11/// Handle to a GPU-accessible buffer.
12///
13/// A `Buffer` is a memory allocation for use by the GPU, somewhat analogous to
14/// <code>[Box]&lt;[\[u8\]][primitive@slice]&gt;</code> in Rust.
15/// The contents of buffers are untyped bytes; it is up to the application to
16/// specify the interpretation of the bytes when the buffer is used, in ways
17/// such as [`VertexBufferLayout`].
18/// A single buffer can be used to hold multiple independent pieces of data at
19/// different offsets (e.g. both vertices and indices for one or more meshes).
20///
21/// A `Buffer`'s bytes have "interior mutability": functions like
22/// [`Queue::write_buffer`] or [mapping] a buffer for writing only require a
23/// `&Buffer`, not a `&mut Buffer`, even though they modify its contents. `wgpu`
24/// prevents simultaneous reads and writes of buffer contents using run-time
25/// checks.
26///
27/// Created with [`Device::create_buffer()`] or
28/// [`DeviceExt::create_buffer_init()`].
29///
30/// Corresponds to [WebGPU `GPUBuffer`](https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/#buffer-interface).

33///
34/// # How to get your data into a buffer
35///
36/// Every `Buffer` starts with all bytes zeroed.
37/// There are many ways to load data into a `Buffer`:
38///
39/// - When creating a buffer, you may set the [`mapped_at_creation`][mac] flag,
40///   then write to its [`get_mapped_range_mut()`][Buffer::get_mapped_range_mut].
41///   This only works when the buffer is created and has not yet been used by
42///   the GPU, but it is all you need for buffers whose contents do not change
43///   after creation.
44///   - You may use [`DeviceExt::create_buffer_init()`] as a convenient way to
45///     do that and copy data from a `&[u8]` you provide.
46/// - After creation, you may use [`Buffer::map_async()`] to map it again;
47///   however, you then need to wait until the GPU is no longer using the buffer
48///   before you begin writing.
49/// - You may use [`CommandEncoder::copy_buffer_to_buffer()`] to copy data into
50///   this buffer from another buffer.
51/// - You may use [`Queue::write_buffer()`] to copy data into the buffer from a
52///   `&[u8]`. This uses a temporary “staging” buffer managed by `wgpu` to hold
53///   the data.
54///   - [`Queue::write_buffer_with()`] allows you to write directly into temporary
55///     storage instead of providing a slice you already prepared, which may
56///     allow *your* code to save the allocation of a [`Vec`] or such.
57/// - You may use [`util::StagingBelt`] to manage a set of temporary buffers.
58///   This may be more efficient than [`Queue::write_buffer_with()`] when you
59///   have many small copies to perform, but requires more steps to use, and
60///   tuning of the belt buffer size.
61/// - You may write your own staging buffer management customized to your
62///   application, based on mapped buffers and
63///   [`CommandEncoder::copy_buffer_to_buffer()`].
64/// - A GPU computation’s results can be stored in a buffer:
65///   - A [compute shader][ComputePipeline] may write to a buffer bound as a
66///     [storage buffer][BufferBindingType::Storage].
67///   - A render pass may render to a texture which is then copied to a buffer
68///     using [`CommandEncoder::copy_texture_to_buffer()`].
69///
70/// # Mapping buffers
71///
72/// If a `Buffer` is created with the appropriate [`usage`], it can be *mapped*:
73/// you can make its contents accessible to the CPU as an ordinary `&[u8]` or
74/// `&mut [u8]` slice of bytes. Buffers created with the
75/// [`mapped_at_creation`][mac] flag set are also mapped initially.
76///
77/// Depending on the hardware, the buffer could be memory shared between CPU and
78/// GPU, so that the CPU has direct access to the same bytes the GPU will
79/// consult; or it may be ordinary CPU memory, whose contents the system must
80/// copy to/from the GPU as needed. This crate's API is designed to work the
81/// same way in either case: at any given time, a buffer is either mapped and
82/// available to the CPU, or unmapped and ready for use by the GPU, but never
83/// both. This makes it impossible for either side to observe changes by the
84/// other immediately, and any necessary transfers can be carried out when the
85/// buffer transitions from one state to the other.
