10Requirements
11------------
12
13### Common
14
15 * Git (for checking out sources)
16 * Python 2.7.x (all recent versions in 2.x should work, 3.x is not supported)
17 * CMake 2.8 or newer
18
19### Win32
20
21 * Visual Studio 2013 or newer (glslang uses several C++11 features)
22
23### Linux
24
25 * Standard toolchain (make, gcc/clang)
26
27### Android
28
29 * Android NDK r11
30 * Android SDK with: SDK Tools, SDK Platform-tools, SDK Build-tools, and API 22
31 * Java Development Kit (JDK)
32 * Apache Ant
33 * Windows: either NMake or JOM in PATH

39Building CTS
40------------
41
42To build dEQP, you need first to download sources for zlib, libpng, glslang,
43and spirv-tools.
44
45To download sources, run:
46
47	python external/fetch_sources.py
48
49You may need to re-run `fetch_sources.py` to update to the latest glslang and
50spirv-tools revisions occasionally.
51
52With CMake out-of-source builds are always recommended. Create a build directory
53of your choosing, and in that directory generate Makefiles or IDE project
54using cmake.
55
56
57### Windows x86-32
58
59	cmake <path to vulkancts> -G"Visual Studio 12"
60	start dEQP-Core-default.sln
61
62### Windows x86-64
63
64	cmake <path to vulkancts> -G"Visual Studio 12 Win64"
65	start dEQP-Core-default.sln
66
67### Linux 32-bit Debug
68
69	cmake <path to vulkancts> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-m32 -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-m32
70	make -j
71
72Release build can be done by using -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
73
74### Linux 64-bit Debug
75
76	cmake <path to vulkancts> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS=-m64 -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-m64
77	make -j
78
79### Android
80
81Following command will build CTS into android/package/bin/dEQP-debug.apk.
82
83	python android/scripts/build.py
84
85The package can be installed by either running:
86
87	python android/scripts/install.py
88
89By default the CTS package will contain libdeqp.so built for armeabi-v7a, arm64-v8a,
90and x86 ABIs, but that can be changed in android/scripts/common.py script.
91
92To pick which ABI to use at install time, following commands must be used
93instead:
94
95	adb install --abi <ABI name> android/package/bin/dEQP-debug.apk /data/local/tmp/dEQP-debug.apk
96
97
98Building Mustpass
99-----------------
100
101Current mustpass is checked into repository and can be found at:
102
103	external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.2/vk-default.txt
104
105Vulkan CTS mustpass can be re-generated by running:
106
107	python <vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/build_mustpass.py
108
109
110Pre-compiling SPIR-V binaries
111-----------------------------
112
113For distribution, and platforms that don't support GLSL to SPIR-V compilation,
114SPIR-V binaries can be pre-built with following command:
115
116	python external/vulkancts/scripts/build_spirv_binaries.py
117
118Binaries will be written to `external/vulkancts/data/vulkan/prebuilt/`.
119
120Test modules (or in case of Android, the APK) must be re-built after building
121SPIR-V programs in order for the binaries to be available.
122
123
124Running CTS
125-----------
126
127Following command line options MUST be used when running CTS:
128
129	--deqp-caselist-file=<vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.2/vk-default.txt
130	--deqp-log-images=disable
131	--deqp-log-shader-sources=disable
132
133In addition on multi-device systems the device for which conformance is claimed
134can be selected with:
135
136	--deqp-vk-device-id=<value>
137
138To speed up the conformance run on some platforms the following command line
139option may be used to disable frequent fflush() calls to the output logs:
140
141	--deqp-log-flush=disable
142
143By default, the test log will be written into the path "TestResults.qpa". If the
144platform requires a different path, it can be specified with:
145
146	--deqp-log-filename=<path>
147
148No other command line options are allowed.
149
150### Win32
151
152	cd <builddir>/external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan
153	Debug/deqp-vk.exe --deqp-caselist-file=...
154
155Test log will be written into TestResults.qpa
156
157### Linux
158
159	cd <builddir>/external/vulkancts/modules/vulkan
160	./deqp-vk --deqp-vk-caselist-file=...
161
162### Android
163
164	adb push <vulkancts>/external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.2/vk-default.txt /sdcard/vk-default.txt
165	adb shell
166
167In device shell:
168
169	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"
170
171Test progress will be written to device log and can be displayed with:
172
173	adb logcat -s dEQP
174
175Test log will be written into `/sdcard/TestResults.qpa`.
176
177
178Conformance Submission Package Requirements
179-------------------------------------------
180
181The conformance submission package must contain the following:
182
1831. Full test logs (`TestResults.qpa`) from CTS runs against all driver builds
1842. Result of `git status` and `git log` from CTS source directory
1853. Any patches used on top of release tag
1864. Conformance statement
187
188Test logs (1) should be named `<submission pkg dir>/TestResults-<driver build type>.qpa`,
189for example `TestResults-armeabi-v7a.qpa`. On platforms where multiple different driver
190builds (for example 64-bit and 32-bit) are present, CTS logs must be provided
191for each driver build as part of the submission package.
192
193The CTS build must always be done from clean git repository that doesn't have any
194uncommitted changes. Thus it is necessary to run and capture output of `git
195status` and `git log` (2) in the source directory:
196
197	git status > <submission pkg dir>/git-status.txt
198	git log --first-parent <release tag>^..HEAD > <submission pkg dir>/git-log.txt
199
200Any changes made to CTS must be committed to the local repository, and provided
201as part of the submission package (3). This can be done by running:
202
203	git format-patch -o <submission pkg dir> <release tag>..HEAD
204
205In general, bugfixes and changes to platform-specific code (mostly under
206`framework/platform`) are allowed. The commit message for each change must
207include a clear description of the change and why it is necessary. Non-porting
208related changes must be accompanied by a waiver (see below).
