Christian GmeinerI'm currently in the process of cleaning up all the hacks I used to upstream this as quickly as possible. Along the way, I also fixed some issues with 3d, cube, and 2d_array support 😎dEQP-GLES3.functional.texture.format.sized.*.rgba32*Test run totals: Passed: 24/24 (100.0%) Failed: 0/24 (0.0%) Not supported: 0/24 (0.0%) Warnings: 0/24 (0.0%) Waived: 0/24 (0.0%)<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Librem5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Librem5</a>

Christian GmeinerSweet! Using some NIR shader magic, I can also sample 128-bit formats. Under the hood, I'm sampling two separate 64-bit values and combining them within the shader.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Librem5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Librem5</a>

Christian GmeinerMy 128bit format emulation - needed for GLES3 - is starting to pass the first CTS.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Librem5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Librem5</a>

Christian GmeinerI’m seeing every possible tiling pattern in my CTS result image 🙃 Time for a ☕ while I figure out what I’m doing wrong.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Librem5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Librem5</a>

Christian GmeinerLast night, I spent several hours debugging an issue with some CTS tests for a new feature. I couldn't pinpoint the problem and ended up staring at related GPU states until I eventually gave up for the night.The next day, I took another look at my code - and within moments, I spotted the issue, fixed it, and the CTS passed without complaint.dEQP-GLES31.functional.texture.gather.offset.*rgba*Test run totals: Passed: 136/136 (100.0%)<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Librem5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Librem5</a>

Christian GmeinerI took a short break from working on texture offset NIR lowerings to explore hardware-based transform feedback. The reverse engineering isn't fully complete yet, but there's already some progress.dEQP-GLES3.functional.transform_feedback.position.points_*Test run totals: Passed: 2/2 (100.0%) Failed: 0/2 (0.0%) Not supported: 0/2 (0.0%) Warnings: 0/2 (0.0%) Waived: 0/2 (0.0%)<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/etnaviv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#etnaviv</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mesa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mesa</a>
