Vulkan: Workaround vertex attributes vs stride issue on AMD Under robustBufferAccess, Vulkan states that: Vertex input attributes are considered out of bounds if the offset of the attribute in the bound vertex buffer range plus the size of the attribute is greater than either: - vertexBufferRangeSize, if bindingStride == 0; or - (vertexBufferRangeSize - (vertexBufferRangeSize % bindingStride)) The latter implies that if the buffer size is not a multiple of the vertex attribute stride, what lies beyond the last multiple of stride is considered out of bounds. It also says: Out-of-bounds buffer loads will return any of the following values: - Values from anywhere within the memory range(s) bound to the buffer (possibly including bytes of memory past the end of the buffer, up to the end of the bound range). - Zero values, or (0,0,0,x) vectors for vector reads where x is a valid value represented in the type of the vector components and may be any of ... The first bullet point indicates that the driver is allowed to load the attribute values from the buffer if its range still lies within the buffer size. Take the following example: - Buffer size = 12 - Attribute stride = 8 - Attribute offset = 0 - Attribute size = 4 Basically the buffer is thus laid out as follows: attr stride _________/\_________ / \ +----------+----------+----------+ | vertex 0 | padding | vertex 1 | +----------+----------+----------+ \___ ____/ V attr size In the above example, the attribute for vertex 1 is considered out of bounds, but the driver is allowed to either read it correctly, or return (0, 0, 0, 1) for it. Most drivers implement the former, while AMD implements the latter. This change introduces a workaround for AMD where GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIB_STRIDE is limited to 2048 (the common value for it according to gpuinfo.org) and conservatively rounds up every buffer allocation to that size. While technically, this workaround should be applied on any device with the robustBufferAccess feature enabled, it is currently limited to AMD to avoid the inefficiency. A possible future revision of Vulkan may relax the above restrictions.

The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0 and 3.0 to desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES to Vulkan is underway, and future plans include compute shader support (ES 3.1) and MacOS support.

ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.
ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.
Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
