Description
Vectors of length greater than 4 should be loadable from ByteAddressBuffers and StructuredBuffers using the standard Load
and Store
methods. These are the templated methods in the case of ByteAddressBuffer. In SM 6.9, such loaded/stored vectors of over 1 element should generate rawBufferVectorLoad
and rawBufferVectorStore
DXIL intrinsics that operate on whole vectors rather than the previous 4 component at a time blocks.
Testing should be in the form of loading types with various shapes and element types involving vectors ranging from 1 to 1024 (though not inclusive) using the different load and store methods. This should include
- long vectors directly
- vectors as members of structs that are not the first element (requires valid offset loading)
- arrays of long vectors
- array of structs containing vectors
- struct of arrays containing vectors
