With some (Windows 11) runtimes creating a shader cache session fails
when the requested size is too small. The test will have to be fixed for
that, but in the meantime let's at least ensure it doesn't crash.
We're already using functions not made available through either
metal_common or metal_texture. This doesn't seem to be an issue for the
Metal shader runner, possibly because the "online" compiler includes the
required headers by default. In any case, including metal_stdlib should
make all of MSLib available.
When no descriptor mapping is specified, the backend will just
build the usual default mapping. Otherwise the explicit mapping
is used.
Once all backends support the explicit mapping, we'll be able to
handle generating the default mapping in the shader runner core
rather than having each backend implement its own algorithm.
So far only the d3d12 backend supports explicit descriptor
mapping.
MSL doesn't seem to have any special handling for undefined values,
differently from SPIR-V. Thus we just emit zeros.
UNDEF registers are sometimes created by the DXIL parser,
for example in sm6_parser_emit_composite_construct().
For an if block
if (cond)
{
<then_block>
}
else
{
<else_block>
}
We flatten it by first replacing any store instruction `v[[k]] = x`
in the then_block with the following:
1: load(v[[k]])
2: cond ? x : @1
3: v[[k]] = @2
Similarly, we replace any store instruction `v[[k]] = x` in the
else_block with the following:
1: load(v[[k]])
2: cond ? @1 : x
3: v[[k]] = @2
Then we can concatenate <then_block> and <else_block> together and
get rid of the if block.
