According to the documentation, if_comp is available from 2_x pixel
and vertex shaders and, unlike "if bool" it doesn't expect a constant
boolean register (from the input signature), so:
if_neq cond -cond
seems like a convenient way to write these, for profiles above 2.0.
We want the base type to stop being a property of all types, and to stop using
the same enumeration for objects and numeric types. The backend should do the
work of translation; we want a more sensible and convenient representation for
the compiler itself.
As the diffstat shows, HLSL_CLASS_OBJECT does not really have much in common.
Resource types (TEXTURE, SAMPLER, UAV) sometimes behave similarly to each other,
but do not generally behave similarly to effect-specific types (string, shader,
state, view). Most consumers of HLSL_CLASS_OBJECT subsequently check the base
type anyway.
Hence we want to replace HLSL_TYPE_* with individual classes for object types.
As a first step, change the last few places that only check HLSL_CLASS_OBJECT.
I realized that it is better to lower casts to int to FLOOR+REINTERPET
instead of appending a FLOOR to all casts to int and assuming that this
is the case for all of them in d3dbc.c.
This in case we introduce new passes in the future that add casts that
we forget to lower, after the lower_casts_to_bool pass.
For temporary registers, SM1-SM3 integer types are internally
represented as floating point, so, in order to perform a cast
from ints to floats we need a mere MOV.
For constant integer registers "iN" there is no operation for casting
from a floating point register to them. For address registers "aN", and
the loop counting register "aL", vertex shaders have the "mova" operation
but we haven't used these registers in any way yet.
We probably would want to introduce these as synthetic variables
allocated in a special register set. In that case we have to remember to
use MOVA instead of MOV in the store operations, but they shouldn't be src
or dst of CAST operations.
Regarding constant integer registers, in some shaders, constants are
expected to be received formatted as an integer, such as:
int m;
float4 main() : sv_target
{
float4 res = {0, 0, 0, 0};
for (int k = 0; k < m; ++k)
res += k;
return res;
}
which compiles as:
// Registers:
//
// Name Reg Size
// ------------ ----- ----
// m i0 1
//
ps_3_0
def c0, 0, 1, 0, 0
mov r0, c0.x
mov r1.x, c0.x
rep i0
add r0, r0, r1.x
add r1.x, r1.x, c0.y
endrep
mov oC0, r0
but this only happens if the integer constant is used directly in an
instruction that needs it, and as I said there is no instruction that
allows converting them to a float representation.
Notice how a more complex shader, that performs operations with this
integer variable "m":
int m;
float4 main() : sv_target
{
float4 res = {0, 0, 0, 0};
for (int k = 0; k < m * m; ++k)
res += k;
return res;
}
gives the following output:
// Registers:
//
// Name Reg Size
// ------------ ----- ----
// m c0 1
//
ps_3_0
def c1, 0, 0, 1, 0
defi i0, 255, 0, 0, 0
mul r0.x, c0.x, c0.x
mov r1, c1.y
mov r0.y, c1.y
rep i0
mov r0.z, r0.x
break_ge r0.y, r0.z
add r1, r0.y, r1
add r0.y, r0.y, c1.z
endrep
mov oC0, r1
Meaning that the uniform "m" is just stored as a floating point in
"c0", the constant integer register "i0" is just set to 255 (hoping
it is a high enough value) using "defi", and the "break_ge"
involving c0 is used to break from the loop.
We could potentially use this approach to implement loops from SM3
without expecting the variables being received as constant integer
registers.
According to the D3D documentation, for SM1-SM3 constant integer
registers are only used by the 'loop' and 'rep' instructions.
These can be disassembled by D3DDisassemble() just fine, and perhaps
more importantly, shader model 1 vertex shaders do not require dcl_
instructions in Direct3D 8.
Currently, HLSL_RESOURCE_SAMPLE_LOD is not implemented for d3dbc,
but we are incorrectly writting a texld instruction to handle it.
This causes SM1 tests with the vulkan backend (in following patches)
to fail if VKD3D_SHADER_CONFIG="force_validation" is enabled.
For now a fixme is emited in these cases.
This was broken by commit e390bc35e2c9b0a2110370f916033eea2366317e; that
commit fixed the source count for these instructions, but didn't adjust
shader_sm1_skip_opcode(). Note that this only affects shader model 1;
later versions have a token count embedded in the initial opcode token.
