2022-04-11Refactor: eliminate BackEndCompileRequest (#2178)Theresa Foley
An earlier refactoring pass over the compiler codebase split the type that had been called `CompileRequest` into three distinct pieces: * `FrontEndCompileRequest` which was supposed to own state and options related to running the compiler front end and producing IR + reflection (e.g., what translation units and source files/strings are included). * `BackEndCompileRequest` which was supposed to own state and options related to running the compiler back end to translate the IR for a `ComponentType` (program) into output code. (Note that the `BackEndCompileRequest` was conceived of as orthogonal to the `TargetRequest`s, which store per-target and target-specific options.) * `EndToEndCompileRequest` which was an umbrella object that owns separate front-end and back-end requests, plus any state that is only relevant when doing a true end-to-end compile (such as the kinds of compiles initiated with `slangc`). As originally conceived, the only state that this type was supposed to own was stuff related to "pass-through" compilation, as well as state related to writing of generated code to output files. That refactoring work was very useful at the time, because it allowed us to "scrub" the back end compilation steps to remove all dependencies on front-end and AST state (this was important for our goals of enabling linking and codegen from serialized Slang IR). At this point, however, it is clear that the hierarchy that was built up serves very little purpose: * The `BackEndCompileRequest` type is only used in two places: * As part of an `EndToEndCompileRequest`, where the settings on the `BackEndCompileRequest` can be configured, but only through the `EndToEndCompileRequest` * As part of on-demand code generation through the `IComponentType` APIs. In this case, the settings stored on the `BackEndCompileRequest` are not accessible to the application at all, and will always use their default values, so that instantiating a "request" object doesn't really make any sense. * The `FrontEndCompileRequest` type has a similar situation: * Front-end compilation as part of an `EndToEndCompileRequest` supports user configuration of `FrontEndCompileRequest` settings, but only through the `EndToEndCompileRequest` * Front-end compilation triggered by an `import` or a `loadModule()` call does not support user configuration of settings at all. It will always derive all relevant settings from thsoe on the session ("linkage"). In addition, subsequent changes have been made to the compiler that show a bit of a "code smell" and/or forward-looking worries for this decomposition: * In some cases we've had to add the same setting to multiple types in the breakdown (front-end, back-end, end-to-end, linkage, target, etc.) which makes it harder for us to validate that all the possible mixtures of state work correctly. * Related to the above, in some cases we have manual logic that copies state from one of the objects in the breakdown to another, in order to ensure that the user's intention is actually followed. * As a forward-looking concern, it seems that developers have sometimes added new configuration options and state to places that don't really make sense according to the rationale of the original decomposition (e.g., we probably don't want to have a lot of state that is only available via end-to-end requests, given that the API structure is meant to push users *away* from end-to-end compiles). As a result of all of the above, I've been planning a large refactor with the following big-picture goals: * Eliminate `BackEndCompileRequest` * Move all relevant state/options from the back-end request to the end-to-end request, since that is the only place they could be set anyway. * Introduce a transient "context" type to be used for the duration of code generation that serves the main functions that back-end requests really served in the codebase * Make `EndToEndCompileRequest` be a subclass of `FrontEndCompileRequest` * Consider addding a transient "context" type for front-end compiles that can be used in `import`-like cases rather than needing a full front-end request object. If this works, then eliminate `FrontEndCompileRequest` and be back to world with just a single `CompileRequest` type * Move *all* compiler configuration options to a distinct type (named something like `CompilerConfig` or `CompilerOptions` or whatever) which stores setting as key-value pairs, and has a notion of "inheritance" such that one configuration can extend or build on top of another. Make all the relevant types use this catch-all structure instead of redundantly storing flags in many places. This change deals with the first of those bullets: removeal of `BackEndCompileRequest`. The addition of the `CodeGenContext` type is perhaps an unncessary additional step, but making that change helps clean up a bunch of the code related to per-target code generation, so I think it is the right choice.

2021-03-26Append proper suffixes to 16-bit literals for GLSL (#1767)Tim Foley
* Append proper suffixes to 16-bit literals for GLSL The GLSL output path wasn't putting suffixes on literals of 16-bit types, and that was leading to compilation errors in downstream `glslang`. This change adds the suffixes defined by `GL_EXT_shader_explicit_arithmetic_types`. This change also wraps up 8-bit literals so that they are emitted as, e.g., `int8_t(1)` instead of just `1`, to make sure we don't have implicit conversions in the output GLSL that weren't implicit in the Slang IR. We similarly wrap floating-point special values like infinities in their desired types when the type is `float` (e.g., `double(1.0 / 0.0)` for a double-precision infinity). Note: Standad IEEE 754 half-precision doesn't provide an encoding for infinite or not-a-number values, so it might be considered an error if we emit `half(1.0 / 0.0)` but there really isn't a significantly better alternative for us to emit. * fixup
2021-03-16Fix the "acceleration structure in compute" bug for GL_NV_ray_tracing too ↵Tim Foley
(#1759) A recent change broke code that uses `RayTracingAccelerationStructure` in non-RT shader stages for Vulkan/GLSL when also *not* doing any ray tracing in the shader code. A recent fix patched that up for code using `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` and/or `GL_EXT_ray_query`, but that fix didn't apply on the path that uses `GL_NV_ray_tracing` via an opt-in. This change fixes that gap and checks in a test for it.