209
210NOTE: When cherry-picking patches on top of release tag, please use `git cherry-pick -x`
211to include original commit hash in the commit message.
212
213Conformance statement (4) must be included in a file called `STATEMENT-<adopter>`
214and must contain following:
215
216	CONFORM_VERSION:         <git tag of CTS release>
217	PRODUCT:                 <string-value>
218	CPU:                     <string-value>
219	OS:                      <string-value>
220
221Note that product/cpu/os information is also captured in `dEQP-VK.info.*` tests
222if `vk::Platform::describePlatform()` is implemented.
223
224If the submission package covers multiple products, you can list them by appending
225additional `PRODUCT:` lines to the conformance statement. For example:
226
227	CONFORM_VERSION:         vulkan-cts-1.0.2.0
228	PRODUCT:                 Product A
229	PRODUCT:                 Product B
230	...
231
232The actual submission package consists of the above set of files which must
233be bundled into a gzipped tar file named `VK10_<adopter><_info>.tgz`. `<adopter>`
234is the name of the Adopting member company, or some recognizable abbreviation.
235The `<_info>` field is optional. It may be used to uniquely identify a submission
236by OS, platform, date, or other criteria when making multiple submissions.
237
238One way to create a suiteable gzipped tar file is to execute the command:
239
240	tar -cvzf <filename.tgz> -C <submission pkg dir> .
241
242where `<submission pkg dir>` is the directory containing the files from (1)-(4)
243from above. A submission package must contain all of the files listed above,
244and only those files.
245
246As an example submission package could contain:
247
248	STATEMENT-Khronos
249	git-log.txt
250	git-status.txt
251	0001-Remove-Waived-Filtering-Tests.patch
252	0002-Fix-Pipeline-Parameters.patch
253	TestResults-armeabi-v7a.qpa
254	TestResults-arm64-v8a.qpa
255
256
257Waivers
258-------
259
260The process for requesting a waiver is to report the issue by filing a bug
261report in the Gitlab VulkanCTS project (TODO Github?). When creating the
262submission package, include references to the waiver in the commit message of
263the relevant change. Including as much information as possible in your bug
264report (including a unified diff or a merge request of suggested file changes)
265will ensure the issue can be progressed as rapidly as possible. Issues must
266be labeled "Waiver" (TODO!) and identify the version of the CTS and affected
267tests.
268
269Conformance Criteria
270--------------------
271
272Conformance run is considered passing if all tests finish with allowed result
273codes. Test results are contained in the TestResults.qpa log. Each
274test case section contains XML tag Result, for example:
275
276	<Result StatusCode="Pass">Not validated</Result>
277
278The result code is the value of the StatusCode attribute. Following status
279codes are allowed:
280
281	Pass
282	NotSupported
283	QualityWarning
284	CompatibilityWarning
285
286Submission package can be verified using `external/vulkancts/scripts/verify_submission.py`
287script. The script takes two arguments: path to extracted submission package
288and path to current mustpass list. For example:
289
290	python external/vulkancts/scripts/verify_submission.py VK_10_Khronos_1/ external/vulkancts/mustpass/1.0.2/vk-default.txt
291
292
293Vulkan platform port
294--------------------
295
296Vulkan support from Platform implementation requires providing
297`getVulkanPlatform()` method in `tcu::Platform` class implementation.
298
299See `framework/common/tcuPlatform.hpp` and examples in
300`framework/platform/win32/tcuWin32Platform.cpp` and
301`framework/platform/android/tcuAndroidPlatform.cpp`.
302
303If any WSI extensions are supported, platform port must also implement
304methods for creating native display (`vk::Platform::createWsiDisplay`)
305and window handles (`vk::wsi::Display::createWindow`). Otherwise tests
306under `dEQP-VK.wsi` will fail.
307
308
309Null (dummy) driver
310-------------------
311
312For testing and development purposes it might be useful to be able to run
313tests on dummy Vulkan implementation. One such implementation is provided in
314vkNullDriver.cpp. To use that, implement `vk::Platform::createLibrary()` with
315`vk::createNullDriver()`.
316
317
318Validation Layers
319-----------------
320
321Vulkan CTS framework includes first-party support for validation layers, that
322can be turned on with `--deqp-validation=enable` command line option.
323
324When validation is turned on, default instance and device will be created with
325validation layers enabled and debug callback is registered to record any
326messages. Debug messages collected during test execution will be included at
327the end of the test case log.
328
329If any validation errors are found, test result will be set to `InternalError`.
330
331By default `VK_DEBUG_REPORT_INFORMATION_BIT_EXT` and `_DEBUG_BIT_EXT` messages
332are excluded from the log, but that can be customized by modifying
333`vkt::TestCaseExecutor::deinit()` in `vktTestPackage.cpp`.
334
335
336Cherry GUI
337----------
338
339Vulkan test module can be used with Cherry (GUI for test execution and
340analysis). Cherry is available at
341https://android.googlesource.com/platform/external/cherry. Please follow
342instructions in README to get started.
343
344Before first launch, and every time test hierarchy has been modified, test
345case list must be refreshed by running:
346
347	python scripts/build_caselists.py path/to/cherry/data
348
349Cherry must be restarted for the case list update to take effect.
