35Building CTS
36------------
37
38To build dEQP, you need first to download sources for zlib, libpng, glslang,
39and spirv-tools.
40
41To download sources, run:
42
43	python external/fetch_sources.py
44
45You may need to re-run `fetch_sources.py` to update to the latest glslang and
46spirv-tools revisions occasionally.
47
48NOTE: glslang integration is not yet available on Android due to a toolchain
49bug, so pre-compiled SPIR-V binaries must be used. See instructions below.
50
51With CMake out-of-source builds are always recommended. Create a build directory
52of your choosing, and in that directory generate Makefiles or IDE project
53using cmake.
54
55
56### Windows x86-32
57
58	cmake <path to vulkancts> -G"Visual Studio 12"
59	start dEQP-Core-default.sln
60
61### Windows x86-64
62
63	cmake <path to vulkancts> -G"Visual Studio 12 Win64"
64	start dEQP-Core-default.sln
65
66### Linux 32-bit Debug
67
68	cmake <path to vulkancts> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-m32 -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-m32
69	make -j
70
71Release build can be done by using -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
72
73### Linux 64-bit Debug
74
75	cmake <path to vulkancts> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-m64 -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-m64
76	make -j
77
78### Android
79
80Following command will build CTS into android/package/bin/dEQP-debug.apk.
81
82	python android/scripts/build.py
83
84The package can be installed by either running:
85
86	python android/scripts/install.py
87
88By default the CTS package will contain libdeqp.so built for armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a,
89and x86 ABIs, but that can be changed in android/scripts/common.py script.
90
91To pick which ABI to use at install time, following commands must be used
92instead:
93
94	adb install --abi <ABI name> android/package/bin/dEQP-debug.apk /data/local/tmp/dEQP-debug.apk
95
96
97Building Mustpass
98-----------------
99
100Current mustpass is checked into repository and can be found at:
101
102	external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.0/vk-default.txt
103
104Vulkan CTS mustpass can be re-generated by running:
105
106	python <vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/build_mustpass.py
107
108
109Pre-compiling SPIR-V binaries
110-----------------------------
111
112For distribution, and platforms that don't support GLSL to SPIR-V compilation,
113SPIR-V binaries must be pre-built with following command:
114
115	python external/vulkancts/build_spirv_binaries.py
116
117Binaries will be written to `external/vulkancts/data/vulkan/prebuilt/`.
118
119Test modules (or in case of Android, the APK) must be re-built after building
120SPIR-V programs in order for the binaries to be available.
121
122
123Running CTS
124-----------
125
126Following command line options MUST be used when running CTS:
127
128	--deqp-caselist-file=<vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.0/vk-default.txt
129	--deqp-log-images=disable
130	--deqp-log-shader-sources=disable
131
132In addition on multi-device systems the device for which conformance is claimed
133can be selected with:
134
135	--deqp-vk-device-id=<value>
136
137To speed up the conformance run on some platforms the following command line
138option may be used to disable frequent fflush() calls to the output logs:
139
140	--deqp-log-flush=disable
141
142No other command line options are allowed.
143
144### Win32
145
146	cd <builddir>/external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan
147	Debug/deqp-vk.exe --deqp-caselist-file=...
148
149Test log will be written into TestResults.qpa
150
151### Linux
152
153	cd <builddir>/external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan
154	./deqp-vk --deqp-vk-caselist-file=...
155
156### Android
157
158	adb push <vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.0/vk-default.txt /sdcard/vk-default.txt
159	adb shell
160
161In device shell:
162
163	am start -n com.drawelements.deqp/android.app.NativeActivity -e cmdLine "deqp --deqp-caselist-file=/sdcard/vk-default.txt --deqp-log-images=disable --deqp-log-shader-sources=disable --deqp-log-filename=/sdcard/TestResults.qpa"
164
165Test progress will be written to device log and can be displayed with:
166
167	adb logcat -s dEQP
168
169Test log will be written into `/sdcard/TestResults.qpa`.
170
171
172Conformance Submission Package Requirements
173-------------------------------------------
174
175The conformance submission package must contain the following:
176
1771. Full test logs (`TestResults.qpa`) from CTS runs against all driver builds
1782. Result of `git status` and `git log` from CTS source directory
1793. Any patches used on top of release tag
1804. Conformance statement
181
182Test logs (1) should be named `<submission pkg dir>/TestResults-<driver build type>.qpa`,
183for example `TestResults-armeabi-v7a.qpa`. On platforms where multiple different driver
184builds (for example 64-bit and 32-bit) are present, CTS logs must be provided
185for each driver build as part of the submission package.
186
187The CTS build must always be done from clean git repository that doesn't have any
188uncommitted changes. Thus it is necessary to run and capture output of `git
189status` and `git log` (2) in the source directory:
190
191	git status > <submission pkg dir>/git-status.txt
192	git log <release tag>..HEAD > <submission pkg dir>/git-log.txt
193
194Any changes made to CTS must be committed to the local repository, and provided
195as part of the submission package (3). This can be done by running:
196
197	git format-patch -o <submission pkg dir> <release tag>..HEAD
198
199In general, bugfixes and changes to platform-specific code (mostly under
200`framework/platform`) are allowed. The commit message for each change must
201include a clear description of the change and why it is necessary. Non-porting
202related changes must be accompanied by a waiver (see below).
