<cheako> daniels: I took a look at the BTS and it took me a while to figure out what I was going to do about what I saw there. Firstly, you should take a good look so you've an informed position if nothing else. The BTS does not look like an effective method for getting even the most basic levels of assistance, just by reading the titles I was able to assist with two issues over the last 3 months. So it's an effective resource for being
<cheako> ignored. Secondly, and because of this, it's going to become an unmanageable mess if nobody even reads them and someone should take a look.

<zmike> I usually try to do a lot of my merging in your tz because things usually work better then :P
<zmike> less congestion
<zmike> but weekends are also tough
<airlied> need to design a self repairing system :-P
<zmike> sounds like a job for you-know-who
<airlied> Sun/Mon .au time is the worst, since generally it's fallen over in the weeds on Saturday :-P
<airlied> and I don't really feel like pushing disable half the CI without acks
<zmike> I keep saying it but there should be like a CI concierge
<zmike> or maybe just a channel
<zmike> where people can list MRs they want marged and kind strangers can retry whenever they have a minute during rebuilds
rasetan has joined #dri-devel
<airlied> I'd like a least some indication of whether it's dead or just slow somewhere
<airlied> to avoid just reassigning random MRs until one stucks
<zmike> gotta read through all the failure logs to find out
<zmike> like a treasure hunt!
<tarceri> haha
<rasetan> So the discussion of yours surprisingly inconclusive, CPU Intel products with so many instructions overlay arithmetcs over one result forwarding bus with instant parallel selection to nr of banks so div is in different one than mul add, they combine them based of types to, so entirely based of what type and what arithmetic used you are delayed with one cycle if it's not the same bank to forward the result, earlier cores were more simple and had no suc
<rasetan> And there I yestirday picked up news where rdna was integrated to arm docs with AMD collaborating with Nvidia who now owns arm stuff or any soc company can't remember, same was offered for multiisa CPUs by me, but the former yeah great idea too.
<rasetan> So calling a supercheduler of dispatcher enabled chip like simd or vliw, goes to mark multiwave wg, which is always possible, internal crossbus module arbiters loaded, than limiting the wavefronts to zero or anything below what sibling module, like fetcher has in arb registers,makes scheduler to stall :)
<rasetan> Err dispatcher
<rasetan> I made the needed simulations but ring buffers were missing but I see the ring Isa it's simplest which will work great.
<jenatali> I happened to see a MR that had timed-out CI that eventually passed and tried reassigning... But Marge didn't do anything with it and I don't understand why
<rasetan> And why I even talk this to you is only my genuine respect for you making the drivers regardless of the genuine disrespect you have towards me added also that I am surveillanced and my code would leak anyway, but I would had given it to you regardless for the reason outlined in the first part of the sentence.
<airlied> jenatali: I think there is a corner case where if nothing else gets merged in between
<airlied> marge won't do a rebase
<airlied> so you have to manually retry the pipeline
<airlied> it does look like at least the amd deviecs in CI are down

