spq
spq is a family of crates to help you process SPIR-V binary and assembly for Vulkan.
Note: This project prefix
spirq-of several sub-crates has been replaced withspq-in the v1.2.0 release.
| Crate | Purpose |
|---|---|
spq-core  | Common structures and routines for SPIR-V IR analysis. |
spq-spvasm  | SPIR-V assembler and disassembler. |
Commandline (CLI) tools are also provided for general use.
| Crate | Purpose |
|---|---|
spq-dis  | SPIR-V disassembler frontend. Drop-in replacement of spirv-dis. |
spq-as  | SPIR-V assembler frontend. Drop-in replacement of spirv-as. |
What's different from other crates?
A lot of my works stand in an overlapping field of compilers and graphics systems, so I often have to work with weird or even corrupted SPIR-V binaries. Obviously, existing tools like rspirv is not designed for this. I then decided to develop my own toolkit, which is now the spq family.
Compared with spq, rspirv has more strict requirements on SPIR-V physical layout, which makes it impossible to process bad test cases for other projects. SPIRV-Tools provides Khronos' official assembler and disassembler, while it's hard to be integrated to other Rust projects.
On the other hand, the tools in spq are more tolerant of the input quality. They don't check the semantics strictly to the spec. They won't stop processing unless there is a fatal structural problem making the input totally indecipherable. As a result, you might have to be familiar with the SPIR-V specification so that it serves you well, if you are developing other tools based on spq.
