The following minimal snippet SEGFAULTS with SDK 26.0 and 26.1. Won't crash if I remove async from the enclosing function signature - but it's impractical in a real project. import Metal import MetalPerformanceShaders let SEED = UInt64(0x0) typealias T = Float16 /* Why ran in async context? Because global GPU object, and async makeMTLFunction, and async makeMTLComputePipelineState. Nevertheless, can trigger the bug without using global @MainActor let myGPU = MyGPU() */ @main struct CMDLine { static func main() async { let ptr = UnsafeMutablePointer<T>.allocate(capacity: 0) async let future: Void = randomFillOnGPU(ptr, count: 0) print("Main thread is playing around") await future print("Successfully reached the end.") } static func randomFillOnGPU(_ buf: UnsafeMutablePointer<T>, count destbufcount: Int) async { // let (device, queue) = await (myGPU.device, myGPU.commandqueue) let myGPU = MyGPU() let (device, queue) = (myGPU.device, myGPU.commandqueue) // Init MTLBuffer, async let makeFunction, makeComputePipelineState, etc. let tempDataType = MPSDataType.uInt32 let randfiller = MPSMatrixRandomMTGP32(device: device, destinationDataType: tempDataType, seed: Int(bitPattern:UInt(SEED))) print("randomFillOnGPU: successfully created MPSMatrixRandom.") // try await computePipelineState // ^ Crashes before this could return // Or in this minimal case, after randomFillOnGPU() returns // make encoder, set pso, dispatch, commit... } } actor MyGPU { let device : MTLDevice let commandqueue : MTLCommandQueue init() { guard let dev: MTLDevice = MPSGetPreferredDevice(.skipRemovable), let cq = dev.makeCommandQueue(), dev.supportsFamily(.apple6) || dev.supportsFamily(.mac2) else { print("Unable to get Metal Device! Exiting"); exit(EX_UNAVAILABLE) } print("Selected device: \(String(format: "%llX", dev.registryID))") self.device = dev self.commandqueue = cq print("myGPU: initialization complete.") } } See FB20916929. Apparently objc autorelease pool is releasing the wrong address during context switch (across suspension points). I wonder why such obvious case has not been caught before.

After watching WWDC 2025 session "Combine Metal 4 machine learning and graphics", I have decided to give it a shot to integrate the latest MTL4MachineLearningCommandEncoder to my existing render pipeline. After a lot of trial and errors, I managed to set up the pipeline and have the app compiled. However, I am now stuck on creating a MTLLibrary with .mtlpackage. Here is the code I have to create a MTLLibrary according the WWDC session https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2025/262/?time=550: let coreMLFilePath = bundle.path(forResource: "my_model", ofType: "mtlpackage")! let coreMLURL = URL(string: coreMLFilePath)! do { metalDevice.makeLibrary(URL: coreMLURL) } catch { print("error: \(error)") } With the above code, I am getting error: Error Domain=MTLLibraryErrorDomain Code=1 "Invalid metal package" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Invalid metal package} What is the correct way to create a MTLLibrary with .mtlpackage? Do I see this error because the .mtlpackage I am using is incorrect? How should I go with debugging this? I'd really appreciate if I could get some help on this as I have been stuck with it for some time now. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I’m testing Unity’s Spaceship HDRP demo on iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPad Pro M4 (iOS 26.1). Everything renders correctly, and my custom MetalFX Spatial plugin initializes successfully — it briefly reports active scaling (e.g. 1434×660 → 2868×1320 at 50% scaling), then reverts to native rendering a few frames later. Setup: Xcode 16.1 (targeting iOS 18) Unity 2022.3.62f3 (HDRP) Metal backend Dynamic Resolution enabled in HDRP assets and cameras Relevant Xcode console excerpt: [MetalFXPlugin] MetalFX_Enable(True) called. [SpaceshipOptions] MetalFX enabled with HDRP dynamic resolution integration. [SpaceshipOptions] Disabled TAA for MetalFX Spatial. [SpaceshipOptions] Created runtime RenderTexture: 1434x660 [MetalFX] Spatial scaler created (1434x660 → 2868x1320). [MetalFX] Processed frame with scaler. [MetalFXPlugin] Sent RenderTexture (1434x660) to MetalFX. Output target 2868x1320. [SpaceshipOptions] MetalFX target set: 1434x660 [SpaceshipOptions] Camera targetTexture cleared after MetalFX handoff. It looks like HDRP clears the camera’s target texture right after MetalFX submits the frame, which causes it to revert to native rendering. Is there a recommended way to persist or rebind the MetalFX output texture when using HDRP on iOS? Unity doesn’t appear to support MetalFX in the Editor either: Thanks!