<anholt> airlied: is it really given a test result of "Info", or are we mis-parsing something else?
<airlied> anholt: haven't dug into the qpa file yet
<airlied> btw the error msg says .log but I think the file on disk is .qpa
<rasetan> So as you think about this, prioritising ring packets to cause dispatcher to stall is meant to be performance feature to hide the latency, so only way to block it is to fragment the waves and test it with conditional in which this totally nuts case you'd end up cracking up easily the inverter with a bus back, there is no way to get away limiting perf hence.
<anholt> airlied: we should be storing the stderr/stdout in the .log file at that path
<airlied> I don't see that
<rasetan> To test what opcodes ring sends on full band in circumstances would require incredible resources for another decoder added totally impossible
<anholt> thinking of new vk cts, could you please ack the llvm assert removal so we can at least get to 1.2.8.0?
<rasetan> As to block the shader opcodes to land on request evilly.
* anholt does wonder when we get cts 1.3
<Sachiel> Soon™
<rasetan> In other words aside from simple inverter to block reprogramming the threads if halt is not met, the dispatcher and decoders would make the chip 10 times larger, and due to performance the inverter based fuse is undisirable.
<rasetan> So it really is going to work that hack as seen from dx12 and vulkan apis.
<airlied> anholt: looking
<jekstrand> 1.3 or bust!
<rasetan> As with regulating voltsge by leaking inverter ones to bus can control anything like as gpu was fpga you can program gpu to execute also arm or x86 code totally in hw with insane perf, so rdna and equipment is nuts but on arm you first get the access of the most insanest gpu on phones or tablets.
<rasetan> This is big blow as said this hw is something I would really want to have.
<airlied> anholt: ah yes *that* assert
<airlied> okay let me go reproduce it and see what I can convince myself of
<rasetan> You end up with 200 CPU core machine equivalent on freaking phone, capable of running x86 Photoshop with ease, I know gcn the best, but any gpu can do the last.
<rasetan> But as x86 is claimed to be property Ida wise of Intel in SW the fallback fast hash method exist also to overcome that claim, but imo hw rights they do not have, it should be legal to program fpga or asic to execute x86.
<rasetan> Totally insane, Samsung low power cross Isa homebrew incorporating 600 extreme low voltage cores on 4nm, so this is how insane the tech is today, a freaking tablet like this.
<rasetan> Samsung was the partner of amd I remember now.
<ishitatsuyuki> lol hammered
<maxzor> who struck the Lithuanian
<ishitatsuyuki> I'm wondering why mpv is slow at seeking when using vaapi
<ishitatsuyuki> The video is a zoom recording and has very long keyframe intervals to save space
<ishitatsuyuki> Is it just the latency from issuing GPU commands or could it be some bug?
<ishitatsuyuki> software decoding seeks are nearly instant in comparison
<ishitatsuyuki> hwdec takes ~0.5s
<imirkin> with which gpu?

<anholt> are you running virgl with llvmpipe as the vtest backend?

<airlied> looks specific to that test
<airlied> not an overall deqp thing
<anholt> khr-gl also has some oddball test statuses it uses in a couple tests.
<anholt> but this feels like someone just grabbed the wrong one tbh
<airlied> they are emitted it directly in the code
<airlied> because why not :-P
<anholt> way to go
<airlied> okay filed an issue, no hurry, I'm going to hack the cts to remove them for now
<anholt> i'm sure upstream would say we should be parsing qpas instead, if anything, but we really do want to understand these test statuses because we're trying to coalesce the meanings of them into a few things.

