Translations
This document attempts to document how WGSL translates into the various backends for the cases where the translation is not a direct mapping.
Access Control
HLSL
- ReadOnly ->
ByteAddressBuffer - ReadWrite ->
RWByteAddressBuffer
MSL
- ReadOnly ->
const
SPIR-V
There are two ways this can be achieved in SPIR-V. Either the variable can be
decorated with NonWritable or each member of the struct can be decorated with
NonWritable. We chose to go the struct member route.
- The read-only becomes part of the type in this case. Otherwise, you are treating the readonly type information as part of the variable which is confusing.
- Treating the readonly as part of the variable means we should be deduplicating the types behind the access control, which causes confusing with the type_names and various tracking systems within Tint.
