The Slang compiler was segfaulting when trying to compile shaders that
return resource types (like `Texture2D`, `RWTexture2D`, `SamplerState`,
etc.) from entry point functions. This occurred because there was
missing validation that should reject such invalid return types before
they reach IR generation.
For example, this code would cause a segfault:
```slang
StructuredBuffer<Texture2D<int>> skyLight;
[shader("compute")]
Texture2D<int> computeMain(uint3 threadID : SV_DispatchThreadID)
{
return skyLight[threadID.x];
}
```
## Root Cause
The issue was in the entry point validation logic in
`validateEntryPoint()`. While there was a TODO comment indicating that
return type validation should be performed, it was never implemented.
The compiler would accept the invalid shader code and attempt to process
it during IR lowering, where resource types as return values are not
properly handled, leading to a segmentation fault.
## Solution
1. **Added robust validation**: Modified `validateEntryPoint()` in
`slang-check-shader.cpp` to use the existing
`SemanticsVisitor::getTypeTags()` functionality to check for invalid
return types by detecting `TypeTag::Opaque` and `TypeTag::Unsized` bits.
This leverages the existing type analysis infrastructure that
comprehensively handles:
- Direct resource types (Texture2D, RWTexture2D, SamplerState, etc.)
- Structs containing resource-typed fields (through type tag
propagation)
- Nested structures and complex type hierarchies
- Arrays and other composite types
2. **Added diagnostic message**: Uses existing diagnostic
`entryPointCannotReturnResourceType` (error 38010) that provides a clear
error message explaining why resource types cannot be returned from
shader entry points
3. **Updated existing tests**: Modified existing tests to match the
updated validation behavior
## Result
Instead of a segfault, users now get a clear, actionable error message:
```
error 38010: entry point 'computeMain' cannot return type 'Texture2D<int>' that contains resource types
```
The fix properly handles all resource types including `Texture2D`,
`RWTexture2D`, `SamplerState`, and others, while preserving the ability
to compile valid shaders that return simple data types.
Fixes #6438.

Treat DescriptorHandle as uint64_t instead of uint2. Implement
target-specific SPIR-V emission with the bindless texture support.
For OpImageTexelPointer, Image must have a type of OpTypePointer with
Type OpTypeImage. Fix the issue by using [constref] in __subscript.
Add a test coverage for various texture/sampler handle types.

Generate a diagnostic warning whenever unsupported modifiers (keywords,
attributes) are found on entry point parameters. These have been
silently ignored up until now, with the parser accepting them but Slang
not actually doing anything with them.

Fixes #7715
Updating the Vulkan SDK on the Windows CI machines to 1.4.321.1 has
fixed some illegitimate VVL errors in the `cooperative-vector` tests,
and #8541 has fixed some legitimate VVL errors in some of those tests,
so now they can be removed from the list of expected test failures.
The only expected `cooperative-vector` failures that remain are for
`-emit-spriv-via-glsl`, as we do not support
`GLSL_NV_cooperative_vector` yet, see #7727.

It appears that the inputType of the coopvec-mat-mul cannot be signed
int32.
It could be floating types or signed int32.
Changing the tests to use uint32 instead of int32.
The spec guarantees the following combinations and the rest should be
queried at the runtime if it is supported by the HW.

This commit removes unnecessary Load and Store pairs in IR.
When the IR is like
```
let %1 = var
let %2 = load(%ptr)
store(%1 %2)
```
This PR will replace all uses of %1 with %ptr.
And the load and store instructions will be removed.
But I found that there can be cases where %2 might be still used later
in other IRs.
For these cases, the removal of load instruction relies on DCE.

This fixes a type mismatch issue. See the generated cuda code
```cuda
struct Query_0
{
EmptyExample_0 query_0;
uint hasNonEmptyAbsorbingBoundary_0;
};
struct Query_1
{
uint hasNonEmptyAbsorbingBoundary_0;
};
struct GlobalParams_0
{
Query_0* gQuery_0;
RWStructuredBuffer<float3 > gInput_0;
RWStructuredBuffer<float> gOutput_0;
};
...
Query_1 _S4 = *globalParams_0->gQuery_0; // ==> type mismatch at call site!
