Summary

This PR implements functionality to generate, save, and load a full-screen 2x2 shading rate pattern for Variable Rate Shading (VRS) testing in the Vulkan demo application.

Changes Made

Backend Implementation

  • Added generate2x2ShadingRate(): Creates a full-screen 2x2 shading rate pattern by filling the entire shading rate image with VK_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_2X2_BIT_KHR (value 0x5)
  • Added save2x2ShadingRate(): Generates and saves the 2x2 pattern to a dedicated file (shading_rate_2x2.dat) with proper metadata validation
  • Added load2x2ShadingRate(): Loads the saved 2x2 pattern with compatibility checks for dimensions and format

Native Interface Integration

  • Added Save2x2ShadingRate() and Load2x2ShadingRate() NAPI functions in PluginRender class
  • Exported new functions through the native interface for JavaScript access
  • Follows existing error handling patterns with proper logging

UI Enhancements

  • Added "Generate & Save 2x2" button (red color) to create and save the special shading rate pattern
  • Added "Load 2x2 Shading Rate" button (blue color) to load the previously saved pattern
  • Maintained consistent styling with existing UI elements
  • Added proper event handling and console logging

Technical Details

The 2x2 shading rate reduces rendering resolution to 1/4 (2x2 pixel blocks share the same fragment shader execution), making it ideal for performance testing scenarios. The implementation:

  • Uses a separate file path to avoid conflicts with regular shading rate saves
  • Maintains full compatibility with existing VRS functionality
  • Includes comprehensive error handling and logging
  • Follows the established code patterns and naming conventions

Testing

The functionality can be tested by:

  1. Running the application with VRS enabled
  2. Clicking "Generate & Save 2x2" to create the pattern
  3. Clicking "Load 2x2 Shading Rate" to apply the saved pattern
  4. Observing the visual difference in rendering quality (should show 2x2 block artifacts)
