Extend BLASBuildOptions with a device-local AABB buffer filled via a staging
copy + barrier (standing in for a GPU compute producer) fed into the new
device-address BuildProcedural/RefitProcedural. Asserts the build/refit
succeed, the in-place UPDATE keeps the AS handle + blasAddr, the host
aabbBuffer is never allocated (proof of zero-copy), and the validation layer
reports no errors.

Add zero-copy procedural BLAS overloads that take the AABB build input
straight from an existing device buffer instead of memcpy-ing a host span
through Mesh::aabbBuffer — the input-source companion to #36's refit work.
A GPU compute producer (e.g. a GPU-resident particle system) can now feed a
moving procedural BLAS that builds/refits each frame with no host round-trip.
Vulkan: new BuildProcedural(VkDeviceAddress, count, ...) and
RefitProcedural(VkDeviceAddress, count, ...) feed the device address directly
into VkAccelerationStructureGeometryAabbsDataKHR; the host-span path is
refactored to share RecordProceduralBuildFromAddress and is otherwise
unchanged.
WebGPU: device-buffer BuildProcedural/RefitProcedural copy the boxes GPU->GPU
into the mesh heap (new wgpuRegisterMeshBLASDeviceAabbs / wgpuRefitMeshBLAS-
DeviceAabbs bridge fns) and wrap them in a single root leaf bounded by a
caller-supplied worldBounds — no wasm round-trip, blasAddr stable across refit.

Exercises the real hardware AS-build path: builds and refits triangle
and procedural BLASes with fast-build/fast-trace + allow-update flags
via one-time command buffers, asserting the requested flags land, that
an allowUpdate refit keeps the same AS handle/blasAddr (in-place
UPDATE), that the no-update / topology-change fallback still produces a
valid BLAS, and that the validation layer reports zero errors.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mesh::Build / BuildProcedural now take an RTBuildOptions { preference,
allowUpdate }. `preference` maps to PREFER_FAST_TRACE (default) or
PREFER_FAST_BUILD; `allowUpdate` sets ALLOW_UPDATE so the BLAS can be
refit later.
Adds Mesh::Refit / RefitProcedural: when the original build opted into
allowUpdate and the topology is unchanged, they record an in-place
UPDATE-mode build (src == dst) — much cheaper than a rebuild, and the
AS handle + blasAddr are preserved so TLAS instances stay valid. They
fall back to a full rebuild otherwise. The shared build tail also now
destroys a stale AS handle on re-Build (previously leaked) and guards
the in-place update with an AS read→write barrier.
The portable RTBuildPreference/RTBuildOptions types and Refit methods
also exist on the WebGPU backend for API symmetry; the software BVH has
no hardware AS, so the preference is a no-op and a "refit" rebuilds the
BVH (re-registering the handle).
Also adds Device::validationErrorCount, bumped by the debug-messenger
callback on ERROR-severity messages, so tests can assert a Vulkan
operation produced no validation errors.

Regression test for the procedural BLAS path: the same 3x3x3 grid of
unit-box AABBs runs through a PROCEDURAL_HIT_GROUP_KHR group whose GLSL
intersection shader (reportIntersectionEXT) turns each box into a
radius-1 sphere, the any-hit shader punches the spherical-checkerboard
cut-out (visible proof non-opaque geometry runs any-hit), and the
closest-hit shades per-instance tints — the WebGPU example behavior
reproduced natively. Fixed camera in raygen.glsl; the WebGPU/DOM path is
unchanged.

Adds the native counterpart of the WebGPU Mesh::BuildProcedural: uploads
the boxes as a 24-byte-stride VkAabbPositionsKHR-compatible device buffer
(AS-build-input read-only + device address) and builds the BLAS from one
VK_GEOMETRY_TYPE_AABBS_KHR geometry. opaque maps to
VK_GEOMETRY_OPAQUE_BIT_KHR, default-false semantics matching the WebGPU
path so any-hit shaders run. The BLAS sizing/create/build tail is factored
into a geometry-type-agnostic helper shared with the triangle path; no
TLAS/instance changes needed.

Sway delivers pointer events in surprising orders around input-device
hot-plug — observed: a second wl_pointer.leave after focus was already
cleared, which crashed in PointerListenerHandleLeave (null deref), and
motion/button would crash the same way if an enter never matched one of
our surfaces. Early-return instead. Found while end-to-end-testing the
scroll chain for #32 with a zwlr_virtual_pointer_v1 injector.