2021-03-15Fix handling of RT accelerations structures for non-RT stages (#1753)Tim Foley
* Fix handling of RT accelerations structures for non-RT stages The recent change that added support for the `GL_EXT_ray_query` extension made is so that a shader that declares a `RaytracingAccelerationStructure` as an input to a non-RT shader stage but then never *uses* it wouldn't enable any RT extension, resulting in a compilation failure in glslang. This change reverts that behavior so that such shaders enable `GL_EXT_ray_tracing`, since that is the older of the two RT extensions that introduce `accelerationStructureEXT`. It is possible that we will need to revisit this decision based on which of the two extensions ends up being more broadly supported, but I think that right now it is fair to say that there exist drivers that support `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` but not `GL_EXT_ray_query`, so the former is the better default. * fixup: failing test
2021-03-05Add Vulkan/SPIR-V support for TraceRayInline() (#1737)Tim Foley
For the most part, this translation is straightforward because the `GL_EXT_ray_query` extension is well aligned with the DXR 1.1 `RayQuery` feature. Many function map one-to-one from one extension to the other. A few notable details: * The equivalent of the `RayQuery<Flags>` type is non-generic in GLSL, and the GLSL path previously didn't have support for trying to look up an intrinsic type name on an IR type declaration, so that required some tweaks to the emit logic. * All the GLSL functions are free functions instead of member functions, but our IR doesn't recognize that distinction anyway * The main `TraceRayInline()` call is the one that took the most tweaking, just because it takes a `RayDesc` structure for D3D/HLSL but takes individual vector sand scalars for VK/GLSL. The approach here is a standard one for how we manage this stuff in the stdlib (and I wanted to avoid adding even more `$` magic for intrinsics). * For several other calls, the HLSL API had distinct `Candidate***()` and `Committed***()` calls that return information about a candidate hit vs. the one committed into the query. In contrast, the GLSL API uses a single call that takes an additional "must be compile-time constant" `bool` parameter to select between the two behaviors. This is even the case for one call that basically returns a value of a different `enum` type depending on the state of that `bool`. The D3D API model here seems almost strictly better and I have no idea why the GLSL extension was defined this way. * Because both the `GL_EXT_ray_query` and `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` extensions declare the `accelerationStructureEXT` type, we can no longer infer what extension is supposed to be used based only on the presene of such a type. The logic right now is a bit slippery, because in theory a program that declares an acceleration structure but never traces into it could end up getting a compilation error now. We will have to see if that corner case comes up in practice. :( The one big detail that is looming after doing this work is that both the HLSL and GLSL exposures of ray queries are extremely "slippery" about the actual identity of queries (e.g., when is one query a copy of another, vs. just being a new variable that references the existing query). Somehow queries get their identity from the original declaration, and as such our "default constructor" approach to them seems semanticay correct, but the whole thing is kind of slippery at a foundational level and I don't know how to fix it with the API as defined. Oh well; just something to keep an eye on. Co-authored-by: Yong He <yonghe@outlook.com>
2021-03-03Add GLSL/SPIR-V support got GetAttributeAtVertex (#1733)Tim Foley
This change allows varying fragment shader inputs to be declared in a way that allows the `GetAttributeAtVertex` operation to compile to valid code for both D3D and GLSL/SPIR-V/Vulkan. The key is that rather than just use ordinary `nointerpolation`-qualified inputs the code must declare these varying inputs with a new `pervertex` qualifier that marks them as *only* being usable with `GetAttributeAtVertex`. The `pervertex`-tagged inputs then translate to GLSL inputs using the `pervertexNV` qualifier Note that this change does *not* include any enforcement of the requirements around how these qualifiers are used (and the compiler doesn't have enforcement for the existing operations like `EvaluateAttributeAtCentroid`). The underlying problem is that the inerpolation-mode qualifiers and explicit interpolation functions in HLSL constitute a kind of rate-qualified type system, but without any systematic rules. It seems wasteful to encode a bunch of ad hoc rules for this stuff as special cases in the compiler when the clear right answer is to implement a systematic approach to rates.
