10.1 本篇概述

RHI全称是Render Hardware Interface（渲染硬件接口），是UE渲染体系中非常基础且重要的模块，封装了众多图形API（DirectX、OpenGL、Vulkan、Metal）之间的差异，对Game和Renderer模块提供了简便且一致的概念、数据、资源和接口，实现一份渲染代码跑在多个平台的目标。

Game、Renderer、RHI分层示意图，其中RHI是平台相关的内容。

最初的RHI是基于D3D11 API设计而成，包含了资源管理和命令接口：

开启RHI线程的情况下，与RHI相伴相随的还有RHI线程，它负责将渲染线程Push进来的RHI中间指令转译到对应图形平台的GPU指令。在部分图形API（DX12、Vulkan、主机）支持并行的情况下，如果渲染线程是并行生成的RHI中间指令，那么RHI线程也会并行转译。

UE4的渲染线程并行生成中间指令和RHI线程并行转译后提交渲染指令示意图。

本篇将着重阐述RHI的基础概念、类型、接口，它们之间的关联，涉及的原理和机制等内容，也会少量涉及具体图形API的实现细节。

 

10.2 RHI基础

本章将分析RHI涉及的基础概念和类型，阐述它们之间的关系和原理。

10.2.1 FRenderResource

FRenderResource是渲染线程的渲染资源代表，由渲染线程管理和传递，介于游戏线程和RHI线程的中间数据。由于之前篇章虽然有涉及它的概念，但没有详细阐述，所以放到此篇章中。FRenderResource的定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RenderCore\Public\RenderResource.h

class RENDERCORE_API FRenderResource
{
public:
    // 遍历所有资源, 执行回调接口.
    template<typename FunctionType>
    static void ForAllResources(const FunctionType& Function);
    static void InitRHIForAllResources();
    static void ReleaseRHIForAllResources();
    static void ChangeFeatureLevel(ERHIFeatureLevel::Type NewFeatureLevel);

    FRenderResource();
    FRenderResource(ERHIFeatureLevel::Type InFeatureLevel);
    virtual ~FRenderResource();
    
    // 以下接口只能被渲染线程调用.

    // 初始化此资源的动态RHI资源和(或)RHI渲染目标纹理.
    virtual void InitDynamicRHI() {}
    // 释放此资源的动态RHI资源和(或)RHI渲染目标纹理.
    virtual void ReleaseDynamicRHI() {}

    // 初始化此资源使用的RHI资源.
    virtual void InitRHI() {}
    // 释放此资源使用的RHI资源.
    virtual void ReleaseRHI() {}

    // 初始化资源.
    virtual void InitResource();
    // 释放资源.
    virtual void ReleaseResource();

    // 如果RHI资源已被初始化, 会被释放并重新初始化.
    void UpdateRHI();

    virtual FString GetFriendlyName() const { return TEXT("undefined"); }
    FORCEINLINE bool IsInitialized() const { return ListIndex != INDEX_NONE; }

    static void InitPreRHIResources();

private:
    // 全局资源列表(静态).
    static TArray<FRenderResource*>& GetResourceList();
    static FThreadSafeCounter ResourceListIterationActive;

    int32 ListIndex;
    TEnumAsByte<ERHIFeatureLevel::Type> FeatureLevel;
    
    (......)
};

下面是游戏线程向渲染线程发送操作FRenderResource的接口：

// 初始化/更新/释放资源.
extern RENDERCORE_API void BeginInitResource(FRenderResource* Resource);
extern RENDERCORE_API void BeginUpdateResourceRHI(FRenderResource* Resource);
extern RENDERCORE_API void BeginReleaseResource(FRenderResource* Resource);
extern RENDERCORE_API void StartBatchedRelease();
extern RENDERCORE_API void EndBatchedRelease();
extern RENDERCORE_API void ReleaseResourceAndFlush(FRenderResource* Resource);