Window::onMouseScroll now fires on every backend and speaks one unit:
signed whole detents packed in the uint32 payload, +1 = wheel down
(DOM deltaY sign).
- Wayland: implement the previously-stubbed PointerListenerHandleAxis —
vertical axis only, wl_fixed_to_double / 15 (libinput's units-per-
detent), sub-detent remainder accumulated and reset on pointer leave.
- Win32: add the missing WM_MOUSEWHEEL case — -GET_WHEEL_DELTA_WPARAM /
WHEEL_DELTA with a remainder accumulator for free-spinning wheels.
- DOM: dom-env.js normalizes WheelEvent.deltaY per deltaMode (100px /
3 lines / 1 page per detent) with the same remainder scheme, so wasm
delivers the identical unit instead of raw browser-specific deltas.
- Document the contract on Window::onMouseScroll.
- tests/MouseScroll: compositor-free regression test driving the
Wayland axis handler directly.

Five pillars, four colored point lights; closest-hit emits one shadow ray
per light from the same invocation (raysPerPixel = 4, maxDepth = 2), so up
to four rays per pixel rtAccumulate in a single SHADE pass — the contention
case #30 exists for. Each pillar casts four separable colored shadows; an
accumulator race or capacity drop shows as flickering dark noise or a
missing shadow color. Two frames a second apart diff at 2 px / 1.85 M
(last-ulp CAS ordering), confirming no lost updates.

wfAccum becomes array<atomic<u32>> (4 slots/pixel, f32 bit patterns — same
16 B/pixel footprint) and rtAccumulate CASes each channel, so N rays for one
pixel may resolve in the same SHADE pass without the read-modify-write
racing. GENERATE clears with atomicStore (bitcast(0.0) == 0u); RESOLVE
atomicLoads + bitcasts the vec4 it hands runResolve.
Capacity half: RTPass::raysPerPixel (default 1) scales the wavefront
ray/hit/payload buffers to raysPerPixel·W·H rays per bounce so the
per-light emits actually fit instead of being dropped by rtEmitRay's
capacity guard. The accumulator stays per-pixel.
No flag-gating: uncontended the CAS succeeds first try — RTStress SHADE
stays at its documented ~1.0 ms and master-vs-branch renders are
byte-identical, so single-ray consumers pay nothing.

RT→rgba16float→threshold→blur→composite, end-to-end proof of the three
primitives. threshold/blur run from onBeforeUpdate (one submit each) so the
storage-write→sampled-read dependency gets WebGPU's per-submit barrier
(there is none between dispatches within a compute pass); the composite is a
UI custom shader so it owns the canvas ping-pong. Documents the Vulkan
symmetry (gap 4): the native present path records passes generically and
barriers between them, so the same chain is wireable today.

Adds the minimal WebGPU-backend surface an HDR bloom/post chain needs:
1. wgpuCreateStorageImage2D + StorageImage2D<>: runtime rgba16float (or
other format) textures with STORAGE_BINDING|TEXTURE_BINDING usage, no
CompressedTextureAsset upload — GPU-produced HDR targets.
2. UICustomBindingKind::StorageTexture (kind 5): write-only storage-texture
binding carrying a texel format (the freed UICustomBinding::format byte),
wired through all three binding paths (UI custom / RT / plain compute).
Float textures already sample via SampledTexture (sampleType float).
3. PipelineRTWebGPU::Init(..., hdrOutputFormat): RESOLVE writes the linear
accumulator into a user rgba16float texture (RTPass::outTexHandle)
instead of the rgba8unorm canvas, leaving the composite→swapchain pass to
the app. Default RGBA8Unorm keeps the canvas path byte-identical.
Existing RT examples updated for the _pad→format field rename; the default
paths are unchanged (verified RTStress builds + renders).