<danvet> javierm, the recent syzbot fix that says "video: vga16fb: Only probe for EGA and VGA 16 color graphic cards" fixes some entirely unrelated looking splat scares me :-/
<cwabbott> seems like anv and radv both don't try to lookup anything in the cache after linking, which I'm a bit surprised by
<tzimmermann> same here
<tzimmermann> danvet ^
<danvet> tzimmermann, maybe it'll come back with more drivers enabled now ...
<javierm> danvet: yes, I think is because that driver was always probed without even checking if the machine had a EGA/VGA graphics card
<danvet> orly?
<danvet> javierm, it should still not blow up I think
<javierm> danvet: agreed but the fact that now there's a check that prevents to be loaded unless is really a EGA/VGA 16 mode, masked the real issue
<cwabbott> is that intentional? I'd think you'd get quite a few hits from pipelines just sharing FS or VS
<javierm> because now the syzbot can't reach the buggy code in fbdev anymore
nchery has joined #dri-devel
<danvet> yeah and vga16/ega is probably dead enough that we can stop to care
<javierm> danvet: yeah. We already know that fb{dev,con} is a mine field. Even if people claim otherwise
<danvet> the thing that also scares me is that fbcon locking is still fundamentally busted (see the FIXME in fbcon.c I put a while ago)
<danvet> and I just spent last week screaming at it, and it's unfixable
<danvet> yay
<danvet> anyway I hope I can send out these roughly 20 patches or so
<danvet> send out soon I mean
<javierm> danvet: cool
<javierm> danvet: related, I was looking at drm-log last week and forward ported to latest drm-misc-next. Pushed to https://github.com/martinezjavier/linux/tree/drm-log now
<javierm> but IIUC David's patch was only the infrastructure to add the kernel log buffer in a place where it could later be retried by drm_log_draw()
<danvet> javierm, uh I just noticed your check for num_registered_fb > 0 in efifb and simplefb
<danvet> can't we do better?
<danvet> least because this doesn't actually check much
<danvet> I'd like to hide num_registered_fb in fbmem.c and drop the export
<javierm> danvet: I don't know. We discussed that with Geert and didn't have a better idea
<danvet> well except for olpc, that thing is unfixable
<javierm> danvet: happy to write a patch if you have an idea on how to make that check better
mattrope has joined #dri-devel
<javierm> danvet: problem is that the aperture infra for DRM and fbdev are not the same. So DRM drivers can't compare against the other
<danvet> javierm, tie it into remove_conflicting_framebuffers?
<danvet> well ideally one level up using the simple pdev thing
<danvet> *simple-framebuffer
<javierm> danvet: but it's the opposite. DRM should tell fbdev when an aperture is registered
<javierm> danvet: this is what I tried but didn't work https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/11/16/566
<danvet> javierm, well something like a) remove_conflicting_framebuffers nukes the simple-framebuffer device and b) efifb et al check whether that's still there
<danvet> javierm, I guess I can just wrap it up
<demarchi> jani: danvet for string_helpers.h new functions (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/99030/) the agreement was to merge the first patch on drm-misc. Any chance we can get that merged so we have a chance to get it on next backmerge to the other branches?
<javierm> danvet: actually, I think tzimmermann already fixed this properly with commit 7599aacbaef ("fbdev: Hot-unplug firmware fb devices on forced removal")
<javierm> danvet: so AFAICT you can drop those checks now
<danvet> demarchi, sure
<danvet> grab a drm-misc committer and volunteer them :-)
<javierm> danvet: better for tzimmermann to confirm if I'm not missing anything to avoid adding a regression. But I think that should work now that the devices are removed
<danvet> javierm, I don't have that commit here?
<javierm> danvet: ups, sorry was in another branch. Is 27599aacbaef in drm-misc-next
<danvet> thx
<javierm> demarchi: happy to help. Do you want me to push to drm-misc-next ? I haven't looked at the series but I see that's already acked by jani and danvet :)
shankaru has joined #dri-devel
<demarchi> javierm: yes, just the first commit
<javierm> demarchi: yes, I got that. Was fetching https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/470882/?series=99030&rev=2
<demarchi> javierm: thanks
<javierm> demarchi: yw
<tzimmermann> danvet, javierm, sorry, i#m pretty busy. what am i supposed to confirm?
<javierm> tzimmermann: if commit 27599aacbaef ("fbdev: Hot-unplug firmware fb devices on forced removal") fixed the underlaying problem fixed by fb561bf9abde ("fbdev: Prevent probing generic drivers if a FB is already registered")
<javierm> tzimmermann: because now a DRM driver will kick off the platform drivers and prevent generic fbdev drivers to probe
<javierm> err, *kick off the platform devices
Surkow|laptop has joined #dri-devel
<javierm> tzimmermann: there's no rush though. Sorry for disturbing you
<tzimmermann> javierm, i think both issues are unrelated
<javierm> tzimmermann: oh, right. Because sysfb cold register the plaform device *after* the DRM driver called remove_conflicting_framebuffers()...
<danvet> I'll reorder the patches to make that and the cleanup the last two then
<tzimmermann> removing drm drivers from fbdev is currently not possible. the best way would be a hock in fbdev that allows remove_conflicting_framebuffers to call into drm aperture helpers
<danvet> tzimmermann, do we really care about that edge case?
<danvet> that sounds like you have a native fbdev driver which wants to remove simpledrm
<danvet> which sounds very backwards
<tzimmermann> well, i don't. but i'm pretty sure someone out there...
<danvet> javierm, can't we stop sysfb in that case?
<danvet> or at least guarantee the sysfb pdev exists before we start loading drivers
<danvet> or make sure it doesn't pop up when we tried to nuke it already
<javierm> danvet: the problem is the following. 1) A real graphics device is registered, 2) the DRM driver matches and is probed, 3) sysfb register a simple-framebuffer pdev 4) the simple{fb,drm} matches
<javierm> the problem is with simplefb, because fbdev has no knowledge about what DRM has done
<danvet> yeah but imo 3) happening after 2) is a bug
<javierm> so DRM will need to export a symbol for either fbdev or sysfb to query if there was a driver already registered
<danvet> because the other way round the drm driver will have nuked the sysfb
<javierm> danvet: yes, but problem is that sysfb is in drivers/firmware and that's linked by the kernel after drivers/gpu/drm
<danvet> javierm, why can we set up the sysfb this late?
<javierm> so if you have built-in the two, it's a problem
<danvet> ffs
<javierm> danvet: yeah...
<danvet> javierm, I guess the correct fix would be to have a proper interface for kicking out the sysfb pdev
<danvet> instead of the clever trick added in 27599aacbaefcbf2af7b06b0029459bbf682000d
<danvet> and then call that from both fbdev and drm
<danvet> and also in that function, set a flag to make sure the sysfb doesn't pop back up
<tzimmermann> danvet, javierm, simply let fbdev export a hook and let drm aperture helpers fill its value whne the first driver acquires a range
<javierm> danvet: can we use notifiers and a state in fbdev ?
<danvet> well the entire aperture stuff still feels like a hack a bit
<tzimmermann> after that fbdev will call into drm to drm
<danvet> it's not very driver model at least
<danvet> javierm, uh notifiers are nasty
<danvet> just direct function call or something
Duke`` has joined #dri-devel
<tzimmermann> danvet, because it is a hack
<javierm> danvet, tzimmermann: also, the apertures infra wouldn't be needed if all the drivers requested their I/O mem resources
<tzimmermann> how would we match generic devices to the real ones
<javierm> so I think the correct solution here would be what tzimmermann proposed. To fix all DRM drivers to request_mem_region() and then sysfb would fail to do it
<javierm> and not register the pdev in the first place if another driver grabbed that mem range
<danvet> still feels silly since on anything modern the struct device already knows about all the ranges
<danvet> both pci and of/dt at least
<danvet> so the entire request_*_region stuff feels like busy work left around from isa days
<javierm> danvet: hmm, right. Maybe then the core should handle it and not allow to register the device ?
<javierm> that makes a lot of sense actually. I just wouldn't dare to fix this kernel wide :)
<danvet> yeah I do feel a bit like our entire remove_conflicting_framebuffers dance is really something the driver core should be able to handle
<danvet> at least the generic case

