* Split front- and back-ends (#846)Tim Foley2019-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Split front- and back-ends This change is a major refactor of several of the types that provide the behind-the-scenes implementation of the public C API. The goal of this refactor is primarily to allow for future API services that let the user operate both the front- and back-ends of the compiler in a more complex fashion. For example, as user should be able to compile a bunch of source code into modules, look up types, functions, etc. in those modules, specialize generic types/functions to the types they've looked up, and then finally request target code to be gernerated for specialized entry points. The back-end code generation they trigger should re-use the front-end compilation work (parsing, semantic checking, IR generation) that was already performed. The most visible change is that `CompileRequest` has been split up into several smaller types that take responsibility for parts of what it did: * The `Linkage` type owns the storage for `import`ed modules, and well as the `TargetRequest`s that represent code-generation targets. The intention is that an application could use a single `Linkage` for the duration of its runtime (so long as it was okay with the memory usage), so that each `import`ed module only gets loaded once. For now, this type needs to manage the search paths, file system, and source manager, because of its responsibility for loading files. * A `FrontEndCompileRequest` owns the stuff related to parsing, semantic checking, and initial IR generation. This most notably includes the `TranslationUnitRequest`s and the `FrontEndEntryPointRequest`s (which used to be just `EntryPointRequest`s). It's main job is to produce AST and IR modules for each translation unit, and to find and validate the entry points. The front-end request does *not* interact with generic arguments for global or entry-point generic parameters. * The main output of both `import` operations and front-end translation units is the `Module` type, which is just a simple container for both the AST module (to service the reflection/layout APIs, and also for semantic checking of code that `import`s the module) and the IR module (for linking and code generation). This type captures the commonalities between the old `LoadedModule` (which is now just an alias for `Module`) and `TranslationUnitRequest` (which now owns a `Module`). * The secondary output of front-end compilation is a `Program`, which comprises a list of referenced `Module`s and validated `EntryPoint`s that will be used together. Layout and code generation both need a `Program` to tell them what modules and entry points will be used together (we don't want to just code-gen everythin that has ever been loaded into the linakge). The `Program`s created by the front-end do not include generic arguments, so they may provide incomplete layout information and/or be unsuitable for code generation. * A `BackEndCompileRequest` owns stuff related to turning a `Program` into output kernels for the targets of a `Linkage`. Most of the data it owns beyond the `Program` to be compiled is minor, so this is a good candidate for demotion from a heap-allocated object to just a `struct` of options that gets passed around. * The `CompileRequestBase` type is an attempt to wrap up the common functionality of both front-end and back-end compile requests. Most of it is just exposing the availability of a linkage and `DiagnosticSink`, so this type is a good candidate for subsequent removal. The main interesting thing it has is the flags related to dumping and validation of IR, so there is probably a good refactoring still to be made around deciding how options should be handled going forward. * Behind the scenes, the `Program` type is set up to handle some level of on-line compilation and layout work. The `Program` knows the `Linkage` it belongs to, and allows for a `TargetProgram` to be looked up based on a specific `TargetRequest`. A `TargetProgram` then allows layout information and compiled kernel code to be asked for on-demand, in order to support eventual "live" compilation scenarios. * The `EndToEndCompileRequest` type is a composition/coordination type that replaces the old `CompileRequest` in a way that uses the services of the various other types. It owns a few pieces of state that only make sense in the context of an end-to-end compile (e.g., there is really no way to "pass through" code when the front- and back-ends are run separately) or a command-line compile (everything to do with specifying output paths for files is really just for the benefit of `slangc`, and might even be moved there over time). * One important detail is that the `EndToEndCompilRequest` owns all of the string-based generic arguments for both global and entry-point generic parameters. The logic in `check.cpp` for dealing with those arguments has been heavily refactored to separate out the parsings steps that are specific to end-to-end compilation with string-based type arguments, and the semantic checking steps that result in a specialized `Program` (which can be exposed through new APIs that aren't tied to end-to-end compilation). It is perhaps not surprising that this change had a lot of consequences, so I'll briefly run over some of the main categories of changes required: * I changed the way that global generic arguments are passed via API (use `spSetGlobalGenericArgs` instead of the generic arguments for `spAddEntryPointEx`, which are not just for entry-point generics), which has been a change that we've needed for a long time. This is technically a breaking API change, although we should have very few client applications that care about it. * A bunch of places that used to take "big" objects like `CompileRequest` now just take the sub-pieces they care about (e.g., a function might have only needed a `Linkage` and a `DiagnosticSink`). This makes many subroutines or "context" struct types more generally useful, at the cost of taking more parameters. * In a few cases the conceptually clean separation of the layers breaks down (often for edge-case or compatibility features), and so we may pass along additional objects that are allowed to be null, but are used when present. A big example of this is how the back-end code generation routines accept an `EndToEndCompileRequest` that is optional, and only used