the long term goal of this demo is to see if:
(a) we can get stronger coupling between two cores than with multi-core-inverter.
(b) we can get amplification by using a charge-pump like concept.
(c) we can construct a *working* multi-core-inverter from this.
- these tools shouldn't need access to coremem internals.
- lifting them out reduces some dependencies in coremem-the-library.
- separation allows faster iteration in the coremem library while
temporarily breaking the post-processing tools (specifically,
those tools could take deps on a specific coremem version and thereby
we split the update process into two, smaller steps).
this achieves a few things:
- trivial way to get these shipped as the default nix package
- better dependency management
- ability to split large applications into multiple files
the README probably needs some updating.
this was a hack from earlier where we needed a different lib types
based on whethere we were targeting the native host or the spirv
backend.
at some point we no longer needed different lib types. so the _lib piece
is unnecessary.
this solves an issue in the Nix build, where managing multiple
Cargo.lock files is otherwise tricky. it causes (or fails to fix?) an adjacent issue where
the spirv builder doesn't seem to have everything it needs vendored.
this means that we unconditionally build the spirv runner,
and hence it requires that the user setup the proper rustc toolchain,
etc. may want to hide this behind a feature flag.
this resolves the issue where Nix builds would segfault when trying to
initialize wgpu -- *possibly* because of multiple dynamically linked
versions of LLVM sitting in the mix (hence, dylib => lib).
also add the Cargo.lock files to version control, since the spirv stuff
is highly dependent on specific versions of dependencies.
TODO: update wgpu to 0.12