<javierm> demarchi: doesn't apply cleanly because drm-misc-next is still based on v5.16-rc5 and there are changes in include/linux/string_helpers.h landed in v5.17-rc1
<javierm> I could easily resolve the merge conflict but my worry is that could cause issues down the road
<javierm> probably better to wait until drm-misc-next is rebased on top of v5.17-rcx ?

I see that for VGA you can't really rely on existing EDID, but is there some reliable way of knowing if there is actually a display on the other hand or do we have to report them as connected and hope that users won't mind?
<imirkin> karolherbst: you do a load check, which is a hardware-specific thing
<imirkin> to check if something's connected to VGA
<imirkin> we do that. it's connected :)
<karolherbst> yeah... I guess we are just out of luck here then
<karolherbst> I just don't know very much about VGA era hardware and stuff :D
<imirkin> we could drop support for pre-EDID
<imirkin> i think EDID became a thing in the early-to-mid 90's
<karolherbst> yeah.. I assume nobody has displays around like that anymore
<karolherbst> we could add a flag
<imirkin> presumably the folks who have a non-EDID monitor are kinda aware of that, and would be more likely to be aware that there's some special flag? dunno
<imirkin> (or we could even print that info in the thing which disables it)
<karolherbst> warning in dmesg might be helpful
<karolherbst> "connected display with no EDID detected, boot with nouveau.no_edid_displays=1 to enable them"
<karolherbst> but at this point more wondering about how other drivers deal with this

