In HLSL, there are three (TODO: ??) dimensions of clip and cull
distance values:
* The semantic's value N, ala SV_ClipDistanceN.
* The array demension, if the value is an array.
* The vector element, if the value is a vector or array of vectors.
In SPIR-V, clip and cull distance are arrays of scalar floats, always.
This PR currently ignores the semantic N axis, and handles the other
two axes by sequentially copying each vector element of each array member
into sequential floats in the output array.
Fixes: #946
This fixes:
1. A compilation error when assigning scalars to matricies
2. A semantic error in matrix construction from scalars. This was
initializing the diagonal, where HLSL semantics require the scalar be
replicated to every matrix element.
3. Functions accepting mats can be called with scalars, which will
be shape-converted to the matrix type. This was previously failing
to match the function signature.
NOTE: this does not yet handle complex scalars (a function call,
say) used to construct matricies. That'll be added when the
node replicator service is available. For now, there's an assert.
There's one new test (hlsl.scalar2matrix.frag). An existing test
lsl.type.half.frag changes, because of (2) above, and a negative
test error message changes due to (3) above.
Fixes#923.
For "s.m = t", a sampler member assigned a sampler, make t an alias
for s.m, and when s.m is flattened, it will flatten to the alias t.
Normally, assignments to samplers are disallowed.
This changes no functional code. There was a bit of a testing hole
in that textures templatized on sub-vec4 types were not being exercised
with any intrinsics. This adds some basic sanity coverage of that case.
Name mangling did not account for the vector size in the template type of a texture.
This adds that. The mangle is as it ever was for the vec4 case, which leaves
all GLSL behavior and most HLSL behavior uneffected. For vec1-3 the size is added
to the mangle.
Current limitation: textures cannot presently be templatized on structured types,
so this works only for vectors of basic types.
Fixes#895.
This modifies function parameter passing to pass the counter
buffer associated with a struct buffer to a function as a
hidden parameter. Similarly function declarations will have
hidden parameters added to accept the associated counter buffers.
There is a limitation: if a SB type may or may not have an associated
counter, passing it as a function parameter will assume that it does, and
the counter will appear in the linkage whether or not there is a counter
method used on the object.
This implements mytex.mips[mip][coord] for texture types. There is
some error testing, but not comprehensive. The constructs can be
nested, e.g in this case the inner .mips is parsed before the completion
of the outer [][] operator.
tx.mips[tx.mips[a][b].x][c]
Using GS methods such as Append() in non-GS stages should be ignored, but was
creating errors due to the lack of a stream output symbol for the non-GS stage.
This adds infrastructure suitable for any front end to create SPIR-V loop
control flags. The only current front end doing so is HLSL.
[unroll] turns into spv::LoopControlUnrollMask
[loop] turns into spv::LoopControlDontUnrollMask
no specification means spv::LoopControlMaskNone
Byte address buffers were failing to detect that they were byte address
buffers when used as fn parameters.
Note: this detection is a little awkward, and could be simplified if
it was easy to obtain the declared builtin type for an object.
Some texture and SB operations can take non-integer indexes, which should be
cast to integers before use if they are not already. This adds makeIntegerIndex()
for the purpose. Int types are left alone.
(This was done before for operator[], but needs to apply to some other things
too, hence its extraction into common function now)
This is WIP, heavy on the IP part. There's not yet enough to use in real workloads.
Currently present:
* Creation of separate counter buffers for structured buffer types needing them.
* IncrementCounter / DecrementCounter methods
* Postprocess to remove unused counter buffers from linkage
* Associated counter buffers are given @count suffix (invalid as a user identifier)
Not yet present:
* reflection queries to obtain bindings for counter buffers
* Append/Consume buffers
* Ability to use SB references passed as fn parameters
HLSL requires vec2 tessellation coordinate declarations in some cases
(e.g, isoline topology), where SPIR-V requires the TessCoord qualified
builtin to be a vec3 in all cases. This alters the IO form of the
variable to be a vec3, which will be copied to the shader's declared
type if needed. This is not a validation; the shader type must be correct.
Previously, patch constant functions only accepted OutputPatch. This
adds InputPatch support, via a pseudo-builtin variable type, so that
the patch can be tracked clear through from the qualifier.
In the hull shader, the PCF output does not participate in an argument list,
so has no defined ordering. It is always put at the end of the linkage. That
means the DS input reading PCF data must be be at the end of the DS linkage
as well, no matter where it may appear in the argument list. This change
makes sure that happens.
The detection is by looking for arguments that contain tessellation factor
builtins, even as a struct member. The whole struct is taken as the PCF output
if any members are so qualified.
The SPIR-V generator had assumed tessellation modes such as
primitive type and vertex order would only appear in tess eval
(domain) shaders. SPIR-V allows either, and HLSL allows and
possibly requires them to be in the hull shader.
This change:
1. Passes them through for either tessellation stage, and,
2. Does not set up defaults in the domain stage for HLSl compilation,
to avoid conflicting definitions.
Unknown how extensive the semantics need to be yet. Need real
feedback from workloads. This is just done as part of unifying it
with the class/struct namespaces and grammar productions.
This PR emulates per control point inputs to patch constant functions.
Without either an extension to look across SIMD lanes or a dedicated
stage, the emulation must use separate invocations of the wrapped
entry point to obtain the per control point values. This is provided
since shaders are wanting this functionality now, but such an extension
is not yet available.
Entry point arguments qualified as an invocation ID are replaced by the
current control point number when calling the wrapped entry point. There
is no particular optimization for the case of the entry point not having
such an input but the PCF still accepting ctrl pt frequency data. It'll
work, but anyway makes no so much sense.
The wrapped entry point must return the per control point data by value.
At this time it is not supported as an output parameter.
