The Minecraft-shaped driver benchmark could only be run from a desktop shell
against a desktop driver, which is the wrong machine: MobileGL exists to run on
mobile GPUs, and nothing said what its translation costs there. This puts the
same cases on an Android device, both in the plugin's POST screen and from a
shell, and adds the native-driver baseline they have to be read against.
The cases move into DriverBenchCases.inc so both harnesses run byte-identical
bodies - the desktop program resolving entry points from one EGL provider, and
DriverBenchJni.cpp calling MobileGL's frontend in-process. The JNI file binds
every gl*/egl* name to MG_Impl by macro rather than by linkage: this library
legitimately has the platform libEGL and libGLESv3 in its own lookup scope, and
a benchmark that quietly measured the device driver instead of the translation
layer would have looked like very good news.
Frames are now closed with a fence wait instead of glFinish. MobileGL implements
glFinish and glFlush as no-ops, so the old loop timed submit-plus-GPU on a native
driver and submit-only on a MobileGL backend, and the two numbers did not
describe the same work.
To measure a device's own driver the cases needed to be expressible in GLES:
ESSL 3.20 twins of the four shaders (chosen at runtime from GL_VERSION, since
MobileGL is deliberately still fed desktop GLSL - translating it is the thing
under test), a multi-draw hook that loops DrawElementsBaseVertex where the
multi-draw entry point does not exist, and an EGL bootstrap that falls back from
desktop GL to GLES 3. The binary cross-compiles for arm64 unchanged.
BenchService hosts each run in its own process and exits afterwards. That is not
caution: the backend is latched from MOBILEGL_BACKEND_TYPE at initialization, so
Espryt and Magma can never share a process, and Espryt's teardown terminates the
process-default EGL display, which would take the POST activity's own EGL
objects with it.
Running it found that Magma could not create a windowless context on Mali at
all - CreateInstance required VK_EXT_headless_surface, which no mobile driver
here exposes, and aborted the process. The Xlib path already probes and falls
back to a hidden window for the same reason on NVIDIA; Android now probes too
and hands the WSI an AImageReader's ANativeWindow, a real producer surface
attached to no display whose images are never acquired. DriverPost reports the
extension's absence as a WARN so the fallback is visible rather than silent.
Measured on a Mali-G77 MC9 (native / Espryt / Magma, ns per operation):
5495 chunk draws 14397 / 36934 / 33763, the 26.2 per-draw uniform-range pattern
13710 / 31205 / 21252, sodium-style multi-draw 256956 / 238389 / 209527. The
translation costs about 2.4x per draw here against 5-9x on the desktop, because
the mobile driver's own per-call cost dwarfs it - and both backends beat the
native driver on multi-draw, which it has to emulate.
Desktop unit tests 421/421; the POST screen and both Run Bench buttons verified
on the device.
Desktop Linux GL apps (GLFW/LWJGL, glxgears, anything X11) create contexts
through GLX, and MobileGL only spoke EGL - the two exported glX symbols were
proc-address stubs that could resolve GL entry points but never produce a
context. GLXImpl is the missing sibling of WGLImpl/CGLImpl: the same
window-system-binding pattern, calling the internal MG_Impl::EGLImpl namespace
directly.
The surface covers exactly what GLFW 3.4 resolves via dlsym plus the legacy
visual API: FBConfig enumeration mirrors the two EGLState configs (stencil-8
first so stencil-wanting choosers land on it), glXGetVisualFromFBConfig answers
with the screen's default visual (falling back to any 24-bit TrueColor one),
and glXCreateContextAttribsARB maps the ARB attribs onto EGL context attribs
the way WGL's Ext_CreateContextAttribsARB does - profile mask only emitted for
3.2+ or an explicit profile request, since that bit is what keys MobileGL's
relaxed-semantics compatibility mode. Legacy glXCreateContext/CreateNewContext
hand out 3.3 compatibility contexts, matching wglCreateContext.
Drawables follow the WGL HWND model: the GLXWindow is the X window itself, the
EGL window surface is created lazily on first MakeCurrent and cached per XID,
and the GLX layer owns size discovery per the platform-layer contract - it
pushes changes through EGLImpl::ResizePlatformWindowSurface, polling
XGetGeometry on MakeCurrent and on swaps throttled to 250ms so a fast-swapping
app is not paying a server round trip per frame. libX11 is dlopen'd at runtime
like everywhere else in the tree; Xlib.h is already in every TU via the vulkan
include, so XVisualInfo gets an ABI mirror struct (Xutil.h needs the Bool and
Status macros that Includes.h deliberately pops) and the caller's XFree pairs
with our malloc.
glXGetProcAddress now resolves glX names from the export table before falling
through to the shared GL resolver, which previously returned nullptr for every
glX extension entry point - GLFW requires glXCreateContextAttribsARB and
glXSwapIntervalEXT to arrive that way.