```
**Root Cause:** During the empty type legalization pass in Slang's IR
processing, struct types were being optimized. e.g., `Query_0` →
`Query_1` with empty type removed), but this created an inconsistency:
**Function parameters were updated:** When Query_compute_0 function was
legalized, its parameter type was correctly updated from `Query_0` to
the optimized `Query_1`
**Global parameter types were NOT updated:** The
`ParameterBlock<Struct>` type in globalParams still referenced the old
`Query_0` type
The PR adds special handling for type operands in the `legalizeInst`
function. This triggers the legalization of the `StructType` from the
original `legalizeOperand` call site. The leaglized result will be saved
in the type-to-legal-type map and be re-used when the same type requires
legalization again (e.g. in the `IRFunc` as parameter)
Fixes: https://github.com/shader-slang/slang/issues/7905

Close #8201.
This PR unify the lowering logic for LookupDeclRef of an interface
requirement. We will always lower this AST node to a
LookupWitness IR. The key of this IR is the special witnessTableType
`ThisTypeWitness`, this witness Table is simply a wrapper for an
interface type. Our current specialization pass doesn't handle this kind
of LookupWitness IR at all, so we will also add the specialization of
this_type IR as well.
|
|
Close #8193.
When constructing `TransitiveTypeWitness` node, we should check if there
is operand that represents two equal times. Currently, we only check
whether the operand is `TypeEqualityWitness`, which is not good enough,
because a `DeclaredSubtypeWitness` could also be representing two same
types, in that case, we should also const fold this kind of witness.
Fails to do so, we could finally ends up with a generating a lookup
witness IR on a generic parameter that is not supposed to be looked up.

Closes #8500.
`slang-ir-translate-global-varying-var.cpp` turns the global varying
outputs into a struct that's returned from the entry point. Currently,
there's a problem when one of the outputs is a struct. It always creates
a generic `IRTypeLayout`, even when a correct type layout already
exists. Somehow, this appears to work when the global varying outputs
aren't structs.
The crash occurs in
`slang-ir-glsl-legalize.cpp:createGLSLGlobalVaryingsImpl()`. It
correctly handles the generated outer struct, but when that contains an
inner struct, it's been given a non-struct type layout and crashes.
This PR uses the correct layout if found, instead of generating a broken
placeholder. This matches the behaviour that has already been
implemented for inputs.
Additionally, I removed a call to `addResourceUsage` from both the input
and output side. I can't see any way in which it would've affected
anything, the layout builder is never used after that call and it
doesn't retroactively modify the layout that was already created.

Overview
========
This change is the start of an attempt to address how the Slang compiler
codebase has ended up conflating two similar, but semantically distinct,
concepts:
* The long-standing notion of `ref` parameters (only allowed for use in
the builtin modules), which are encoded using a wrapper `Type` in the
AST as part of the representation of the parameters of a `FuncType`.
* A recently-introduced notion of explicit reference types that mirror
the built-in `Ptr` type, with a relationship comparable to that between
pointer and reference types in C++.
The change splits the `Ref<T>` type in the core module into two distinct
types, with one for each of the two use cases. Similarly, the `RefType`
class in the compiler's AST is split into two distinct classes, to
represent the two cases.
Background
==========
The `Ref<T>` type in the core module (hidden and not intended for users
to ever see or use) was originally introduced to encode the `ref`
parameter-passing mode, comparable to the hidden `Out<T>` and `InOut<T>`
types used to encode `out` and `inout` parameter-passing modes. The
`Ref<T>` type in the core module was encoded as a instance of the
`RefType` class in the Slang AST (similar to how `Out<T>` mapped to an
`OutType`). These AST classes were *only* intended to be used by the
compiler front-end as part of its encoding of function types. The
`FuncType` class needed a way to distinguish an `inout int` parameter
from a plain (implicitly `in`) `int` parameter, so these wrapper like
`RefType` and `OutType` were introduced to encode both the parameter
type (`T`) and the parameter-passing mode in a form that could be passed
around as a `Type`.
Notably, the `Ref<T>` type (and `Out<T>`, etc.) were *not* intended to
be type names that ever get uttered in Slang code (not even in the
builtin modules), and the vast majority of the compiler code was not
supposed to ever encounter them. They were an implementation detail of
`FuncType`, and nothing else.
(In hindsight it may have been a mistake to use a nominal type declared
in the core module to implement these wrappers; it might have been a
good idea to use an entirely separate class of `Type` for this case...)
