ACO sizes a shader's registers to the waves its shared memory leaves room
for, so stages that declare less shared memory also get fewer registers and
more waves. Three stages hold buffers whose lifetimes do not overlap:
- Encoder 0 at D4R_RR_RELAXED=3: with the one-wave block the gather no
longer needs a pass of its own. The generated shader runs gather, block
and tail in one 32-thread group and hands the features over in shared
memory that the block's XT and KVS reuse (rr2_w.comp RR2_XF_SHARED). No
gather pass, no record in the arena (36 MB of it lay past the arena at
720p). D4R_RR2_SPLIT=1 keeps the pass.
- enc1: the merge input (GT) is in registers before XT or KVS is written:
17 -> 9 KiB, 240 -> 144 vector registers, 6 -> 10 waves per SIMD.
- dec0_1: r and the MLP sum for the tail are written after the block is done
with XT and KVS, as binary16 pairs: 14 -> 8 KiB, 192 -> 120 registers,
8 -> 12 waves per SIMD.
Also D4R_ENGINE_RR_STAGE_STAMPS=1: a timestamp after every network stage and
output group, printed per stage by d4r-rr.
Every image of six temporal frames byte-identical to the previous model
(1280x720 -> 1440p, 1114x626 -> 1080p, 853x480 -> 1440p, robustness2). RX
9070 XT, RADV, 720p -> 1440p: frame 4.09 -> 4.00 ms (enc0 798 -> 772 us,
enc1 286 -> 266, dec0_1 660 -> 623). Other stages' SPIR-V is unchanged.

Models built from nvngx_dlssd.dll 310.9.1 are byte-identical to the capture-built ones (every file, plus
d4r-rr's outputs on capF, capF4K, capF900, capFXparticles and capDT). 310.9.1 contains 310.7's D/E kernels
and weights.
- the weights go into the command buffer with vkCmdUpdateBuffer (recordContents); the host-visible staging
copies are gone, and the host copies are dropped once recorded
- an engine's own output image is created only for frames that do not write the caller's texture
(K, M, RR D/E, RR F), cleared on first use
- preset F: the tile slots share the arena with the network's regions, and the gather records' rows fill the
gaps between encoder 0's regions (rr.txt "s3", six words on enc0's block; D4R_ENGINE_RR_ARENA keeps the
old separate layout for arena dumps)
- the shim reserves the render size the feature was created with for the M/L Vulkan network instead of the
output size; a frame beyond it goes to a second, output-sized engine (1.1 GB less for M, 1.4 for L at
1280x720 -> 4K); replay_m gains D4R_M_CAPACITY
Every reference capture still byte-identical; through the shim the harness process peaks 159 MiB lower.
- layer_m.comp builds relaxed by default (M_RELAXED: f32 accumulators, paired FP8
conversions, no activation table) with two windows per wave sharing weight tiles
(WPW=2); M_EXACT=1 keeps NVIDIA's roundings, bit-identical to the CUDA path
- layer.comp reuses weight tiles across its waves (TPW=2 in the 32-channel layers)
- engine/rr/rr2_w.comp: one wave per window for preset F's dec0_0 and enc0, used by
compile_rr2.py at the new default D4R_RR_RELAXED=3 (build_native_model.sh too);
D4R_RR_FUSE=1 matches the reference's fused multiply-adds, ptx2rr.py --snorm16
- [Engine] Network defaults to vulkan; the HIP network is opt-in
- engine/compile_rr2.py, runtime_rr2.inc, engine/rr/rr2_m.comp, exposure_f.comp,
gen_rr2_enc0.py, rr2_pack.py, rr2_ref.py: the rr2_* model (nvngx_dlssd.dll 310.9's
third network) as d4r's own shaders - exposure, enc0 gather/block split, enc1-5 and
dec4-0 through one matrix shader, translated output passes; weights packed from the
DLL, argument blocks from the capture
- ptx2rr: match the driver's fused roundings - opaque-zero OR around cvt.rn.f16.f32
against v_fma_mix, half-away-from-zero formatted stores, UNORM 10:10:10:2 as RGBA32F
of q/1023, OCML tanhF with the AMDGPU exp lowering, binary16 fma and fetch roundings;
--probe for register bisection against ZLUDA
- dec0_m/swin_m/enc0_*: RR_MIX build option (D4R_RR_MIX=1), one v_fma_mix rounding per
32-deep step, ~5% faster, not bit-exact; default build stays exact
- runtime_rr.inc: RModel/REngine dispatch to the D4RR0002 model; replay_rr: RGBA32F and
A2B10G10R1010 texel sizes, roughnessPacked bit, larger debug staging
- shim: engine\rr-f model slot, 310.9 version probe so preset F is only claimed when the
CUDA path has it; d4r.ini / d4r_config.py Model = F; run_rr_engine_compare.sh D4R_RR_DLL
- kernels/rr/swin_native.h + rr_swin_native_test.cpp: HIP port of encoder 1 for the
FP8-product and rounding cost measurements
- engine/rr/README: preset F's block, options, capture-by-capture results, timings and
the open camera-matrix difference