Verified with a smoke test replaying GLFW's exact call sequence (dlsym-only
resolution, manual FBConfig filtering, 3.2 core forward-compatible context,
glXCreateWindow, 60 swapped frames, clean glGetError) on both backends against
the real NVIDIA driver, then with Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.21.4+Fabric+Sodium and
26.2-snapshot-6 reaching in-world rendering on both Espryt and Magma.
glVertexAttribLFormat validated its arguments and then refused unconditionally
with "64-bit vertex attributes are not supported", so
direct_state_access.vertex_arrays_attribute_format failed every GL_DOUBLE
subcase on both backends - the format never landed, the draw fetched whatever
the attribute held before, and the captured values came back as reinterpreted
garbage.
The attribute is now real state. IsLong is its own bit rather than being
inferred from Float64, because glVertexAttribFormat(GL_DOUBLE) also reads
doubles - it just asks for them converted to float - so the type alone cannot
tell the two apart. It participates in the format comparison, so an L-format
call over a plain one still bumps the version, and glVertexAttribPointer clears
it inside the mutation block so the clear and the bump stay atomic.
GL_VERTEX_ATTRIB_ARRAY_LONG stops being hardcoded false, and the pname is now
accepted by the attribute queries at all.
Support is detected, never assumed. SupportsFloat64VertexAttributes comes from
VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures::shaderFloat64 on DirectVulkan and is false on
DirectGLES - not a driver question there and never will be, since ES has no
GL_DOUBLE vertex format and ESSL has no fp64 type to consume one with. A backend
without it declines in the entry point, with the GL error and a log line naming
the reason, rather than accepting state no draw could honour. Both cases get a
DriverPost row so the loss is named at startup instead of at draw setup.
On DirectVulkan the attribute deliberately does not use VK_FORMAT_R64*_SFLOAT:
those are optional and lavapipe advertises zero features for all four of them.
It is fetched as its 32-bit word pair (R32G32_UINT / R32G32B32A32_UINT) and
bitcast back to double in the shader by a new SPIR-V pass, which is bit-exact
and needs no format capability at all. The pass re-declares the input as uvec2 /
uvec4, demotes the original variable to a Private global and seeds it once at
the top of the entry point, so every existing load keeps its id and its double
type and no other instruction is rewritten. Both halves branch on nothing but
"is this attribute long", so they cannot disagree - and if the pass ever fails,
the assertion fires rather than letting a UINT format sit under a double input.
The pointer types are all created before any variable that names them and the
demoted variable is moved after them, since the types-and-variables section may
not forward-reference a type.
dvec3/dvec4 are declined rather than fetched wrong: six or eight uint32
components have no single VkFormat, and GL spreads such an input over two
attribute locations, which the location-per-index model here does not express.
Fixes vertex_arrays_attribute_format on Magma (369/371). On Espryt it stays
failing, now as a detected and explained decline rather than a blanket refusal.
Every program pipeline entry point was an export stub, and the stub macro's
`return (type)1` made glIsProgramPipeline answer GL_TRUE for anything - including
the names glGenProgramPipelines had never written. All four
direct_state_access.program_pipelines cases failed.
ProgramPipelineObject holds what GL 4.6 core 7.4 says a pipeline is: a program
reference per shader stage, the active program glProgramUniform* addresses, a
validate status and an info log. Its validate status starts false, unlike
ProgramObject's, because a pipeline that has never been validated must report
GL_VALIDATE_STATUS as 0.
The name rules follow the shape queries and transform feedbacks already use, and
which the CTS checks first: glGenProgramPipelines only RESERVES a name and
glIsProgramPipeline answers GL_FALSE for it; the object appears on first bind, or
immediately from glCreateProgramPipelines. Map membership is object existence -
a pipeline, unlike a transform feedback, has no stateful default object zero, so
no everBound flag is needed.
glGet(GL_PROGRAM_PIPELINE_BINDING) reports the real binding now instead of a
hardcoded zero whose comment said the entry points were stubbed.
