Instead of having a function with lots of arguments in
GskVulkanRender that we call from GskVulkanRenderPass which
then just calls back into GskVulkanRenderPass, just create
the new render pass object locally, and an api to add it
to the list that GskVulkanRender keeps. This makes it
a lot easier to preserve all the relevant parameters from
the parent render pass.
Whenever we need a node as a texture, we now start a new render
pass that renders the node into a new intermediate texture, and
set up a semaphore to make the current render pass wait for it.
As part of this reorganization, much of the setup and drawing
code moved from gskvulkanrender.c to gskvulkanrenderpass.c.
This is another example for a 2-texture shader.
So far, only separable blend modes are implemented.
The implementation is not optimized, with an
if-else cascade in the shader.
This commit takes several steps towards rendering text
like we want to.
The creation of the cairo surface and texture is moved
to the backend (in GskVulkanRenderer). We add a mask
shader that is used in the next text pipeline to use
the texture as a mask, like cairo_mask_surface does.
There is a separate color text pipeline that uses the
already existing blend shaders to use the texture as
a source, like cairo_paint does.
The text node api is simplified to have just a single
offset, which determines the left end of the text baseline,
like all our other text drawing APIs.
Note: We interpolate premultiplied colors as per the CSS spec. This i
different from Cairo, which interpolates unpremultiplied.
So in testcases with translucent gradients, it's actually Cairo that is
wrong.
First, we collect all the info about descriptor sets into a hash table,
then we use its size to determine the amount of sets and allocate those
before we finally go ahead and use the hash table's contents to
initialize the descriptor sets.
And then we're ready to render.
And move the actual rendering code there.
A RenderPass is a collection of operations on the same target that
get executed one after another. It roughly targets VkRenderPass or
rather the subpasses of a VkRenderPass.
For now, only the infrastructure is there. No real stuff is happening.
This is refactoring work.
GskVulkanRender is supposed to be the global object for a render
operation, ie GskVulkanRenderer.render() will create this object for
what it does.
The object will be split into stages that perform the operations
necessary to create a drawing.
