- Add new queries: TProgram::getUniformTType and getUniformBlockTType,
which return a const TType*, or nullptr on a bad index. These are valid for
any source language.
- Interface name for HLSL cbuffers is taken from the (only) available declaration name,
whereas before it was always an empty string, which caused some troubles with reflection
mapping them all to the same index slot. This also makes it appear in the SPIR-V binary
instead of an empty string.
- Print the binding as part of the reflection textual dump.
- TType::clone becomes const. Needed to call it from a const method, and anyway it doesn't
change the object it's called on.
- Because the TObjectReflection constructor is called with a TType *reference* (not pointer)
so that it's guaranteed to pass in a type, and the "badReflection" value should use a nullptr
there, that now has a dedicated static method to obtain the bad value. It uses a private
constructor, so external users can't create one with a nullptr type.
Previously the uniform array flattening feature would trigger on loose
uniform arrays of any basic type (e.g, floats). This PR restricts it
to sampler and texture arrays. Other arrays would end up in their own
uniform block (anonymous or otherwise). (Atomic counter arrays might be an
exception, but those are not currently flattened).
In HLSL array sizes need not be provided explicitly in all circumstances.
For example, this is valid (note no number between the [ ]):
// no explicit array size
uniform float g_array[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
This PR does not attempt to validate most invalid cases.
A new test is added to verify the resulting linker objects.
Fix for two defects as follows:
- The IO mapping traverser was not setting inVisit, and would skip some AST nodes.
Depending on the order of nodes, this could have prevented the binding from
showing up in the generated SPIR-V.
- If a uniform array was flattened, each of the flattened scalars from the array
is still a (now-scalar) uniform. It was being converted to a temporary.
This checkin adds a --flatten-uniform-arrays option which can break
uniform arrays of samplers, textures, or UBOs up into individual
scalars named (e.g) myarray[0], myarray[1], etc. These appear as
individual linkage objects.
Code notes:
- shouldFlatten internally calls shouldFlattenIO, and shouldFlattenUniform,
but is the only flattening query directly called.
- flattenVariable will handle structs or arrays (but not yet arrayed structs;
this is tested an an error is generated).
- There's some error checking around unhandled situations. E.g, flattening
uniform arrays with initializer lists is not implemented.
- This piggybacks on as much of the existing mechanism for struct flattening
as it can. E.g, it uses the same flattenMap, and the same
flattenAccess() method.
- handleAssign() has been generalized to cope with either structs or arrays.
- Extended test infrastructure to test flattening ability.
Code using atEndOfFile was dead, instead do something useful with
the scanners atEndOfInput(). This allows a better error message
for early termination of cascading errors.
