475: Return custom `AdapterInfo` that contains backend. r=kvark a=daxpedda When requesting an `Adapter` in combination with `BackendBit::all()`, there was no way to determine what backend was ultimately chosen. This change implements a custom `AdapterInfo` that contains a field with `Backend`, it does otherwise not differ from `gfx_hal::adapter::AdapterInfo`. The only question I have is about `serde` implementation, currently I can't derive de/serialization from it because of `DeviceType`. This could be fixed by activating the `serde` feature in `gfx-hal`, which isn't possible (as far as i know) without renaming our current `serde` feature. Co-authored-by: daxpedda <daxpedda@gmail.com>
This is an active GitHub mirror of the WebGPU implementation in Rust, which now lives in "gfx/wgpu" of Mozilla-central. Issues and pull requests are accepted, but some bidirectional synchronization may be involved.
WebGPU
This is an experimental WebGPU implementation, exposing both Rust and C interfaces as a native static library. It's written in Rust and is based on gfx-hal and a few Rendy bits. See the upstream WebGPU specification (work in progress).
The implementation consists of the following parts:
wgpu-core- internal Rust API for WebGPU implementations to usewgpu-native- the native implementation of WebGPU as a C API librarywgpu-remote- remoting layer to work with WebGPU across the process boundary, as a C API library used by Geckoffi- the C headers generated by cbindgen for the native headers
