From b415760d7f166eaad7fa27daa09edc9a8964c37e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Foley Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2020 17:36:32 -0800 Subject: Initial steps on GPU printing example (#1197) * Initial steps on GPU printing example This change is checkpointing work on a new Slang example that shows how a "GPU `printf()`" can be implemented almost entirely in user space thanks to a combination of Slang language and API features. The example is not perfect as it stands today due to limitations in our current handling of hashed string literals: * At call sites where a string literal is passed, we currently have to explicitly invoke `getStringHash()` to get the hash code, because we don't currently support `String` as a function argument/parameter type. * On the implementation side, because strings are passed as their `int` hash codes, we can't tell them apart from ordinary `int` arguments. The current code handles this by assuming an `int` is *always* a hashed string, which obviously isn't appropriate. There are plenty of other limitations in the implementation presented, but the above are the two main things I'd like to address in follow-up work. I would like to checkpoint this work on the application first, in order to keep work on the Slang implementation and the example as separate as possible. * typo --- examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters | 32 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 32 insertions(+) create mode 100644 examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters (limited to 'examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters') diff --git a/examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters b/examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters new file mode 100644 index 000000000..c539443c3 --- /dev/null +++ b/examples/gpu-printing/gpu-printing.vcxproj.filters @@ -0,0 +1,32 @@ + + + + + {E9C7FDCE-D52A-8D73-7EB0-C5296AF258F6} + + + + + Source Files + + + Source Files + + + + + Source Files + + + Source Files + + + + + Source Files + + + Source Files + + + \ No newline at end of file -- cgit v1.2.3
