问题
This is a question following OpenGL and loading/reading data in AoSoA (hybrid SoA) format.
I am trying to use a shader storage buffer object (SSBO) to store vertex data which is represented in AoSoA format. I am having trouble drawing the vertices, which obviously means that I am doing something wrong somewhere. The problem is that I can't seem to figure out what or where. The answer to the initial question above seems to indicate that I should not be using vertex attribute arrays, so the question then becomes, how do I render this SSBO, given the code I am about to present?
VertexData structure
constexpr auto VECTOR_WIDTH = 4;
constexpr auto VERTEX_COUNT = 16;
struct VertexData
{
std::array<float, VECTOR_WIDTH> px;
std::array<float, VECTOR_WIDTH> py;
};
// Later stored in a std::vector
std::vector<VertexData> vertices(VERTEX_COUNT / VECTOR_WIDTH);
Vertex shader (should this really be a compute shader?)
struct Vertex4
{
float px[4]; // position x
float py[4]; // position y
};
layout(std430, binding=0) buffer VertexData
{
Vertex4 vertices[];
};
void main()
{
int dataIx = gl_VertexID / 4;
int vertexIx = gl_VertexID % 4;
vec2 vertexPosition = vec2(vertices[dataIx].px[vertexIx], vertices[dataIx].py[vertexIx]);
}
Assign vertexPosition index
// Do I need this? Where do I use it? glEnableVertexAttribArray(position_attrib_index)?
const GLuint position_attrib_index = 0;
glBindAttribLocation(program, position_attrib_index, "vertexPosition");
SSBO setup
const GLuint ssbo_binding_point = 0;
GLuint ssbo{};
glGenBuffers(1, &ssbo);
glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo);
//glBufferStorage(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, vertices.size() * sizeof(VertexData), vertices.data(), GL_MAP_WRITE_BIT);
glBufferData(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, vertices.size() * sizeof(VertexData), vertices.data(), GL_STATIC_DRAW);
const auto block_index = glGetProgramResourceIndex(program, GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BLOCK, "VertexData");
glShaderStorageBlockBinding(program, block_index, ssbo_binding_point);
glBindBufferBase(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo_binding_point, ssbo);
glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, 0);
Render loop
while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window)) {
process_input(window);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
glUseProgram(program);
// ???
glfwSwapBuffers(window);
glfwPollEvents();
}
I just can't seem to figure out how this is supposed to work. Grabbing at straws, I also tried creating a VAO with a later call to glDrawArrays(GL_POINTS, 0, VERTEX_COUNT), but it didn't work either:
GLuint vao{};
glGenVertexArrays(1, &vao);
glBindVertexArray(vao);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(position_attrib_index);
glVertexAttribPointer(position_attrib_index, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, nullptr);
It seems to me that I should be using position_attrib_index (which should point to vertexPosition) for something, the question is for what?

回答1:
This is the correct way to issue a draw with the data you have:
glBindVertexArray(vao);
glDrawArrays(GL_POINTS, 0, VERTEX_COUNT);
However, your issue is that your vertex shader does not write to gl_Position, therefore nothing gets rasterized (whatever undefined behavior happens). You should set the position of the vertices in the shader as follows:
//...
out gl_PerVertex {
vec4 gl_Position;
};
void main()
{
int dataIx = gl_VertexID / 4;
int vertexIx = gl_VertexID % 4;
vec2 vertexPosition = vec2(vertices[dataIx].px[vertexIx], vertices[dataIx].py[vertexIx]);
gl_Position = vec4(vertexPosition, 0, 1);
}
You can get rid of "Assign vertexPosition index", and your VAO doesn't need to have any attributes.