<imirkin> i think other drivers don't have improperly wired outputs
<imirkin> it's really the best way to deal with it :)
<karolherbst> :D
<imirkin> nvidia was in a _lot_ of laptops, which aren't necessarily known for the best integration
<karolherbst> so you mean for sure which ports are valid ones and we don't?
<karolherbst> *they know
<karolherbst> but yeah...
<imirkin> as do we
<karolherbst> although there were plenty of AMD laptops as well
<imirkin> it's valid.
<imirkin> we checked to see if something's connected
<imirkin> it is connected.
<imirkin> what more can we do?
<karolherbst> ohh.. I was refering to some stupid vbios flag we don't care about
<imirkin> it's on the dock i think
<imirkin> we could somehow integrate to check if the dock is connected
<imirkin> i haven't the faintest how one might do that
<karolherbst> mhhhh
<karolherbst> probabli some firmware interface or something
<imirkin> not sure if the vbios indicates whether it's an output on the dock or not
<imirkin> DCB specs are open, so we could double-cehck in tehre
<karolherbst> would be interesting to know what nvidia does
<karolherbst> right
<karolherbst> like this? "0x18 = Mobile system with extra connectors on the dock"
<imirkin> but ideally on the connector
<karolherbst> it's in the connector table
<imirkin> ok. well grab the vbios from that guy and see what it says?
<imirkin> a lot of people reported those types of problems, esp around the time we added runpm
<karolherbst> there is quite a bunch of stuff related to docks
<karolherbst> 0x50 = VGA 15-pin connector if not docked '(See Notes below)'
<karolherbst> 0x51 = VGA 15-pin connector if docked '(See Notes below)'
<karolherbst> "There are some connector types, 0x50 through 0x57, that require extra code in the detection routines inside any code that uses the DCB. For Mobile systems, some connectors might only be on the actual body of the notebook. Also, some connectors might only show up on the docking station. Therefore we need to make sure that we don’t allow anyone to select a device that is not actually present. So, when we see connectors with the "if not
<karolherbst> docked" and "if docked" text in the description, we must make sure that our detection code checks the docked condition first and possibly culls any further detection attempts if the docked condition is not met."
<karolherbst> sooo.. mhh right
<karolherbst> leaves us with the question: how to know if the laptops is docked or not
<MrCooper> karolherbst: if the driver can't reliably detect whether or not something is connected, it should set connector_status_unknown
idr has joined #dri-devel
<imirkin> MrCooper: it's pretty reliable. just some hardware is wired up funny.
<karolherbst> MrCooper: the thing is... it looks connected
<imirkin> OTOH
<imirkin> we could start setting unknown for the docked-type ports
<MrCooper> sounds like realiable as in unreliable :)
<karolherbst> well.. we get not edid
<karolherbst> but this is on VGA
<karolherbst> so...
<imirkin> MrCooper: well, it reliably works everywhere except these weird laptops
<karolherbst> I guess no edid means unknown in 2022
<karolherbst> but yeah...
<imirkin> MrCooper: so do we set to unknown for everyone?
<karolherbst> I think we should check if it's a docked connector
<MrCooper> maybe set unknown for the smallest possible set which includes the unreliable connectors on those weird laptops
<karolherbst> imirkin: it seems like that body connectors can vanish once the laptop is docked
<karolherbst> and I am sure we don't do that either
<imirkin> karolherbst: really? that'd be unusual
<karolherbst> imirkin: read the text I was quoting
<imirkin> huh, ok
<imirkin> well, just coz an enum is there doesn't mean it ever happens
<karolherbst> right
<karolherbst> but those GPUS can't handle like 6 outputs
<karolherbst> so if 2 are on the body and 4 on the dock...
<imirkin> but they can handle 6 connectors :)
<karolherbst> there might be some muxing happening, but yeah...
<imirkin> fermi has 2 CRTC's
<karolherbst> "if not docked" also sounds like a werid thing, but if it's like this....
<karolherbst> hard to tell without having the hardware
<karolherbst> imirkin: wow.. we don't even handle those ports inside nouveau
<karolherbst> should go through fallback logic instead
<imirkin> must not come up _too_ often
<karolherbst> our fallback logic is quite good actually
<karolherbst> the last time it broke was because of eDP
<karolherbst> ehh
<karolherbst> mDP
<karolherbst> anyway... it was more of a userspace issue anyway