My app has a number of heterogeneous GPU workloads that all run concurrently. Some of these should be executed with the highest priority because the app’s responsiveness depends on them, while others are triggered by file imports and the like which should have a low priority. If this was running on the CPU I’d assign the former User Interactive QoS and the latter Utility QoS. Is there an equivalent to this for GPU work?

Hello, I am currently working on a research project under ENINCA Consulting, focused on advanced diagnostic tools for pseudorandom number generators (structural metrics, multi-seed stability, cross-architecture reproducibility, and complementary indicators to TestU01). To validate this diagnostic framework, I prototyped a small non-linear 64-bit PRNG (not as a goal in itself, but simply as a vehicle to test the methodology). During these evaluations, I observed something interesting on Apple Silicon (Mac M1): • bit-exact reproducibility between M1 ARM CPU and M1 Metal GPU, • full BigCrush pass on both CPU and Metal backends, • excellent p-values, • stable behaviour across multiple seeds and runs. This was not the intended objective, the goal was mainly to validate the diagnostic concepts, but these results raised some questions about deterministic compute behaviour in Metal. My question: Is there any official guidance on achieving (or expecting) deterministic RNG or compute behaviour across CPU ↔ Metal GPU on Apple Silicon? More specifically: • Are deterministic compute kernels expected or guaranteed on Metal for scientific workloads? • Are there recommended patterns or best practices to ensure reproducibility across GPU generations (M1 → M2 → M3 → M4)? • Are there known Metal features that can introduce non-determinism? I am not sharing the internal recurrence (this work is proprietary), but I can discuss the high-level diagnostic observations if helpful. Thank you for any insight, very interested in how the Metal engineering team views deterministic compute patterns on Apple Silicon. Pascal ENINCA Consulting

Hi, I am using xCode26.x. But my Metal4 classes are not compiling. I downloaded the sample code from Apple's website - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/Metal/processing-a-texture-in-a-compute-function. For example, I am getting errors like "Cannot find protocol declaration for 'MTL4CommandQueue'; I have hit a deadline. Any recommendations are very welcome. I have downloaded the Metal Tool chain. When I run the following commands on the terminal - xcodebuild -showComponent metalToolchain ; xcrun -f metal ; xcrun metal --version I get the following response - Asset Path: /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_MetalToolchain/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded.asset/AssetData Build Version: 17A321 Status: installed Toolchain Identifier: com.apple.dt.toolchain.Metal.32023 Toolchain Search Path: /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/bin/metal Apple metal version 32023.830 (metalfe-32023.830.2) Target: air64-apple-darwin24.6.0 Thread model: posix InstalledDir: /Users/private/Library/Developer/DVTDownloads/MetalToolchain/mounts/86fbaf7b114a899754307896c0bfd52ffbf4fded/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/metal/current/bin

I am puzzled by the setAddress(_:attributeStride:index:) of MTL4ArgumentTable. Can anyone please explain what the attributeStride parameter is for? The doc says that it is "The stride between attributes in the buffer." but why? Who uses this for what? On the C++ side in the shaders the stride is determined by the C++ type, as far as I know. What am I missing here? Thanks!

Hey I'm using the CIDepthBlurEffect Core Image Filter in my app. It seems to work ok but I get these errors in the console when calling the class. CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_scan CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_diffuse CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: sparserendering_xhlrb_copy_back CoreImage Metal library does not contain function for name: plain_or_sRGB_copy Am I missing some sort of import to gain these Metal functions? I am using my own custom shaders but I assume you'd be able to use them along side the built in ones.