Recent changes to the builtin modules introduced functions that wanted
to *return* a reference (so that the parameter-passing-mode modifiers
like `ref` could not trivially be used), and as part of those changes
the appealingly-named `Ref<T>` type in the core module was re-used for
this new case. Builtin operations were declared with an explicit
`Ref<T>` return type, and parts of the compiler front-end that had
previously been blissfully unaware of the AST's `RefType` (and
`InOutType`, etc.) had to start accounting for the possibility that an
explicit `Ref<T>` would show up.
Related changes also introduced a comparable conflation of the
(unfortunately-named) `constref` parameter-passing modifier and builtin
operations that wanted to return an explicit reference that is
read-only. Both use cases were mapped to the core-module `ConstRef<T>`
type, which appeared in the AST as an instance of the `ConstRefType`
class.
The overlapping use of `ConstRef<T>`` is actually significantly more
troublesome than the `Ref<T>` case because, despite what its name
implies, `constref` was not really supposed to be the read-only analogue
of `ref`, but rather it is closer to the "immutable value borrow"
analogue to `inout`'s "mutable value borrow." The semantics of a "value
borrow" vs. a "memory reference" in Slang have not been very carefully
codified, and the conflation around `ConstRef<T>` has contributed to
things becoming increasingly muddy in the compiler back-end.
Main Changes
============
Core Module
-----------
The `Ref<T>` type has been replaced with two distinct types, with one
for each use case:
* `RefParam<T>` is intended for use when encoding a `ref` parameter in a
function type
* `ExplicitRef<T>` is intended for use when an operation in a builtin
module wants to return a reference
The other types used to represent parameter-passing modes (e.g.,
`InOut<T>`) were renamed to better indicate that their role in defining
parameter types (e.g., `InOutParam<T>`).
The `ExplicitRef<T>` type was given additional generic parameters for
the allowed access and the address space, akin to what `Ptr<T>` now
supports. The pointer dereference operator (prefix `*`) in the core
module should now properly propagate the access and address space of the
pointer over to the reference that gets returned.
The two distinct use cases of `ConstRef<T>` were not split in the way as
`Ref<T>`, instead the case for the `constref` parameter-passing mode
uses `ConstParamRef<T>`, while cases that previously used `ConstRef<T>`
to represent a read-only explicit reference instead now use
`ExplicitRef<T, Access.Read>`.
Prior to this change there were two subscripts declared on pointers: one
in the `Ptr` type itself, and another in an `extension` for pointers
with `Access.ReadWrite`. The comments on the code seemed to indicate
that the catch-all subscript used to only have a `get` accessor, while
the `ref` was only available on read-write pointers, but it seems that
subsequent changes converted the default subscript to support `ref`.
This change eliminates the subscript added via `extension`, since it is
redundant.
AST and Front-End
=================
Similar to the changes in the core module, the AST `RefType` class was
split into:
* `RefParamType` for the case of encoding `ref` parameters
* `ExplicitRefType` for the case where the user meant an explicit
reference type
All the other classes that represent wrappers for encoding
parameter-passing modes (e.g., `OutType`) were similarly renamed (e.g.,
`OutParamType`).
The `ConstRefType` class was simply renamed to `ConstRefParamType`,
because any use cases of `ConstRefType` that intended an explicit
reference type will now use `ExplicitRefType` with `Acccess.Read`.
For convenience, this change includes type aliases to map the old names
for these types over to the new ones (e.g., `using OutType =
OutParamType`) so that the change doesn't need to affect quite so many
lines of code. The `RefType` and `ConstRefType` names are intentionally
left undefined, since it woudl be unsafe to assume that existing use
sites should default to either of the two possible interpretations.
All use cases of `RefType` and `ConstRefType` (and their former shared
base class `RefTypeBase`) were audited and updated to refer to either
`RefParamType`/`ConstRefParamType` or `ExplicitRefType`, as appropriate
(based on whether the context of the code indicated it was working with
parameter-passing mode wrapper types, or explicit reference types).
In many (many) cases comments were added to the code that was updated
(and some unrelated code that needed to be audited along the way) to
note cases where there appears to be something fishy going on in the
compiler and/or there are obvious opportunities for next-step
improvement.