2021-02-16Add an accessor for IRInst opcode (#1707)Tim Foley
* Add an accessor for IRInst opcode This main changing is renaming `IRInst::op` over to `IRInst::m_op` and then adds an accessor `IRInst::getOp()` to read it. The rest of the changes are just changing use sites to `getOp` (or to `m_op` in the limited cases where we write to it). This work is in anticipation of a future change that might need to store an extra bit in the same field as the opcode. It seemed better to do this massive refactoring as a separate PR. * fixup

2021-01-05Use "capability" system to select VKRT extension (#1647)Tim Foley
* Use "capability" system to select VKRT extension Slang currently supports translation of ray tracing shader code to Vulkan GLSL code that uses the `GL_NV_ray_tracing` extension. A multi-vendor equivalent of that extension has been released as `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` and we want Slang to support that extension as well. At the simplest, making the change from one extension to the other is just a matter of changing a few strings, since it does not appear that anything of significance was changed at the GLSL level (or even in SPIR-V). Where this gets trickier is when we have users who want us to support *both* extensions, and to be able to switch between them. The solution we've implemented here more or less amounts to: * If you don't tell the compiler which extension to use, it will default to `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` (the newer multi-vendor one). * If you explicitly want the older extension, you can opt into it using the `-profile` option or via a new API for explicitly adding capabilities to your target. Making that work required a few different kinds of changes: * The options parsing and public API needed ways to add optional capabilities to a target. * During GLSL code emit, we can check the capabilities that were added to the target to see if the `GL_NV_ray_tracing` extension was explicitly enabled and, if not, default to using the `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` names for things. This step is needed because some of the modifiers/attributes involved in the extension have to be handled explicitly in the code generator rather than implicitly as part of mapping intrinsic functions. * We add two different translations to the relevant operatiosn in the stdlib, one marked with each of the extensions. If profile/capability-based overload resolution can be relied on to pick the right one, this should Just Work. * Next, a bunch of work had to go into making capability-based overloading Just Work for the purposes of this change. There's been a nearly complete reworking of the implementation of `CapabilitySet` here to make it more suitable for our needs. * The tests that were using ray tracing translation for Vulkan needed to be updated. For some of them I updated their baselines to use `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` so that they can test the new path. For others, I updated the command line for the test case so that it explicitly opts into using `GL_NV_ray_tracing`. The result is that we have some coverage of each extension. I would have liked to have each test run in both modes, but our pass-through glslang support doesn't support `-D` options, so I couldn't take that step easily. This change does *not* add support for `GL_EXT_ray_query`, the extension that supports "DXR 1.1" style queries under Vulkan. Adding support for that extension should hopefully be a smaller step because it doesn't have the same multiple-extensions issue. This change does *not* address a lot of possible avenues for improvement or cleanup around the capability system. It focuses only on those changes that are necessary to make the ray tracing feature work and leaves the rest for future work. * fixup: infinite loop * Comment-only change to retrigger TC build
2020-09-23Simplify workflow when using NVAPI (#1556)Tim Foley
In some cases, functionality is available as either a GLSL extension for Vulkan/SPIR-V, or through the NVAPI system for D3D. This situation creates complications because while GLSL extensions are generally all supported by the open-source glslang compiler (which we can bundle and ship), NVAPI operations are exposed through a specific header (`nvHLSLExtns.h`) that ships as part of the NVAPI SDK. When a user wants to explicitly use NVAPI-provided operations in their shader code, there are no major complications for Slang; the user sets up their include paths, `#include`s the relevant header, calls functions in it, and lets Slang deal with the details of compilation. The challenge for Slang arises when we want to provide a cross-platform interface in our standard library (e.g., the `RWByteAddressBuffer.InterlockedAddF32` method that was recently added) that uses either a GLSL extension (when compiling for Vulkan/SPIR-V) or an NVAPI (when compiling to DXBC or DXIL). In that case, the code *generated* by Slang now has a dependency on NVAPI, and we need to somehow emit a `#include` directive that pulls it in when invoking fxc or dxc. Because we do not (and seemingly cannot) bundle the NVAPI header with the compiler, we have to rely on ther user to have it available and to somehow communicate to Slang where it is. Exposing portable routines that sometimes use NVAPI currently creates two main challenges: 1. The user is forced to interact with the "prelude" mechanism in the compiler, which allows the programmer to define code in a given target language that gets prepended to the Slang-generated code. While the prelude mechanism is powerful, it is also hard for users to integrate into their workflow, and our experience so far is that users want something that Just Works. 