The magical term to know about (because the GLSL compiler or the
validation layers sure as hell don't) is:
"dynamically uniform expression"
because if you don't have that when indexing a texture or buffer array,
you need to add nonuniformEXT() around the index variable.
Fixes the close icon on AMD having glitches of the previous icon visible
in some pixels.
When a GdkMemoryFormat is not supported natively and there's
postprocessing required, add a way to mark a VulkanImage as such via the
new postprocess flags.
Also allow texting such iamges only with new_for_upload() and detect
when that is the case and then run a postprocessing step that converts
that image to a suitable format.
This is done with a new "convert" shader/op.
This now supports all formats natively, no conversions happen on the CPU
anymore (unless the GPU is old).
Instead, build-depnd on glslc to build them.
glslc is available in all important distros for a while:
Fedora >= 28
Ubuntu >= 23.04
Debian >= 12
Arch
Opensuse >= 15.2
msys2
are the ones I checked.
So we can depend on it and avoid having to deal with keeping spirv files
up-to-date in all commits.
It's also 700kB of data, and not updating it helps.
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.
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/
The match operator was added in Python 3.10, which is a bit too new for
some downstreams.
While at it, let's fix the flake8 errors and warnings.
Fixes: #5934
If we build our own targets, we need to include those.
This is only relevant when adding new shaders because meson will
complain that the (unused) sources don't exist as it tries to include
those.
And that will make the build.ninja file not be generated which would
have build those shaders and would have allowed to copy them into the
sources.
Note that this makes builds with glslc not care about all the shader
files being included with the sources, but we have CI to check that.
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)
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.
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.
The border and color shaders - the ones that do AA - now multiply their
coordinates by the scale factor, which gives them better rounding
capabilities.
This in particular improves the case where they are used in fractional
scaling situations, where the scale is defined at the root element.
This introduces the rect object and adds a rect_distance() and
rect_coverage() function.
_distance() returns the signed distance tp the rectangle.
_coverage() returns the coverage of a pixel centered at that position.
Note that the pixel size is computed using dFdx/dFdy.
Move the resources of each renderer to its subdirectory.
We've previously done that for the ngl renderer, but it
is better to be consistent and do it for all the renderers.