FRenderResource只是基础父类，定义了一组渲染资源的行为，实际的数据和逻辑由子类实现。涉及的子类和层级比较多且复杂，下面是部分重要子类的定义：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RenderCore\Public\RenderResource.h

// 纹理资源.
class FTexture : public FRenderResource
{
public:
    FTextureRHIRef        TextureRHI;         // 纹理的RHI资源.
    FSamplerStateRHIRef SamplerStateRHI; // 纹理的采样器RHI资源.
    FSamplerStateRHIRef DeferredPassSamplerStateRHI; // 延迟通道采样器RHI资源.

    mutable double        LastRenderTime; // 上次渲染的时间.
    FMipBiasFade        MipBiasFade;     // 淡入/淡出的Mip偏移值.
    bool                bGreyScaleFormat; // 灰度图.
    bool                bIgnoreGammaConversions; // 是否忽略Gamma转换.
    bool                bSRGB;             // 是否sRGB空间的颜色.
    
    virtual uint32 GetSizeX() const;
    virtual uint32 GetSizeY() const;
    virtual uint32 GetSizeZ() const;

    // 释放资源.
    virtual void ReleaseRHI() override
    {
        TextureRHI.SafeRelease();
        SamplerStateRHI.SafeRelease();
        DeferredPassSamplerStateRHI.SafeRelease();
    }
    virtual FString GetFriendlyName() const override { return TEXT("FTexture"); }
    
    (......)

protected:
    RENDERCORE_API static FRHISamplerState* GetOrCreateSamplerState(const FSamplerStateInitializerRHI& Initializer);
};

// 包含了SRV/UAV的纹理资源.
class FTextureWithSRV : public FTexture
{
public:
    // 访问整张纹理的SRV.
    FShaderResourceViewRHIRef ShaderResourceViewRHI;
    // 访问整张纹理的UAV.
    FUnorderedAccessViewRHIRef UnorderedAccessViewRHI;

    virtual void ReleaseRHI() override;
};

// 持有RHI纹理资源引用的渲染资源.
class RENDERCORE_API FTextureReference : public FRenderResource
{
public:
    // 纹理的RHI资源引用.
    FTextureReferenceRHIRef    TextureReferenceRHI;

    // FRenderResource interface.
    virtual void InitRHI();
    virtual void ReleaseRHI();
    
    (......)
};

class RENDERCORE_API FVertexBuffer : public FRenderResource
{
public:
    // 顶点缓冲的RHI资源引用.
    FVertexBufferRHIRef VertexBufferRHI;

    virtual void ReleaseRHI() override;
    
    (......);
};

class RENDERCORE_API FVertexBufferWithSRV : public FVertexBuffer
{
public:
    // 访问整个缓冲区的SRV/UAV.
    FShaderResourceViewRHIRef ShaderResourceViewRHI;
    FUnorderedAccessViewRHIRef UnorderedAccessViewRHI;

    (......)
};

// 索引缓冲.
class FIndexBuffer : public FRenderResource
{
public:
    // 索引缓冲对应的RHI资源.
    FIndexBufferRHIRef IndexBufferRHI;

    (......)
};

以上可知，FRenderResource的子类就是对应地将RHI的子类资源封装起来，以便渲染线程将游戏线程的数据和操作传递到RHI线程（或模块）中。下面来个UML图将FRenderResource的部分继承体系直观地呈现出来：

