# wasm/gl1 — GL 1.x fixed-function pipeline on WebGL2 Emulation layer that lets KiCad's 3D viewer renderer (`RENDER_3D_OPENGL`, pure GL 1.x fixed-function, compiled **unmodified**) render in the browser. Supersedes the no-op link stubs of `wasm/stubs/gl_ffp_stub.c` (git history has the old file): same public surface, real implementations. TDD harness: `tests/3d-regression/` — 47 native-golden scenarios; parity via `npm run 3d:check:parity` (see that README). ## How the symbols resolve In the WASM build, `gl*` are plain C functions split between two providers: - **Emscripten's WebGL library** (`-sMAX_WEBGL_VERSION=2`) owns every modern/WebGL2 name (`glClear`, `glDrawArrays`, `glTexImage2D`, buffers, shaders, stencil...). - **This shim** owns the FFP-only names WebGL2 lacks (`glBegin`, display lists, matrix stack, `glLight*`/`glMaterial*`, client-array pointers, `glTexEnv*`, `glAlphaFunc`, GLU quadrics) — see `src/gl1_entry_ffp.cpp`. The emulator must also *observe* a few Emscripten-owned calls (FFP `glEnable` caps, draws over client arrays, matrix readback, state recorded inside display lists). Those are intercepted with **wasm-ld `--wrap`**: every name in `wrapped_symbols.txt` gets a `-Wl,--wrap=` flag at both link sites, the interceptors live in `src/gl1_entry_wrapped.cpp`, and `__real_*` forwards to the WebGL library. No kicad/wxwidgets sources are touched. Link sites (both read `sources.txt` + `wrapped_symbols.txt`): - `tests/3d-regression/wasm/Makefile` (the TDD harness) - `scripts/kicad/build-kicad-target.sh` (`GL3D_LINK_FLAGS`, production `kicad_editor`) ## Draw routing A `glDrawArrays`/`glDrawElements` call is FFP traffic iff BOTH hold: - the CURRENT WebGL context is the shim's **owner context** (`contextIsOwner()`, adopted at the first FFP client-state mutation or `programSync()` in a context — a draw under any other context is a modern-GL consumer by definition and always passes through, even mid-display-list-recording); - `GL_VERTEX_ARRAY` client state is enabled (only GL1 code calls `glEnableClientState`; the raytracer blit and the 2D WebGL GAL drive their own GLSL programs). The owner gate exists because the client-state flag is process-global and an interrupted FFP window (e.g. `MODEL_3D::BeginDrawMulti` loops crossing a JSPI suspension) can leave it set — without the gate, the 2D GAL's draws got routed through the FFP pipeline (the engine-toggle blank-viewer bug). Two further hardenings from the same bug: - **VAO isolation** (`ScopedDefaultVAO`, gl1_draw.cpp): draw executors bind VAO 0 for their attribute setup and restore the caller's binding — a routed draw arriving with the caller's VAO bound (the blit's attribute 0 collides with `ATTR_POSITION`) must never scribble it. - `contextSync()` resets the client-array mirror entirely on a context change: enables, pointers and captured VBO names all described the dead context. ## Invariants that are easy to break (learned from the native goldens) - **Display lists snapshot client arrays at record time.** The renderer sets `gl*Pointer`, records `glDrawArrays` inside `glNewList`, then `delete[]`s the arrays right after `glEndList` (`layer_triangles.cpp`) — a recorder that stores pointers reads freed memory. Copy eagerly at record. - **Lights live in eye space, captured at `glLightfv` time.** `init_lights()` runs under an identity modelview → the directional lights are anchored to the camera. Re-deriving light directions at draw time breaks every lit scenario. - **Do not "fix" mismatched normal counts.** `generate_middle_triangles` rejecting countersink walls (normals ≠ vertices) is upstream KiCad behavior the goldens document; tolerating it would *diverge* from native. - **Lighting is per-vertex (Gouraud)** to match fixed-function output; per-fragment lighting visibly mismatches speculars on coarse meshes. - **GL object caches are per-context, and the context is mortal.** Closing the 3D viewer destroys its wxGLCanvas's WebGL context; reopening mints a new one in which the cached names (FFP program, stream/scratch VBOs) are invalid — every draw then dies with `INVALID_OPERATION` and the viewer is blank. `contextSync()` (gl1_state.cpp) detects the change in `programSync()` — the one choke point every shim draw crosses and a path the 2D GAL never reaches (a check in any `__wrap_*` would see the GAL's context and ping-pong the owner on 2D↔3D paint alternation) — and drops the caches so they rebuild lazily. Identity comes from a monotonic id stamped on Emscripten's per-context record — NOT the `EMSCRIPTEN_WEBGL_CONTEXT_HANDLE`, which Emscripten recycles (a destroy-then-create can return the same number). Display-list/immediate state is deliberately untouched: it is CPU-only, and the change can be detected mid-scene-rebuild (even inside `glNewList`). Known limit (pre-existing): two *simultaneously live* FFP contexts would thrash the caches on every alternation — the shim still assumes one live 3D-viewer context at a time. ## Layout ``` sources.txt / wrapped_symbols.txt single source of truth for both link sites include/gl1_shim.h internal API + the state mirror src/gl1_entry_ffp.cpp the 52 FFP-only public entry points src/gl1_entry_wrapped.cpp __wrap_* interceptors (mechanism-aware TU) src/gl1_state.cpp state singleton, capability routing src/gl1_matrix.cpp MODELVIEW/PROJECTION stacks (+readback) src/gl1_immediate.cpp glBegin/glEnd + primitive conversion src/gl1_dlist.cpp display-list recorder/replayer src/gl1_draw.cpp draw execution (stream VBO, attrib setup) src/gl1_shaders.cpp the FFP uber-program (ES 3.00) + uniforms src/gl1_glu.cpp GLU quadrics (SGI tessellation) + gluPerspective ```