The `QualType` constructor used to infer l-value-ness when passed a
`RefType` or `ConstRefType`; that code was introduced to support
explicit reference types. The code was updated to consult the access
argument of an `ExplicitRefType` to try and determine the right
l-value-ness to use. There is some ambiguity about what should be done
in the case where the value of the generic argument representing the
access cannot be statically determined; a better solution may be needed.
Many other cases in the front-end that were working with `RefType` and
`ConstRefType` for explicit references also need to figure out
l-value-ness, and these were changed to rely on the logic already added
to `QualType` so that it wouldn't have to be duplicated. It isn't clear
if this structure is the best way to tackle the problem, but it seems to
at least be an upgrade over the more strictly ad-hoc logic that was in
place before.
Future Work
===========
IR-Level Work
-------------
The most obvious next step to take is that the split that was made in
the compiler front-end needs to be properly plumbed through all of the
back-end. There appears to be a lot of code in the back end of the
compiler that has made the same conflation of `ref` parameters and
explicit reference types that the front-end did. In practice, any uses
of `ExplicitRef<T>` in the front-end should desugar into plain
pointer-based code in the IR.
Clean Up Parameter-Passing Modes
--------------------------------
The code that handles different parameter-passing modes
(`ParameterDirection`s) and their wrapper types is somewhat scattered
and messy (as found while auditing use cases of `RefType`). A cleanup
pass is warranted to ensure that most code only needs to think about
`ParameterDirection`s. There should ideally be only a single operation
in the front-end that handles determining the `ParameterDirection` of a
parameter based on its modifiers. Similarly, there should be one
operation to wrap a value type based on a parameter direction, and one
operation to derive a `ParameterDirection` from the wrapper type.
Ideally, the accessors for `FuncType` should not provide unrestricted
access to the potentially-wrapped parameter types, and should instead
return some kind of `ParamInfo` struct that encodes both a
`ParameterDirection` and the unwrapped `Type` of the parameter.
Clean Up `QualType`
-------------------
A significant piece of future work that appears required is to
drastically clean up and improve the way that `QualType`s are represente
and handled in the front-end. There are currently various distinct
`bool` flags in `QualType` (some with very unclear meaning) and
differnet parts of the codebase consult/modify only subsets of them; a
clear enumeration of the "value categories" (to use the C++ terminology)
that Slang supports could be quite helpful. Naively, a `QualType` should
at least encode the basic information that a `Ptr` type encodes:
* A value type
* Allowed access (read-only, read-write, etc.)
* Address space
The main additional thing that a `QualType` needs is a way to
distinguish cases where an expression evaluates to:
* A reference to a memory location, where all the information from a
`Ptr` is relevant
* A simple value, such that the access and address space are irrelevant
* A reference to an abstract storage location (a `property`,
`subscript`, or an implicit conversion that needs to support being an
l-value), in which case address space is irrelevant and the "allowed
access" basically amounts to a listing of the accessors the storage
location supports
Eliminate Explicit Reference Types
----------------------------------
Finally, twe should eventually eliminate the `ExplicitRef<T>` type from
the core module (and all of the supporting code from the front-end),
since the feature is not a good fit for the Slang language. We should
find some other way to decorate operations in the builtin module that
need to returns a reference rather than a value (note how `ref`
accessors already avoided exposing explicit reference types, by design).

files (#7957)
This PR implements the requested fix for issue #7923 where
DebugCompilationUnit incorrectly referenced header files instead of the
main shader file.
## Summary
- Modified IRDebugSource to include isIncludedFile flag as third operand
- Updated emitDebugSource function to accept and pass the included file
flag
- Updated call sites to use source->isIncludedFile() from SourceFile
class
- Modified SPIR-V emission to only create DebugCompilationUnit for
non-included files
## Test Results
The fix has been verified with the provided reproducer code. The SPIR-V
output now correctly shows DebugCompilationUnit referencing the main
shader file instead of header files.

Fix CUDA global variable initialization with constructor calls
Resolves CUDA compilation failure where global variables with struct
constructor
initialization generated illegal `__device__` variable runtime
initialization.
**Problem:**
```cuda
// Generated invalid CUDA code:
__device__ static const Stuff_0 gStuff_0 = Stuff_x24init_0(args...);
// Error: "dynamic initialization is not supported for a __device__
variable"
Root Cause Discovered:
Through extensive debugging, found that
moveGlobalVarInitializationToEntryPoints
pass only handled kIROp_GlobalVar instructions, but global constants
with
constructor calls appeared as kIROp_Call instructions at module scope.
