namespace Slang
{

// Our goal in this file is to convert a module in the Slang IR over to an
// equivalent module in the SPIR-V intermediate language.
//
// The Slang IR is (intentionally) similar to SPIR-V in many ways, and both
// can represent shaders at similar levels of abstraction, so much of the
// translation involves one-to-one translation of Slang IR instructions
// to their SPIR-V equivalents.
//
// SPIR-V differs from Slang IR in some key ways, and the SPIR-V
// specification places many restrictions on how the IR can be encoded.
// In some cases we will rely on earlier IR passes to convert Slang IR
// into a form closer to what SPIR-V expects (e.g., by moving all
// varying entry point parameters to global scope), but other differences
// will be handled during the translation process.
//
// The logic in this file relies on the formal [SPIR-V Specification].
// When we are making use of or enforcing some property from the spec,
// we will try to refer to the relevant section in comments.
//
// [SPIR-V Specification]: https://www.khronos.org/registry/spir-v/specs/unified1/SPIRV.html

// [2.3: Physical Layout of a SPIR-V Module and Instruction]
//
// > A SPIR-V module is a single linear stream of words.


// [2.3: Physical Layout of a SPIR-V Module and Instruction]
//
// > All remaining words are a linear sequence of instructions.
// > Each instruction is a stream of words
//
// After a fixed-size header, the contents of a SPIR-V module
// is just a flat sequence of instructions, each of which is
// just a sequence of words.
//
// In principle we could try to emit instructions directly
// in one pass as a stream of words, but there are additional
// constraints placed by the SPIR-V encoding that would make
// a single-pass strategy very hard, so we don't attempt it.
//
// [2.4 Logical Layout of a Module]
//
// SPIR-V imposes some global ordering constraints on instructions,
// such that certain instructions must come before or after others.
// For example, all `OpCapability` instructions must come before any
// `OpEntryPoint` instructions.
//
// While the SPIR-V spec doesn't use such a term, we will take
// the enumeration of the ordering in Section 2.4 and use it to
// define a list of *logical sections* that make up a SPIR-V module.

    /// Logical sections of a SPIR-V module.
enum class SpvLogicalSectionID
{
    Capabilities,
    Extensions,
    ExtIntInstImports,
    MemoryModel,
    EntryPoints,
    ExecutionModes,
    DebugStringsAndSource,
    DebugNames,
    Annotations,
    Types,
    Constants,
    GlobalVariables,
    FunctionDeclarations,
    FunctionDefinitions,

    Count,
};

// While the SPIR-V module is nominally (according to the spec) just
// a flat sequence of instructions, in practice some of the instructions
// are logically in a parent/child relationship.
//
// In particular, functions "own" the instructions between an `OpFunction`
// and the matching `OpFunctionEnd`. We can also think of basic
// blocks within a function as owning the instructions between
// an `OpLabel` (which represents the bloc) and the next label
// or the end of the function.
//
// Furthermore, the common case is SPIR-V is that an instruction
// that defines some value must appear before any instruction
// that uses that value as an operand. This property is often true
// in a Slang IR module, but isn't strictly enforced for things at
// the global scope.
//
// To deal with the above issues, our strategy will be to emit
// SPIR-V instructions into a lightweight intermediate structure
// that simplifies dealing with ordering constraiints on
// instructions.
//
// We will start by forward-declaring the type we will
// use to represent instructions:
//
struct SpvInst;

// Next, we will define a base type that can serve as a parent
// to SPIR-V instructions. Both the logical sections defined
// earlier and instructions such as functions will be used
// as parents.

    ///