Adds an 8^3 = 512-instance TLAS pick test that shoots one analytically
determined ray through a rayQuery=true PlainComputeShader and checks the
read-back committed hit (customIndex 484, t 40.75). 512 instances sit in
the < 8193 regime that the hardcoded 16384-leaf start used to miss, so the
example fails fast if the shim regresses. Verified in Firefox/WebGPU:
"[RayQueryPick] PASS".
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The software rayQuery shim's _rqTraverseTlas detected BVH leaves with a
compile-time constant TLAS_BVH_LEAVES_START = 16384 - 1, while the actual
TLAS sweep tree is built at depth log2(next_pow2(instanceCount)). For any
scene with fewer than 8193 instances the padded leaf count is far below
16384, so no node index ever reached 16383: every node looked internal,
the descent walked into zeroed out-of-tree AABBs, and the pick reported a
permanent miss. This broke every rayQuery=true compute shader (builder
picking, splash queries) on the WebGPU backend.
Pass the per-build padded leaf count to the shim the same way the
megakernel _rtwTraverseTlas reads wfParams.tlasNPadded: a small uniform
(RqTlasMeta.nPadded) at @group(1) @binding(10), written each wgpuBuildTLAS
from wfNextPow2(instanceCount), and bound by both rayQuery dispatch paths.
_rqTraverseTlas now computes leavesStart = nPadded - 1 dynamically.

Indexing a `layout(descriptor_heap)` array with a runtime (non-constant)
index inside a ray-tracing hit shader device-losts on NVIDIA 610.43.02,
for both SSBO and sampled-image descriptors. A constant/spec-constant
index is fine, and the same dynamic pattern works in fragment shaders, so
it's an RT-stage-specific driver fault — the same family as #7/#15
(descriptor-heap AS reads) and #21/#22 (RT recursion + compute TLAS push).
Unlike the AS-read fault, this cannot be worked around transparently: a
sampled image has no device-address escape hatch the way an acceleration
structure does (OpConvertUToAccelerationStructureKHR), and a buffer-only
buffer_reference rewrite would need a whole address-table architecture
while still leaving the texture half broken. So the resolution is the
documented-limitation path (the precedent set by #7).
Records the fault and its isolation in README's Native RT status and in
the Sponza example README (the textured-closest-hit example, which already
reads its albedo through a spec-constant slot for exactly this reason).
Documents the recommended consumer pattern: bind one resource and index
*within* it dynamically (single geometry SSBO / buffer_reference at a
spec-constant slot; one texture2DArray indexed by layer) rather than
selecting a descriptor dynamically — what the WebGPU path already does.

Two gaps in the Vulkan RT path that fault the device on the NVIDIA
proprietary driver with a non-trivial pipeline (simple VulkanTriangle
never hit them):
1. maxPipelineRayRecursionDepth was hardcoded to 1, so any closest-hit
shader that traces a secondary ray (shadow ray — a very common
pattern) recursed past the pipeline limit (UB → device fault).
PipelineRTVulkan::Init now takes a maxRecursionDepth parameter
(default 1, clamped to the device's maxRayRecursionDepth).
2. The NVIDIA descriptor-heap AS-read workaround rewrites every shader
that reads an accelerationStructureEXT from the heap — including
compute shaders — to read the TLAS device address from a push
constant, but only RTPass pushed that address. A compute shader that
ray-queries the TLAS (rayQueryEXT) therefore ran against an unwritten
push slot → garbage AS handle → VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST.
WorkaroundNvidiaAS::Patch now returns a per-shader PatchResult
{patched, tlasPushOffset} instead of writing the clobber-prone global
Device::workaroundTlasPushOffset (removed). VulkanShader stores it;
ShaderBindingTableVulkan/PipelineRTVulkan carry it for RTPass, and
ComputeShader tracks its own offset and pushes the caller-supplied
TLAS address in Dispatch (new defaulted tlasAddress parameter),
mirroring RTPass::Record.
The PushConstantRewrite regression test now asserts Patch's returned
patched/offset and adds two ray-querying compute-shader cases, proving
the rewrite is stage-agnostic and the per-shader offset is correct.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds tests/PushConstantRewrite, a host test that compiles representative
ray-generation shaders with glslang, runs the real WorkaroundNvidiaAS::Patch
over them, and asserts with spirv-val (the same invocation vkCreateShaderModule
uses) that the result is valid and contains exactly one push-constant block —
covering both the merge path (shaders that already declare a push constant,
including mat4/vec3/uint, a lone uint, and an array layout) and the synthesize
path, plus a no-op case (push constant but no AS read). It also checks the
published TLAS push offset for each layout.
The workaround namespace is exported so the test can drive Patch directly; both
go away with the rest of the workaround. project.cpp wires the test as an
executable that recompiles the module and requires glslang + spirv-val.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The NVIDIA descriptor-heap AS-read workaround (#15) rewrote heap
acceleration-structure reads into a load of the TLAS device address from
a push-constant block. It always *synthesized a new* push-constant block,
so any ray-tracing shader that already declared one ended up with two —
which SPIR-V forbids ("at most one push constant block statically used per
entry point"), and vkCreateShaderModule's spirv-val check rejected:
Entry point id '4' uses more than one PushConstant interface.
WorkaroundNvidiaAS::Patch now detects an existing PushConstant variable and,
when present, appends a single ulong member (the TLAS address) to that
block instead of adding a second one, reading the address through the
shader's own push-constant variable. The append offset is the end of the
user's block, computed from the members' explicit Offset/ArrayStride/
MatrixStride decorations (correct under both scalar and std140 layout) and
rounded up to 8. Shaders with no push constant of their own keep getting a
freshly synthesized single-member block at offset 0, exactly as before.
That offset is published via Device::workaroundTlasPushOffset and RTPass
feeds it to vkCmdPushDataEXT so the address lands where the rewritten load
reads it (0 for the synthesized case, preserving prior behaviour).
Verified on the affected driver (NVIDIA 610.43.02, RTX 4090): VulkanTriangle
ray-traces correctly and validation-clean both with and without a
user-declared raygen push constant.