This is the state half only. program_pipelines_functional needs mixed-stage
rendering - a vertex-only and a fragment-only program drawn together - and stays
failing; glCreateShaderProgramv is deliberately left stubbed until that lands, so
nothing can half-work in between.
Takes program_pipelines_creation, _defaults and _errors from failing to passing
on both backends.
Neither target API has GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE: ESSL has no rectangle sampler, and
Vulkan's SPIR-V environment does not allow Dim::Rect. Both emulate it on a plain 2D
texture, and the two differ in exactly one way - a rectangle lookup addresses texels
where a 2D one addresses [0,1].
That one difference now lives in one SPIR-V pass, so neither backend has to know about
it: every lookup taking normalized coordinates gets its coordinate divided by the size
the texture reports, and the image type is then rewritten to 2D. Magma had no rectangle
handling at all - it fed Dim::Rect straight to Vulkan, which read the texel coordinates
as normalized and sampled the edge, so all fifteen KHR-GL40.texture_gather.*-2drect
cases came back holding the clear colour.
This replaces the ESSL text rewrite that did the same divide for DirectGLES only. Doing
it in the module instead is both shorter and stricter: the pass resolves an operation's
image type through the sampled-image and pointer wrappers rather than matching a
sampler name in generated source, so it cannot be fooled by an expression where it
expected an identifier, and it needs no help from the frontend reflection to know which
samplers were rectangles.
Still declined, as before: the Dref *sample* forms, whose coordinate carries the compare
value in its last component, and the projective ones, where the divide would have to
happen after the perspective divide. texelFetch is deliberately untouched - integer
texel coordinates mean the same thing on both targets.
KHR-GL40.texture_gather: Magma 66 failures -> 2, Espryt stays at 75/75.
Implements GL timer queries end to end: a frontend query registry
(modeled on the sync module - mutex-guarded objects wrapping opaque
backend handles behind optional function pointers) serving
glGenQueries/glBeginQuery/glEndQuery(GL_TIME_ELAPSED)/glQueryCounter
(GL_TIMESTAMP)/glGetQueryObject*/glGetQueryiv with GL 3.3 error
semantics and a graceful zero-result fallback when a backend cannot
time.
DirectGLES backs spans with GL_EXT_disjoint_timer_query (context-
generation-stamped handles, bounded result waits). DirectVulkan gets a
VkTimerQueryManager: per-frame-in-flight timestamp query pools reset at
command-buffer begin (outside render passes), records harvested by
frame serial before their pool recycles, elapsed = masked tick delta x
timestampPeriod; handles are stamped with a renderer generation that
also now guards fence syncs across renderer recreation. GL_QUERY_
COUNTER_BITS reports 0 unless the live backend can actually time
(dynamic IsTimerQuerySupported hook), and a failed blocking read keeps
the handle alive so the real value stays reachable once the frame
submits.
GL_ARB_timer_query is advertised only when the device supports timing
and MOBILEGL_DISABLE_TIMERQUERY is unset - LWJGL keys Minecraft's F3
'GPU: x%' line off exactly that extension string; verified on device
(Adreno 830) on both backends.

Opening a MobileGL plugin APK now shows a POST screen that probes the
device's GLES and Vulkan drivers independently against MobileGL's
expectations - a device may satisfy only one backend - and reports a
per-backend verdict (OK / DEGRADED / UNSUPPORTED) with per-check rows.
The GLES probe builds its own ES3 pbuffer context on the system driver
and reuses FillInGLESCapabilities, including the indirect-draw
gl_InstanceID semantics probe; the Vulkan probe checks instance/device
requirements and the optional features each DirectVulkan path degrades
without. Results serialize as ASCII-safe JSON through a JNI entry in
libMobileGL.so; PostActivity renders them and caches the run per
process (single-flight, rotation-safe). PluginActivity keeps its
NoDisplay stub but the launcher entry moves to the POST screen; FCL
plugin discovery reads application meta-data and is unaffected.

Create 6 / Flywheel 1.0.6 now renders correctly with both flywheel:instancing
and flywheel:indirect on DirectGLES and DirectVulkan (verified in-game on
Adreno 830: waterwheels and cogwheels solid, animated, correct pairing, no
crashes across all four combinations).
- MG_State/MG_Impl: sync explicitly-ranged SSBO bindings of FLUSH_EXPLICIT
persistent maps to the backend before compute dispatches. Flywheel writes
its scatter-copy descriptors into the staging ring's persistent map and
never flushes that span (UB per spec, works on drivers whose maps alias
GPU-visible memory); our maps alias the CPU shadow, so the descriptors
never reached the GPU: the scatter compute copied nothing (GLES: empty
draw commands) or stale garbage (Vulkan: wild indirect commands ending in
VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST).