Hi, I would like clarification on whether the new hover effects feature introduced in vision os 26 supported pinch gestures through the psvr 2 controllers. In your sample application, I was not able to confirm that this was working. Only pinch clicking with my hands worked. Pulling the trigger on the controller whilst looking at a 3d object did not activate the hover effect spatial event in the sample application. (The object is showing the highlight though) This is inconsistent with hover effect behavior with psvr2 controllers on swift ui views, where the trigger press does count as a button click. The sample I used was this one: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/compositorservices/rendering_hover_effects_in_metal_immersive_apps

On MacBook Pro M3 14" I can profile the Metal App performance by running it, then clicking on the M icon and choosing profile after replay. On Mac Studio M2 Ultra I cannot: the profiler starts and crashes. I have tried everything including reinstalling the OS, Xcode, the Metal SDK, you name it. The app uses the Metal 4 API. The content of the replayer errorinfo report is shown at the end. Any ideas what is going on here and/or what else I can do do root cause this and fix it? FWIW, it was worse on 26.1 (Xcode just reported Metal 4 profiling not available). In 26.2 Xcode attempts to profile and invariably crashes. === Error summary: === 1x DYErrorDomain (512) - guest app crashed (512) 1x com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer (100) - Abort trap: 6 === First Error === Domain: DYErrorDomain Error code: 512 Description: guest app crashed (512) GTErrorKeyPID: 26913 GTErrorKeyProcessName: GPUToolsReplayService GTErrorKeyCrashDate: 2026-01-09 19:22:52 +0000 === Underlying Error #1 === Domain: com.apple.gputools.MTLReplayer Error code: 100 Description: Abort trap: 6 Call stack: 0 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c25850 MakeNSError + 284 1 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249c26428 HandleCrashSignal + 252 2 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x00000001856c7744 _sigtramp + 56 3 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856bd888 pthread_kill + 296 4 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c2850 abort + 124 5 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00000001855c1a84 err + 0 6 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea60a8 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:].cold.1 + 0 7 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea0df8 __77-[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue commitFillArgs:count:args:argsSize:commitFeedback:]_block_invoke + 0 8 IOGPU 0x00000001a9ea1004 -[IOGPUMetal4CommandQueue _commit:count:commitFeedback:] + 148 9 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2c98 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext noMergeCommit:count:options:commitFeedback:error:] + 116 10 AGXMetalG14X 0x0000000115a45c14 +[AGXG14XFamilyRenderContext_mtlnext mergeRenderEncoders:count:options:commitFeedback:queue:error:] + 4740 11 AGXMetalG14X 0x00000001158a2b34 -[AGXG14XFamilyCommandQueue_mtlnext commit:count:options:] + 96 12 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249bf0644 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction_noPinning + 2744 13 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249befb10 GTMTLReplayController_defaultDispatchFunction + 1368 14 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b7a61c _ZL16DispatchFunctionP21GTMTLReplayControllerPK11GTTraceFuncRb + 476 15 GPUToolsReplay 0x0000000249b8603c ___ZN35GTUSCSamplingStreamingManagerHelper19StreamFrameTimeDataEv_block_invoke + 456 16 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c878 __NSBLOCKOPERATION_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 24 17 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c740 -[NSBlockOperation main] + 96 18 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c6d8 __NSOPERATION_IS_INVOKING_MAIN__ + 16 19 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c308 -[NSOperation start] + 640 20 Foundation 0x0000000186f6c080 __NSOPERATIONQUEUE_IS_STARTING_AN_OPERATION__ + 16 21 Foundation 0x0000000186f6bf70 __NSOQSchedule_f + 164 22 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855104d0 _dispatch_block_async_invoke2 + 148 23 libdispatch.dylib 0x000000018551aad4 _dispatch_client_callout + 16 24 libdispatch.dylib 0x00000001855056e4 _dispatch_continuation_pop + 596 25 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185504d58 _dispatch_async_redirect_invoke + 580 26 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185512fc8 _dispatch_root_queue_drain + 364 27 libdispatch.dylib 0x0000000185513784 _dispatch_worker_thread2 + 180 28 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b9e10 _pthread_wqthread + 232 29 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x00000001856b8b9c start_wqthread + 8 Replayer breadcrumbs: [ ] GTErrorKeyProcessSignal: SIGABRT === Setup === Capture device: star.localdomain (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Replay device: star (Mac14,14) - macOS 26.2 (25C56) - 0BA10D1D-D340-5F2E-934B-536675AF9BA1 Metal version: 370.64.2 Supported graphics APIs: Metal device: Apple M2 Ultra Supported GPU families: Apple1 Apple2 Apple3 Apple4 Apple5 Apple6 Apple7 Apple8 Mac1 Mac2 Common1 Common2 Common3 Metal3 Metal4 Host: Mac14,14 - macOS 26.2 (25C56) Tool: Xcode (17C52) Known SDKs:

