- A retrace that exports MOBILEGL_PIPE_VERIFY=1 at a library configured without
-DMOBILEGL_PIPE_VERIFY=ON is a no-op: the frames still match their goldens and the
case reports green having compared nothing. run_trace_case.cmake now demands the
evidence whenever the variable is set to anything but 0/false - mobilegl.log must
exist, must carry "MGPipe: verify armed", and must carry neither
Fatal{PipeVerifyDiffer nor Fatal{UnmigratedPipeInput. With the variable unset the
script is byte-for-byte the old one.
- The Fatal scan is not redundant with the replay's exit status:
MOBILEGL_PIPE_VERIFY_FATAL=0 is the supported triage configuration, and there a
divergence is logged and counted rather than aborted, so the run would finish 0
with its own report sitting unread in the log.
- LABELS retrace on both registrations: the lane was selectable only by regex, so
`ctest -L retrace --no-tests=error` - the spelling that reds a lane which
registered nothing - could not be written at all.
- "verify": true on eight cases (the five 180s cases plus minecraft-1.21.4-in-world,
minecraft-1.21.4-fabric-sodium-in-world and improved-transparency-minecraft-26.3),
and --format github-verify-matrix over that subset: 16 entries, against the full
lane's 77. The verify build compares at every verb boundary and again at every
accessor read, which the design budgets at 5-10x, so the per-push job runs the
subset and the full sweep is a phase-exit / workflow_dispatch run.
- The flag is validated in the manifest loader, not at the matrix, so a non-boolean
or a verify case excluded from CI is a loud error in every consumer instead of a
subset that is quietly one case short.
- PLAN-B.md §8.2 and appendix B add a batch of new runtime switches
(MOBILEGL_PIPE_PUSH / _VERIFY / _STATS / _LEGACY_MEMOS / _TEXEL_RETAIN_MB /
_INDEX_MIRROR_MB, plus MOBILEGL_IPC_* later), and §11 P0 wants them parsed beside
the existing ones. Today every knob that has to reach an Android replay costs an
edit in five files - run_android_retrace_local.py, trace-replay-ci.sh,
TraceReplayActivity's request record, the JNI marshalling, and the setenv block in
trace_replay_core.cpp. That per-knob tax is what this replaces: one extra,
`--es mobilegl_env "K=V;K=V"`, carries all of them.
- Applied last, immediately before dlopen(libMobileGL.so), so it can also override
the dedicated fields above it - MobileGL's config is read during the load, and an
escape hatch that cannot beat the defaults is not one. An entry with no '=' unsets
the variable, which is the only way to clear a default the marshalling sets.
- The existing per-knob flags stay: they carry semantics beyond a setenv (use_angle
also selects a variant, the dump lists are joined, DirectVulkan forces the
R11G11B10F fallback), and rewriting them as env strings would move that logic into
the callers.
- Surface: --env / MOBILEGL_TRACE_ENV in trace-replay-ci.sh, repeatable --env
KEY=VALUE in run_android_retrace_local.py, `mobilegl_env` intent extra,
Request::envOverrides.
- The two-level parse now lives in trace_env_overrides.hpp, beside the semicolon
splitter it shares with the texture and FBO dump lists, and
tools/trace_replay/trace_env_overrides_test.cpp pins it: the empty entries a
trailing ';' leaves behind must not become unsetenv(""), `K=` must stay a Set of
the empty string rather than an Unset (a knob read with getenv() != nullptr sees
those as opposite answers), and only the FIRST '=' may separate, or a value
carrying '=' is truncated without a word of warning. The whole MOBILEGL_PIPE_*
batch rides on this parse, and the only lane that exercised it end to end was an
on-device retrace, which would have reported a splitting bug as "the knob had no
effect".
- The check is built and RUN at build time and mobilegl_trace_replay depends on it,
so `cmake --build ... --target mobilegl_trace_replay` - the exact command of
test.yml's "Build trace replay" job, which never invokes ctest - runs it. It is
assert-free on purpose: that lane configures Release, and <cassert> under NDEBUG
would compile every check into a green run that checked nothing. Negative control:
swapping find('=') for rfind('=') fails 2 checks, and keeping the splitter's empty
entries fails 2 more.