classDiagram-v2 FRHIResource <-- FRenderResource FRenderResource <|-- FTextureReference FRenderResource <|-- FTexture FTexture <|-- FTextureWithSRV FTexture <|-- FTextureResource FTextureResource <|-- FStaticShadowDepthMap FTextureResource <|-- FTexture2DDynamicResource FTextureResource <|-- FTextureRenderTargetResource FTextureRenderTargetResource <|-- FTextureRenderTarget2DResource FTextureRenderTargetResource <|-- FTextureRenderTargetCubeResource FRenderResource <|-- FVertexBuffer FVertexBuffer <|-- FTangentsVertexBuffer FVertexBuffer <|-- FVertexBufferWithSRV FVertexBuffer <|-- FColorVertexBuffer FVertexBuffer <|-- FPositionVertexBuffer FVertexBuffer <|-- FSkinWeightDataVertexBuffer FRenderResource <|-- FIndexBuffer FIndexBuffer <|-- FDynamicMeshIndexBuffer16 FIndexBuffer <|-- FDynamicMeshIndexBuffer32 FIndexBuffer <|-- FRawIndexBuffer FIndexBuffer <|-- FRawStaticIndexBuffer FVertexBufferWithSRV <|-- FWhiteVertexBuffer FVertexBufferWithSRV <|-- FEmptyVertexBuffer class FRenderResource{ InitDynamicRHI() ReleaseDynamicRHI() InitRHI() ReleaseRHI() InitResource() ReleaseResource() UpdateRHI() } class FTexture{ FTextureRHIRef TextureRHI; FSamplerStateRHIRef SamplerStateRHI; } class FTextureWithSRV{ FShaderResourceViewRHIRef ShaderResourceViewRHI; FUnorderedAccessViewRHIRef UnorderedAccessViewRHI; } class FTextureReference{ FTextureReferenceRHIRef TextureReferenceRHI; } class FVertexBuffer{ FVertexBufferRHIRef VertexBufferRHI; } class FVertexBufferWithSRV{ FShaderResourceViewRHIRef ShaderResourceViewRHI; FUnorderedAccessViewRHIRef UnorderedAccessViewRHI; } class FIndexBuffer{ FIndexBufferRHIRef IndexBufferRHI; }

如果看不清请点击下面的图片：

再次强调，以上只是FRenderResource的部分继承体系，无法完整地绘制出来。可知FRenderResource拥有庞大的子类层级关系，以适应和满足UE渲染体系在资源方面复杂多变的的需求。

10.2.2 FRHIResource

FRHIResource抽象了GPU侧的资源，也是众多RHI资源类型的父类。定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHIResources.h

class RHI_API FRHIResource
{
public:
    FRHIResource(bool InbDoNotDeferDelete = false);
    virtual ~FRHIResource();
    
    // 资源的引用计数.
    uint32 AddRef() const;
    uint32 Release() const
    {
        int32 NewValue = NumRefs.Decrement();
        if (NewValue == 0)
        {
            if (!DeferDelete())
            { 
                delete this;
            }
            else
            {
                // 加入待删除列表.
                if (FPlatformAtomics::InterlockedCompareExchange(&MarkedForDelete, 1, 0) == 0)
                {
                    PendingDeletes.Push(const_cast<FRHIResource*>(this));
                }
            }
        }
        return uint32(NewValue);
    }
    uint32 GetRefCount() const;
    
    // 静态接口.
    static void FlushPendingDeletes(bool bFlushDeferredDeletes = false);
    static bool PlatformNeedsExtraDeletionLatency();
    static bool Bypass();

    void DoNoDeferDelete();
    // 瞬时资源追踪.
    void SetCommitted(bool bInCommitted);
    bool IsCommitted() const;
    bool IsValid() const;

private:
    // 运行时标记和数据.
    mutable FThreadSafeCounter NumRefs;
    mutable int32 MarkedForDelete;
    bool bDoNotDeferDelete;
    bool bCommitted;

    // 待删除的资源.
    static TLockFreePointerListUnordered<FRHIResource, PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE> PendingDeletes;
    // 正在删除的资源.
    static FRHIResource* CurrentlyDeleting;

    bool DeferDelete() const;

    // 有些api不做内部引用计数，所以必须在删除资源之前等待额外的几帧，以确保GPU完全完成它们. 可避免昂贵的栅栏等.
    struct ResourcesToDelete
    {
        TArray<FRHIResource*>    Resources;    // 待删除的资源.
        uint32                    FrameDeleted; // 等待的帧数.
        
