otherwise, the result is eta * I - (eta * dot(N, I) + sqrt(k)) * N

The input parameters for the incident vector I and the surface normal N must already be normalized to get the desired results.

The type of I and N must be a scalar or vector with a floating-point component type.

The type of eta must be a floating-point scalar.

Result Type, the type of I, the type of N, and the type of eta must all have the same component type.

FindILsb

Integer least-significant bit.

Results in the bit number of the least-significant 1-bit in the binary representation of Value. If Value is 0, the result is -1.

Result Type and the type of Value must both be integer scalar or integer vector types. Result Type and operand types must have the same number of components with the same component width. Results are computed per component.

This instruction is currently limited to 32-bit width components.

InterpolateAtCentroid

Result is the value of the input interpolant sampled at a location inside both the pixel and the primitive being processed. The value obtained would be the same value assigned to the input variable if it were decorated as Centroid.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to the Input Storage Class.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to a scalar or vector whose component type is 32-bit floating-point.

This instruction is only valid in the Fragment execution model.

Result Type and the type that interpolant points to must be the same type.

Use of this instruction requires declaration of the InterpolationFunction capability.

InterpolateAtSample

Result is the value of the input interpolant variable at the location of sample number sample. If multisample buffers are not available, the input variable will be evaluated at the center of the pixel. If sample sample does not exist, the position used to interpolate the input variable is undefined.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to the Input Storage Class.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to a scalar or vector whose component type is 32-bit floating-point.

This instruction is only valid in the Fragment execution model.

The sample operand must be a scalar 32-bit integer.

Result Type and the type that interpolant points to must be the same type.

Use of this instruction requires declaration of the InterpolationFunction capability.

InterpolateAtOffset

Result is the value of the input interpolant variable sampled at an offset from the center of the pixel specified by offset. The two floating-point components of offset, give the offset in pixels in the x and y directions, respectively. An offset of (0, 0) identifies the center of the pixel. The range and granularity of offsets supported are implementation-dependent.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to the Input Storage Class.

The operand interpolant must be a pointer to a scalar or vector whose component type is 32-bit floating-point.

This instruction is only valid in the Fragment execution model.

The offset operand must be a vector of 2 components of 32-bit floating-point type.

Result Type and the type that interpolant points to must be the same type.

Use of this instruction requires declaration of the InterpolationFunction capability.
