- Increase the `max_storage_buffers_per_shader_stage` and `max_storage_textures_per_shader_stage` limits based on what the hardware supports. by @Elabajaba in [#3798]https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3798
- Fix Multiview to disable validation of TextureViewDimension and ArrayLayerCount. By @MalekiRe in [#3779](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3779#issue-1713269437).
The `TextureFormat::describe` function was removed in favor of separate functions: `block_dimensions`, `is_compressed`, `is_srgb`, `required_features`, `guaranteed_format_features`, `sample_type` and `block_size`.
Buffers used as the `destination` argument of `CommandEncoder::resolve_query_set` now have to contain the `QUERY_RESOLVE` usage instead of the `COPY_DST` usage.
```diff
let destination = device.create_buffer(&wgpu::BufferDescriptor {

## v0.15.3 (2023-03-22)
### Bug Fixes
#### Metal
- Fix incorrect mipmap being sampled when using `MinLod <= 0.0` and `MaxLod >= 32.0` or when the fragment shader samples different Lods in the same quad. By @cwfitzgerald in [#3610](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3610).
#### GLES
- Fix `Vertex buffer is not big enough for the draw call.` for ANGLE/Web when rendering with instance attributes on a single instance. By @wumpf in [#3596](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3596)
- Enable `WEBGL_debug_renderer_info` before querying unmasked vendor/renderer to avoid crashing on emscripten in [#3519](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3519)
`Instance::create_surface()` now returns `Result<Surface, CreateSurfaceError>` instead of `Surface`. This allows an error to be returned if the given window is a HTML canvas and obtaining a WebGPU or WebGL 2 context fails. (No other platforms currently report any errors through this path.) By @kpreid in [#3052](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3052/)
A new api, `Queue::copy_external_image_to_texture`, allows you to create wgpu textures from various web image primitives. Specificically from `HtmlVideoElement`, `HtmlCanvasElement`, `OffscreenCanvas`, and `ImageBitmap`. This provides multiple low-copy ways of interacting with the browser. WebGL is also supported, though WebGL has some additional restrictions, represented by the `UNRESTRICTED_EXTERNAL_IMAGE_COPIES` downlevel flag. By @cwfitzgerald in [#3288](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3288)
#### Instance creation now takes `InstanceDescriptor` instead of `Backends`
`Instance::new()` and `hub::Global::new()` now take an `InstanceDescriptor` struct which cointains both the existing `Backends` selection as well as a new `Dx12Compiler` field for selecting which Dx12 shader compiler to use.
```diff
- let instance = Instance::new(wgpu::Backends::all());
+ let instance = Instance::new(wgpu::InstanceDescriptor {
+ backends: wgpu::Backends::all(),
+ dx12_shader_compiler: wgpu::Dx12Compiler::Fxc,
+ });
```
`Instance` now also also implements `Default`, which uses `wgpu::Backends::all()` and `wgpu::Dx12Compiler::Fxc` for `InstanceDescriptor`
```diff
- let instance = Instance::new(wgpu::InstanceDescriptor {
- backends: wgpu::Backends::all(),
- dx12_shader_compiler: wgpu::Dx12Compiler::Fxc,
- });
+ let instance = Instance::default();
```
By @Elabajaba in [#3356](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3356)
The new `view_formats` field in the `TextureDescriptor` is used to specify a list of formats the texture can be re-interpreted to in a texture view. Currently only changing srgb-ness is allowed (ex. `Rgba8Unorm`<=> `Rgba8UnormSrgb`).
Via the `TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES` feature, MSAA x2 and x8 are now supported on textures. To query for x2 or x8 support, enable the feature and look at the texture format flags for the texture format of your choice.
By @39ali in [3140](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3140)
#### DXC Shader Compiler Support for DX12
You can now choose to use the DXC compiler for DX12 instead of FXC. The DXC compiler is faster, less buggy, and allows for new features compared to the old, unmaintained FXC compiler.
You can choose which compiler to use at `Instance` creation using the `dx12_shader_compiler` field in the `InstanceDescriptor` struct. Note that DXC requires both `dxcompiler.dll` and `dxil.dll`, which can be downloaded from https://github.com/microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler/releases. Both .dlls need to be shipped with your application when targeting DX12 and using the `DXC` compiler. If the .dlls can't be loaded, then it will fall back to the FXC compiler. By @39ali and @Elabajaba in [#3356](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3356)
The DX12 backend can now suballocate buffers and textures from larger chunks of memory, which can give a significant increase in performance (in testing a 100x improvement has been seen in a simple scene with 200 `write_buffer` calls per frame, and a 1.4x improvement in [Bistro using Bevy](https://github.com/vleue/bevy_bistro_playground)).
Previously `wgpu-hal`'s DX12 backend created a new heap on the GPU every time you called `write_buffer` (by calling `CreateCommittedResource`), whereas now it uses [`gpu_allocator`](https://crates.io/crates/gpu-allocator) to manage GPU memory (and calls `CreatePlacedResource` with a suballocated heap). By @Elabajaba in [#3163](https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu/pull/3163)
#### Backend selection by features in wgpu-core
Whereas `wgpu-core` used to automatically select backends to enable
based on the target OS and architecture, it now has separate features
to enable each backend:
- "metal", for the Metal API on macOS and iOS
- "vulkan", for the Vulkan API (Linux, some Android, and occasionally Windows)
- "dx12", for Microsoft's Direct3D 12 API
- "gles", OpenGL ES, available on many systems
- "dx11", for Microsoft's Direct3D 11 API
None are enabled by default, but the `wgpu` crate automatically
selects these features based on the target operating system and
architecture, using the same rules that `wgpu-core` used to, so users
of `wgpu` should be unaffected by this change. However, other crates
using `wgpu-core` directly will need to copy `wgpu`'s logic or write
their own. See the `[target]` section of `wgpu/Cargo.toml` for
details.
Similarly, `wgpu-core` now has `emscripten` and `renderdoc` features
that `wgpu` enables on appropriate platforms.
In previous releases, the `wgpu-core` crate decided which backends to
support. However, this left `wgpu-core`'s users with no way to
override those choices. (Firefox doesn't want the GLES back end, for
example.) There doesn't seem to be any way to have a crate select
backends based on target OS and architecture that users of that crate
can still override. Default features can't be selected based on the
target, for example. That implies that we should do the selection as
late in the dependency DAG as feasible. Having `wgpu` (and
`wgpu-core`'s other dependents) choose backends seems like the best
option.
