1 Chromium Command Buffer 2 ========================== 3 4 It is possible to run Skia's correctness tool, dm, and benchmarking tool, 5 nanobench, on top of the GL ES interface provided by Chromium's command 6 buffer. 7 8 The Skia tools are always built with this support. They dynamically load 9 the command buffer as a shared library and thus no GYP/GN flags are 10 required. 11 12 The command buffer standalone shared library is built in a Chromium checkout 13 by building the `command_buffer_gles2` target. The command buffer should be 14 built with the `is_component_build` in GN set to false. This will produce a .so, 15 .dylib, or .dll depending on the target OS. This should be copied alongside 16 the dm or nanobench executable built from a Skia repository. 17 18 Both tools have a `commandbuffer` config which can be used with the `--config` 19 option to the tool and will run the tests or benchmarks using the command buffer 20 library. Unit tests in dm always run on all appropriate and available backends 21 regardless of the `--config` flag. 22 23
