+HLSL Root Signatures
+====================

+ :local:
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+In HLSL, the `root signature
+<https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3d12/root-signatures>`_
+defines what types of resources are bound to the graphics pipeline.
+
+A root signature can be specified in HLSL as a `string
+<https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/direct3d12/specifying-root-signatures-in-hlsl#an-example-hlsl-root-signature>`_.
+The string contains a collection of comma-separated clauses that describe root
+signature constituent components.
+
+There are two mechanisms to compile an HLSL root signature. First, it is
+possible to attach a root signature string to a particular shader via the
+RootSignature attribute (in the following example, using the MyRS1 entry
+point):
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ #define RS "RootFlags( ALLOW_INPUT_ASSEMBLER_INPUT_LAYOUT | " \
+ "DENY_VERTEX_SHADER_ROOT_ACCESS), " \
+ "CBV(b0, space = 1, flags = DATA_STATIC), " \
+ "SRV(t0), " \
+ "UAV(u0), " \
+ "DescriptorTable( CBV(b1), " \
+ " SRV(t1, numDescriptors = 8, " \
+ " flags = DESCRIPTORS_VOLATILE), " \
+ " UAV(u1, numDescriptors = unbounded, " \
+ " flags = DESCRIPTORS_VOLATILE)), " \
+ "DescriptorTable(Sampler(s0, space=1, numDescriptors = 4)), " \
+ "RootConstants(num32BitConstants=3, b10), " \
+ "StaticSampler(s1)," \
+ "StaticSampler(s2, " \
+ " addressU = TEXTURE_ADDRESS_CLAMP, " \
+ " filter = FILTER_MIN_MAG_MIP_LINEAR )"
+
+ [RootSignature(RS)]
+ float4 main(float4 coord : COORD) : SV_Target
+ {
+ …
+ }
+
+The compiler will create and verify the root signature blob for the shader and
+embed it alongside the shader byte code into the shader blob.
+
+The other mechanism is to create a standalone root signature blob, perhaps to
+reuse it with a large set of shaders, saving space. The name of the define
+string is specified via the usual -E argument. For example:
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+ dxc.exe -T rootsig_1_1 MyRS1.hlsl -E MyRS1 -Fo MyRS1.fxo
+
+Note that the root signature string define can also be passed on the command
+line, e.g, -D MyRS1=”…”.

+Serialized format
+======================
+The root signature string is parsed and serialized into a binary format. The
+binary format is a sequence of bytes that can be used to create a root signature
+object in the Direct3D 12 API. The binary format is defined by the
+`D3D12_ROOT_SIGNATURE_DESC (for rootsig_1_0)
+<https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/d3d12/ns-d3d12-d3d12_root_signature_desc>`_
+or `D3D12_ROOT_SIGNATURE_DESC1 (for rootsig_1_1)
+<https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/d3d12/ns-d3d12-d3d12_root_signature_desc1>`_
+structure in the Direct3D 12 API.
