* Handle debug-layer messages in a separate channel
The Problem (Issue #7343)
The issue was that Vulkan Validation Layer error messages were being mixed into regular test output, causing
potential false positives or negatives. When using -enable-debug-layers true, validation messages would appear in
the same output stream as test results, potentially matching //CHECK: patterns incorrectly.
Example Problem:
- Test expects: //CHECK: 1
- Validation layer prints: VALIDATION ERROR: 1 invalid buffer binding
- Test incorrectly matches the "1" in the error message instead of the actual output
Slang Test Communication Architecture
Execution Modes
Slang has 3 different execution modes controlled by SpawnType:
enum class SpawnType {
UseSharedLibrary, // In-process execution
UseTestServer, // Out-of-process via persistent server
UseFullyIsolatedTestServer, // Out-of-process via isolated server
UseExe // Direct executable spawn
}
1. In-Process Mode (UseSharedLibrary)

│ └───► StdWriters ◄──┘ │
│ (shared) │
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
- Communication: Direct function calls, shared memory
- Debug callbacks: Single callback instance in StdWriters
- Used when: Default mode for most tests

- Communication: JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout pipes
- Debug callbacks: Separate instances in each process
- Used when: CI/CD, multi-threaded testing, crash isolation
3. Direct Executable Mode (UseExe)
┌──────────────────┐ pipes ┌──────────────────┐

└──────────────────┘ └──────────────────┘
- Communication: Standard process pipes (stdout/stderr)
- Debug callbacks: None (external executables)
- Used when: Testing external tools
Communication Mechanisms Deep Dive
JSON-RPC Protocol Over Pipes
The test-server.exe communicates with slang-test using JSON-RPC over stdin/stdout pipes:
// Parent process (slang-test) creates child with pipes
Process* testServerProcess = /* spawn test-server.exe */;
// JSONRPCConnection wraps the pipe communication
JSONRPCConnection connection;
connection.initWithStdStreams(); // Uses stdin/stdout pipes
// Send RPC call
TestServerProtocol::ExecutionResult result;
connection.sendCall("executeTool", &args, &result);
Key Point: The pipes carry structured JSON messages, not raw stdout/stderr. This is what enables clean separation
of different data channels.
Protocol Structure
Your changes extend the ExecutionResult protocol:
struct ExecutionResult {
String stdOut; // Regular program output
String stdError; // Error messages
String debugLayer; // NEW: Debug/validation messages
int32_t result;
int32_t returnCode;
};
Your Debug Layer Solution
The Challenge
Memory pointers cannot cross process boundaries. A debugCallback pointer in the parent process is meaningless in
the child process.
The Solution: String-Based Serialization
You solved this by using string capture and serialization:
1. Debug Callback Interface (slang-std-writers.h)
class IDebugCallback {
virtual void handleMessage(
DebugMessageType type,
DebugMessageSource source,
const char* message) = 0;
};
2. String-Capturing Implementation (slang-support.h)
class CoreDebugCallback : public Slang::IDebugCallback {
StringBuilder m_buf; // Captures messages as strings
void handleMessage(DebugMessageType type, DebugMessageSource source, const char* message) {
if (type == DebugMessageType::Error) {
m_buf << message << '\n'; // Serialize to string
}
}
String getString() { return m_buf.toString(); } // Extract accumulated messages
};
3. Bridge Between RHI and Core (slang-support.h)
class CoreToRHIDebugBridge : public rhi::IDebugCallback {
Slang::IDebugCallback* m_coreCallback;
void handleMessage(rhi::DebugMessageType type, rhi::DebugMessageSource source, const char* message) {
// Convert RHI types to core types and forward
m_coreCallback->handleMessage(convertType(type), convertSource(source), message);
}
};
Data Flow: Debug Messages End-to-End
In-Process Mode Flow
GPU Driver → RHI Debug Callback → Core Debug Callback → String Buffer → Test Output
Out-of-Process Mode Flow
Child Process:
GPU Driver → RHI Debug Callback → Core Debug Callback → String Buffer
↓
Parent Process: JSON-RPC Serialization
Test Output ← String Processing ← ExecutionResult.debugLayer ←┘
Step-by-Step Example
1. Test Execution Starts
// In test-server process
CoreDebugCallback debugCallback;
CoreToRHIDebugBridge bridge;
bridge.setCoreCallback(&debugCallback);
// Set up graphics device with debug layers
deviceDesc.debugCallback = &bridge;
2. Graphics API Call Triggers Validation Error
// Inside Vulkan driver (external code)
// Validation layer detects error and calls our callback
bridge.handleMessage(RHI_ERROR, RHI_LAYER, "Invalid buffer binding");
3. Message Capture
// In CoreDebugCallback::handleMessage
m_buf << "Invalid buffer binding\n"; // Stored in string buffer
4. Test Completion & Serialization
// Back in test-server
TestServerProtocol::ExecutionResult result;
result.debugLayer = debugCallback.getString(); // "Invalid buffer binding\n"
result.stdOut = "1"; // Regular test output
// Send via JSON-RPC
connection.sendResult(&result);
5. Parent Process Receives & Separates Output
// In slang-test process
String output = buildTestOutput(result);
// Results in clean separation:
// standard output = {
// 1
// }
// debug layer = {
// Invalid buffer binding
// }
Why This Solution Works
1. Process Isolation: Each process has its own callback objects, no shared pointers
2. String Serialization: Debug messages converted to strings that can cross process boundaries
3. Protocol Extension: Uses existing JSON-RPC infrastructure, just adds new field
4. Clean Separation: Debug messages never mix with stdout/stderr
5. Backward Compatibility: Existing tests unaffected, debug layer field optional
Key Benefits
- Eliminates False Positives: Debug messages can't interfere with //CHECK: patterns
- Better Debugging: Debug messages clearly separated and labeled
- Robust Architecture: Works across all execution modes
- Minimal Changes: Leverages existing communication infrastructure
This elegant solution transforms a fundamental cross-process communication challenge into a simple string
serialization problem, using the existing test server architecture to cleanly separate validation layer messages
from test results.