I am integrating MetalFX FrameInterpolator into a custom Unity RenderGraph–based render pipeline (C++ native plugin + C# render passes), and I am hitting the following assertion at runtime: /MetalFXDebugError.h:29: failed assertion `Color texture width mismatch from descriptor' What makes this confusing is that all input/output textures have the correct width and height, and they exactly match the values specified in the MTLFXFrameInterpolatorDescriptor. Setup Input resolution: 1024 x 512 Output resolution: 2048 x 1024 MTLFXTemporalScaler is created first and then passed into MTLFXFrameInterpolator The TemporalScaler and FrameInterpolator descriptors use the same input/output sizes and formats All Metal textures: Have no parentTexture Are 2D textures Match the descriptor sizes exactly (verified via logging) Texture bindings at encode time frameInterpolator.colorTexture = mtlTexColor; // 1024 x 512 frameInterpolator.prevColorTexture = mtlTexPrevColor; // 1024 x 512 frameInterpolator.motionTexture = mtlTexMotion; // 1024 x 512 frameInterpolator.depthTexture = mtlTexDepth; // 1024 x 512 frameInterpolator.uiTexture = mtlTexUI; // 2048 x 1024 frameInterpolator.outputTexture = mtlTexOutput; // 2048 x 1024 All widths/heights are logged and match: Color : 1024 x 512 (input) PrevColor : 1024 x 512 (input) Motion : 1024 x 512 (input) Depth : 1024 x 512 (input) UI : 2048 x 1024 (output) Output : 2048 x 1024 (output) The TemporalScaler works correctly on its own. The assertion only occurs when using FrameInterpolator. Important detail about colorTexture Originally, colorTexture was copied from BuiltinRenderTextureType.CurrentActive. After reading that this might violate MetalFX semantics, I changed the pipeline so that: colorTexture now comes from a dedicated private RenderGraph texture It is not the backbuffer It is not a drawable It is not used as a final output It is created before UI rendering Despite this, the assertion still occurs. Question Can uiTexture for MTLFXFrameInterpolator legally come from a texture copied from BuiltinRenderTextureType.CurrentActive? More generally: Are there additional hidden constraints on colorTexture / prevColorTexture (such as Metal usage, storageMode, aliasing, or hazard tracking) that could cause this assertion, even when sizes match? Does FrameInterpolator require colorTexture and prevColorTexture to be created in a very specific way (e.g. non-aliased, ShaderRead usage, identical Metal resource properties)? Any clarification on the exact semantic requirements for colorTexture, prevColorTexture, or uiTexture in MetalFX FrameInterpolator would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to create a simple portal like that in RealityKit, but using metal instead of RealityKit. Has anyone been able to create a window or portal like thing to show a skybox outside in mixed Reality?