Solution:
1. IR Pipeline Fix: Extended moveGlobalVarInitializationToEntryPoints to
detect
and transform module-level constructor calls into proper global
variables with
entry-point initialization
2. Field Access Fix: Enhanced kIROp_FieldExtract logic to emit correct
->
syntax for pointer types and address-of operations
3. Constructor Emission: Added CUDA-specific handling for constructor
calls
Architecture:
- Transforms let %gStuff = call %Constructor(...) into kernel context
initialization
- Moves runtime initialization from global scope to entry-point
execution
- Follows CUDA best practices for global state management
Files:
- source/slang/slang-ir-explicit-global-init.cpp: Extended IR
transformation pass
- source/slang/slang-emit-c-like.cpp: Enhanced field access and foldable
value logic
- source/slang/slang-emit-cuda.cpp: Added CUDA-specific field extraction
handling
Result:
// Now generates proper CUDA code:
struct KernelContext_0 { Stuff_0 gStuff_1; };
// Runtime initialization in entry point:
kernelContext_1.gStuff_1 = constructor_call();

requirements (#7269)
## Summary
This PR enhances constexpr validation by adding proper error checking
when function arguments cannot satisfy constexpr parameter requirements,
addressing issue #6370.
## Problem
Previously, when a function declared constexpr parameters, the compiler
would attempt to propagate constexpr-ness to the call site arguments,
but there was insufficient validation and error reporting when this
propagation failed. This could lead silent failures where constexpr
requirements weren't properly enforced
## Solution
This PR adds checks that:
1. **Validates constexpr arguments**: When a function parameter is
marked as `constexpr`, the compiler now explicitly checks that the
corresponding argument can be marked as `constexpr`
2. **Issues clear compilation errors**: added
`Diagnostics::argIsNotConstexpr`)
3. **Handles both call scenarios**: The validation works for both:
- Direct function calls with IR-level function definitions
- Calls to function from external modules
Fixes #6370

Closes #8409, but ended up being more about fixing another bug. While
the issue itself seems to only be a simple typo fix (see second commit
in this PR), I found out during writing a test that pointers never got
correct locations regardless of layout. Their locations were always
assigned to zero due to lacking a resource usage entry in `TypeLayout`.
They were also missing the `Flat` decoration, so I went ahead and added
that too.
I can split this up into two separate PRs if that's preferred; both
aspects just share a test right now and fix a similar-looking issue in
the resulting SPIR-V.

…function-parameter.slang #8315
Root Cause:
CUDA compilation crashed with `assert failure:
!seenFinalUnsizedArrayField` because unsized arrays like
`RWStructuredBuffer<uint> globalBuffer[]` were not the final field in
generated parameter structs, violating the layout constraint in
slang-ir-layout.cpp.
Fix:
Extended `collectGlobalUniformParameters` to automatically reorder
struct fields for CUDA targets - regular fields first, unsized arrays
last. Other targets preserve original order.
Impact:
- Enables CUDA support for nonuniform resource indexing as function
parameters
- Zero impact on existing GLSL/HLSL/SPIRV targets
- Automatic handling - no manual parameter reordering required

## Problem
When generic functions with debug variables were specialized with
concrete types containing non-debuggable fields (e.g.,
`StructuredBuffer`), the IR cloning process would create invalid
`DebugVar` instructions without checking if the substituted types
remained debuggable.
## Solution
This fix adds a defensive check in the legalization pass that removes
the debugVar created for the non-debuggable types.

Fixes this regression:
```slang
struct MyType
{
// Regression Condition 1: there must be more than one member in the lookup scope.
float v;
int getSum() { return 0; }
}
void m(MyType t)
{
// Regression condition 2: the completion must be in an init expression.
// Regression condition 3: none of the candidate members can coerce to the expected type.
// Regression behavior: no completion candidates are shown, because
// SemanticsVisitor::resolveOverloadedLookup throws an error when there are 0 applicable candidates
// after type coercion filtering.
Texture2D x = t.; // completion request after . here
}
```
The root cause is that we shouldn't be applying candidate filtering on
the candidate list when in completion checking mode.
