the sampler.
This allows the same flexibility as before, we just combine things
early.
This change was inspired by
https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/vulkan-dos-donts/
Instead of creating the op manually, just pass in the renderpass and
have the op created from there.
This way ops aren't really initialized anymore, they are more appended
to the queue, so instead of foo_op_init() we can just call the function
foo_op().
The new code always uses an offscreen, even for children that are
exactly fitting texture nodes.
I would have had to write more code and didn't consider it worth it,
especially because it would have required complicating the
get_as_image() function.
This was the last node using the texture pipeline.
Allocate the memory up front instead of passing the Op into it.
This way, we can split ops into their own source file and use
init/finish style to use them.
GskVulkanOp is meant to be a proper abstraction of operations
the Vulkan renderer will be doing.
For now it's an atrocious clunky piece of junk wedged into the
renderpass codebase.
It's so temporary that I didn't even adjust indentation of the code.
Intersection with a roudned clip takes too long.
Instead, rename the function to may_intersect() to be clear about what
it does and then just intersect with the regular rectangle.
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.