2. If the user writes code that uses some of our abstract operations that layer on NVAPI *and* they also want to use NVAPI explicitly, they end up with two copies of the NVAPI header (one included by the Slang front-end, and another included by the downstream fxc/dxc compiler). This puts the user in the situation of (a) having to ensure that they set the defines like `NV_SHADER_EXTN_SLOT` consistently both when invoking Slang and when adding their prelude, and (b) even if they do make the definitions consistent, they run into the problem that fxc/dxc complain about overlapping register bindings on the two copies of the `g_NvidiaExt` global shader paraemter that the NVAPI header declares. This change attempts to resolve both issues by adding a lot of "do what I mean" logic to the compiler to try to ease things in the common case. In particular: 1. The user no longer needs to use the "prelude" mechanism when using NVAPI. The compiler now embeds a default prelude for HLSL output, which will `#include` the NVAPI header if and only if the generated code needs NVAPI access because of portable standard library routines that were used. 2. The user can mix-and-match explicit NVAPI use and stdlib functions that compile to use NVAPI. The register/space to be used by NVAPI when included via prelude is now set based on whatever the user set via the preprocessor so that it should automatically be consistent between both cases. Furthermore, the code we emit for the declaration of `g_NvidiaExt` when compiling explicit NVAPI use is set up to be conditional, so that it is skipped in the case where the prelude will pull in its own declaration of that parameter. The way all this is achieved involves a lot of moving pieces: * We now have an HLSL prelude, which mostly just serves to `#include "nvHLSLExtns.h"` in the case where NVAPI support is needed downstream. * Standard library operations that require NVAPI for their implementation on HLSL include a new `[__requiresNVAPI]` attribute. * The preprocessor has been extended so that after tokenizing an input file it looks up the NVAPI-relevant macros in the resulting environment, and if they are set it attached a modifier (`NVAPISlotModifier1) to the AST `ModuleDecl` that is based on their values. Logic is added to detect if multiple input files specify values for the macros in ways that conflict. * The semantic checking step is extended so that it detects the "magic" NVAPI declarations (the `g_NvidiaExt` paramter and the `NvShaderExtnStruct` type that it uses) and attaches a modifier to them so that they can be identified as such in later steps. * Parameter binding is extended to collect a list of the AST modifiers that reflect NVAPI binding, and to reserve the relevant register(s) so that ordinary user-defined parameters cannot conflict with them. * IR lowering translates the three new AST modifiers related to NVAPI over to IR equivalents. * IR linking is extended to make sure that it clones any `IRNVAPISlotDecoration`s attached to the input modules. The pass intentionally does not care where the modifiers came from; it just collects them all and leaves it to downstream code to sort out what they mean. * Emit logic is extended to have a notion of "prelude directives" which are preprocessor directives that should come *before* the prelude in the generated code, because they can impact the way that the prelude compiles. This is done so that we don't have to introduce ad hoc logic for each downstream compiler to set any relevant `-D` flags (e.g., both fxc and dxc would need to duplicate such logic for NVAPI support). * The HLSL source emitter is extended to track whether it emits any operations that require NVAPI support. * The HLSL source emitter is extended to emit prelude directives based on whether NVAPI is needed and, if it is, to also set the register and space that NVAPI should use based on what was stored in the decoration(s) on the IR module. * The HLSL source emitter is extended so that it detects global instructions that represent "magic" NVAPI constructs , and emit them as conditional definitions so that they are skipped when NVAPI is included via the prelude. * The handling of requires capabilities during emit logic was cleaned up a bit so that more logic is shared across targets, and also so that the same logic is used both when emitting a function declaration/definition and when emitting a call to an instrinsic function (which won't get declared/defined).

