gfx-portability

This is a prototype library implementing Vulkan Portability Initiative using gfx-rs low-level core. See gfx-rs meta issue for backend limitations and further details.

Vulkan CTS coverage

gfx-rs Backend	Total cases	Pass	Fail	Quality warning	Compatibility warning	Not supported	Resource error	Internal error	Timeout	Crash
Vulkan	7759	2155	131	34	0	5439	0	0	0	0
DX12	3576	1258	70	0	0	2248	0	0	0	0
Metal	7687	2072	112	39	0	5464	0	0	0	0

Current blockers:

• Vulkan: "api.command_buffers.render_pass_continue" (secondary render passes).
• DX12: lack of VkBufferView implementation.
• Metal: "api.buffer_view.access.suballocation.buffer_view_memory_test_complete" (missing R32Uint support).

Please visit our wiki for CTS hookup instructions. Once everything is set, you can generate the new results by calling make cts on Unix systems. When investigating a particular failure, it's handy to do make cts-debug name=<test_name>, which runs a single test under system debugger (gdb/lldb).

Check out

git clone --recursive https://github.com/gfx-rs/portability && cd portability

Build

Makefile (Unix)

make

CMake (Window)

Build the Rust library (portability implementation):

cargo build --manifest-path libportability/Cargo.toml --features <vulkan|dx12|metal>

Build the native example:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --target native_test

Running Samples

LunarG (API-Samples)

After building portability as shown above, grab a copy from https://github.com/LunarG/VulkanSamples. Manually override the VULKAN_LOADER variable and set it to the portability library.

set (VULKAN_LOADER "path/to/portability/library")

Then proceed with the normal build instructions.