* Update Slang-RHI and enable any debug layers up-front
As [1] shows, creating a D3D12 device and then enabling debug layers causes future device
creation to fail.
That means enabling debug layers is a process-wide decision that should be done at
startup, and not just before creating an individual device.
Previously, Slang-RHI enabled debug layers as part of device creation.
The new Slang-RHI revision doesn't do that anymore, but instead allows the user to enable
debug layers earlier, with a separate API.
This change calls the mentioned API before creating any device.
This closes #6172.

* Move the file public header files to `include` dir
Close the issue (#4635).
Move the following headers files to a `include` dir
located at root dir of slang repo:
slang-com-helper.h -> include/slang-com-helper.h
slang-com-ptr.h -> include/slang-com-ptr.h
slang-gfx.h -> include/slang-gfx.h
slang.h -> include/slang.h
Change cmake/SlangTarget.cmake to add include path to
every target, and change the source file to use
"#include <slang.h>" to include the public headers.
The source code update is by the script like follow:
```
fileNames_slang=$(grep -r "\".*slang\.h\"" source/ -l)
for fileName in "${fileNames_slang[@]}"
do
echo "$fileName"
sed -i "s/\".*slang\.h\"/\"slang\.h\"/" $fileName
done
```
* Fix the test issues
* Fix cpu test issues by adding include seach path
* Update cmake to not add include path for every target
Also change "#include <slang.h>" to "include "slang.h" " to
make the coding style consistent with other slang code.
* Change public include to private include for unit-test and slang-glslang

* Various Fixes to gfx, reflection and emit.
- Fix GLSL emit to properly output `*bitsTo*` functions for `IRBitCast` insts.
- Add line directive mode setting for `ISession`.
- Extend `TypeLayout::getElementStride` to handle `VectorType` case.
- Fix `IDevice::readBufferResource` 's D3D12 implementation to copy only the requested bytes out.
- Fix `render-test` to use the `ISession` from `gfx` instead of creating its own `ISession` to make sure `gfx` and `render-test` agree on WitnessTable and RTTI IDs.
- Extend `render-test` to support filling vector and matrix values in the new `set x = ...` TEST_INPUT syntax.
- Add a `dynamic-dispatch-15` test case to make sure packing / unpacking works correctly across all targets, and to make sure render-test's RTTI/WitnessTable ID filling logic is correct for non-trivial cases.
* Remove default-major test
* Fix cyclic reference in `ExtendedTypeLayout`.
* Move `lineDirectiveMode` setting to `TargetDesc`.
Add `structureSize` to `TargetDesc` and `SessionDesc` for future binary compatibility.
* Cleanup.

* Reimplement Vulkan shader objects.
This change reimplements Vulkan shader objects in the `gfx` layer so that it is no longer layered on top of the `DescriptorSet` abstraction. Since this is the last implementation that uses `DescriptorSet`, the change also removes all `DescriptorSet` related API from public `gfx` interface.
The Vulkan implementation now passes all test cases, but it still have two issues:
1. The PushConstant setting is not correct, this is because we don't seem to be able to get correct reflection data about the size of push constants for an entry-point.
2. The `shader-toy` example can't run on Vulkan, because it currently sets nullptr to `Texture` bindings, and this change doesn't properly handle setting resource to null in `ShaderObject`s yet. If we can use the `nullDescriptor` feature on vulkan, this implementation will be simple. However we still want to decide whether we want to use a Vulkan 1.2 feature for this.