<jekstrand> zmike: Looks like lower_precision is being called based on es_shader
<zmike> yeah that sure is weird how es_shader is true for desktop GL
<jekstrand> And it looks like es_shader is being set based on `version == 100`, glsl_parser_extras.cpp:478
<jekstrand> "Shaders that specify #version 100 will be treated as targeting version 1.00 of the OpenGL ES Shading Language."
<jekstrand> blarg
<imirkin> jekstrand: pretty sure "#version 300 es" also sets es_shader
<jekstrand> imirkin: Yeah, but we're looking at some GTF tests which are breaking in zink
<zmike> is this even possible to fix
<jekstrand> And they specify #version 100 for no good reason AFAICT.
<zmike> regular cts changes take ages, and this is gtf
<imirkin> jekstrand: GTF = "i'm sorry you have to deal with that" :)
<zmike> the "good reason" is that these shaders are reused for the ES tests
<zmike> but they don't use different #version directives
<zmike> how do other drivers not trip this?
<jekstrand> zmike: For the matrix ones, it may actually be zink bugs. I'd start there.
<alyssa> jekstrand: i thought GTF was short for GTFO
<jekstrand> zmike: AFAIK, the only drivers the GTF tests have been run against are radeonsi, iris, and i965.
<alyssa> imirkin: ^
<jekstrand> I don't think it's required for ES conformance anymore.
<zmike> oh other drivers are hitting it
<zmike> and it just doesn't affect them
<jekstrand> :-/
<zmike> cool
<jekstrand> I'm still suspicious of zink bugs for the matrix test so I'd start there.
<alyssa> jekstrand: I don't remember running any GTF tests on Panfrost and I got ES3.1 conformance ...

<HdkR> Are precision qualifiers expected to work when using an ES shader in a desktop GL context? I've always wondered about this.
<jekstrand> I think so, maybe?
<jekstrand> They "they do nothing" is in the GLSL spec, not the GL spec.
<jekstrand> And #version 100 very much says it's a GLSL ES shader.
<jekstrand> But I don't think I'd have a problem with adding a bit to make mediump do nothing for all desktop contexts.
<imirkin> jekstrand: it might be conflicting with GL_ARB_shading_language_100 or something?
<jekstrand> But then someone would complain that there's different behavior between GL and GLES
<jekstrand> You can't win
<HdkR> :D
<imirkin> that spec, of course, has a link to http://www.opengl.org/documentation/oglsl.html which no longer loads
<HdkR> If you're mixing ES and GL like this, you're already asking for problems
<imirkin> if you're running GTF, you're asking for problems :)
<HdkR> The 1.0 GLSL spec didn't have a #version directive which is why this mixture works
<imirkin> yeah, when you make the first of something, one tends not to think too hard about versioning
MajorBiscuit has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<HdkR> 1.1 mandated that the version in the directive was >= 110 as well. Which is why you can assume 100 to be ES
<HdkR> Such an abusive edge case
nchery has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<HdkR> Oh, also of course only works if your desktop version supports ES compatibility :)
<imirkin> GL_ARB_ES2_compatibility is required as of some GL version
alyssa has left #dri-devel [🐠]
<imirkin> GL 4.1, so pretty late :)
<HdkR> Is this test expecting GL 4.1 minimum?
<graphitemaster> TIL glBindBufferRange cannot be used with an indirect buffer, NV blindly accepted it and now I have an annoying bug to work around because my indirect params are not always stored at the base of the buffer
<graphitemaster> Why the hell is it specified like that
<HdkR> NV blindly accepts a bunch of things not allowed by spec. Always test on mesa instead :P
<graphitemaster> It's because glBindBuffer is just glBindBufferNV and NV allows it in their spec.
<graphitemaster> So is there a sane way to support this short of copying the buffer to a global dispatch indirect buffer
<graphitemaster> I might just have to do that
<jekstrand> danvet: Is git-cite part of the drm maintainer tools?
<imirkin> graphitemaster: iirc you can give an offset, no?
<graphitemaster> glDispatchComputeIndirect does not take an offset
<danvet> jekstrand, there's a dim cite
<graphitemaster> Oh
<imirkin> oh, was thinking of draw
<graphitemaster> Wait
<graphitemaster> IT DOES
<graphitemaster> I'm an idiot
<imirkin> GLintptr indirect
<imirkin> that might have something to do with it :)
<graphitemaster> Yeah I thought that WAS the buffer object itself
<graphitemaster> DSA has infected my brrain
<jekstrand> danvet: Hrm... I've been using "git cite" and now it's gone and I don't know why
<graphitemaster> Maybe it should've been named indirectOffset - gg Khronos
<imirkin> graphitemaster: at least it's not a *indirect like the draw ones :)
<graphitemaster> It's really confusing that the offset exists in the commands rather than the bind
<jekstrand> Well, I know why. It's because I blew away my Intel install. But I don't know specifically why.
<imirkin> because it's _so_ useful to dispatch *indirect* draws from *client* memory...
<graphitemaster> But I guess it makes sense
<graphitemaster> Binding should be avoided, so put the offsets in the command instead
<graphitemaster> Useful for one unified buffer which is actually what I'm doing anyways.
<graphitemaster> It's weird when you just have one buffer object bound to every single binding point
<graphitemaster> Feels very anti-GL
<imirkin> make sure you get the barriers right :)
<graphitemaster> :D
<graphitemaster> Old work code no-cap used `glMemoryBarrier(~0);` before every draw and dispatch command because no one could figure out the correct barriers and had to ship
<graphitemaster> So I'm doing automatic barriers now
<graphitemaster> Hopefully I get those correct
<imirkin> you're doing glMemoryBarrier(~0) and you're thinking that it's the binding of the same buffer to all binding points which is anti-GL?
<airlied> jekstrand: and llvmpipe (GTF tests)
<graphitemaster> imirkin, :D
<graphitemaster> I'm NOT. The code is because deadlines