Hi everyone, I’ve been developing a custom, end-to-end 3D rendering engine called Crescent from scratch using C++20 and Metal-cpp (targeting macOS and visionOS). My primary goal is to build a zero-bottleneck, GPU-driven pipeline that maximizes the potential of Apple Silicon’s Unified Memory and TBDR architecture. While the fundamental systems are stable, I am looking for architectural feedback from Metal framework engineers regarding specific synchronization and latency challenges. Current Core Implementations: GPU-Driven Instance Culling: High-performance occlusion culling using a Hierarchical Z-Buffer (HZB) approach via Compute Shaders. Clustered Forward Shading: Support for high-count dynamic lights through view-space clustering. Temporal Stability: Custom TAA with history rejection and Motion Blur resolve. Asset Infrastructure: Robust GUID-based scene serialization and a JSON-driven ECS hierarchy. The Architectural Challenge: I am currently seeing slight synchronization overhead when generating the HZB mip-chain. On Apple Silicon, I am evaluating the cost of encoder transitions versus cache-friendly barriers. && m_hzbInitPipeline && m_hzbDownsamplePipeline && !m_hzbMipViews.empty(); if (canBuildHzb) { MTL::ComputeCommandEncoder* hzbInit = commandBuffer->computeCommandEncoder(); hzbInit->setComputePipelineState(m_hzbInitPipeline); hzbInit->setTexture(m_depthTexture, 0); hzbInit->setTexture(m_hzbMipViews[0], 1); if (m_pointClampSampler) { hzbInit->setSamplerState(m_pointClampSampler, 0); } else if (m_linearClampSampler) { hzbInit->setSamplerState(m_linearClampSampler, 0); } const uint32_t hzbWidth = m_hzbMipViews[0]->width(); const uint32_t hzbHeight = m_hzbMipViews[0]->height(); const uint32_t threads = 8; MTL::Size tgSize = MTL::Size(threads, threads, 1); MTL::Size gridSize = MTL::Size((hzbWidth + threads - 1) / threads * threads, (hzbHeight + threads - 1) / threads * threads, 1); hzbInit->dispatchThreads(gridSize, tgSize); hzbInit->endEncoding(); for (size_t mip = 1; mip < m_hzbMipViews.size(); ++mip) { MTL::Texture* src = m_hzbMipViews[mip - 1]; MTL::Texture* dst = m_hzbMipViews[mip]; if (!src || !dst) { continue; } MTL::ComputeCommandEncoder* downEncoder = commandBuffer->computeCommandEncoder(); downEncoder->setComputePipelineState(m_hzbDownsamplePipeline); downEncoder->setTexture(src, 0); downEncoder->setTexture(dst, 1); const uint32_t mipWidth = dst->width(); const uint32_t mipHeight = dst->height(); MTL::Size downGrid = MTL::Size((mipWidth + threads - 1) / threads * threads, (mipHeight + threads - 1) / threads * threads, 1); downEncoder->dispatchThreads(downGrid, tgSize); downEncoder->endEncoding(); } if (m_instanceCullHzbPipeline) { dispatchInstanceCulling(m_instanceCullHzbPipeline, true); } } My Questions: Encoder Synchronization: Would you recommend moving this loop into a single ComputeCommandEncoder using MTLBarrier between dispatches to maintain L2 cache residency, or is the overhead of separate encoders negligible for depth-downsampling on TBDR? visionOS Bindless Latency: For stereo rendering on visionOS, what are the best practices for managing MTL4ArgumentTable updates at 90Hz+? I want to ensure that updating bindless resources for each eye doesn't introduce unnecessary CPU-to-GPU latency. Memory Management: Are there specific hints for Memoryless textures that could be applied to intermediate HZB levels to save bandwidth during this process? I’ve attached a screenshot of a scene rendered with the engine (PBR, SSR, and IBL).

Hi. I'm a 3D designer, using Blender for most of my work. The most recent Blender conference discussed utilizing the Open Shading Language (OSL) in their latest versions, which allows designers to write custom shaders for their workflows. At the moment, only Nvidia Optix GPU's can utilize this language for rendering (from what I understand), but Blender developers stated they are waiting on other GPU manufacturers to implement this feature as well. I'm not sure if there are any licensing issues here, but would this be something Apple could implement in Metal to make their hardware more attractive to the 3D design community? Any help or knowledge on this topic would be greatly appreciated.

I'm currently learning Metal. While reading the reference, I came across a strange description. Page 78 in Version 4 Reference (2025-10-25) says: It is legal to call the following set_indices functions to set the indices if the position in the index buffer is valid and if the position in the index buffer is a multiple of 2 (uchar2 overload) or 2 (uchar4 overload). The index I needs to be in the range [0, max_indices). void set_indices(uint I, uchar2 v); void set_indices(uint I, uchar4 v); However, it seems that the uchar4 overload should be multiple of 4. Furthermore, there is no explanation of what these methods actually do. I believe it involves setting two to four consecutive indices at once, but there is no mention of that here. I would like to know if the above understanding is correct.
