Description

Description

Issue encountered while adding tests to the offload test suite:
test/Feature/PushConstant/array_of_matrices.test

Steps to Reproduce

https://godbolt.org/z/jGef817Ge

Actual Behavior

The indices and RowMajor decoration means the indices being accessed are wrong.

Environment

  • DXC version d6b78b745ec23d65a7f8bf1873bff0f2083deaa0
  • Host Operating System Linux

Research direction

Start with test/Feature/PushConstant/array_of_matrices.test and reproduce the issue using the linked Godbolt example. Trace DXC's SPIR-V output for the matrix indices and RowMajor decoration, then verify that the emitted decorations produce the intended accesses and that the test passes.