        (......)
    };

    // 延迟删除的资源队列.
    static TArray<ResourcesToDelete> DeferredDeletionQueue;
    static uint32 CurrentFrame;
};

以上可知，FRHIResource提供了几种功能：引用计数、延迟删除及追踪、运行时数据和标记。它拥有数量众多的子类，主要有：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHIResources.h

// 状态块(State blocks)资源

    virtual bool IsImmutable() const { return false; }

};

public:
    virtual bool GetInitializer(struct FDepthStencilStateInitializerRHI& Init) { return false; }
};
class FRHIBlendState : public FRHIResource
{
public:
    virtual bool GetInitializer(class FBlendStateInitializerRHI& Init) { return false; }
};

// 着色器绑定资源.

typedef TArray<struct FVertexElement,TFixedAllocator<MaxVertexElementCount> > FVertexDeclarationElementList;

{
public:
    virtual bool GetInitializer(FVertexDeclarationElementList& Init) { return false; }
};

以上可知，FRHIResource的种类和子类都非常多，可分为状态块、着色器绑定、着色器、管线状态、缓冲区、纹理、视图以及其它杂项。需要注意的是，以上只是显示了平台无关的基础类型，实际上，在不同的图形API中，会继承上面的类型。以FRHIUniformBuffer为例，它的继承体系如下：

classDiagram-v2 FRHIResource <|-- FRHIUniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FD3D11UniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FD3D12UniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FOpenGLUniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FVulkanUniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FMetalSuballocatedUniformBuffer FRHIUniformBuffer <|-- FEmptyUniformBuffer

以上显示出FRHIUniformBuffer在D3D11、D3D12、OpenGL、Vulkan、Metal等图形API的子类，以便实现统一缓冲区的平台相关的资源和操作接口，还有一个特殊的空实现FEmptyUniformBuffer。

与FRHIUniformBuffer类似的是，FRHIResource的其它直接或间接子类也需要被具体的图形API或操作系统子类实现，以支持在该平台的渲染。下面绘制出最复杂的纹理资源类继承体系UML图：

classDiagram-v2 FRHIResource <|-- FRHITexture FRHITexture <|-- FRHITexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FRHITexture2DArray FRHITexture <|-- FRHITexture3D FRHITexture <|-- FRHITextureCube FRHITexture <|-- FRHITextureReference FRHITextureReference <|-- FRHITextureReferenceNullImpl FRHITexture2D <|-- FMetalTexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FD3D12BaseTexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FOpenGLBaseTexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FVulkanTexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FD3D11BaseTexture2D FRHITexture2D <|-- FEmptyTexture2D

如果看不清请点击放大下面的图片版本：

需要注意，上图做了简化，除了FRHITexture2D会被各个图形API继承子类，其它纹理类型（如FRHITexture2DArray、FRHITexture3D、FRHITextureCube、FRHITextureReference）也会被各个平台继承并实现。

10.2.3 FRHICommand

FRHICommand是RHI模块的渲染指令基类，这些指令通常由渲染线程通过命令队列Push到RHI线程，在合适的时机由RHI线程执行。FRHICommand同时又继承自FRHICommandBase，它们的定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

// RHI命令基类.
struct FRHICommandBase
{
    // 下一个命令. (命令链表的节点)
    FRHICommandBase* Next = nullptr;
    
    // 执行命令后销毁.
    virtual void ExecuteAndDestruct(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList, FRHICommandListDebugContext& DebugContext) = 0;
};

emplate<typename TCmd, typename NameType = FUnnamedRhiCommand>
struct FRHICommand : public FRHICommandBase
{
    // 执行命令后销毁.
    void ExecuteAndDestruct(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList, FRHICommandListDebugContext& Context) override final
    {
        TCmd *ThisCmd = static_cast<TCmd*>(this);
        ThisCmd->Execute(CmdList);
        ThisCmd->~TCmd();
    }
};

值得一提的是，FRHICommandBase有指向下一个节点的Next变量，意味着FRHICommandBase是命令链表的节点。FRHICommand拥有数量众多的子类，是通过特殊的宏来快速声明：

