While debugging an issue with nested loops I simplified my shader to one loop as a sanity check and then hit this compiler panic. It seems to be caused by looping indefinitely (in my shader I forgot to increment a value used in the break condition).

Expected Behaviour

Compiler should error instead of panic.

Actual Behavior

Compiler panics with:

thread 'rustc' panicked at 'assertion failed: list_eq_key(children) ==\n list_eq_key(self.func_def_body.at(unstructured_region).def().children)',
 /Users/schell/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/spirt-0.2.0/src/cfg.rs:1214:13

Example & Steps To Reproduce

Compile this shader:

use glam::{Vec3, Vec4, Vec4Swizzles, Vec3Swizzles};
use spirv_std::{image::Cubemap, Sampler, spirv};

#[cfg(target_arch = "spirv")]
use spirv_std::num_traits::Float;

#[spirv(fragment)]
pub fn fragment_convolve_diffuse_irradiance(
 environment_texture: &Cubemap,
 sampler: &Sampler,
 local_pos: Vec3,
 frag_color: &mut Vec4,
) {
 let pi: f32 = 3.1415927;

 let normal = local_pos.normalize_or_zero();
 let mut irradiance = Vec3::new(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
 let right = Vec3::new(0.0, 1.0, 0.0).cross(normal).normalize_or_zero();
 let up = normal.cross(right).normalize_or_zero();

 let nr_samples = 0.0;
 irradiance += environment_texture.sample(*sampler, up).xyz();
 loop {
 if nr_samples > 2.0 {
 break;
 }

 irradiance += environment_texture.sample(*sampler, up).xyz();
 }
 let color = irradiance * (pi / nr_samples);
 *frag_color = color.xyz().extend(1.0);
}

I've edited the description and title to explicitly mention the message.

This is a "known" panic I have yet to investigate because so far I've only hit it with RUSTGPU_CODEGEN_ARGS=--no-early-report-zombies, which can let some malformed SPIR-V rustc_codegen_spirv generates through, so I just assumed that was the cause here.

If it can happen without RUSTGPU_CODEGEN_ARGS, then this deserves a lot more scrutiny. I'll attempt to minimize the testcase provided (is it complete though? there's no #[spirv(...)], so that's just dead code? EDIT: was just a missing #[spirv(fragment)], added that to the issue description, can confirm it repros).

This reduces somewhat bizarrely:

use spirv_std::spirv;

#[inline(never)]
fn bug(cond: bool) {
 if (if cond { true } else { false }) {}
 loop {}
}

#[spirv(fragment)]
pub fn main() {
 bug(false);
}

I'll have to move --dump-spirt-passes into a helper type that implements Drop so panics don't stop it from showing useful information (in general it seems sensible to do that sort of thing, just because removing 100% of possible panics is hard, esp. before we have a SPIR-T validator).

Starting to suspect it's in part caused by this structurizer special-casing, which has a FIXME:

 // Structured return, the function is fully structurized.
 //
 // FIXME(eddyb) also support structured return when the whole body
 // is divergent, by generating undef constants (needs access to the
 // whole `FuncDecl`, not just `FuncDefBody`, to get the right types).

I forgot about this since, because it apparently never(?) caused any issues in practice, but e.g. "always reach an infinite loop" Rust-GPU shaders wouldn't end up 100% structured - my best guess for why spirv-val doesn't complain is that the actual body is structured, there's just a single unstructured branch at the very start, which SPIR-V doesn't care about ("structured SPIR-V" only puts requirements on merging selects/loops).
