Struct bevy_render::settings::WgpuFeatures

pub struct WgpuFeatures { /* private fields */ }

Features that are not guaranteed to be supported.

These are either part of the webgpu standard, or are extension features supported by wgpu when targeting native.

If you want to use a feature, you need to first verify that the adapter supports the feature. If the adapter does not support the feature, requesting a device with it enabled will panic.

Corresponds to WebGPU GPUFeatureName.

Implementations

impl Features

pub const DEPTH_CLIP_CONTROL: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 0,}

By default, polygon depth is clipped to 0-1 range before/during rasterization. Anything outside of that range is rejected, and respective fragments are not touched.

With this extension, we can disabling clipping. That allows shadow map occluders to be rendered into a tighter depth range.

Supported platforms:

• desktops
• some mobile chips

This is a web and native feature.

pub const DEPTH32FLOAT_STENCIL8: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 2,}

Allows for explicit creation of textures of format TextureFormat::Depth32FloatStencil8

Supported platforms:

• Vulkan (mostly)
• DX12
• Metal

This is a web and native feature.

pub const TEXTURE_COMPRESSION_BC: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 3,}

Enables BCn family of compressed textures. All BCn textures use 4x4 pixel blocks with 8 or 16 bytes per block.

Compressed textures sacrifice some quality in exchange for significantly reduced bandwidth usage.

Support for this feature guarantees availability of [TextureUsages::COPY_SRC | TextureUsages::COPY_DST | TextureUsages::TEXTURE_BINDING] for BCn formats. Features::TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES may enable additional usages.

Supported Platforms:

• desktops

This is a web and native feature.

pub const TEXTURE_COMPRESSION_ETC2: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 4,}

Enables ETC family of compressed textures. All ETC textures use 4x4 pixel blocks. ETC2 RGB and RGBA1 are 8 bytes per block. RTC2 RGBA8 and EAC are 16 bytes per block.

Compressed textures sacrifice some quality in exchange for significantly reduced bandwidth usage.

Support for this feature guarantees availability of [TextureUsages::COPY_SRC | TextureUsages::COPY_DST | TextureUsages::TEXTURE_BINDING] for ETC2 formats. Features::TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES may enable additional usages.

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan on Intel
• Mobile (some)

This is a web and native feature.

pub const TEXTURE_COMPRESSION_ASTC_LDR: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 5,}

Enables ASTC family of compressed textures. ASTC textures use pixel blocks varying from 4x4 to 12x12. Blocks are always 16 bytes.

Compressed textures sacrifice some quality in exchange for significantly reduced bandwidth usage.

Support for this feature guarantees availability of [TextureUsages::COPY_SRC | TextureUsages::COPY_DST | TextureUsages::TEXTURE_BINDING] for ASTC formats. Features::TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES may enable additional usages.

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan on Intel
• Mobile (some)

This is a web and native feature.

pub const INDIRECT_FIRST_INSTANCE: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 6,}

Allows non-zero value for the “first instance” in indirect draw calls.

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan (mostly)
• DX12
• Metal

This is a web and native feature.

pub const TIMESTAMP_QUERY: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 7,}

Enables use of Timestamp Queries. These queries tell the current gpu timestamp when all work before the query is finished. Call [CommandEncoder::write_timestamp], [RenderPassEncoder::write_timestamp], or [ComputePassEncoder::write_timestamp] to write out a timestamp.

They must be resolved using [CommandEncoder::resolve_query_sets] into a buffer, then the result must be multiplied by the timestamp period [Queue::get_timestamp_period] to get the timestamp in nanoseconds. Multiple timestamps can then be diffed to get the time for operations between them to finish.

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan
• DX12

This is a web and native feature.

pub const PIPELINE_STATISTICS_QUERY: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 8,}

Enables use of Pipeline Statistics Queries. These queries tell the count of various operations performed between the start and stop call. Call [RenderPassEncoder::begin_pipeline_statistics_query] to start a query, then call [RenderPassEncoder::end_pipeline_statistics_query] to stop one.

They must be resolved using [CommandEncoder::resolve_query_sets] into a buffer. The rules on how these resolve into buffers are detailed in the documentation for [PipelineStatisticsTypes].

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan
• DX12

This is a web and native feature.

pub const SHADER_FLOAT16: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 9,}

Allows shaders to acquire the FP16 ability

Note: this is not supported in naga yet，only through spir-v passthrough right now.

