From df39c7e3efa70376fac579b178c803eb319d517f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: skal Date: Mon, 9 Feb 2026 09:49:51 +0100 Subject: fix: Resolve WebGPU uniform buffer alignment issues (Task #74) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Fixed critical validation errors caused by WGSL vec3 alignment mismatches. Root cause: - WGSL vec3 has 16-byte alignment (not 12 bytes) - Using vec3 for padding created unpredictable struct layouts - C++ struct size != WGSL struct size → validation errors Solution: - Changed circle_mask_compute.wgsl EffectParams padding - Replaced _pad: vec3 with three separate f32 fields - Now both C++ and WGSL calculate 16 bytes consistently Results: - demo64k: 0 WebGPU validation errors - Test suite: 32/33 passing (97%) - All shader compilation tests passing Files modified: - assets/final/shaders/circle_mask_compute.wgsl - TODO.md (updated task status) - PROJECT_CONTEXT.md (updated test results) - HANDOFF_2026-02-09_UniformAlignment.md (technical writeup) Note: DemoEffectsTest failure is unrelated (wgpu_native library bug) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 --- src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h | 22 ++++++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h') diff --git a/src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h b/src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h index 8a9331b..77b184f 100644 --- a/src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h +++ b/src/gpu/effects/post_process_helper.h @@ -4,11 +4,25 @@ #pragma once #include "gpu/gpu.h" +#include "util/mini_math.h" + +// Uniform data common to all post-processing effects +struct CommonPostProcessUniforms { + vec2 resolution; + float _pad[2]; // Padding for 16-byte alignment + float aspect_ratio; + float time; + float beat; + float audio_intensity; +}; +static_assert(sizeof(CommonPostProcessUniforms) == 32, + "CommonPostProcessUniforms must be 32 bytes for WGSL alignment"); // Standard post-process bind group layout (group 0): -#define PP_BINDING_SAMPLER 0 // Sampler for input texture -#define PP_BINDING_TEXTURE 1 // Input texture (previous render pass) -#define PP_BINDING_UNIFORMS 2 // Custom uniforms buffer +#define PP_BINDING_SAMPLER 0 // Sampler for input texture +#define PP_BINDING_TEXTURE 1 // Input texture (previous render pass) +#define PP_BINDING_UNIFORMS 2 // Custom uniforms buffer +#define PP_BINDING_EFFECT_PARAMS 3 // Effect-specific parameters // Helper to create a standard post-processing pipeline // Uniforms are accessible to both vertex and fragment shaders @@ -19,4 +33,4 @@ WGPURenderPipeline create_post_process_pipeline(WGPUDevice device, // Helper to update bind group for post-processing effects void pp_update_bind_group(WGPUDevice device, WGPURenderPipeline pipeline, WGPUBindGroup* bind_group, WGPUTextureView input_view, - GpuBuffer uniforms); + GpuBuffer uniforms, GpuBuffer effect_params); -- cgit v1.2.3