* Initial work to support OptiX output for ray tracing shaders
This change represents in-progress work toward allowing Slang/HLSL ray-tracing shaders to be cross-compiled for execution on top of OptiX. The work as it exists here is incomplete, but the changes are incremental and should not disturb existing supported use cases.
One major unresolved issue in this work is that the OptiX SDK does not appear to set an environment variable
Changes include:
* Modified the premake script to support new options for adding OptiX to the build. Right now the default path to the OptiX SDK is hard-coded because the installer doesn't seem to set an environment variable. We will want to update that to have a reasonable default path for both Windows and Unix-y platforms in a later chance.
* I ran the premake generator on the project since I added new options, which resulted in a bunch of diffs to the Visual Studio project files that are unrelated to this change. Many of the diffs come from previous edits that added files using only the Visual Studio IDE rather than by re-running premake, so it is arguably better to have the checked-in project files more accurately reflect the generated files used for CI builds.
* The "downstream compiler" abstraction was extended to have an explicit notion of the kind of pipeline that shaders are being compiled for (e.g., compute vs. rasterization vs. ray tracing). This option is used to tell the NVRTC case when it needs to include the OptiX SDK headers in the search path for shader compilation (and also when it should add a `#define` to make the prelude pull in OptiX). This code again uses a hard-coded default path for the OptiX SDK; we will need to modify that to have a better discovery approach and also to support an API or command-line override.
* One note for the future is that instead of passing down a "pipeline type" we could instead pass down the list/set of stages for the kernels being compiled, and the OptiX support could be enabled whenever there is *any* ray tracing entry point present in a module. That approach would allow mixing RT and compute kernels during downstream compilation. We will need to revisit these choices when we start supporting code generation for multiple entry points at a time.
* The CUDA emit logic is currently mostly unchanged. The biggest difference is that when emitting a ray-tracing entry point we prefix the name of the generated `__global__` function with a marker for its stage type, as required by the OptiX runtime (e.g., a `__raygen__` prefix is required on all ray-generation entry points).
* The `Renderer` abstraction had a bare minimum of changes made to be able to understand that ray-tracing pipelines exist, and also that some APIs will require the name of each entry point along with its binary data in order to create a program.
* The `ShaderCompileRequest` type was updated so that only a single "source" is supported (rather than distinct source for each entry point), and also the entry points have been turned into a single list where each entry identifies its stage instead of a fixed list of fields for the supported entry-point types.
* The CUDA compute path had a lot of code added to support execution for the new ray-tracing pipeline type. The logic is mostly derived from the `optixHello` example in the OptiX SDK, and at present only supports running a single ray-generation shader with no parameters. The code here is not intended to be ready for use, but represents a signficiant amount of learning-by-doing.
* The `slang-support.cpp` file in `render-test` was updated so that instead of having separate compilation logic for compute vs. rasterization shaders (which would mean adding a third path for ray tracing), there is now a single flow to the code that works for all pipeline types and any kind of entry points.
* Implicit in the new code is dropping support for the way GLSL was being compiled for pass-through render tests, which means pass-through GLSL render tests will no longer work. It seems like we didn't have any of those to begin with, though, so it is no great loss.
* Also implicit are some new invariants about how shaders without known/default entry points need to be handled. For example, the ray tracing case intentionally does not fill in entry points on the `ShaderCompileRequest` and instead fully relies on the Slang compiler's support for discovering and enumerating entry points via reflection. As a consequence of those edits the `-no-default-entry-point` flag on `render-test` is probably not working, but it seems like we don't have any test cases that use that flag anyway.
Given the seemingly breaking changes in those last two bullets, I was surprised to find that all our current tests seem to pass with this change. If there are things that I'm missing, I hope they will come up in review.
* fixup: issues from review and CI
* Some issues noted during the review process (e.g., a missing `break`)
* Fix logic for render tests with `-no-default-entry-point`. I had somehow missed that we had tests reliant on that flag. This required a bit of refactoring to pass down the relevant flag (luckily the function in question was already being passed most of what was in `Options`, so that just passing that in directly actually simplifies the call sites a bit.
* There was a missing line of code to actually add the default compute entry points to the compile request. I think this was a problem that slipped in as part of some pre-PR refactoring/cleanup changes that I failed to re-test.

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.