2020-05-01Improve GLSL coverage of boolean binary ops (#1335)Tim Foley
* Improve GLSL coverage of boolean binary ops This change ensures that the `&&`, `||`, `&`, `|`, and `^` apply correctly to vectors of `bool` values when targetting GLSL. Most of the changes are in the GLSL emit path, where the IR instructions for these operators are bottlenecked through a small set of helper routines to cover the different cases. In general: * The vector variants of the operations are implemented by casting to `uint` vectors, performing bitwise ops, then casting back * The scalar variants are handled by conveting the bitwise operations to their equivalent logical operator (the one interesting case there is bitwise `^` where the equivalent logical operation on `bool` is `!=`) This change makes it clear that our IR really shouldn't have distinct opcodes for logical vs. bitwise and/or/xor, and instead should just have a single family of operations where the behavior differs based on the type of the operand. That is already *de facto* the way things work (a user can always write `&`, `|` and `^` and expect them to work on `bool` and vectors of `bool`), so that the GLSL output path has to deal with the overlap. Having two sets of IR ops here actually makes for more code instead of less. * Fixups: review feedback and test ! operator
2020-04-27Add support for generic load/store on byte-addressed buffers (#1334)Tim Foley
* Add support for generic load/store on byte-addressed buffers Introduction ============ The HLSL `*ByteAddressBuffer` types originaly only supported loading/storing `uint` values or vectors of the same, using `Load`/`Load2`/`Load3`/`Load4` or `Store`/`Store2`/`Store3`/`Store4`. More recent versions of dxc have added support for generic `Load<T>` and `Store<T>`, which adds a two main pieces of functionality for users. The first and more fundamental feature is that `T` can be a type that isn't 32 bits in size (or a vector with elements of such a type), thus exposing a capability that is difficult or impossible to emulate on top of 32-bit load/store (depending on what guarantees `*StructuredBuffer` makes about the atomicity of loads/stores). The secondary benefit of having a generic `Load<T>` and `Store<T>` is that it becomes possible to load/store types like `float` without manual bit-casting, and also becomes possible to load/store `struct` types so long as all the fields are loadable/storable. This change adds generic `Load<T>` and `Store<T>` to the Slang standard library definition of byte-address buffers, and tries to bring those same benefits to as many targets as possible. In particular, the secondary benefits become available on all targets, including DXBC: byte-address buffers can be used to directly load/store types other than `uint`, including user-defined `struct` types, so long as all of the fields of those types can be loaded/stored. The ability to load/store non-32-bit types depends on target capabilities, and so is only available where direct support for those types is available. For 16-bit types like `half` this includes both Vulkan and D3D12 DXIL with appropriate extensions or shader models. The implementation is somewhat involved, so I will try to explain the pieces here. Standard Library ================ The changes to the Slang standard library in `hlsl.meta.slang` are pretty simple. We add new `Load<T>` and `Store<T>` generic methods to `*ByteAddressBuffer`, and route them through to a new IR opcode. Right now the generic `Load<T>` and `Store<T>` do *not* place any constraints on the type `T`, although in practice they should only work when `T` is a fixed-size type that only contains "first class" uniform/ordinary data (so no resources, unless the target makes resource types first class). Our front-end checking cannot currently represent first-class-ness and validate it (nor can it represent fixed-size-ness), so these gaps will have to do for now. Rather than directly translate `Load<T>` or `Store<T>` calls into a single instruction, we instead bottleneck them through internal-use-only subroutines. The design choice here is intended to ensure that for some large user-defined type like `MassiveMaterialStruct` we only emit code for loading all of its fields *once* in the output HLSL/GLSL rather than once per load site. While downstream compilers are likely to inline all of this logic anyway, we are doing what we can to avoid generating bloated code. Emit and C++/CUDA ================= Over in `slang-emit-c-like.cpp` we translate the new ops into output code in a straightforward way. A call like `obj.Load<Foo>(offset)` will eventually output as a call like `obj.Load<Foo>(offset)` in the generated code, by default. For the CPU C++ and CUDA C++ codegen paths, this is enough to make a workable implementation, and we add suitable templated `Load<T>` and `Store<T>` declarations to the prelude for those targets. Legalization ============ For targets like DXBC and GLSL there is no way to emit a load operation for an aggregate type like a `struct`, so we introduce a legalization pass on the IR that will translate our byte-address-buffer load/store ops into multiple ops that are legal for the target. Scalarization ------------- The big picture here is easy enough to understand: when we see a load of a `struct` type from a byte-address buffer, we translate that into loads for each of the fields, and then assemble a new `struct` value from the results. We do similar things for arrays, matrices, and optionally for vectors (depending on the target). Bit Casting ----------- After scalarization alone, we might have a load of a `float` or a `float3` that isn't legal for D3D11/DXBC, but that *would* be legal if we just loaded a `uint` or `uint3` and then bit-casted it. The legalization pass thus includes an option to allow for loads/stores to be translated to operate on a same-size unsigned integer type and then to bit-cast. To make this work actually usable, I had to add some more details to the implementation of the bit-cast op during HLSL emit and, more importantly, I had to customize the way that the byte-address buffer load/store ops get emitted to HLSL so that it prefers to use the existing operations like `Load`/`Load2`/`Load3`/`Load4` instead of the generic one, whenever operating on `uint`s or vectors of `uint`. Translation to Structured Buffers --------------------------------- Even after scalarizing all byte-address-buffer loads/stores, we still have a problem for GLSL targets, because a single global `buffer` declaration used to back a byte-address buffer can only have a single element type (currently always `uint`), so the granularity of loads/stores it can express is fixed at declaration time. If we want