<airlied> jekstrand: sample shading and sample decoration on fs inputs in spir-v, got time to consult? :-)
<airlied> ah zmike cc'ed you on the MR already
<zmike> so...given that GTF tests aren't going to be changed before quantum computers make everything we've done obsolete, who would be opposed to adding a thing to mesa's glsl compiler to check the context version profile for non-es and then make #version 100 translate to #version 110?
<jekstrand> airlied: Yeah, zmike's MR is definitely wrong
<zmike> :(
<zmike> so the decoration does need to be set on every variable explicitly?
<danvet> jekstrand, ah maybe git config alias or something like that?
<airlied> zmike: I've had GTF tests fixed before
<zmike> yeah but this is like...every test
<airlied> the question is though whether this is an actual bug in them
<zmike> and also I think it's harder
<airlied> have you built GTF correctly?
<zmike> yep
<airlied> since you have to pick GL or GLES at build time
<airlied> and you get that wrong, things go horribly for you
<zmike> I picked gl

<zmike> which is a strict subset of version 1.50."
<zmike> so it seems to me that in desktop GL contexts, #version 100 could translate to #version 150
<zmike> though it wouldn't validate the same
<zmike> but it would avoid this nonsense

<airlied> I wonder if it's worth asking khronos about the precision quals when using ES shaders on desktop GL
<imirkin> iirc it's supposed to ignore precision
<HdkR> When using GLSL yes, but ESSL is a quirky edge case :D
<HdkR> There's also the edge case of mixing ESSL and GLSL stages in the same program binary
<airlied> imirkin: I think it's clear for GL shaders, not for GLES on GL shaders
<airlied> at least ES2_compat doesn't mention much
<jekstrand> It would be 100% within the spec to ignore qualifiers whenever you're in a desktop context.
<jekstrand> So we can just do that if we want.
<jekstrand> Or we can just add a driconf thing for "no mediump" and add a line to enable it for glcts and cts-runner executables. (-:
* jekstrand knows that's a bad plan
<zmike> I think it's only an issue with lower_precision

