Retain MVKSwapchainImage before passing to MTLCommandBuffer completion handler.
Redesign MVKVulkanAPIObject retain/release functionality using atomic ref count
instead of mutex locks, to simplify design and improve performance.
Refactor SPIRVToMSLConverterContext into distinct SPIRVToMSLConversionConfiguration
and SPIRVToMSLConversionResults for conversion input and output, respectively.
Update to latest SPIRV-Cross version.
Update What's New document.
On iOS GPU family 2 and earlier:
- Allow immutable samplers to be passed to SPIRV-Cross in a format
they can be output as hardcoded constexpr samplers in MSL.
- Validate depth compare samplers are only used as immutable.
MVKMVKPipelineLayout & MVKDescriptorSetLayout can take null MVKCommandEncoder
to perform a validation pass when binding or pushing.
Reduce redundancy by combining SPIRVToMSLConverterContext structs
with compatible SPIRV-Cross structs.
Update MoltenVK version to 1.0.36.
vkCmdClearAttachments(): Return encoder to previous pipeline, depth-stencil & resource state after execution.
Fix issue clearing stencil attachment via renderpass when depth attachment is not being cleared.
MVKCmdClearAttachment sets the stencil reference value to 0 and the stencil
reference value is not properly restored for subsequent draw calls.
I'm affraid there might be more similar bugs in MoltenVK.
MVKPipeline records whether Metal pipelines are successfully compiled.
Pipeline and draw commands check for valid Metal pipeline state before encoding.
Compute compilation operations can have custom names.
Name Tessellation control stage compute compiler for logging.
Set MTLFunction label immediately after creation from MVKShaderModule.
Remove _shaderModule reference from MVKShaderLibrary & MVKShaderLibraryCache.
No-op propogateDebugName() function in MVKShaderModule & MVKPipelineCache.
Dispatch messenger callbacks on any reported message or error.
Add MVKDebugUtilsMessenger class.
Add MVKVulkanAPIObject::getVkObjectType() function and override in all Vulkan API objects.
MVKDevice::getMTLPixelFormatFromVkFormat() take base object for reporting.
Instead, just avoid calling into Metal. It's perfectly valid to specify
no viewports--for example, if rasterization is disabled. Perhaps, then,
it'd be better to assert that rasterization is disabled when no
viewports are given.
vkCmdDebugMarkerBegin() and vkCmdDebugMarkerEnd() attach debug
groups to render encoder if available, or command buffer if not.
Name MTLRenderCommandEncoder first after renderpass,
if named, then command buffer, if named, then usage name.
Add MVKCommandEncoder::endRenderpass() to clean up renderpass components.
MVKShaderLibrary and MVKShaderLibraryCache track shader module to
retrieve name for MTLLibrary and MTLFunction, even when cached offline.
All external library header references consistently include framework references.
Cleanup references to external library headers that are no longer required.
Simplify and consolidate external library header paths in Xcode projects.
Add MVK_EXCLUDE_SPIRV_TOOLS build option to avoid use of SPIRV-Tools library.
Remove all other references to headers within SPIRV-Tools library.