The GPU-AV enable list was removed to dodge a crash in SDK 1.4.341,
whose GPU-AV null-deref'd on descriptor_heap pipelines
(VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_2_DESCRIPTOR_HEAP_BIT_EXT, layout = VK_NULL_HANDLE)
in PipelineSubState::GetPipelineLayoutUnion:
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-ValidationLayers/issues/12103
That was fixed in the next SDK release. The validation layer is now
1.4.350 (> 1.4.341), so restore VK_VALIDATION_FEATURE_ENABLE_GPU_ASSISTED_EXT
in the VkValidationFeaturesEXT enable list.
Verified by running the HelloUI example (which draws through the
descriptor_heap compute pipelines) with the layer active: it renders the
full UI for the entire run with GPU-AV reporting "Both GPU Assisted
Validation and Normal Core Check Validation are enabled" and no
descriptor-heap null-deref or VUID errors.

Reading an acceleration structure through VK_EXT_descriptor_heap aborts
with VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST on NVIDIA 610.43.02 — a brand-new-extension
driver fault isolated in #7 (engine setup is correct and validation-clean;
images/buffers through the same heap work, and both traceRayEXT and inline
rayQuery fault identically on the AS read).
An acceleration structure can equally be reached by its device address via
OpConvertUToAccelerationStructureKHR, which reads no descriptor and so never
touches the faulting heap path. glslang has no GLSL spelling for that
conversion, so VulkanShader rewrites the compiled SPIR-V at module-load
time: every `OpLoad %accelStruct <heap-ptr>` becomes a load of the TLAS
device address from a synthesized push-constant block followed by the
convert. RTPass pushes the active frame's TLAS address into that push
constant. User GLSL and example code are unchanged; acceleration structures
still bind into the heap normally.
The workaround is gated on Device::workaroundDescriptorHeapAS (true only on
the NVIDIA proprietary driver) and confined to one fenced block in
Crafter.Graphics-ShaderVulkan.cppm plus the RTPass push and the shaderInt64
feature toggle — delete those once a fixed NVIDIA driver ships and the heap
AS read becomes the direct path again.
Verified: VulkanTriangle ray-traces correctly on native NVIDIA (RTX 4090),
validation-layer-clean, no device loss. The SPIR-V rewrite was independently
validated with spirv-val on both the VulkanTriangle and Sponza raygen
modules.

The TRACE-stage BLAS descent now threads the payload through, runs the
any-hit shader for non-opaque candidates (DXR/VK opacity resolution:
ray FORCE flags > instance FORCE flags > geometry opaque bit), and
handles AABB leaves via the intersection shader. MeshRecord grows to 64
bytes with geomType + opaque. When any-hit/intersection are present the
TRACE pipeline takes the user bind-group layout so those shaders can
sample @group(3+) resources; otherwise TRACE keeps its zero-user-code
path unchanged. rayQuery stays triangle-only (skips AABB leaves).

PipelineRTWebGPU emits a runIntersection mega-switch and the
RT_HAS_ANYHIT / RT_HAS_INTERSECTION consts (+ the @CRAFTER_RT_TRACE_USER

builds a SAH BVH2 over AABB primitives and uploads them in primitive
order for the intersection shader to fetch.

