Alright then, closing in that case - thanks for prompting all of this, btw, Rust-GPU panics would've probably stayed in a pretty bad shape for a while longer if not for #1048 and the ensuing discussions. |

panic!, rustc_codegen_spirv emits aloop {}, but this can be optimized away with spirv-opt due to the AgressiveDCE pass. This PR inserts a memory_barrier inside the loop which prevents it from being removed.This ensures that shaders that panic, ie from out of bounds accesses, will not silently continue execution but hang the app.
Unfortunately the wgpu compute example errors with
UnsupportedInstruction(Function, MemoryBarrier), likely naga does not support barriers.It does work using
create_shader_module_spirvand enabling the featuresFeatures::SPIRV_SHADER_PASSTHROUGH | Features::TIMESTAMP_QUERY_INSIDE_PASSES.Edit:
Replaced with https://github.com/charles-r-earp/rust-gpu/tree/panic-abort.
The idea is for panic! to emit OpKill / OpTerminateInvocation and replace that with a return from the entry point after inlining. Additionally it will use debug_printfln! if available so that it's easier to detect panics while developing.