to check whether "pass through" compilation is needed. We should probably look into cleaning this kind of logic up over time so that we don't need to violate the apparent separation of phases of compilation. * In cases where separation of layers was being broken for the sake of GLSL features, I went ahead and ripped them out, since all of that should be dead code anyway. * In many cases I increased the encapsulation of data in the core types to help track down use sites and make sure they are following invariants better. * In cases where code was doing, e.g., `context->shared->compileRequest->session->getThing()` I have tried to introduce convenience routines so that the usage site is just `context->getThing()` to improve encapsulation and allow changes to be made more easily going forward. * The `noteInternalErrorLoc` functionality was moved off of the compile request and into `DiagnosticSink`, since that is the one type you can rely on having around when you want to note an internal error. We may consider going forward if (and how) it should reset the counter used for noting locations on internal errors. * A few APIs now take `DiagnosticSink*` arguments where they didn't before, and as a result some public APIs need to create `DiagnosticSink`s to pass in, before going ahead and ignoring the messages. In the future there should be variations of these APIs that accept an `ISlangBlob**` parameter for the output. * fixup: missing include for compilers with accurate template checking (non-VS) * fixup: review feedback

* Add basic support for "Dear IMGUI" (#625)Tim Foley2018-08-06
| | | | | | | | | | | This isn't being made visible just yet, but it will allow us to have a simple UI for loading models into the model-viewer example. In order to support rendering with IMGUI I had to add the following to the `Renderer` layer: * viewports * scissor rects * blend support These are really only fully implemented for D3D11, but adding them to the other back-ends should be a reasonably small task.
* Major overhaul of Renderer abstraction, to support a new example (#624)Tim Foley2018-08-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original goal here was to bring up a second example program: `model-viewer`. While the existing `hello-world` example is enough to get somebody up to speed with the basics of the Slang API (as a drop-in replacement for `D3DCompile` or similar), it doesn't really show any of the big-picture stuff that Slang is meant to enable. There wasn't any use of D3D12/Vulkan descriptor tables/sets, and there wasn't any use of interfaces, generics, or `ParameterBlock`s in the shader code. The `model-viewer` example addresses these issues. Its shader code involves generics, interfaces, and multiple `ParameterBlock`s, and the host-side code demonstrates a few key things for working with Slang: * There is an application-level abstraction for parameter blocks, that combines the graphics-API descriptor set object with Slang type information * There is a shader cache layer used to look up an appropriate variant of a rendering effect by using parameter block types to "plug in" global type variables * There is a clear separation between the phases of compilation: a first phase that does semantic checking and enables reflection-based allocation of graphics API objects, followed by one or more code generation passes for specialized kernels. This example is certainly not perfect, and it will need to be revamped more going forward. In particular: * The output picture is ugly as sin. We need a plan for how to get this to load better content, perhaps even popping up an error message to note that the required input data isn't present in the basic repository. * The shader code is too simplistic. There isn't any real material variety, and the `IMaterial` abstraction is completely wrong. * The use of parameter blocks is facile because there are no resource parameters right now. Fixing that will likely expose issues around interfacing with Slang's reflection API. * The whole example exposes the issue that Slang's current APIs aren't really designed for the benefit of two-phase compilation (since our many client application has been stuck on one-phase compilation). * Global type parameters are actually a Bad Idea that we only did for compatibility with existing codebases. We should not be showing them off in an example of the Right Way to use Slang, but the language support for type parameters on entry points is still not complete. Of course, the majority of the changes here are *not* inside the example applications, and instead involve a major overhaul of the `Renderer` abstraction that is used for both tests and examples. The main thrust of the change is to make the abstraction layer be closer to the D3D12/Vulkan model than to a D3D11-style model. This is important for the `model-viewer` example, since it aspires to show how Slang can be incorporated into a renderer that targets a modern API. The most important bit is actually the use of descriptor sets and "pipeline layouts" a la Vulkan, since without these Slang's `ParameterBlock` abstraction won't make a lot of sense. Implementation of the abstraction for the various APIs has very much been on an as-needed basis. The current implementation is just enough for the two examples to work, plus enough to get all the tests to pass in both debug and release builds on Windows. A big missing feature in the API abstraction right now is memory lifetime management. The code had been trending toward something D3D11-like where a constant buffer could be mapped per-frame with the implementation doing behind-the-scenes allocation for targets like D3D12/Vulkan. I'd like to shift more toward a model of just exposing "transient" allocations that are only valid for one frame, because these are more representation of how an efficient renderer for next-generation APIs will work. That transition isn't actually complete, though, so there are problems with the existing examples where `hello-world` is actually scribbling into memory that the GPU might still be using, while `model-viewer` is doing full-on heavy-weight allocations on a per-frame basis with no real concern for the performance implications. All together, there are a lot of things here that need more work, but this branch has been way too long-lived already, and so I'd like to get this checked in as long as all the tests pass.