to load a `half` from a byte-address buffer, we need a dedicated `buffer` declaration in the output GLSL with an element type of `half`. The solution we employ here is to translate all byte-address buffer loads into "equivalent" structured-buffer ops when targetting GLSL. We add logic to find the underlying global shader parameter that was used for a load/store and introduce a new structured-buffer parameter with the desired element type (e.g., `half`) and then rewrite the load/store op to use that buffer instead. We copy layout information from the original buffer to the new one, so that in the output GLSL all the various `buffer`s will use a single `binding` and thus alias "for free." We don't want to create a new global buffer for every load/store, so we try to cache these "equivalent" structured buffers as best as we can. For the caching I ended up needing a pair to use as a key, so I tweaked the `KeyValuePair<K,V>` type in `core` so that it could actually work for that purpose. Because we are working at the level of IR instructions instead of stdlib functions at this work I had to add new IR opcodes to represent structured-buffer load/store that only (currently) apply to GLSL. Layout ====== In order to translate a load/store of a `struct` type into per-field load/store we need a way to access layout information for the types of the fields. Previously layout information has been an AST-level concern that then gets passed down to the IR only when needed and only on global parameters, so layout information isn't always available in cases like this, at the actual load/store point. As an expedient move for now I've introduced a dedicated module that does IR-level layout and caches its results on the IR types themselves. This approach *only* supports the "natural" layout of a type, and thus is usable for structured buffers and byte-address buffers (or general pointer load/store on targets that support it), but which is *not* usable for things like constant buffer layout. We've known for a while that the Right Way to do layout going forward is to have an IR-based layout system, and this could either be seen as a first step toward it, or else as a gross short-term hack. YMMV. Details ======= The GLSL "extension tracker" stuff around type support needed to be tweaked to recognize that types like `int16_t` aren't actually available by default. I switched it from using a "black list" of unavailable types at initialization time over to using a "white list" of types that are known to always be available without any extensions. Tests ===== There are two tests checked in here: one for the basic case of a `struct` type that has fields that should all be natively loadable, and one that stresses 16-bit types. Each test uses both load and store operations. Future Directions ================= Right now we translate vector load/store to GLSL as load/store of individual scalars, which means the assumed alignment is just that of the scalars (consistent with HLSL byte-address buffer rules). We could conceivably introduce some controls to allow outputting the vector load/store ops more directly to GLSL (e.g., declaring a `buffer` of `float4`s), which might enable more efficient load/store based on the alignment rules for `buffer`s. The IR layout work has a number of rough edges, but the most worrying is probably the assumption that all matrices are laid out in row-major order. Slang really needs an overhaul of its handling of matrices and matrix layout, so I don't know if we can do much better in the near term. At some point the IR-based layout system needs to be reconciled with our current AST-base layout, and we need to figure out how "natural" layout and the currently computed layouts co-exist (in particular, we need to make sure that the IR-based layout and the existing layout logic for structured buffers will agree). This probably needs to come along once we have moved the core layout logic to operate on IR types instead of AST types (a change we keep talking about). As part of this work I had to touch the implementation of bit-casting for HLSL, and it seems like that logic has some serious gaps. We really ought to consider a separate legalization pass that can turn IR bitcast instructions into the separate ops that a target actually supports so that we can implement `uint64_t`<->`double` and other conersions that are technically achievable, but which are hard to express in HLSL today. * fixup: missing files
2020-04-08Replace /* unhandled */ in source emit with a real error (#1313)Tim Foley
For a long time the various source-to-source back-ends have been emitted the text `/* unhandled */` when they encounter an IR instruction opcode that didn't have any emit logic implemented. This choice had two apparent benefits: * In most common cases, emitting `/* unhandled */` in place of an expression would lead to downstream compilation failure, so most catastrophic cases seemed to work as desired (e.g., if we emit `int i = /* unhandled */;` we get a downstream parse error and we know something is wrong. * In a few cases, if a dead-but-harmless instruction slips through (e.g., a type formed in the body of a specialized generic function), we would emit `/* unhandled */;`, which is a valid empty statement. It is already clear from the above write-up that the benefits of the policy aren't really that compelling, and where it has recently turned out to be a big liability is that there are actually plenty of cases where emitting `/* unhandled */` instead of a sub-expression won't cause downstream compilation failure, and will instead silently compute incorrect results: * Emitting `/* unhandled */ + b` instead of `a + b` * Emitting `/* unhandled */(a)` instead of `f(a)`, or even `/* unhandled */(a, b)` instead of `f(a,b)` * Emitting `f(/*unhandled*/)` instead of `f(a)` in cases where `f` is a built-in with both zero-argument and one-argument overloads The right fix here is simple: where we would have emitted `/* unhandled */` to the output we should instead diagnose an internal compiler error, thus leading to compilation failure. This change appears to pass all our current tests, but it is possible that there are going to be complicated cases in user code that were relying on the previous lax behavior. I know from experience that we sometimes see `/* unhandled */` in output for generics, and while we have eliminated many of those cases I don't have confidence we've dealt with them all. When this change lands we should make sure that the first release that incorporates it is marked as potentially breaking for clients, and we should make sure to test the changes in the context of the client codebases before those codebases integrate the new release.

