Hey.
I believe I may have run into a GLSL compilation bug. I have a piece of code that uses uvec2(abs(floor(coords)))
, but it would appear that abs()
is being ignored.
However, using a “manual” if(coords.x < 0) coords.x = -coords.x;
does work.
Relevant links (n.b.: this is not the final code, so ignore the intended semantics of it!):
- Relevant program sources: http://codepad.org/ujUwkswz http://codepad.org/wCmfiiL4 (`COORDS` range from -32.5 to +31.5 due to scaling)
- Output with `abs()`: http://i.imgur.com/bGbNAGD.png
- Output with `if()`: http://i.imgur.com/lcYrdaL.png
- Comparison between the `abs()` version disassembly and the `if()` ("manual") one: http://vpaste.net/Ibcem
A few notes:
- GL: 3.3.0 NVIDIA 378.92; shader is `#version 330`
- `#pragma optimize (off)` does not change the output.
- Using `icoords = abs(icoords);` is exactly the same as simply omitting that line, and not using `abs()` at all.
- The disassembly seems correct. However (as mentioned in the previous line), during execution, `abs()` is ignored, as if it were a no-op (I suspect the `ABS` flag in the binary output is either ignored or not written in the first place)
