Module util

Utility structures and functions that are built on top of the main wgpu API.

Nothing in this module is a part of the WebGPU API specification; they are unique to the wgpu library.

Modules

• belt 🔒 std
• device 🔒
• encoder 🔒
• init 🔒
• mutex 🔒
  Provides a Mutex for internal use based on what features are available.
• texture_blitter 🔒 wgsl

Structs

• BufferInitDescriptor
  Describes a Buffer when allocating.
• DispatchIndirectArgs
  Argument buffer layout for dispatch_indirect commands.
• DownloadBuffer
  CPU accessible buffer used to download data back from the GPU.
• DrawIndexedIndirectArgs
  Argument buffer layout for draw_indexed_indirect commands.
• DrawIndirectArgs
  Argument buffer layout for draw_indirect commands.
• StagingBeltstd
  Efficiently performs many buffer writes by sharing and reusing temporary buffers.
• TextureBlitterwgsl
  Texture Blitting (Copying) Utility
• TextureBlitterBuilderwgsl
  A builder for the TextureBlitter utility. If you want the default TextureBlitter use TextureBlitter::new instead.

Enums

• TextureDataOrder
  Order in which texture data is laid out in memory.

Traits

• DeviceExt
  Utility methods not meant to be in the main API.
• RenderEncoder
  Methods shared by RenderPass and RenderBundleEncoder.
• TextureFormatExt
  Adds extra conversion functions to TextureFormat.

Functions

• align_to
  Aligns a value to an alignment.
• initialize_adapter_from_envwgpu_core
  Initialize the adapter obeying the WGPU_ADAPTER_NAME environment variable.
• initialize_adapter_from_env_or_default
  Initialize the adapter obeying the WGPU_ADAPTER_NAME environment variable and if it doesn’t exist fall back on a default adapter.
• is_browser_webgpu_supported
  Determines whether the Backends::BROWSER_WEBGPU backend is supported.
• make_spirv_raw
  Version of make_spirv intended for use with Device::create_shader_module_passthrough. Returns a raw slice instead of ShaderSource.
• new_instance_with_webgpu_detection
  Create an new instance of wgpu, but disabling Backends::BROWSER_WEBGPU if no WebGPU support was detected.
• pipeline_cache_key
  A recommended key for storing PipelineCaches for the adapter associated with the given AdapterInfo This key will define a class of adapters for which the same cache might be valid.