Supported Platforms:

• Vulkan
• Metal

This is a web and native feature.

pub const MAPPABLE_PRIMARY_BUFFERS: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 16,}

Webgpu only allows the MAP_READ and MAP_WRITE buffer usage to be matched with COPY_DST and COPY_SRC respectively. This removes this requirement.

This is only beneficial on systems that share memory between CPU and GPU. If enabled on a system that doesn’t, this can severely hinder performance. Only use if you understand the consequences.

Supported platforms:

• Vulkan
• DX12
• Metal

This is a native only feature.

pub const TEXTURE_BINDING_ARRAY: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 17,}

This extension does not enable additional formats.

This is a native-only feature.

pub const SHADER_FLOAT64: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 30,}

Enables 64-bit floating point types in SPIR-V shaders.

pub const TEXTURE_COMPRESSION_ASTC_HDR: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 40,}

Enables ASTC HDR family of compressed textures.

Compressed textures sacrifice some quality in exchange for significantly reduced bandwidth usage.

Support for this feature guarantees availability of [TextureUsages::COPY_SRC | TextureUsages::COPY_DST | TextureUsages::TEXTURE_BINDING] for BCn formats. Features::TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES may enable additional usages.

Supported Platforms:

• Metal
• Vulkan
• OpenGL

This is a native-only feature.

pub const WRITE_TIMESTAMP_INSIDE_PASSES: Features = Self{ bits: 1 << 41,}

pub const fn empty() -> Features

Returns an empty set of flags.

pub const fn all() -> Features

Returns the set containing all flags.

pub const fn bits(&self) -> u64

Returns the raw value of the flags currently stored.

pub const fn from_bits(bits: u64) -> Option<Features>

Convert from underlying bit representation, unless that representation contains bits that do not correspond to a flag.

pub const fn from_bits_truncate(bits: u64) -> Features

Convert from underlying bit representation, dropping any bits that do not correspond to flags.

pub const unsafe fn from_bits_unchecked(bits: u64) -> Features

Convert from underlying bit representation, preserving all bits (even those not corresponding to a defined flag).

Safety

The caller of the bitflags! macro can chose to allow or disallow extra bits for their bitflags type.

The caller of from_bits_unchecked() has to ensure that all bits correspond to a defined flag or that extra bits are valid for this bitflags type.

pub const fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Returns true if no flags are currently stored.

pub const fn is_all(&self) -> bool

Returns true if all flags are currently set.

pub const fn intersects(&self, other: Features) -> bool

Returns true if there are flags common to both self and other.

pub const fn contains(&self, other: Features) -> bool

Returns true if all of the flags in other are contained within self.

pub fn insert(&mut self, other: Features)

Inserts the specified flags in-place.

pub fn remove(&mut self, other: Features)

Removes the specified flags in-place.

pub fn toggle(&mut self, other: Features)

Toggles the specified flags in-place.

pub fn set(&mut self, other: Features, value: bool)

Inserts or removes the specified flags depending on the passed value.

pub const fn intersection(self, other: Features) -> Features

Returns the intersection between the flags in self and other.

Specifically, the returned set contains only the flags which are present in both self and other.

This is equivalent to using the & operator (e.g. ops::BitAnd), as in flags & other.

pub const fn union(self, other: Features) -> Features

Returns the union of between the flags in self and other.

Specifically, the returned set contains all flags which are present in either self or other, including any which are present in both (see Self::symmetric_difference if that is undesirable).

This is equivalent to using the | operator (e.g. ops::BitOr), as in flags | other.

pub const fn difference(self, other: Features) -> Features

Returns the difference between the flags in self and other.

Specifically, the returned set contains all flags present in self, except for the ones present in other.

It is also conceptually equivalent to the “bit-clear” operation: flags & !other (and this syntax is also supported).

This is equivalent to using the - operator (e.g. ops::Sub), as in flags - other.

pub const fn symmetric_difference(self, other: Features) -> Features

Returns the symmetric difference between the flags in self and other.

Specifically, the returned set contains the flags present which are present in self or other, but that are not present in both. Equivalently, it contains the flags present in exactly one of the sets self and other.

This is equivalent to using the ^ operator (e.g. ops::BitXor), as in flags ^ other.

pub const fn complement(self) -> Features

Returns the complement of this set of flags.

Specifically, the returned set contains all the flags which are not set in self, but which are allowed for this type.

Alternatively, it can be thought of as the set difference between Self::all() and self (e.g. Self::all() - self)

This is equivalent to using the ! operator (e.g. ops::Not), as in !flags.

impl Features

pub const fn all_webgpu_mask() -> Features
