Crate spirv_std

spirv-std

Core functions, traits, and more that make up a “standard library” for SPIR-V for use in rust-gpu.

This crate gives a rust-gpu shader access to the required #![spirv(..)] attribute, as well as povide all kinds of APIs that allows a shader to access GPU resources such as textures and buffers. Optionally, through the use of the "glam" feature, it includes some boilerplate trait implementations to make glam vector types compatible with these APIs.

Example

Here is a small excerpt to see what a shader would look like. See source for full details of the shader that generates above image.

use spirv_std::spirv;
use glam::{Vec3, Vec4, vec2, vec3};

#[spirv(fragment)]
pub fn main(
    #[spirv(frag_coord)] in_frag_coord: &Vec4,
    #[spirv(push_constant)] constants: &ShaderConstants,
    output: &mut Vec4,
) {
    let frag_coord = vec2(in_frag_coord.x, in_frag_coord.y);
    let mut uv = (frag_coord - 0.5 * vec2(constants.width as f32, constants.height as f32))
        / constants.height as f32;
    uv.y = -uv.y;

    let eye_pos = vec3(0.0, 0.0997, 0.2);
    let sun_pos = vec3(0.0, 75.0, -1000.0);
    let dir = get_ray_dir(uv, eye_pos, sun_pos);

    // evaluate Preetham sky model
    let color = sky(dir, sun_pos);

    *output = tonemap(color).extend(1.0)
}

Modules

arch

SPIR-V Instrinics

byte_addressable_buffer

Container for an untyped blob of data.

float

Traits and helper functions related to floats.

image

Image types

integer

Traits related to integers.

memory

Types for handling memory ordering constraints for concurrent memory access.

number

Traits and helper functions related to numbers.

ray_tracing

Ray-tracing data types

Macros

Image

A macro for creating SPIR-V OpTypeImage types. Always produces a spirv_std::image::Image<...> type.

ray_query

Constructs an uninitialized ray query variable. Using the syntax let (mut)? <name>. Where name is the name of the ray query variable.

Structs

RuntimeArray

Dynamically-sized arrays in Rust carry around their length as the second half of a tuple. Unfortunately, sometimes SPIR-V provides an unsized array with no way of obtaining its length. Hence, this type represents something very similar to a slice, but with no way of knowing its length.

Sampler

An opaque reference to settings that describe how to access, filter, or sample an image.

Attribute Macros

spirv

Replaces all (nested) occurrences of the #[spirv(..)] attribute with #[cfg_attr(target_arch="spirv", rust_gpu::spirv(..))].
