We have to distinguish between the "bind count" and the "allocation size"
of variables.
The "allocation size" affects the starting register id for the resource to
be allocated next, while the "bind count" is determined by the last field
actually used. The former may be larger than the latter.
What we are currently calling hlsl_reg.bind_count is actually the
"allocation size", so a rename is in order.
The real "bind count", which will be introduced in following patches,
is important because it is what should be shown in the RDEF table and
some resource allocation rules depend on it.
For instance, for this shader:
texture2D texs[3];
texture2D tex;
float4 main() : sv_target
{
return texs[0].Load(int3(0, 0, 0)) + tex.Load(int3(0, 0, 0));
}
the variable "texs" has a "bind count" of 1, but an "allocation size" of
3:
// Resource Bindings:
//
// Name Type Format Dim HLSL Bind Count
// ------------------------------ ---------- ------- ----------- -------------- ------
// texs texture float4 2d t0 1
// tex texture float4 2d t3 1
We are using the hlsl_ir_var.is_uniform flag to indicate when an object
is a uniform copy created from a variable with the HLSL_STORAGE_UNIFORM
modifier.
We should be checking for this instead of the HLSL_STORAGE_UNIFORM flag
which is also set to 1 for the original variables, and there should be
no reason to use this flag instead of "is_uniform" after the uniform
copies and combined/separated samplers are created.
After lowering the derefs path to a single offset node, there was no way
of knowing the type of the referenced part of the variable. This little
modification allows to avoid having to pass the data type everywhere and
it is required for supporting instructions that reference objects
components within struct types.
Since deref->data_type allows us to retrieve the type of the deref,
deref->offset_regset is no longer necessary.
lower_narrowing_casts() currently creates a new cast calling
hlsl_new_cast(). This cast may be redundant, but it is not folded, which
is making SM1 emit an unnecessary fixme in some shaders:
Aborting due to not yet implemented feature: SM1 "cast" expression.
Other passes that call hlsl_new_cast() are lower_int_division() and
lower_int_modulus(), so the new fold_redundant_casts() pass is called
after these as well.
Non-constant vector indexing is not solved with relative addressing
in the register indexes because this indexation cannot be at the level
of register-components.
Mathematical operations must be used instead.