Closes #8417.

The test can be enabled

This change relaxes a previous restriction on link-time types and
constants, so that we now allow them to be used to define shader
parameters.
Doing so will result in a parameter layout that is incomplete prior to
linking. The PR added a test to call the reflection API on a fully
linked program and ensure that we can report correct binding info.

The code int x4 = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF previously did not produce a

Changes default for render-test to sm_6_5.
Since sm_6_5 is the new default, remove the -use-dxil option, add
-use-dxcb option
Remove -use-dxil option from all test cases.
Add -use-dxcb to two tests that needed it.

This commit is to emit the debug-info for the entry point parameters.
Two things are implemented/fixed in this PR:
- We were not emitting the `DebugVar` and `DebugValue` at the IR
lowering level when the type of the entry point parameter is `ConstRef`.
This commit handles the `ConstRef` case in a same way that the other
types are handled so that `DebugVar` and `DebugValues` are properly
emitted at the IR lowering level.
- Two types for Geometry shaders were incorrectly treated as not valid
types for the DebugInfo. They are `InputPatch` and `OutputPatch`. This
commit handles them as valid types for DebugInfo.

Resolves #7628
Resolves: #8197
Primary Goals:
1. Add `Access` to pointer
2. AddressSpace::GroupShared support for pointers (SPIR-V)
3. Add `__getAddress()` to replace `&`
* `&` is not updated to `require(cpu)` since slangpy uses `&`. This
means we must: (1) merge PR; (2) replace `&` with `__getAddress()`; (3)
add `require(cpu)` to `&`
Changes:
* Added to `Ptr` the `Access` generic argument & logic (for
`Access::Read`).
* Moved the generic argument `AddressSpace` from `Ptr` to the end of the
type.
* Added pointer casting support between any `Ptr` as long as the
`AddressSpace` is the same
* Disallow globallycoherent T* and coherent T*
* Disallow const T*, T const*, and const T*
* Fixed .natvis display of `ConstantValue` `ValOperandNode`
* Support generic resolution of type-casted integers
* Added `VariablePointer` emitting for spirv + other minor logic needed
for groupshared pointers
Breaking Changes:
* Anyone using the `AddressSpace` of `Ptr` will now have to account for
the `Access` argument
* we disallow various syntax paired with `Ptr` and `T*`

When `SIMPLE` type test is used with `-g[1-3]` option, the filecheck
pattern will most likely to match to the string itself on the embedded
source code rather than match to the emitted spirv-asm code.
This commit avoids the problem by removing the embedded source code.
This commit also provides an option to keep the embedded source code,
`-preserve-embedded-source`.
The source code removal is happening in two steps:
1. iterate all output lines and find SPIRV-ASM in the following pattern:
`%N = OpExtInst %void %M DebugSource %fileId %sourceId`. And then, store
the "%sourceId" value to identify which SPIRV instructions are for the
embedded source code.
2. iterate all output lines again to find the `%sourceId = OpString
"...."` and replace the whole string with the following string, ``` %1 =
OpString "// slang-test removed the embedded source // Use
`-preserve-embedded-source` to keep it explicitly " ```
This change revealed problems in the existing tests:
- tests/bugs/spirv-debug-info.slang : The expected text was missing and
it had to be added. The file also had Carrage-Return character on all
lines and the pre-commit git hook removed them.
- tests/spirv/debug-info.slang : the expected keyword DebugValue had to
change to DebugDeclare, because that's what we get with ToT.
- tests/spirv/debug-value-dynamic-index.slang : This test is currently
failing, and it will pass once DebugLocalVariable instruction missing
for parameter of the entry point function #7693 is resolved.

fixes https://github.com/shader-slang/slang/issues/8271
This PR does the following,
- Fail slang-test when there are VVL error messages.
- VVL error for `gfx-unit-test-tool/` were not captured properly by the
debug callback.
- Set an environment variable,
`VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation`, for CI and
VisualStudio project setup.
- Ignores VVL error about NullHandle is used for the acceleration
structure; a fix is at ToT of VVL and not available from release build
yet.
- Fix VVL error complaining about the varying inputs are not provided
for the tests, `gfx-unit-test-tool/linkTimeTypeLayout.internal` and
`gfx-unit-test-tool/linkTimeTypeLayoutNested.internal`.