- MG_Impl/MG_Backend: real glFenceSync objects backed by backend fences
(GLES: native ES syncs guarded by context generation and owner thread;
Vulkan: buffer-manager frame serials), replacing always-signaled stubs
that let Flywheel reclaim staging memory the GPU still reads.
- MG_Backend/DirectGLES: compute dispatches now run the same per-program
resource sync as draws (uniform-block bindings and sampler units must be
re-established through the API because layout(binding) is stripped from
transpiled ESSL) and rebind texture units afterwards; the cull shader
used to read a stale _FlwFrameUniforms binding and the depth-pyramid
downsample sampled a stale unit-0 texture, zeroing the Hi-Z pyramid and
occlusion-culling all Flywheel geometry. Image uniforms are excluded from
glUniform1i (ES bakes their unit via layout(binding)); image-unit sync is
clamped to the device limit; eliminated/SSBO-classified uniform blocks
are skipped.
- MG_Backend/DirectGLES: gl_BaseInstance in native indirect draws reads the
GPU-written command buffer through an injected mg_IndirectParams SSBO
view addressed per draw instead of the zero CPU shadow; layout(binding)
is preserved for SSBO/image declarations (ES has no API rebinding for
them); the ES context ownership claim moved to a global atomic owner
thread with an EGL ground-truth check, and deferred buffer op state is
mutex-guarded, so ops cannot silently no-op after context migration.
- MG_Backend/DirectVulkan: new RebaseInstanceIndexPass rewrites vertex
InstanceIndex loads to (InstanceIndex - BaseInstance). glslang's relaxed
Vulkan mode aliases gl_InstanceID to InstanceIndex, which includes
firstInstance, but GL's gl_InstanceID is zero-based - draws with nonzero
baseInstance paired meshes with wrong instance data (cogwheel drawn as a
waterwheel, another wheel collapsed invisible). Gated on the
shaderDrawParameters device feature. Sampled-read barriers additionally
cover the compute stage (the Hi-Z downsample samples the depth
attachment from compute), and short uniform-buffer ranges keep the
existing zero-padding.

- Advertise ARB_gpu_shader5 / ARB_multi_bind / ARB_shading_language_420pack /
ARB_vertex_attrib_binding / ARB_shader_image_size so LWJGL reports
SUPPORTS_INDIRECT.
- New LowerDrawParametersPass demotes DrawIndex/BaseInstance/BaseVertex
builtins to Private globals (mg_DrawID/mg_BaseInstance/mg_BaseVertex) for
the ESSL transpile; SPIRV-Cross otherwise throws for ES profiles. The
program manager promotes the emitted globals to uniforms and feeds them
per (sub-)draw.
- Indirect draws now execute natively on the GPU (glDrawElementsIndirect /
glDrawArraysIndirect per command) when an indirect buffer is bound, so
compute-written command fields (Flywheel culling updates instanceCount)
are honored; detects GL_EXT_base_instance and falls back to the CPU loop
when the command's baseInstance cannot be consumed natively.
- Sync SSBO binding points for graphics draws, not just compute (Flywheel
vertex shaders read instance data from SSBOs).

Replace the application-specific PackPhotonSharedVec3Memory GLSL regex
patch with a general DecomposeWorkgroupVec3Pass SPIR-V optimization pass.
The new pass decomposes vec3/ivec3/uvec3/bvec3 Workgroup (shared) memory
variables into scalar arrays (e.g. shared vec3 arr[N][M] -> shared float
arr[N][M][3]), rewriting whole-vector loads/stores into per-component
scalar loads/stores. Component-level accesses (e.g. arr[i].x) are
unchanged since a trailing component index into a float[3] yields the
same scalar pointer as it did for a vec3.
Unlike the regex hack, the pass is application-agnostic: it does not
match on variable names, array dimensions, or shader pack identity, and
runs at the SPIR-V level before SPIRV-Cross decompilation.
Registered in SanitizeAndOptimizeBinary after AggressiveDCE so dead
workgroup accesses are already eliminated. Asserts on unsupported
OpAtomic*/OpCopyMemory targeting vec3 workgroup pointers.
Adds ProgramUtilTest.DecomposeWorkgroupVec3InSpirvPass covering array
declaration, +=, whole load/store, component access, and row-copy loop.
