This exposes interfaces to render glyphs into a texture atlas. The main changes are:
* Methods to plumb raw Metal GPU resources (device, texture, etc) into piet-gpu-hal objects.
* A new glyph_render API specialized to rendering glyphs. This is basically the same as just painting to a canvas, but will allow better caching (and has more direct access to fonts, bypassing the Piet font type which is underdeveloped).
* Ability to render to A8 target in addition to RGBA.
WIP, there are some rough edges, not least of which is that the image format changes are only on mac and cause compile errors elsewhere.
Make max workgroup size 256 and respect LG_WG_FACTOR.
Because the monoid scans only support a height of 2, this will reduce
the maximum scene complexity we can render. But it also increases
compatibility. Supporting larger scans is a TODO.
This is one of the stages in the new element pipeline. It's a simple
one, just a prefix sum of a couple counts, and some of it will probably
get merged with a downstream stage, but we'll do it separately for now
for convenience.
This patch also contains an update to Vulkan tools 1.2.198, which
accounts for the large diff of translated shaders.
This patch contains the core of the path stream processing, though some
integration bits are missing. The core logic is tested, though
combinations of path types, transforms, and line widths are not (yet).
Progress towards #119
There's a bit of reorganizing as well. Shader stages are made available
from piet-gpu to the test rig, config is now a proper structure
(marshaled with bytemuck).
This commit just has the transform stage, which is a simple monoid scan
of affine transforms.
Progress toward #119
WIP. Most of the GPU-side work should be done (though it's not tested
end-to-end and it's certainly possible I missed something), but still
needs work on encoding side.
Don't run extensions unless they're available. This includes querying
for descriptor indexing, and running one of two versions of kernel4
depending on whether it's enabled.
Part of the support needed for #78
Path segments are unsorted, but other elements are using the same
sort-middle approach as before.
This is a checkpoint. At this point, there are unoptimized versions
of tile init and coarse path raster, but it isn't wired up into a
working pipeline. Also observing about a 3x performance regression in
element processing, which needs to be investigated.
Trying to fit it into the fancy monad doesn't really work, so use a
more straightforward approach to compute it from the aggregate.
Also add yEdge logic (basically copying piet-metal). With a fix to
ELEMENT_BINNING_RATIO (which I had simply gotten wrong), the example
renders almost correctly, with small bounding box artifacts.
This version seems to work but the allocation of segments has low
utilization. Probably best to allocate in chunks rather than try to
make them contiguous.
This just adds the first step of polyline stroking, which is adding it
to the scene. Also just a bit of cleaning up of dimensions into one
header file.
Populates the piet-gpu subdir, with an extremely simple renderer. The
main program saves the image to a PNG.
Contains a few fixes (I was confused about the need for multiple
bindings, as opposed to multiple descriptors within a binding).