<jenatali> Damn, don't think I'm going to be able to make 4.0 before the branchpoint
<imirkin> jenatali: more branchpoints in the future
<imirkin> it's not the last chopper out saigon :)
<jenatali> Yeah I know, I just thought I'd be able to make it
<imirkin> jenatali: what's missing?
<jenatali> fp64
<imirkin> just hook up softfp - should take you 5 mins
<jenatali> Which I think requires the full software lowering (we're missing too many things that don't have their own lowering), which then requires int64
<jenatali> And 64bit varyings between stages, which is... not trivial for me
<imirkin> and then you get GL 4.0, and no one will be the wiser (since no one uses fp64)
<imirkin> hmmmm ... why not just split the varyings into 32-bit components?
<jenatali> Yeah. It's a shame, we do have doubles, mul, div, fma, but we're missing things like rounding/floor/ceil which don't have dedicated lowering (yet)
<jenatali> Yeah. That's the plan. I just need to do it
<imirkin> right ok
<imirkin> nothing hard, just a lot of typing
<jenatali> Yup
ahajda_ has joined #dri-devel
<imirkin> jenatali: "Notably, D3D doesn't support a single varying having components belonging to different streams, so we split up the variables to handle that." -- hm?
<imirkin> how does that work in GL?
<imirkin> oh, by default everything goes into every stream doesn't it...
<jenatali> Mesa/st packs varyings together
<imirkin> hehe
<jenatali> And can pack varyings that are explicitly laid out for different streams into a single varying, turning the stream data into a bitfield
<imirkin> and that packing is for the benefit of xfb, unfortunately
<imirkin> you could make the stream thing be a "key" for the packing
<imirkin> it won't pack some stuff together
<jenatali> Yeah, I thought about changing mesa/st's behavior, but it was simple enough to just unpack it in the backend that I did that
<imirkin> ah ok
<imirkin> digging in the varying packing logic isn't always the most rewarding of tasks...
<imirkin> the only reward you can be sure of is follow-on bugs to whatever you're trying to do :)
<jenatali> Yeah

<graphitemaster> imirkin, HAH, glBindBufferRangeNV with offset in buffer for DISPATCH_INDIRECT_BUFFER and using constant 0 for glDispatchComputeIndirect on NV is quite a lot faster than specifying the offset to DCI
<imirkin> no clue why that'd be the case
<graphitemaster> Looking at the flame graph here, way less CPU time spent in the dispatch call when the offset is 0
<imirkin> i believe you. i just have no clue why that'd matter
<graphitemaster> Validation I guess
<graphitemaster> I mean in the grand scheme of things it does not matter because I'm not limited by this at all in the slightest
<imirkin> i would think that binding and rebinding would be the thing that's slower
<imirkin> but what do i know
<graphitemaster> The nvidia gods are performing miracles as usual.

<airlied> I didn't dig into the others
<zmike> I think that's still just a coincidental fix if I don't export the constbuf cap

<maxzor> What does amdgpu stand for for you? Why is freedesktop in charge of the archives of a whole linux maintainer area?
<FLHerne> maxzor: amdgpu is the kernel module for AMD GPUs
<FLHerne> (from the last several years)
<maxzor> FLHerne, that's what I recently updated on the wikipedia page, there was a link to an obscure xorg amdgpu driver.
<FLHerne> Hm, did that exist? I assumed they just always used xorg-modesetting
<maxzor> But I see a lot of discussions happening on dri-devel mailing lists, and AFAIK the development of amdgpu is at amd rock github
rasterman has quit [Quit: Gettin' stinky!]
<FLHerne> pretty much all the vendor-specific DRI drivers are dead now, no-one needs to optimise 2D perf that much
<FLHerne> maxzor: Which wiki page?
<maxzor> is this a channel for mesa only? are mesa engineers contributing directly to amdgpu?
<imirkin> maxzor: there are some amd-specific mailing lists. dri-devel is the generic-graphics-everything ML
<imirkin> this is a melting pot channel too
<imirkin> there's an amd-specific one in #radeon
<FLHerne> maxzor: The amdgpu code is all upstreamed to the kernel; AMD might do their own development downstream but everything most users use goes through the kernel lists
<FLHerne> for why freedesktop.org hosts the kernel graphics lists -- userspace and kernel graphics drivers have always been very closely coupled, it's often the same people working on both
<FLHerne> less so now the vendors employ giant open-source teams, maybe
<FLHerne> but it still makes sense to do it all in one place

<gawin> anholt: if we don't want to pollute nir just for older hardware, then we could: glsl_to_nir -> nir_to_tgsi -> rewrite instructions -> tgsi_to_nir -> passes -> nir_to_tgsi (such Frankenstein monster)
<gawin> more overheaded on conversion, but we'd skip doing the same optimizations twice (and getting worse result)