203
204NOTE: When cherry-picking patches on top of release tag, please use `git cherry-pick -x`
205to include original commit hash in the commit message.
206
207Conformance statement (4) must be included in a file called `STATEMENT-<adopter>`
208and must contain following:
209
210	CONFORM_VERSION:         <git tag of CTS release>
211	PRODUCT:                 <string-value>
212	CPU:                     <string-value>
213	OS:                      <string-value>
214
215Note that product/cpu/os information is also captured in `dEQP-VK.info.*` tests
216if `vk::Platform::describePlatform()` is implemented.
217
218If the submission package covers multiple products, you can list them by appending
219additional `PRODUCT:` lines to the conformance statement. For example:
220
221	CONFORM_VERSION:         vulkan-cts-1.0.0.2
222	PRODUCT:                 Product A
223	PRODUCT:                 Product B
224	...
225
226The actual submission package consists of the above set of files which must
227be bundled into a gzipped tar file named `VK10_<adopter><_info>.tgz`. `<adopter>`
228is the name of the Adopting member company, or some recognizable abbreviation.
229The `<_info>` field is optional. It may be used to uniquely identify a submission
230by OS, platform, date, or other criteria when making multiple submissions.
231
232One way to create a suiteable gzipped tar file is to execute the command:
233
234	tar -cvzf <filename.tgz> -C <submission pkg dir> .
235
236where `<submission pkg dir>` is the directory containing the files from (1)-(4)
237from above. A submission package must contain all of the files listed above,
238and only those files.
239
240As an example submission package could contain:
241
242	STATEMENT-Khronos
243	git-log.txt
244	git-status.txt
245	0001-Remove-Waived-Filtering-Tests.patch
246	0002-Fix-Pipeline-Parameters.patch
247	TestResults-armeabi-v7a.qpa
248	TestResults-arm64-v8a.qpa
249
250
251Waivers
252-------
253
254The process for requesting a waiver is to report the issue by filing a bug
255report in the Gitlab VulkanCTS project (TODO Github?). When creating the
256submission package, include references to the waiver in the commit message of
257the relevant change. Including as much information as possible in your bug
258report (including a unified diff or a merge request of suggested file changes)
259will ensure the issue can be progressed as rapidly as possible. Issues must
260be labeled "Waiver" (TODO!) and identify the version of the CTS and affected
261tests.
262
263Conformance Criteria
264--------------------
265
266Conformance run is considered passing if all tests finish with allowed result
267codes. Test results are contained in the TestResults.qpa log. Each
268test case section contains XML tag Result, for example:
269
270	<Result StatusCode="Pass">Not validated</Result>
271
272The result code is the value of the StatusCode attribute. Following status
273codes are allowed:
274
275	Pass
276	NotSupported
277	QualityWarning
278	CompatibilityWarning
279
280Submission package can be verified using `external/vulkancts/verify_submission.py`
281script. The script takes two arguments: path to extracted submission package
282and path to current mustpass list. For example:
283
284	python external/vulkancts/verify_submission.py VK_10_Khronos_1/ external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.0/vk-default.txt
285
286
287Vulkan platform port
288--------------------
289
290Vulkan support from Platform implementation requires providing
291`getVulkanPlatform()` method in `tcu::Platform` class implementation.
292
293See `framework/common/tcuPlatform.hpp` and examples in
294`framework/platform/win32/tcuWin32Platform.cpp` and
295`framework/platform/android/tcuAndroidPlatform.cpp`.
296
297
298Null (dummy) driver
299-------------------
300
301For testing and development purposes it might be useful to be able to run
302tests on dummy Vulkan implementation. One such implementation is provided in
303vkNullDriver.cpp. To use that, implement `vk::Platform::createLibrary()` with
304`vk::createNullDriver()`.
305
306
307Validation Layers
308-----------------
309
310Vulkan CTS framework includes first-party support for validation layers, that
311can be turned on with `--deqp-validation=enable` command line option.
312
313When validation is turned on, default instance and device will be created with
314validation layers enabled and debug callback is registered to record any
315messages. Debug messages collected during test execution will be included at
316the end of the test case log.
317
318If any validation errors are found, test result will be set to `InternalError`.
319
320By default `VK_DEBUG_REPORT_INFORMATION_BIT_EXT` and `_DEBUG_BIT_EXT` messages
321are excluded from the log, but that can be customized by modifying
322`vkt::TestCaseExecutor::deinit()` in `vktTestPackage.cpp`.
323
324
325Cherry GUI
326----------
327
328Vulkan test module can be used with Cherry (GUI for test execution and
329analysis). Cherry is available at
330https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/cherry. Please follow
331instructions in README to get started.
332
333To enable support for Vulkan tests, dEQP-VK module must be added to list of
334test packages.
335
336In `cherry/testrunner.go`, add following line to `testPackageDescriptors` list
337(line 645 in `NewTestRunner` function):
338
339	{"dEQP-VK", "deqp-vk", "../external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan", dataDir + "dEQP-VK-cases.xml"},
340
341Before first launch, and every time test hierarchy has been modified, test
342case list must be refreshed by running:
343
344	python scripts/build_caselists.py path/to/cherry/data
345
346Cherry must be restarted for the case list update to take effect.
