These are std::shared_ptr instances underneath the hood, which means
copying them isn't as cheap as a regular pointer. Particularly so on
weakly-ordered systems.
This avoids atomic reference count increments and decrements where they
aren't necessary for the core set of operations.
While changing this code, simplify tracking code to allow returning
the base address node, this way callers don't have to manually rebuild
it on each invocation.
This commit implements gl_ViewportIndex and gl_Layer in vertex and
geometry shaders. In the case it's used in a vertex shader, it requires
ARB_shader_viewport_layer_array. This extension is available on AMD and
Nvidia devices (mesa and proprietary drivers), but not available on
Intel on any platform. At the moment of writing this description I don't
know if this is a hardware limitation or a driver limitation.
In the case that ARB_shader_viewport_layer_array is not available,
writes to these registers on a vertex shader are ignored, with the
appropriate logging.
Hardware testing revealed that SSY and PBK push to a different stack,
allowing code like this:
SSY label1;
PBK label2;
SYNC;
label1: PBK;
label2: EXIT;
Analysis passes do not have a good reason to depend on shader_ir.h to
work on top of nodes. This splits node-related declarations to their own
file and leaves the IR in shader_ir.h
Instead of having a vector of unique_ptr stored in a vector and
returning star pointers to this, use shared_ptr. While changing
initialization code, move it to a separate file when possible.
This is a first step to allow code analysis and node generation beyond
the ShaderIR class.
This allows for forming comment nodes without making unnecessary copies
of the std::string instance.
e.g. previously:
Comment(fmt::format("Base address is c[0x{:x}][0x{:x}]",
cbuf->GetIndex(), cbuf_offset));
Would result in a copy of the string being created, as CommentNode()
takes a std::string by value (a const ref passed to a value parameter
results in a copy).
Now, only one instance of the string is ever moved around. (fmt::format
returns a std::string, and since it's returned from a function by value,
this is a prvalue (which can be treated like an rvalue), so it's moved
into Comment's string parameter), we then move it into the CommentNode
constructor, which then moves the string into its member variable).
