Walkthrough

The pull request extends Ampere lowering for arithmetic, conversions, reductions, and program capture. It also adds per-image texture sector-layout tracking and uses that state in texture-cache matching, swizzle operations, and accelerated DMA.

Changes: Ampere instruction lowering and capture

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lower arithmetic and conversion instructions
src/shader_recompiler/frontend/ampere/lower_to_maxwell.h, src/tests/video_core/ampere_lowering.cpp, src/tests/video_core/ampere_i2f.cpp
Adds validated double-precision arithmetic and conversions, register-form SGXT, uniform-source I2F, and immediate UIMAD lowering. Register-pressure and call-link checks account for additional operand layouts. Tests check emitted instructions and rejected operands or modifiers.
Extend reduction lowering
src/shader_recompiler/frontend/ampere/lower_to_maxwell.h, src/tests/video_core/ampere_returns.cpp
Global reductions accept validated operation types and signed offsets for register and uniform addresses. REDUX handles signed minimum and maximum with sign-bit transforms. Tests check active-lane results, emitted fields, and offset limits.
Recognize closing self-branches
src/shader_recompiler/frontend/ampere/program_capture.h, src/shader_recompiler/frontend/ampere/lower_to_maxwell.h, src/tests/video_core/ampere_lowering.cpp
Program capture tracks linked calls and recognizes qualifying unconditional self-branches as completion points. Tests cover capture termination and branch conditions.

Texture sector-layout selection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Record and apply image layout state
src/video_core/texture_cache/image_info.h, src/video_core/texture_cache/image_info.cpp, src/video_core/texture_cache/texture_cache.h, src/video_core/texture_cache/texture_cache_base.h, src/video_core/texture_cache/util.cpp, src/tests/video_core/texture_layout.cpp
Image metadata records legacy and known sector-layout state. Cache lookup and insertion derive storage tiling from that metadata. Overlap and subresource matching check layout compatibility. Tests cover descriptor selection, cache matching, and render-target cases.
Select layout for swizzle operations
src/video_core/texture_cache/util.cpp, src/video_core/texture_cache/util.h, src/tests/video_core/texture_layout.cpp, src/tests/CMakeLists.txt
Swizzle and unswizzle operations use layout selected from image metadata, and unswizzle plans retain the legacy-layout flag. Tests cover full-image and subrectangle layouts across pixel sizes.
Use address-specific layout for DMA
src/video_core/engines/maxwell_dma.h, src/video_core/engines/maxwell_dma.cpp, src/video_core/renderer_opengl/gl_rasterizer.h, src/video_core/renderer_opengl/gl_rasterizer.cpp, src/video_core/renderer_vulkan/vk_rasterizer.h, src/video_core/renderer_vulkan/vk_rasterizer.cpp
The rasterizers expose the texture cache’s legacy-layout classification through the DMA interface. Maxwell DMA uses address-specific tiling for block-linear transfers and selects it separately for source and destination addresses.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 05cb0

Some texture and DMA paths can still use the wrong sector order, causing scrambled texture data in the affected game workflows. These core PR paths should be corrected before merge.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 05cb0

The changes affect how texture data is interpreted and copied, but no new permission or isolation bypass was established. Uncertainty remains around layout selection after writeback and DMA regions with overlapping image metadata.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Guest texture descriptors can influence cached image interpretation and software DMA ordering through both rendering backends. The demonstrated propagation concerns guest graphics data; the inspected changes do not establish increased host-memory authority or cross-tenant exposure.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Expanded Ampere lowering validates supported instruction modes and operands before emitting Maxwell instructions. The inspected reduction forms preserve guest GPU-memory operations rather than introducing host-management calls; this does not independently establish runtime GPU sandbox guarantees.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — DMA layout inference examines one byte at the supplied address, ignores unknown layouts, and selects native order when known layouts conflict. Whole-transfer ownership is not established by that query; whether this can violate a valid guest transfer contract remains unresolved rather than a demonstrated security failure.

100-116: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Cover all newly accepted RED type values, not only S32.

The lowering now accepts type values 0-5 for the [URa + offset] RED form and copies them unchanged into bits 20-22. The new test checks only S32 (1). A change that hardcodes the field to 1, or that otherwise mis-encodes another value, would still pass. Parameterize the test over the accepted values 0-5. Assert that bits 20-22 of the lowered instruction equal the input type for each value. Keep the existing S32 MIN case as the regression anchor. The type > 5 bound has no test either. Add a case for that bound once the rejection output of LowerToMaxwell is confirmed.

Review comments at @src/shader_recompiler/frontend/ampere/program_capture.h:
- Around line 38-39: Update the branch-terminator check around opcode 0x947 in
program capture to inspect BRA.DIV mode and the secondary predicate in bits
87–90 before ending capture. Stop only when those conditions show the branch is
a terminator under LowerToMaxwell; otherwise continue capture so the instruction
remains available to lowering.
- Line 28: Update the call-detection logic that sets has_calls to recognize
linked CALL.REL.NOINC instructions and track their targets as calls. Keep this
distinct from the predicated forward-transfer case so capture continues through
a callee’s self-branch to its RET.

Review comments at @src/video_core/texture_cache/image_info.h:
- Line 48: Update the FindImage and FindDMAImage guest-memory decode paths so
they carry the requested sector layout through RefreshContents and
UnswizzleImage, while preserving the cached image’s storage layout. Ensure
IsSubCopy or the relevant lookup compatibility checks do not allow an
incompatible layout to be decoded using the cached native layout, and do not
resolve or overwrite cached layout metadata for GPU-modified data.

Review comments at @src/video_core/texture_cache/texture_cache.h:
- Around line 1587-1588: Update the layout selection around ForEachImageInRegion
so DMA sector order is based on the image relevant to the DMA range, not any
overlapping cached image. Establish an unambiguous layout for that range; if the
relevant image cannot be identified, do not choose legacy order merely because a
legacy image overlaps.