2020-03-11Clean-ups related to expanded standard library coverage (#1269)Tim Foley
This change continues the work already started in moving the definitions of many built-in functions to the standard library. The main focus in this change was reducing the number of operations that had to be special-cased on the CPU and CUDA targets by making sure that the scalar cases of built-in functions map to the proper names in the prelude (e.g., `F32_sin()`) via the ordinary `__target_intrinsic` mechanism. In some cases this cleanup meant that special-case logic that was constructing definitions for those functions using C++ code could be scrapped. Additional changes made along the way: * A few scalar functions that were missing in the CPU/CUDA preludes got added: `round`, hyperbolic trigonometric functions, `frexp`, `modf`, and `fma` * The floating-point `min()` and `max()` definitions in the preludes were changed to use intrinsic operations on the target (which are likely to follow IEEE semantics, while our definitions did not) * For the CUDA target, many of the functions had their names translated during code emit from, e.g., `sin` to `sinf`. This change makes the CUDA target more closely match the C++/CPU target in using names like `F32_sin` consistently. * For the CUDA target, a few additional functions have intrinsics that don't exist (portably) on CPU: `sincos()` and `rsqrt()`. * For the Slang stdlib definitions to work, a new `$P` replacement was defined for `__targert_intrinsic` that expands to a type based on the first operand of the function (e.g., `F32` for `float`). * I removed the dedicated opcodes for matrix-matrix, matrix-vector, and vector-matrix multiplication, and instead turned them into ordinary functions with definitions and `__target_intrinsic` modifiers to map them appropriately for HLSL and GLSL. This is realistically how we would have implemented these if we'd had `__target_intrinsic` from the start. Notes about possible follow-on work: * The `ldexp` function is still left in the Slang stdlib because it has to account for a floating-point exponent and the `math.h` version only handles integers for the exponent. It is possible that we can/should define another overload for `ldexp` (and `frexp`) that uses an integer for exponent, and then have that one be a built-in on CPU/CUDA, with the HLSL `frexp` being defined in the stdlib to delegate to the correct `frexp` for those targets. * The `firstbithigh` and related functions are missing for our CPU and CUDA targets, and will need to be added. It is worth nothing that `firstbithigh` apparently has some very odd functionality around signed integer arguments (which are supported, despite MSDN being unclear on that point). General cleanup will be required for those functions. * Maxing the various matrix and vector products no longer be intrinsic ops might affect how we emit code for them as sub-expressions (both whether we fold them into use sites and how we parenthize them). This doesn't seem to affect any of our existing tests, but we could consider marking these functions with `[__readNone]` to ensure they can be folded, and then also adding whatever modifier(s) we might invent to control precdence and parentheses insertion during emit.

2020-02-10Add attributes to enable dual-source blending on Vulkan (#1210)Tim Foley
This change adds support for the `[[vk::location(...)]]` and `[[vk::index(...)]]` attributes, which can be used together to mark up shader outputs for dual-source blending on Vulkan. HLSL/Slang code like the following: ```hlsl struct Output { [[vk::location(0)]] float4 a : SV_Target0; [[vk::location(0), vk::index(1)]] float4 b : SV_Target1; } [shader("fragment")] Output main(...) { ...} ``` can be used to set up dual-source blending on both D3D and Vulkan APIs. The output GLSL for the above will look something like: ```glsl layout(location = 0) out vec4 a; layout(location = 0, index = 1) out vec4 b; void main() { ... } ``` The more or less straightforward parts of this change were: * Added new `attribute_syntax` declarations to the stdlib, for `[[vk::location(...)]]` and `[[vk::index(...)]]` * Added new AST node types for the new attribute cases, sharing a base class so that argument checking can be shared * Added checks for the arguments to the new attributes in `slang-check-modifier.cpp` (eventually this kind of logic shouldn't be needed for new attributes) * Updated GLSL emit logic so that it treats the `index`/`space` parts of a variable layout as the `location`/`index` for varying parameters. * Updated GLSL legalization so that when it translates entry-point parameters into globals (and scalarizes structures) it handles both a binding index and space for the parameters. * Added a cross-compilation test case to verify that the basics of the feature work The remaining work is all in `slang-parameter-binding.cpp`. There is some work that isn't technically related to this change (and which could be reverted if it causes problems), around the detection and handling of fragment shader outputs with `SV_Target` semantics. The basic changes (which could be backed out and then merged separately) are: * Made the special-case `SV_Target` logic only trigger for fragment shaders (that is the only place where `SV_Target` should appear, but we weren't guarding against it) * Made the logic to reserve a `u<N>` register for `SV_Target<N>` only trigger for D3D Shader Model 5.0 and below (since it is not required for SM 5.1 and up). This could be a breaking change for some users, but that seems unlikely. * Fixed one test case that relied on the behavior of reserving `u0` for `SV_Target0` even though it was a SM6.0 test. * Also added more comments to the system-value handling logic. The more interesting changes come up starting in `processEntryPointVaryingParameterDecl()`. The basic issue is that we have so far only supported implicit layout for varying parameters on GLSL/Vulkan, but the `[[vk::location(...)]]