SpecificationNone Summary Adds subgroup functionality to WebGPU. Subgroup operations perform SIMT operations to provide efficient communication and data sharing among groups of invocations. These operations can be used to accelerate applications by reducing memory overheads incurred by inter-invocation communication.

This feature exposes functionality for operations only within a single draw/dispatch. Data is contained within a single users run. WebView application risks Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications? None Goals for experimentation Reason this experiment is being extended The first portion of the origin trial focused on collecting performance feedback data, but was an incomplete implementation of the proposal. In particular, the implementation intentionally lacked the diagnostic controls (and default errors) that serve as portability guard rails. We wish to implement those controls (default values result in error in code that is not provably portable) and collect feedback about how onerous the portability restrictions are in order to provide feedback to the W3C WG. The controls would allow non-portable code, but shader authors would have to add code that opts into this behaviour. We wish to extend through M135. Ongoing technical constraints None Debuggability No special debugging is available for this feature as it resides solely on the GPU. Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?No Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md> ?No Flag name on chrome://flagsNone Finch feature nameNone Non-finch justificationNone Requires code in //chrome?False Estimated milestones Origin trial desktop first 128 Origin trial desktop last 131 Origin trial extension 1 end milestone 135 Origin trial Android first 128 Origin trial Android last 131 Origin trial WebView first 128 Origin trial WebView last 131 Link to entry on the Chrome Platform Status https://chromestatus.com/feature/5126409856221184?gate=5073697141161984 Links to previous Intent discussionsIntent to Experiment: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msgid/blink-dev/CABg%2BrB67gB5gUeDVPaMZ7fZwmeARTUsizs1BTXFXKGpJ%3DpF1TQ%40mail.gmail.com This intent message was generated by Chrome Platform Status <https://chromestatus.com/>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
