Making it easier to work with shaders https://git.yummers.dev/slang.git/atom?h=master 2021-01-15T20:10:06+00:00 2021-01-15T20:10:06+00:00 Tim Foley tfoleyNV@users.noreply.github.com 2021-01-15T20:10:06+00:00 urn:sha1:2a5d5b32348c33aac7ca62aa9a4c2bb7cff8e08a This change converts a large number of our existing tests to use the `ShaderObject` support that was added to the `gfx` layer. In many cases, tests were just updated to pass `-shaderobj` and the result Just Worked. In other cases, a `name` attribute had to be added to one or more `TEST_INPUT` lines. For tests that did not work with shader objects "out of the box," I spent a little bit of time trying to get them work, but fell back to letting those tests run in the older mode. Future changes to the infrastructure will be needed to get those additional tests working in the new path. Along with the changes to test files, the following implementation changes were made to get additional tests working: * Because the shader object mode uses explicit register bindings (from reflection), the hacky logic that was offseting `u` registers for D3D12 based on the number of render targets gets disabled (by another hack). * The "flat" reflection information coming from Slang was not correctly reporting "binding ranges" for things that consumed only uniform data (which would be everything on CUDA/CPU), so it was refactored to properly include binding ranges for anything where the type of the field/variable implied a binding range should be created (even if the `LayoutResourceKind` was `::Uniform`). * A few fixes were made to the CUDA implementation of `Renderer`, in order to get additional tests up and running. Most of these changes had to do with texture bindings, which hadn't really been tested previously. In addition, a few changes were made that were attempts at getting more tests working, but didn't actually help. These could be dropped if requested: * As a quality-of-life feature (not being used) the `object` style of `TEST_INPUT` line is upgraded to support inferring the type to use from the type of the input being set. * Any `object` shader input lines get ignored in non-shader-object mode. 2020-12-03T16:23:05+00:00 Yong He yonghe@outlook.com 2020-12-03T16:23:05+00:00 urn:sha1:44c0a56974b664e50b2cb8cb6f10740b19c4e02f * Add shader object parameter binding to renderer_test. * remove multiple-definitions.hlsl * Fix cuda implementation.

Information on what shader inputs exist 2. Information on what values/objects to bind into those shader inputs Under the first category of information, there exists supporting for attaching a `dxbinding(...)` annotation to a `TEST_INPUT` which seemingly indicates what HLSL `register` the input uses. There is a similar `glbinding(...)` annotation, used for OpenGL and Vulkan. It turns out that these annotations were, in practice, completely ignored and had no bearing on how `render-test` allocates or bindings graphics API objects. There was some amount of code attempting to validate that explicit registers/bindings were being set appropriately, but the actual values were being ignored. The visible consequence of the `dxbinding` and `glbinding` annotations being ignored is issue #1036: the order of `TEST_INPUT` lines was *de facto* determining the registers/bindings that were being used by `render-test`. This change simply removes the placebo features and strips things down to what is implemented in practice: the `TEST_INPUT` lines do not need target-API-specific binding/register numbers, because their order in the file implicitly defines them. I added logic to the parsing of `TEST_INPUT` lines to make sure I got an error message on any leftover annotations, and went ahead and systematicaly deleted all of the placebo annotations from our test cases. If we decide to make `TEST_INPUT` lines *not* depend on order of declaration in the future, we can build it up as a new and better considered feature. The main alternative I considered was to keep the annotations in place, and change `render-test` and the `gfx` abstraction layer to properly respect them, but that path actually creates much more opportunity for breakage (since every single test case would suddenly be specifying its root signature / pipeline layout via a different path using data that has never been tested). The approach in this change has the benefit of giving me high confidence that all the test cases continue to work just as they had before. 2018-02-03T15:30:54+00:00 Tim Foley tfoleyNV@users.noreply.github.com 2018-02-03T15:30:54+00:00 urn:sha1:662f43fff6721c6cd013a8f1b2639c2e29fe6be3 The basic change is simple: remove support for all code generation paths other than the IR. There is a lot of vestigial code left, but the main logic in `ast-legalize.*` is gone. Doing this breaks a *lot* of tests, for various reasons: - We can no longer guarantee exactly matching DXBC or SPIR-V output after things pass through out IR - Many builtins don't have matching versions defined for GLSL output via IR (even when they had versions defined via the earlier approach that worked with the AST) - A lot of code creates intermediate values of opaque types in the IR, which turn into opaque-type temporaries that aren't allowed (this breaks many GLSL tests, but also some HLSL) I implemented some small fixes for issues that I could get working in the time I had, but most of the above are larger than made sense to fix in this commit. For now I'm disabling the tests that cause problems, but we will need to make a concerted effort to get things working on this new substrate if we are going to make good on our goals. 2017-11-08T00:09:40+00:00 Yong He yonghe@outlook.com 2017-11-08T00:09:40+00:00 urn:sha1:6e591ada0eb652c320bba4bd8a46cd579946df01 * improve diagnostic messages and prevent fatal errors from crashing the compiler. * fix top level exception catching. * spelling fix * change wording of invalidSwizzleExpr diagnostic * add speculative GenericsApp expr parsing * add new test case of cascading generics call. * Fixing bugs in compiling cascaded generic function calls. Add implementation of DeclaredSubTypeWitness::SubstituteImpl() This is not needed by the type checker, but needed by IR specialization. When input source contains cascading generic function call, the arguments to `specialize` instruction is currently represented as a substitution. The arg values of this subsittution can be a `DeclaredSubTypeWitness` when a generic function uses one of its generic parameter to specialize another generic function. When the top level generics function is being specialized, this substitution argument, which is a `DeclaredSubTypeWitness`, needs to be substituted with the witness that used to specialize the top level function in the specialized specialize instruction as well. * add a test case for cascading generic function call. * parser bug fix * fixes #255 * add test case for issue #255 * Generate missing `specialize` instruction when calling a generic method from an interface constraint. When calling a generic method via an interface, we should be generating the following ir: ... f = lookup_interface_method(...) f_s = specailize(f, declRef) ... This commit fixes this `emitFuncRef` function to emit the needed `specialize` instruction. * fixes #260 This fix follows the second apporach in the disucssion. It generated mangled name for specialized functions by appending new substitution type names to the original mangled name. * Disabling removing and re-inserting specailized functions in getSpecalizeFunc() I am not sure why it is needed, it seems HLSL and GLSL backends are generating forward declarations anyways, so the order of functions in IRModule shouldn't matter. * cleanup and complete test cases. * fix warnings