(#8223)
The Metal backend was generating incorrect type names for 8-bit vector
types, causing compilation failures when targeting Metal. According to
the Metal specification, 8-bit vector types should be named `charN` and
`ucharN` (e.g., `char2`, `uchar3`) rather than `int8_tN` and `uint8_tN`.
## Problem
When compiling Slang code with 8-bit vector types for Metal, the
compiler would emit:
```metal
uint8_t2 _S8 = uint8_t2(uint8_t(0U), uint8_t(16U));
int8_t3 _S9 = int8_t3(int8_t(0), int8_t(16), int8_t(48));
```
But the Metal compiler expects:
```metal
uchar2 _S8 = uchar2(uint8_t(0U), uint8_t(16U));
char3 _S9 = char3(int8_t(0), int8_t(16), int8_t(48));
```
This caused errors like:
```
error: unknown type name 'uint8_t2'; did you mean 'uint8_t'?
```
## Solution
Modified `MetalSourceEmitter::emitSimpleTypeImpl()` to emit the correct
Metal-specific type names for 8-bit types:
- `kIROp_Int8Type` now emits `char` instead of `int8_t`
- `kIROp_UInt8Type` now emits `uchar` instead of `uint8_t`
This change only affects the Metal backend and ensures that vector types
like `int8_t2`, `uint8_t3`, etc. are correctly emitted as `char2`,
`uchar3`, etc.
## Testing
- Added a new test case `tests/metal/8bit-vector-types.slang` to verify
the fix
- Re-enabled the previously disabled Metal test in
`tests/hlsl-intrinsic/countbits8.slang`
- Updated `tests/metal/byte-address-buffer.slang` to expect the correct
type names
- Verified that existing Metal tests continue to pass
Fixes #8211.

(#7929)
Fixes the Slang compiler internal error "subscript had no getter" when
reading from mesh shader output index arrays (e.g., `triangles[0].x`).
## Problem
The `OutputIndices` struct was missing a `ref` accessor in its
`__subscript` implementation, causing the compiler to fail when trying
to materialize subscript expressions as r-values.
## Solution
Added the missing `ref` accessor to `OutputIndices.__subscript` using
the `kIROp_MeshOutputRef` intrinsic operation, matching the pattern used
in `OutputVertices` and `OutputPrimitives`.
## Files Changed
- `source/slang/core.meta.slang` - Added missing `ref` accessor
- `tests/bugs/gh-7925.slang` - Test case to reproduce and verify the fix
Fixes #7925

`emitReflectionVarLayoutJSON` will output the `userAttribs` section
twice as it gets output by `emitReflectionModifierInfoJSON` first before
being output again by a direct call to `emitUserAttributes`.
It seems the answer here is to just remove the extra explicit call to
`emitUserAttributes` and rely on the call in
`emitReflectionModifierInfoJSON`?

Closes #8112. ~~The issue asks for a "C layout", but in this PR I use
the term "CPU layout" because this naming was pre-existing in the
codebase as `kCPULayoutRulesImpl_`. The primary purpose of this layout
is to match CPU-side struct definitions with the shader side. I'm open
to better naming suggestions, though.~~
Edit: switched back to using `CDataLayout` & `-fvk-use-c-layout`, as the
CPU target depends on the object layout rules of existing CPU layout
rules, but they're incompatible with actual shaders. So a new
`kCLayoutRulesImpl_` was needed anyway.

-Adds semantic SV_VulkanSamplePosition that emits corresponding
gl_SamplePosition and SpvBuiltinSamplePosition
-Adds gl_SamplePosition property to glsl.meta.slang
-Adds SPIRV and GLSL tests for the semantic and property
-Plan is to later implement SV_SamplePosition that follows HLSL range of
-0.5 to +0.5,
and emits GetRenderTargetSamplePosition(SV_SampleIndex) which needs more
complicated IR manipulation for HLSL and Metal

Fixes #8185. The previous implementation is incorrect and basically only
works in the `x = 0` case. `delta` was the smallest possible positive
value representable as a float, but that's below the rounding error of
addition with almost all reasonably sized floats.
This fixed implementation is based on bit twiddling instead. I've
checked the float case against the C++ `nextafterf` with both a -inf ->
inf and inf -> -inf sweep, in addition to the test included in this PR.
