The particle renderer uses the palette texture in the vertex shader, so
updating the palette needs the vertex shader stage included in the
barrier, but I imagine not all texture updates will need it, so add a
parameter to Vulkan_UpdateTex to select inclusion.
Recent nvidia drivers now crash with more than 17 views when building
pipelines. Still no idea if it's me or the drivers. However, I really
need to come up with a way to use the render graph render passes as a
template so things aren't so hard-coded.
The syntax is not at all correct at this stage (really, just a copy of
Ruamoko), but the keyword table exists (in the wrong place) and the
additional basic types (bool, bvecN and (d)matNxM) have been added.
Boolean base type is currently just int, and matrices have 0 width while
I think about what to use, but finally some progress after several
months' hiatus.
It's disabled by default because it's a runtime thing and I'm not sure I
want to keep it enabled, but it did find some issues (which I've cleaned
up), although it didn't find the problem I was looking for :P
This allows the dags code to optimize the return values, and when I make
the node killing by function calls less aggressive, should make for many
more potential CSE optimizations.
Offset casts are used heavily in geometric algebra, but doing an offset
cast on a dereferenced pointer (array index) doesn't work well for
assignments. Fixes yet another bug in my test scene :)
This takes care of ptrmove instructions, fixing the printf problem in
ptrstructinit. It might even make it possible to not break basic blocks
on function calls, which should make for some more optimization
opportunities, but that can come later.
For this to work properly, it was necessary to avoid converting alias
defs to st_alias nodes.
It also fixes ptrstructinit itself (at first, I hadn't noticed that the
test passed entirely).
It turns out the bug I was chasing in set_poses was not the data getting
lost or incorrect data being read, but the arguments to printf being set
from the parent pose `p` before `p` had actually been set.
This gets rid of the funny little self-loop edge in dags dot files that
has bothered me for a while. It was just because the node to which an
identifier was attached happened to be the parent of the identifier's
leaf node.
The fix in bdafdad0d5 for
`while (count--)` never did appeal to me. I think I understood the core
problem at the time, but I hadn't figured out how to use a var's
use/define sets to detect the write-before-read. Using them allows the
special handling for flow control to be removed, making things more
robust. The function call handling has been superfluous since the
Ruamoko instruction set required the auxiliary operands on the call
statements.
Not by much really, but using one "aux" count instead of different
types, and using functions to iterate through the statement's aux
operands makes the code easier to read.
Two birds with one stone: eliminates most of the problems with going
const-correct with expr_t, and it make dealing with internally generated
expressions at random locations much easier as the set source location
affects all new expressions created within that scope, to any depth.
Debug output is much easier to read now.
Handle type encodings aren't actually compatible with basic type
encodings as their width is always one and thus the tag field collides
with the basic type encoding's width field.
ptrmove was not treating its indirect source operand as used because the
pointer wasn't checked for its source.
This fixes part of ptrstructinit, but there's a lot more breakage in
that test: it looks like all sorts of fun with arrays.
There were a few places where some const-casts were needed, but they're
localized to code that's supposed to manipulate types (but I do want to
come up with something to clean that up).
When I implemented the st_alias handing (d8a78fc849) I was
unsure if I needed to unalias aliased defs too, but it turns out to have
been necessary: this is what caused my 2d PGA dynamics test to blow up
strangely due to the GA vector loaded from an array into a local
variable getting the local var replaced by a temp but the var itself
being read later in the code (uninitialized variable due to incorrect
optimization... oops).
When sum_expr gets a null expression as one of its args, it simply
returns the other arg, but that arg needs to have the correct type
applied.
