Implement VOTE using Nvidia's intrinsics. Documentation about these can
be found here
https://developer.nvidia.com/reading-between-threads-shader-intrinsics
Instead of using portable ARB instructions I opted to use Nvidia
intrinsics because these are the closest we have to how Tegra X1
hardware renders.
To stub VOTE on non-Nvidia drivers (including nouveau) this commit
simulates a GPU with a warp size of one, returning what is meaningful
for the instruction being emulated:
* anyThreadNV(value) -> value
* allThreadsNV(value) -> value
* allThreadsEqualNV(value) -> true
ballotARB, also known as "uint64_t(activeThreadsNV())", emits
VOTE.ANY Rd, PT, PT;
on nouveau's compiler. This doesn't match exactly to Nvidia's code
VOTE.ALL Rd, PT, PT;
Which is emulated with activeThreadsNV() by this commit. In theory this
shouldn't really matter since .ANY, .ALL and .EQ affect the predicates
(set to PT on those cases) and not the registers.
This commit implements gl_ViewportIndex and gl_Layer in vertex and
geometry shaders. In the case it's used in a vertex shader, it requires
ARB_shader_viewport_layer_array. This extension is available on AMD and
Nvidia devices (mesa and proprietary drivers), but not available on
Intel on any platform. At the moment of writing this description I don't
know if this is a hardware limitation or a driver limitation.
In the case that ARB_shader_viewport_layer_array is not available,
writes to these registers on a vertex shader are ignored, with the
appropriate logging.
Instead of passing by copy an execution context through out the whole
Vulkan call hierarchy, use a command buffer view and fence view
approach.
This internally dereferences the command buffer or fence forcing the
user to be unable to use an outdated version of it on normal usage.
It is still possible to keep store an outdated if it is casted to
VKFence& or vk::CommandBuffer.
While changing this file, add an extra parameter for Flush and Finish to
allow releasing the fence from this calls.
Hardware testing revealed that SSY and PBK push to a different stack,
allowing code like this:
SSY label1;
PBK label2;
SYNC;
label1: PBK;
label2: EXIT;
Instead of having a vector of unique_ptr stored in a vector and
returning star pointers to this, use shared_ptr. While changing
initialization code, move it to a separate file when possible.
This is a first step to allow code analysis and node generation beyond
the ShaderIR class.
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.
Keeps track of native ASTC support, VK_EXT_scalar_block_layout
availability and SSBO range.
Check for independentBlend and vertexPipelineStorageAndAtomics as a
required feature. Always enable it.
Use vk::to_string format to log Vulkan enums.
Style changes.
flushing is now responsability of children caches instead of the cache
object. This change will allow the specific cache to pass extra
parameters on flushing and will allow more flexibility.
Operations done before the main half float operation (like HAdd) were
managing a packed value instead of the unpacked one. Adding an unpacked
operation allows us to drop the per-operand MetaHalfArithmetic entry,
simplifying the code overall.