86///
87/// There are two ways to map a buffer:
88///
89/// - If [`BufferDescriptor::mapped_at_creation`] is `true`, then the entire
90///   buffer is mapped when it is created. This is the easiest way to initialize
91///   a new buffer. You can set `mapped_at_creation` on any kind of buffer,
92///   regardless of its [`usage`] flags.
93///
94/// - If the buffer's [`usage`] includes the [`MAP_READ`] or [`MAP_WRITE`]
95///   flags, then you can call `buffer.slice(range).map_async(mode, callback)`
96///   to map the portion of `buffer` given by `range`. This waits for the GPU to
97///   finish using the buffer, and invokes `callback` as soon as the buffer is
98///   safe for the CPU to access.
99///
100/// Once a buffer is mapped:
101///
102/// - You can call `buffer.slice(range).get_mapped_range()` to obtain a
103///   [`BufferView`], which dereferences to a `&[u8]` that you can use to read
104///   the buffer's contents.
105///
106/// - Or, you can call `buffer.slice(range).get_mapped_range_mut()` to obtain a
107///   [`BufferViewMut`], which dereferences to a `&mut [u8]` that you can use to
108///   read and write the buffer's contents.
109///
110/// The given `range` must fall within the mapped portion of the buffer. If you
111/// attempt to access overlapping ranges, even for shared access only, these
112/// methods panic.
113///
114/// While a buffer is mapped, you may not submit any commands to the GPU that
115/// access it. You may record command buffers that use the buffer, but if you
116/// submit them while the buffer is mapped, submission will panic.
117///
118/// When you are done using the buffer on the CPU, you must call
119/// [`Buffer::unmap`] to make it available for use by the GPU again. All
120/// [`BufferView`] and [`BufferViewMut`] views referring to the buffer must be
121/// dropped before you unmap it; otherwise, [`Buffer::unmap`] will panic.
122///
123/// # Example
124///
125/// If `buffer` was created with [`BufferUsages::MAP_WRITE`], we could fill it
126/// with `f32` values like this:
127///
128/// ```
129/// # #[cfg(feature = "noop")]
130/// # let (device, _queue) = wgpu::Device::noop(&wgpu::DeviceDescriptor::default());
131/// # #[cfg(not(feature = "noop"))]
132/// # let device: wgpu::Device = { return; };
133/// #
134/// # let buffer = device.create_buffer(&wgpu::BufferDescriptor {
135/// #     label: None,
136/// #     size: 400,
137/// #     usage: wgpu::BufferUsages::MAP_WRITE,
138/// #     mapped_at_creation: false,
139/// # });
140/// let capturable = buffer.clone();
141/// buffer.map_async(wgpu::MapMode::Write, .., move |result| {
142///     if result.is_ok() {
143///         let mut view = capturable.get_mapped_range_mut(..).unwrap();
144///         let mut floats: wgpu::WriteOnly<[[u8; 4]]> = view.slice(..).into_chunks::<4>().0;
145///         floats.fill(42.0f32.to_ne_bytes());
146///         drop(view);
147///         capturable.unmap();
148///     }
149/// });
150/// ```
151///
152/// This code takes the following steps:
153///
154/// - First, it makes a cloned handle to the buffer for capture by
155///   the callback passed to [`map_async`]. Since a [`map_async`] callback may be
156///   invoked from another thread, interaction between the callback and the
157///   thread calling [`map_async`] generally requires some sort of shared heap
158///   data like this. In real code, there might be an [`Arc`] to some larger
159///   structure that itself owns `buffer`.
160///
161/// - Then, it calls [`Buffer::slice`] to make a [`BufferSlice`] referring to
162///   the buffer's entire contents.
163///
164/// - Next, it calls [`BufferSlice::map_async`] to request that the bytes to
165///   which the slice refers be made accessible to the CPU ("mapped"). This may
166///   entail waiting for previously enqueued operations on `buffer` to finish.
