I started looking into how OpConvertUToPtr can be implemented - initially for RuntimeArrays. Something like this works well, but is not generic:

unsafe fn load_f32_runtime_array_from_handle(handle: u64) -> &'static mut RuntimeArray<f32> {
    asm!(
        "%f32 = OpTypeFloat 32",
        "%runtime_array = OpTypeRuntimeArray %f32",
        "%runtime_array_ptr = OpTypePointer Generic %runtime_array",
        "%result = OpConvertUToPtr %runtime_array_ptr {handle}",
        "OpReturnValue %result",
        handle = in(reg) handle,
        options(noreturn)
    )
}

I know that @msiglreith implemented loading resources from handles in https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/rust-gpu/compare/main...msiglreith:glace, but it looks like that requires a lot of codegen changes - ideally we should keep things at the asm! layer if possible.

Is there a way to make the above function generic over T, or will this require a few codegen changes?

Inizia con l’esempio asm! nell’issue e con il confronto glace collegato per capire come vengono attualmente gestiti gli handle delle risorse e OpConvertUToPtr. Determina se il supporto generico può rimanere al livello asm! o richiede modifiche al codegen; il lavoro è completato quando questo ambito è stato stabilito e il supporto richiesto è stato implementato.