* more to fixing memory leaksYong He2018-02-19
| | | | | 1. reorder destruction order of several key classes to avoid using deleted IR objects when destroying Types 2. remove Session::canonicalTypes and make each Type own a RefPtr to the canonicalType, to allow types to be destroyed along with each IRModule it belongs to.
* First attempt at a Linux build (#193)Tim Foley2017-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * First attempt at a Linux build - Fix up places where C++ idioms were written assuming lenient behavior of Microsoft's compiler - Add a few more alternatives for platform-specific behavior where Windows was the only platform accounted for. - Add a basic Makefile that can at least invoke our build, even if it isn't going good dependency tracking, etc. - Build `libslang.so` and `slangc` that depends on it, using a relative `RPATH` to make the binary portable (I hope) - Add an initial `.travis.yml` to see if we can trigger their build process. * Fixup: const bug in `List::Sort` I'm not clear why this gets picked up by the gcc *and* clang that Travis uses, but not the (newer) gcc I'm using on Ubuntu here, but I'm hoping it is just some missing `const` qualifiers. * Fixup: reorder specialization of "class info" Clang complains about things being specialized after being instantiated (implicilty), and I hope it is just the fact that I generate the class info for the roots of the hierarchy after the other cases. We'll see. * Fixup: add `platform.cpp` to unified/lumped build * Fixup: Windows uses `FreeLibrary` and not `UnloadLibrary` * Fixup: fix Windows project file to include new source file This obviously points to the fact that we are going to need to be generating these files sooner or later.
* Fix some issues around cloned modifiers.Tim Foley2017-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The root of the problem here is that: - We do a shallow copy of modifiers when "lowering" declarations/statements, by just copying over the head pointer of the linked list of modifiers - During lowering we sometimes add additional modifiers (only used during lowering), and these can thus accidentally get added to the end of the list of modifiers for the original declaration (rather than just the lowered decl) - If the same declaration is used by multiple entry points to be output, then a modifier added by the first entry point (which could reference entry-point-specific storage) will be earlier in the modifier list and might be picked up by a later entry point, so that we dereference already released memory The simple fix for right now is the use the support for a "shared" modifier node to ensure that each lowered declaration/statement gets a unique modifier list. A better long-term fix is: 1. Don't use modifiers to store general side-band information, and instead use proper lookup tables that own their contents. 2. Don't use a linked list to store modifiers (this was done to make splicing easy, but now we have a whole class of bugs related to bad splices), and be willing to clone them as needed.
* Try to improve handling of failures during compilationTim Foley2017-07-19
| | | | | | | The change is mostly about trying to make sure the compiler "fails safe" when it encounters an internal assumption that isn't met. Most internal errors will now throw exceptions (yes, exceptions are evil, but this will work for now), and these get caught in `spCompile` so that they don't propagate to the user (they just see a message that compilation aborted due to an internal error). Subsequent changes are going to need to work on diagnosing as many of these situations as possible, so that users can at least know what construct in their code was unexpected or unhandled by the compiler.
* Pick layout rules based on target languge, not source.Tim Foley2017-07-09
| | | | The tricky bit here was that the `reflection-json` output format isn't really a code generation target like the others, and we need to be able to have multiple "targets" active to make sense of it. This needs cleaning-up.
* Fix many warnings-as-errors issues.Tim Foley2017-07-06
| | | | | The code should now compile cleanly with warnings as errors for VS2015 with `W3`. Most of the changes had to do with propagating a real pointer-sized integer type through code that had been using `int`.
* Overhaul `RefPtr` and `String`Tim Foley2017-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - `RefPtr` no longer tries to have distinct cases for interal-vs-external reference counts. Instead we always require an internal reference count. - Types the used `RefPtr` but weren't `RefObject` were made to inherit `RefObject` - The `ReferenceCounted` base class was removed, so that only `RefObject` remains - Implicit conversion from `RefPtr<T>` to `T*` added - This created some complicates for other types that relied on implicit conversions, so this isn't a net cleanup right now - The main type that got messed up by the above was `String`, which previously held a `RefPtr<char, ...>`. This change thus *also* includes a major overhaul of `String`: - `String` now holds all its data via indirection, using a `StringRepresentation` that is a `RefObject`. This object holds a length, capacity, and directly stores the character data in its allocation. This means that `sizeof(String)==sizeof(void*)` - It is now possible to directly mutate a `String` by appending to its representation (we just need to ensure it has a reference count of `1`, possibly by cloning it). This means that `StringBuilder` is now basically just an idomatic use of `String` - A couple operations that just return sub-ranges of a `String` now return `StringSlice` to avoid allocation when it isn't needed. This required more work. - Indices into strings changed from `int` to `UInt` (which is pointer-sized). This had a bunch of follow-on changes because the value `-1` sometimes needs to be special-cased in code that uses indices. Further cleanups are probably needed here.