A 1-D indirect dispatch of ceil(W*H/64) workgroups for the wavefront
TRACE/SHADE stages overflows maxComputeWorkgroupsPerDimension (65535 on
Dawn/Firefox) once the surface exceeds ~4.19M rays (~2560x1640). Per the
WebGPU spec such a dispatch is silently dropped — no validation error —
so at 4K the world is never traced and the accumulator stays black while
non-RT passes survive.
_wfPrep now spreads the workgroups across a 2-D grid (x clamped to 65535,
y = ceil(wg/65535)), and the wfTrace/wfShade entry points rebuild the
linear ray index from (global_invocation_id, num_workgroups). The existing
`i >= _wfCurCount()` guard absorbs the grid overshoot. GENERATE/RESOLVE
already use a 2-D tile dispatch and are unchanged.
Verified in Firefox/WebGPU with RTStress at a 3449x1739 surface (5.99M
rays, 93716 workgroups — well over the 65535 cap): renders the full cube
grid where master shows a black screen.

Investigated the VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST on the native VulkanTriangle (#7).
Verified the engine side is correct and validation-clean: the BLAS/TLAS
build finishes before render (FinishInit waits), the built instance is
well-formed (identity transform, mask=0xFF, correct BLAS ref), and
vkWriteResourceDescriptorsEXT stores the TLAS device address at the
expected heap offset (confirmed by dumping the heap bytes). Khronos
validation 1.4.350 reports zero errors.
The fault is isolated to reading the acceleration structure through
VK_EXT_descriptor_heap:
- images/buffers via the same heap render fine (trace disabled -> the
raygen imageStore path renders a full gradient);
- both traceRayEXT and inline rayQueryEXT (no SBT) fault identically on
the AS read;
- reproduces with the AS descriptor at heap byte 0 / shader index 0 (no
offset/stride ambiguity) and regardless of pAddressRange size.
NVIDIA 610.43.02 is the only descriptor_heap implementation available
(llvmpipe lacks the extension), so there is no second implementation to
cross-check. Conclusion: driver-side fault in NVIDIA's brand-new
VK_EXT_descriptor_heap acceleration-structure path; should be reported to
NVIDIA. The traceRayEXT call is left active so the example stays a
faithful reproducer. Documented in both READMEs.

dom-webgpu.js capped maxStorageBuffersPerShaderStage at 16 even when the
adapter reports far more (64 in our test env). The wavefront SHADE kernel
already binds ~16 storage buffers before any user binding, so any RT
pipeline declaring 2+ user storage buffers at @group(3) overflowed the
limit and failed to build with "Too many bindings of type StorageBuffers".
Request the adapter's reported maxStorageBuffersPerShaderStage /
maxStorageBuffersInPipelineLayout instead of a fixed 16. `clamp` already
mins against the adapter cap, so baseline-only devices still get a valid
request, and the `|| 16` fallback + the `typeof cap === "number"` guard
handle limit names a browser doesn't expose (Firefox returns null for
maxStorageBuffersInPipelineLayout).
Verified in-browser: a 17-storage-buffer compute pipeline fails with the
exact reported error on a device clamped to 16, and builds cleanly on a
device requesting the adapter's 64. RTStress renders correctly.

Two Vulkan validation errors fired on startup of every native (Vulkan)
example, reported in #5:
1. vkCreateDevice enabledLayerCount != 0. Device layers are deprecated
and ignored since Vulkan 1.0; passing them is a spec violation
(VUID-VkDeviceCreateInfo-enabledLayerCount-12384). The device-layer
enumeration/match block in Device::Initialize is removed and
enabledLayerCount is pinned to 0 — layers are enabled at the instance
only.
2. vkQueueSubmit layout transition on a presentable image that "has not
been acquired". StartInit() and RecreateSwapchainAndImages() eagerly
transitioned every swapchain image UNDEFINED -> PRESENT_SRC_KHR before
any vkAcquireNextImageKHR, which the spec forbids (a presentable image
may only be touched after acquire). Those pre-transitions are removed.
Each image's first layout transition now happens lazily in Render(),
after acquire, from UNDEFINED; subsequent frames transition from
PRESENT_SRC_KHR. A per-image `imageInitialised` flag (reset in
CreateSwapchain) selects the correct oldLayout.
Verified under sway (headless, GPU renderer) + VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation:
the original code reproduces both errors on HelloUI; the fixed build emits
zero validation messages across initial render and swapchain recreation.

The LBVH bitonic sort still runs over the full 16384 (sentinels sink to

log2(next_pow2(nReal)) instead of a fixed 14. Add nPadded to LbvhPC; leaf
