Reimplement the buffer cache using cached bindings and page level
granularity for modification tracking. This also drops the usage of
shared pointers and virtual functions from the cache.
- Bindings are cached, allowing to skip work when the game changes few
bits between draws.
- OpenGL Assembly shaders no longer copy when a region has been modified
from the GPU to emulate constant buffers, instead GL_EXT_memory_object
is used to alias sub-buffers within the same allocation.
- OpenGL Assembly shaders stream constant buffer data using
glProgramBufferParametersIuivNV, from NV_parameter_buffer_object. In
theory this should save one hash table resolve inside the driver
compared to glBufferSubData.
- A new OpenGL stream buffer is implemented based on fences for drivers
that are not Nvidia's proprietary, due to their low performance on
partial glBufferSubData calls synchronized with 3D rendering (that
some games use a lot).
- Most optimizations are shared between APIs now, allowing Vulkan to
cache more bindings than before, skipping unnecesarry work.
This commit adds the necessary infrastructure to use Vulkan object from
OpenGL. Overall, it improves performance and fixes some bugs present on
the old cache. There are still some edge cases hit by some games that
harm performance on some vendors, this are planned to be fixed in later
commits.
The "VK" prefix predates the "Vulkan" namespace. It was carried around
the codebase for consistency. "VKDevice" currently is a bad alias with
"VkDevice" (only an upcase character of difference) that can cause
confusion. Rename all instances of it.
The current texture cache has several points that hurt maintainability
and performance. It's easy to break unrelated parts of the cache
when doing minor changes. The cache can easily forget valuable
information about the cached textures by CPU writes or simply by its
normal usage.The current texture cache has several points that hurt

This commit aims to address those issues.
Migrates the video core code closer to enabling variable shadowing
warnings as errors.
This primarily sorts out shadowing occurrences within the Vulkan code.
Force early fragment tests when the 3D method is enabled.
The established pipeline cache takes care of recompiling if needed.
This is implemented only on Vulkan to avoid invalidating the shader
cache on OpenGL.
Constant attributes (in OpenGL known disabled attributes) are not
supported on Vulkan, even with extensions. To emulate this behavior we
return zero on reads from disabled vertex attributes in shader code.
This has no caching cost because attribute formats are not dynamic state
on Vulkan and we have to store it in the pipeline cache anyway.
- Fixes Animal Crossing: New Horizons terrain borders
Reduces some header churn and reduces rebuilds when some header
internals change.
While we're at it we can also resolve a missing include in buffer_cache.
Some games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild assign
render targets without writing them from the fragment shader. This
generates Vulkan validation errors, so silence these I previously
introduced a commit to set "vec4(0, 0, 0, 1)" for these attachments. The
problem is that this is not what games expect. This commit reverts that
change.
Some games write from fragment shaders to an unexistant framebuffer
attachment or they don't write to one when it exists in the framebuffer.
Fix this by skipping writes or adding zeroes.
Update Sirit and its usage in vk_shader_decompiler. Highlights:
- Implement tessellation shaders
- Implement geometry shaders
- Implement some missing features
- Use native half float instructions when available.
Fix missing OpSelectionMerge instruction. This caused devices loses on
most hardware, Intel didn't care.
Fix [-1;1] -> [0;1] depth conversions.
Conditionally use VK_EXT_scalar_block_layout. This allows us to use
non-std140 layouts on UBOs.
Update external Vulkan headers.
