使用SSBO作为下一次绘制调用的VBO输入

Question

我在着色器中写了一些顶点数据给SSBO.然后我想将写入SSBO的数据用作VBO.这些将用于下一次绘制调用.如何才能做到这一点？

这是我现在如何做,但它仍然是段错误:

int new_vertex_count = …;
int new_index_count = …;
int* new_indices = …;

GLuint ssbo[3];
glGenBuffers(3, ssbo);


glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo[1]);
glBufferData(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, new_vertex_count * 3 * sizeof(float), nullptr, GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW);
glBindBufferBase(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, 0, ssbo[1]);

glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo[2]);
glBufferData(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, new_vertex_count * 2 * sizeof(float), nullptr, GL_DYNAMIC_DRAW);
glBindBufferBase(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, 1, ssbo[2]);

glBindVertexArray(vao); //bind the original VAO
glPatchParameteri(GL_PATCH_VERTICES, 16);
glEnable(GL_RASTERIZER_DISCARD); //disable displaying
glDrawElements(GL_PATCHES, index_count, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0); //don't draw, just 
glMemoryBarrier(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BARRIER_BIT); //sync writing
glFinish();
glDisable(GL_RASTERIZER_DISCARD); //reanable displaying for next draw call
glBindVertexArray(0); //unbind original VAO in order to use new VBOs


glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, ssbo[0]);
glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, index_count * sizeof(uint), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, ssbo[1]); //bind SSBO as VBO, is this even possible?
//or should I use new VBOs and copy? How would I copy then?
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, 0);

glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, ssbo[2]);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(1);
glVertexAttribPointer(1, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, 0);

glDrawElements(GL_PATCHES, new_index_count, new_indices, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0); //here the real drawing

没有"SSBO"或"VBO"这样的东西.只有缓冲对象.存储块和顶点数组用于缓冲区对象,但特定缓冲区本身并不与特定用途相关联.没有什么可以阻止你通过存储块写入缓冲区,然后在渲染操作中从中读取缓冲区.

当然,只要您遵循这些写入的非相干内存访问规则.除非您明确提供,否则通过存储块写入不可用于读取操作.你会用glMemoryBarrier它.和方式内存屏障工程是枚举指定要能够看到结果的操作无论是写.

您希望将写入的数据作为顶点属性数组读取.所以你使用:

glMemoryBarrier(GL_VERTEX_ATTRIB_ARRAY_BARRIER_BIT?);
