SPIRV-Cross
SPIRV-Cross is a tool designed for parsing and converting SPIR-V to other shader languages.
Features
- Convert SPIR-V to readable, usable and efficient GLSL
- Convert SPIR-V to readable, usable and efficient Metal Shading Language (MSL) [EXPERIMENTAL]
- Convert SPIR-V to debuggable C++ [EXPERIMENTAL]
- Reflection API to simplify the creation of Vulkan pipeline layouts
- Reflection API to modify and tweak OpDecorations
- Supports "all" of vertex, fragment, tessellation, geometry and compute shaders.
SPIRV-Cross tries hard to emit readable and clean output from the SPIR-V. The goal is to emit GLSL or MSL that looks like it was written by a human and not awkward IR/assembly-like code.
NOTE: Individual features are expected to be mostly complete, but it is possible that certain obscure GLSL features are not yet supported. However, most missing features are expected to be "trivial" improvements at this stage.
Occasionally, missing features is due to glslangValidator's lack of proper support for that feature making testing hard.
Building
SPIRV-Cross has been tested on Linux, OSX and Windows.
Linux and OSX
Just run make
on the command line. A recent GCC (4.8+) or Clang (3.x+) compiler is required as SPIRV-Cross uses C++11 extensively.
Windows
MinGW-w64 based compilation works with make
, and an MSVC 2013 solution is also included.
Usage
Creating a SPIR-V file from GLSL with glslang
glslangValidator -H -V -o test.spv test.frag
Converting a SPIR-V file to GLSL ES
glslangValidator -H -V -o test.spv shaders/comp/basic.comp
./spirv-cross --version 310 --es test.spv
Converting to desktop GLSL
glslangValidator -H -V -o test.spv shaders/comp/basic.comp
./spirv-cross --version 330 test.spv --output test.comp
Disable prettifying optimizations
glslangValidator -H -V -o test.spv shaders/comp/basic.comp
./spirv-cross --version 310 --es test.spv --output test.comp --force-temporary
ABI concerns
SPIR-V headers
The current repository uses the latest SPIR-V and GLSL.std.450 headers. SPIR-V files created from older headers could have ABI issues.
Regression testing
In shaders/ a collection of shaders are maintained for purposes of regression testing.
The current reference output is contained in reference/.
./test_shaders.py shaders
can be run to perform regression testing.
See ./test_shaders.py --help
for more.
Updating regression tests
When legitimate changes are found, use --update
flag to update regression files.
Otherwise, ./test_shaders.py
will fail with error code.
Mali Offline Compiler cycle counts
To obtain a CSV of static shader cycle counts before and after going through spirv-cross, add
--malisc
flag to ./test_shaders
. This requires the Mali Offline Compiler to be installed in PATH.