167///   Although [`map_async`] itself always returns immediately, it saves the
168///   callback function to be invoked later.
169///
170/// - When some later call to [`Device::poll`] or [`Instance::poll_all`] (not
171///   shown in this example) determines that the buffer is mapped and ready for
172///   the CPU to use, it invokes the callback function.
173///
174/// - The callback function calls [`Buffer::slice`] and then
175///   [`BufferSlice::get_mapped_range_mut`] to obtain a [`BufferViewMut`], which
176///   dereferences to a `&mut [u8]` slice referring to the buffer's bytes.
177///
178/// - It then uses the [`bytemuck`] crate to turn the `&mut [u8]` into a `&mut
179///   [f32]`, and calls the slice [`fill`] method to fill the buffer with a
180///   useful value.
181///
182/// - Finally, the callback drops the view and calls [`Buffer::unmap`] to unmap
183///   the buffer. In real code, the callback would also need to do some sort of
184///   synchronization to let the rest of the program know that it has completed
185///   its work.
186///
187/// If using [`map_async`] directly is awkward, you may find it more convenient to
188/// use [`Queue::write_buffer`] and [`util::DownloadBuffer::read_buffer`].
189/// However, those each have their own tradeoffs; the asynchronous nature of GPU
190/// execution makes it hard to avoid friction altogether.

197/// ## Mapping buffers on the web
198///
199/// When compiled to WebAssembly and running in a browser content process,
200/// `wgpu` implements its API in terms of the browser's WebGPU implementation.
201/// In this context, `wgpu` is further isolated from the GPU:
202///
203/// - Depending on the browser's WebGPU implementation, mapping and unmapping
204///   buffers probably entails copies between WebAssembly linear memory and the
205///   graphics driver's buffers.
206///
207/// - All modern web browsers isolate web content in its own sandboxed process,
208///   which can only interact with the GPU via interprocess communication (IPC).
209///   Although most browsers' IPC systems use shared memory for large data
210///   transfers, there will still probably need to be copies into and out of the
211///   shared memory buffers.
212///
213/// All of these copies contribute to the cost of buffer mapping in this
214/// configuration.

467/// A slice of a [`Buffer`], to be mapped, used for vertex or index data, or the like.
468///
469/// You can create a `BufferSlice` by calling [`Buffer::slice`]:
470///
471/// ```no_run
472/// # let buffer: wgpu::Buffer = todo!();
473/// let slice = buffer.slice(10..20);
474/// ```
475///
476/// This returns a slice referring to the second ten bytes of `buffer`. To get a
477/// slice of the entire `Buffer`:
478///
479/// ```no_run
480/// # let buffer: wgpu::Buffer = todo!();
481/// let whole_buffer_slice = buffer.slice(..);
482/// ```
483///
484/// You can pass buffer slices to methods like [`RenderPass::set_vertex_buffer`]
485/// and [`RenderPass::set_index_buffer`] to indicate which portion of the buffer
486/// a draw call should consult. You can also convert it to a [`BufferBinding`]
487/// with `.try_into()`, which fails if the slice length is 0.
488///
489/// To access the slice's contents on the CPU, you must first [map] the buffer,
490/// and then call [`BufferSlice::get_mapped_range`] or
491/// [`BufferSlice::get_mapped_range_mut`] to obtain a view of the slice's
492/// contents. See the documentation on [mapping][map] for more details,
493/// including example code.
494///
495/// Unlike a Rust shared slice `&[T]`, whose existence guarantees that
496/// nobody else is modifying the `T` values to which it refers, a
497/// [`BufferSlice`] doesn't guarantee that the buffer's contents aren't
498/// changing. You can still record and submit commands operating on the
499/// buffer while holding a [`BufferSlice`]. A [`BufferSlice`] simply
500/// represents a certain range of the buffer's bytes.
501///
502/// The `BufferSlice` type is unique to the Rust API of `wgpu`. In the WebGPU
503/// specification, an offset and size are specified as arguments to each call
504/// working with the [`Buffer`], instead.
