* This shifts from reporting from the old style bindset/bind to the new system
of only referencing by shader interface and index (independent of binding
model).
* The vulkan shader debugger re-uses the replay interface to cache descriptor
access and descriptor contents in a fashion friendly to interface-index
lookup.
Output "ViewIndex" into the pixel shader hits array
Select the pixel shader input which matches the viewIndex to the passed in view
Ignore the view parameter if set to ~0U (rd.ReplayController.NoPreference)
Ignore the view parameter if any subpass has empty multiviews
DebugShaderInputs struct contains existing the parameters:
sample
primitive
and a new parameter
view
Default constructor for DebugShaderInputs sets the parameters to NoPreference (~0U).
* This is a deliberate break of compatibility since the field is now often
empty, for non-markers. This means code will get a more explicit error when
the name is being referenced, so it can be updated to fetch the name it needs
as needed.
* There's not a good accepted terminology for this kind of event, and for
historical reasons 'drawcall' has been the accepted term, even though
that can be quite confusing when a dispatch or a copy is a 'drawcall'.
* This is particularly highlighted by the event browser filters where
$draw() includes draws and dispatches, but $dispatch() only includes
dispatches, it's hard to intuitively understand why $draw() matches all
of these calls.
* As a result we've defined the term 'action' to cover these types of
events in the same way that we defined 'event' in the first place to
mean a single atomic API call.
* These map more naturally to python tuples and are easier to wrap in and out.
* We also tidy up the FloatVecVal etc and standardise the members of
ShaderValue.
* E.g. on D3D12 we can debug DXBC shaders but not DXIL shaders. On vulkan this
will allow us to have the UI work better when encountering shaders with
unsupported capabilities or extensions.
* We instead always have 3rdparty/ in the relevant include search paths and rely
on that. Each library still has its own unique base dir within 3rdparty to
clarify where the include is coming from.
* The ShaderDebugTrace now only sets up the initial state of an opaque
ShaderDebugger handle.
* This handle can then be passed to a new function - ContinueDebug - to
iteratively return N more states. The number of states is implementation
defined and may be a fixed number or it may run for a fixed time.
* The states themselves no longer contain a complete snapshot of all variables,
but instead only the changed variables for that iteration. The changes are
stored as before and after value to make it easier to step forwards and
backwards (only the ShaderDebugState is needed to move forward or backwards,
you don't have to search back for the last set value of a variable to 'undo' a
change).
* Subresource handling is more consistent - we pass around a struct now that
contains the array slice, mip level, and sample. We remove the concept of
'MSAA textures count samples as extra slices within the real slices' and
internalise that completely. This also means we have a consistent set
everywhere that we need to refer to a subresource.
* Functions that used to be in the ReplayOutput and use a couple of implicit
parameters from the texture viewer configuration are now in the
ReplayController and take them explicitly. This includes GetMinMax,
GetHistogram, and PickPixel.
* Since these functions aren't ReplayOutput relative, if you want to decode the
custom shader texture or the overlay texture you need to pass that ID
directly.
The shader output brush colors were displaying the tex before color
instead of the shader output color. Updated the linear -> sRGB formula
to match what DirectX does.
* The GUIInvoke object takes a QObject, and uses QPointer to check that
it hasn't been deleted when the callback fires. This prevents delayed
callbacks from executing after the object has been deleted and
crashing.
* In most cases the pointer is just 'this'.
* We enforce a naming scheme more strongly - types, member functions,
and enum values must be UpperCaseCamel, and member variables must be
lowerCaseCamel. No underscores allowed.
* eventId not eventID or EID, and Id preferred to ID in general. Also
for resourceId.
* Removed some lingering hungarian m_Foo naming.
* Some pipeline state structs that are almost identical between the
different APIs are pulled out into common structs. Where something
doesn't make sense (e.g. viewport enable for vulkan) it will just be
set to a sensible default (in that case always true).
* Changed scissors to be x/y & width/height instead of sometimes
left/top/right/bottom
* Abbreviations are discouraged, e.g. operation not op, function not
func.
* Instead of replaying predication, we now always skip it during replay,
so all objects will render. This is much more consistent and
understandable behaviour instead of things mysteriously disappearing
with no obvious reason why.
* We track the predication that would have happened and replay Begin/End
pairs so that we can know if the predication *would* have failed.
* This is displayed in the UI (currently in the raster state, for lack
of a better location) with the pass/fail that would have happened.
* This information can feed into other places for analysis like the
pixel history.
* Log is an overloaded term since it can also mean the debug log. We now
consistently refer to capture files as capture files or just captures
for short. The log is just for log messages and diagnostics.
* The user-facing UI was mostly already consistent, but many of the
public interfaces exposed to python needed to be renamed, and it made
more sense just to make everything consistent.
* We remove the now unneeded name fields in buffer/texture descriptions
and some of the pipeline state structs.
* A single function will give the human-readable name for a resource id.
This will look up a custom set of renames, on top of the names from
the resource descriptions.
* Since these types are more prevalent than originally designed, it
makes more sense to remove the namespace for ease of typing/naming.
* Also add a specialised type 'bytebuf' for an array of bytes.
* This makes mapping easier to SWIG since there's no special casing for
namespaced arrays. Especially so for nested cases like
rdctype::array<rdctype::str> -> rdcarray<rdcstr>
* For the most part the interface is stl-compatible, but we have a few
little changes of our own for convenience.
* This class is still needed after deleting the C# UI, because we don't
want to pass C++ stl structs over module boundaries and possibly run
into hard to diagnose incompatibilities.