` attribute is a form of explicit layout annotation. Rather than try to kludge something that only works in narrow cases, I instead opted to try to fix things more generally. In `processEntryPointVaryingParameterDecl()` we now check for the `location` and `index` attributes when we are on "Khronos" targets (Vulkan/OpenGL/GLSL) and immediately add them to the variable layout being constructed if they are found. There is nothing in this logic specific to fragment-shader outputs, so this feature now applies to any varying input/output on Khronos targets. Allowing explicit layouts creates the potential for mixing implicit and explicit layout. For example, consider: ```hlsl struct Output { float4 color : COLOR; [[vk::location(0)]] float3 normal : NORMAL; } ``` What `location` should `color` get? Should this code be an error? There are two cases where this conundrum can come up: when working with `struct` types used for varying parameters, and the entry-point parameter list itself. For the varying `struct` case we currently make an expedient choice. We handle fields with both implicit or explicit layotu with appropriate logic, but logic that doesn't account for the case of mixing the two. Then at the end of layout for the `struct` we issue an error if there was a mix of implicit and explicit layout (such that our results aren't likely to be valid). For the entry point varying parameter case, things were already using a `ScopeLayoutBuilder` type (that encapsulates some logic shared between entry-point and global parameters). The entry-point-specific bits were moved out into a `SimpleScopeLayoutBuilder` and it was updated so that rather than assuming all parameters use implicit layout it does a two-phase layout approach similar to what we use for the global scope: * First all parameters are enumerated to collect explicit bindings and mark certain ranges as "used" * Next the parameters are enumerated again and those without explicit bindings get allocated space using a "first fit" algorithm In principle we could extend the two-phase approach to apply to `struct` types as well, but that would be best saved for a future refactoring of some of this parameter binding logic, since I would like to exploit more of the opportunities for sharing code across the uniform/varying and struct/entry-point/global cases. By moving the point where entry point parameters get their offsets assigned, it was necessary to move around some of the logic that removes varying parameter usage (and other things that shouldn't "leak" out of an entry point) to a different point in the entry point layout process. While adding these various pieces does not quite enable us to support explicit bindings on entry point parameters (e.g., putting `uniform Texture2D t : register(t0)` in an entry point parameter list) or in `struct` types (e.g., explicit `packoffset` annotations on fields), it starts to provide some of the infrastructure that we'd need in order to support those cases.
2020-02-07Change handling of strings for HLSL/GLSL targets (#1204)Tim Foley
* Change handling of strings for HLSL/GLSL targets This change switches our handling of string literals and `getStringHash` to something that is more streamlined at the cost of potentially being less general/flexible. * `String` is now allowed as a parameter type in user-defined functions * `getStringHash` is now allowed to apply to `String`-type values that aren't literals * The list of strings in an IR module is now generated during IR lowering as part of lowering a string literal expression, rather than being defined by recursively walking the IR of the module looking for `getStringHash` calls. The public API still refers to these as "hashed" strings, but they are realistically now "static strings." * When emitting code for HLSL/GLSL, the `String` type emits as `int`, and `getStringHash(x)` emits as `x`. In terms of implementation, the choice was whether to translate `String` over to `int` in an explicit IR pass, or to lump it into the emit pass. While adding the logic to emit clutters up an already complicated step, it is ultimately much easier to make the change there than to write a clean IR pass to eliminate all `String` use. Note that other targets that can handle a more full-featured `String` type are *not* addressed by this change and thus do not support `String` at all. It may be woth emitting `String` as `const char*` on those targets, and emitting string literals directly, but the `getStringHash` function would need to be implemented in the "prelude" then, and we probably want to pick a well-known/-documented hash algorithm before we go that far. This change also brings along some some clean-ups to the `gpu-printing` example, since it can now take advantage of the new functionality of `String`. * Fix up tests for new string handling * Add global string literal list to string-literal test (since we now list *all* static string literals and not just those passed to `getStringHash`) * Disable `getStringHash` test on CPU, since we don't have a working `String` on that platform right now (only HLSL/GLSL) Co-authored-by: Tim Foley <tim.foley.is@gmail.com>