* Make render-test use Slang for all shader compilation
This streamlines the code for render-test by having all its shader compilation go through the Slang API, so that it doesn't have to deal with custom logic to compile HLSL->DXBC and HLSL->DXIL. We were already leaning on Slang to generate SPIR-V for Vulkan, so this makes all the paths more consistent.
My original plan with this change was to make the D3D12 render path start using DXIL at this point, since the change would make that easy, but it turns out that some aspects of how we handle parameter binding are not compatible with that right now, so it would need to come as a later change.
There's a lot of details here, so I will try to walk through the changes, including the incidental ones:
* Add logic to `premake5.lua` so that we copy the necessary libraries for HLSL shader compilation to our target directory from the Windows SDK. This is necessary so that our tests can actually invoke `dxcompiler.dll`
* Re-run Premake to generate new project files. This moves around a few files that I manually added in previous changes without re-running Premake.
* When invoking `fxc` as a pass-through compiler, be sure to pass along any macros defines via API or command-line. This isn't a strictly required change with how things worked out, but it is a positive one anyway, because it makes `slangc -pass-through fxc` more useful.
* Don't print output from a downstream `fxc` invocation if it produces warnings but no errors. The main reason for this is so that our tests don't fail because of `fxc` warnings on Slang's output (which then don't match the baselines), but it can also be rationalized as not wanting to confuse users with warnings that don't come from the "real" compiler they are using. This probably needs fine-tuning as a policy.
* Add the HLSL `NonUniformResourceIndex` function. This was an oversight because it isn't documented as a builtin on MSDN, and only gets mentioned obliquely when they talk about resource indexing.
* Add `glsl_<version>` profiles to match our `sm_<version>` profiles, so that it is easy for a user to use the profile mechanism to request a specific GLSL version without also specifying a stage name.
* Update the render-test logic so that there is a single `ShaderCompiler` implementation that *always* uses Slang, and get rid of all of the renderer-specific `ShaderCompiler` implementations.
* Update logic in render-test `main.cpp` to select the options to use for the eventual Slang compile based on the choice of renderer and input language. I didn't change the options that render-test exposes, even though they are getting increasingly silly (e.g., `-glsl-rewrite` doesn't use GLSL as its input...).
* Note: the D3D12 renderer will still use fxc, DXBC, and SM 5.0 for now, since trying to update it to switch to dxc, DXIL, and SM 6.0 didn't work well at the time.
* Add a bit of supporting D3D12 code to make sure that we don't allocate a structured buffer when a buffer has a format.
* Make sure to *also* define the `__HLSL__` macro when compiling Slang code, because otherwise a bunch of tests don't work (I'm not clear on how it worked before...).
* fixup: missing file

This is a large change that contains many pieces:
- Update the `cross-compile0` test to actually make use of cross compilation.
Now the `cross-compile0.hlsl` file contains both HLSL and GLSL source code, and then imports code from `cross-compile0.slang`, which provides a "library" (one function) that can be shared between both the HLSL and GLSL version of things.
- Fixed a bug in the support for backslash-escaped newlines.
- Added a new `__import` declaration type (replaces the `using` directive that was still around in a vestigial form)
An `__import` causes the compiler to look for a Slang source file (currently using the ordinary `#include` lookup logic), and then parse/check the found file as an additional module ("translation unit"), before making its declarations visible in the current scope.
- Refactored the main compilation flow to be simpler. There were the `ShaderCompiler` and `ShaderCompilerImpl` classes that weren't relaly doing anything, but added complexity to the whole workflow.
- The `render-test` application has been heavily modified to better support testing cross-compilation workflows. At the most basic level we are starting to distinguish pass-through vs. rewriter workflows, and are passing various `#define`s down to the compiler(s) to let the source code be customized as needed for each case.
Several annoying corner cases are caused here by having to support the GLSL compilation model, which really wants each entry point in its own specific translation unit, whereas we really want to keep things nicely contained in single files.
- Added support for `__intrinsic` operations to have target-specific behavior.
This allows a function to be given a different name for some specific target (so a call gets emitted as a call to that other operation).
More generally, the library writer can put together an arbitrary format string that will be used in place of expressions that call the given function, e.g.:
__intrinsic(hlsl, "$1 - $0") __intrinsic int foo(int a, int b);
Given this declaration, a call like `foo(x,y)` will code generate as `x - y` for HLSL, and as `foo(x,y)` for all other targets.
Annoying things still to be dealt with:
- The way that I'm filtering the user-provided options when passing things down to the compilation of dynamically loaded modules is a bit ad hoc. It would be good to have a systematic notion of which options will be inherited and which won't. There is also more code duplication than I'd like, so we risk having the compiler behave differently when compiling a file at the top level, vs. because of `__import`.
- Adding target-specific behavior to intrinsics is all well and good, but the current approach means we can only add this to the original declaration, which limits the ability to easily extend the set of targets.
A better approach long-term would be to add a more robust notion of target-based overload resolution (which would happen after semantic checking). Then one mechanism would be used to find the right target-specific overload to use for an operation, and then each (target-specific) definition could use a simpler attribute to intercept code-generation behavior.
Note that we might eventually need a similar notion to deal with stage- or profile-specific functions and the overloading behavior around them, so using this for intrinsics doesn't seem like a bad idea.