Initialize the desktop replay Request from the three iterationRP environment flags before loading MobileGL. Without this, the Request defaults caused the replay core to unset CI's exported flags, leaving all repairs disabled despite the workflow configuration.
iterationRP's Program 203 declares shared vec2 prefixSumCache[32] for a
512-invocation workgroup indexed by gl_SubgroupID; any device narrower
than 16 lanes partitions into more than 32 subgroups and the pack writes
shared memory out of bounds (heap corruption on lavapipe's CPU
rasterizer, ssim 0.028 on the CI retrace). Fix it where the fault lies -
in the fixture - and keep the GL contract sound everywhere else:
- FixIterationRPSubgroupScratchPass: fingerprint-gated SPIR-V pass that
grows exactly that array to ceil(invocations/width) entries on sub-16-lane devices; every other module passes through byte-identical.
- DeriveNumSubgroupsPass stays default-on for the Adreno topology bug
and is made spec-sound: pipelines request REQUIRE_FULL_SUBGROUPS
whenever the workgroup shape makes the flag legal (computeFullSubgroups
enabled, local_size_x a multiple of the native width, subgroup count
within maxComputeWorkgroupSubgroups).
- EmulateSubgroupsPass: 32-lane virtual-subgroup lowering kept in-tree
as a last resort, enabled only by MOBILEGL_MAGMA_EMULATE_SUBGROUP=1 on
devices with no native subgroup support; fails closed on extended
subgroup instructions and on modules whose added scratch would exceed
maxComputeSharedMemorySize.
- IterationRPFirstReductionScenario skips gracefully outside the pack's
16..256-lane source domain; the new IterationRPScratchFixScenario runs
the fixture-shaped reduction on any width and asserts the exact
width-independent total. DriverPost keeps reporting FAIL on
out-of-domain devices.
- Program203 -> IterationRP rename throughout; the per-trace
num_subgroups_quirk plumbing is removed from the trace replayer, JNI
chain, and CI workflows.
minecraft-1.21.4-fabric-iris-bsl-esc-menu-854: Minecraft 1.21.4 Fabric +
Sodium + Iris + BSL 10.1.3 through Espryt on Mali-G77, paused at the ESC
menu over the BSL-blurred world, captured at 854x480 through the FCL
trace-capture skill. The trimmed trace keeps the whole session preamble
deliberately: the 107669b3 bug class is triggered while Iris BUILDS the
pipeline (a by-name texture call swapping the active unit's binding under
the sync memo), and the pause menu afterwards is where its damage is
legible - every glyph alpha-discards against the zeroed lightmap while
the button frames survive.
Ablation-proven as a net before landing: against a build with both layers
of 107669b3 reverted the case fails at ssim 0.949284 and the diff image
is text and only text - menu title, all button labels, the tutorial
toast; against the fixed library it matches the golden exactly, and
Magma passes the same golden at 0.998402 with no alternate needed.
Replays in about a minute per backend on llvmpipe/lavapipe (the 1.3M-call
preamble; well under the timeout and smaller than several existing
fixtures). Existing fixtures spot-checked green.
Moves snapshot capture entirely into the apitrace retrace layer (glReadPixels + PNG encode). Drops the MOBILEGL_PRESENT_DUMP_PATH / MOBILEGL_PRESENT_STATS / MOBILEGL_PRESENT_DUMP_CALL / MOBILEGL_PRESENT_CURRENT_CALL / MOBILEGL_TRACE_CURRENT_CALL_OVERRIDE plumbing from Config, ConfigLoader, VulkanRenderer (GetPresentedDumpPixel/WritePresentedDumpPpm + present-stats readback), the EGL/GLX/Android ws shims, and the Android trace_replay_core PPM reader.
DirectVulkan ReadPixels on the default framebuffer now remaps raw swapchain pixels (top-left origin, preTransform-rotated) to GL orientation (bottom-left origin) so the retrace snapshot matches the golden; SwapchainObject also resizes the default-FBO stencil attachment to the swapchain extent to fix GL_INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION under the glReadPixels completeness check.
Registration now documents the trace_cases.json registry (the CMakeLists /
apk.yml instructions were stale). Adds the field-tested guidance from
authoring the Create fixtures: in-tree apitrace fork requirements (frametrim
DSA/multi-bind, persistent-map shadowing) and the Windows wgltrace wrapper,
frozen-world + unfocused-window capture discipline, late-frame selection,
trim verification, brotli repack (with the stale-archive trap), golden
content verification, Android signing/stale-package/emulator-flake and
stale-result pitfalls.

Two 1.21.1 NeoForge Create in-world captures facing water wheels and a
large cogwheel, one per flywheel backend (/flywheel backend indirect and
instanced). The indirect trace exercises the compute scatter/cull
pipeline, glMultiDrawElementsIndirect with GPU-written commands, and
draw-parameter emulation; captured with persistent-map shadowing so the
unflushed scatter descriptors Flywheel writes are recorded. Both trimmed
to a single frame and brotli-repacked (~7 MiB each).
