Add MVKEvent class. MVKEventNative subclass uses native MTLEvent. MVKEventEmulated
subclass uses emulation using CPU blocking and MTLCommandBuffer completion handling.
MVKConfiguration::synchronousQueueSubmits now disabled by default if MTLEvents are not supported.
Document updated use of MVK_ALLOW_METAL_EVENTS and MVK_CONFIG_SYNCHRONOUS_QUEUE_SUBMITS
environment variables and synchronousQueueSubmits config setting, in vk_mvk_moltenvk.h.
When available, use it instead of doing it manually in the shaders.
Unfortunately, it's only available on Apple GPU family 4 and up, and
desktop GPU family 2. Should still provide a nice boost.
Mac-only for now. Mostly because I don't know which formats beyond DXTn
and ASTC support 3D textures. Also, the extension to support 3D ASTC
compression isn't ready yet.
This extension requires macOS 10.15. For some reason, even though
Apple said that the new Apple TV supports HDR10 and DolbyVision, the
`CAEDRMetadata` type underlying this is not supported on either iOS or
tvOS.
Also set the `wantsExtendedDynamicRangeContent` property on macOS to
enable HDR output. It's not only set if HDR metadata is attached, but
also if an HDR color space is selected.
MVKDevice check highest queue family index before expanding queue family collection.
MVKVector add bounds check to at(), [], front() & back() functions.
MVKDispatchableVulkanAPIObject::getVkHandle() re-establishes the loader magic number
before returning, in case the loader overwrote it before returning the object.
Update to latest external dependency libraries.
Rename components of VK_INTEL_shader_integer_functions2 to match 1.1.114 Vulkan spec.
Update What's New document.
Remove the descriptor set pool associated with a MVKDescriptorSetLayout when the layout
is destroyed. MVKDescriptorPool and MVKDescriptorSetLayout track each other to tell the
other when it has been destroyed.
This is the instance half of device-group support. This provides the
means to enumerate all known physical device groups, and to create
grouped logical devices.
This provides just enough to satisfy the Vulkan spec. Metal won't
support this fully until Metal 3.0 in the upcoming macOS 10.15.
Advertise linear filtering of linear textures on macOS. I don't see any
reason this was disabled, and I don't know why I didn't turn it on in
PR #391.
Advertise that texel buffers of `VK_FORMAT_A2R10G10B10_UNORM_PACK32` are
supported. This was another oversight of mine in #391.
*Don't* advertise that sRGB formats can be used as vertex attributes.
I'm not sure what that would even mean--I'm guessing that the
implementation performs sRGB->linear conversion on the attribute before
loading it? But we don't do that and neither does Metal.
Remove use of autorelease.
Rename getXXX() functions that returned autoreleased objects to newXXX() that don't.
Calling functions now responsible for releasing returned objects from these functions.
Move creation and tracking of texture->texture views for copying to MVKImage.
MVKCmdCopyImage retrieve texture view from MVKImage.
MVKMTLFunction responsible for releasing its MTLFunction.
Add dev notes to README.md.
Correct maximum number of texel buffer elements for the native texture
buffer case. With an 8-bit format, I assume it's possible to create a
texture buffer spanning the entire 3.5 GiB (the maximum size of a buffer
on my GPU).
Set the structure type in the physical device's
`_texelBuffAlignProperties` struct. Otherwise, when it gets written out
to a chain, the structure type will be lost, and it wouldn't e.g. show
up in `vulkaninfo`.
Fix enumeration of formats when one of the members of the
`VkFormatProperties` is zero. I intended that to mean "don't care," but
it was erroneously filtering out, well, everything. Now we actually
accurately report the minimum alignment requirements.
The documentation for the corresponding Metal format recommends using it
on displays with wide-color output to reduce banding artifacts, and thus
implies that it is possible to use it with a CAMetalLayer.