// 定义RHI命令子类的宏
#define FRHICOMMAND_MACRO(CommandName)                                \
struct PREPROCESSOR_JOIN(CommandName##String, __LINE__)                \
{                                                                    \
    static const TCHAR* TStr() { return TEXT(#CommandName); }        \
};                                                                    \
// 命令继承了FRHICommand.
struct CommandName final : public FRHICommand<CommandName, PREPROCESSOR_JOIN(CommandName##String, __LINE__)>

有了以上的宏，就可以快速定义FRHICommand的子类（亦即具体的RHI命令），例如：

FRHICOMMAND_MACRO(FRHICommandSetStencilRef)
{
    uint32 StencilRef;
    FORCEINLINE_DEBUGGABLE FRHICommandSetStencilRef(uint32 InStencilRef)
        : StencilRef(InStencilRef)
    {
    }
    RHI_API void Execute(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList);
};

展开宏定义之后，代码如下：

struct FRHICommandSetStencilRefString853
{
    static const TCHAR* TStr() { return TEXT("FRHICommandSetStencilRef"); }
};

// FRHICommandSetStencilRef继承了FRHICommand.
struct FRHICommandSetStencilRef final : public FRHICommand<FRHICommandSetStencilRef, FRHICommandSetStencilRefString853>
{
    uint32 StencilRef;
    FRHICommandSetStencilRef(uint32 InStencilRef)
        : StencilRef(InStencilRef)
    {
    }
    RHI_API void Execute(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList);
};

利用FRHICOMMAND_MACRO声明的RHI命令数量众多，下面列举其中一部分：

FRHICOMMAND_MACRO(FRHICommandRayTraceDispatch)
FRHICOMMAND_MACRO(FRHICommandSetRayTracingBindings)
FRHICOMMAND_MACRO(FRHICommandClearRayTracingBindings)

FRHICommand的子类除了以上用FRHICOMMAND_MACRO声明的，还拥有以下直接派生的：

• FRHICommandSetShaderParameter
• FRHICommandSetShaderUniformBuffer
• FRHICommandSetShaderTexture
• FRHICommandSetShaderResourceViewParameter
• FRHICommandSetUAVParameter
• FRHICommandSetShaderSampler
• FRHICommandSetComputeShader
• FRHICommandSetComputePipelineState
• FRHICommandDispatchComputeShader
• FRHICommandDispatchIndirectComputeShader
• FRHICommandSetAsyncComputeBudget
• FRHICommandCopyToStagingBuffer
• FRHICommandWriteGPUFence
• FRHICommandSetLocalUniformBuffer
• FRHICommandSubmitCommandsHint
• FRHICommandPushEvent
• FRHICommandPopEvent
• FRHICommandBuildAccelerationStructure
• FRHICommandBuildAccelerationStructures
• ......

无论是直接派生还是用FRHICOMMAND_MACRO，没有本质的区别，都是FRHICommand的子类，都是可以提供给渲染线程操作的RHI层中间渲染命令。只是用FRHICOMMAND_MACRO会更简便，少写一些重复的代码罢了。

因此可知，RHI命令种类繁多，主要包含以下几大类：

• 数据和资源的设置、更新、清理、转换、拷贝、回读。
• 图元绘制。
• Pass、SubPass、场景、ViewPort等的开始和结束事件。
• 栅栏、等待、广播接口。
• 光线追踪。
• Slate、调试相关的命令。

下面绘制出FRHICommand的核心继承体系：

10.2.4 FRHICommandList

FRHICommandListBase定义了命令队列所需的基本数据（命令列表、设备上下文）和接口（命令的刷新、等待、入队、派发等，内存分配）。FRHIComputeCommandList定义了计算着色器相关的接口、GPU资源状态转换和着色器部分参数的设置。FRHICommandList定义了普通渲染管线的接口，包含VS、PS、GS的绑定，图元绘制，更多着色器参数的设置和资源状态转换，资源创建、更新和等待等等。

以上可知，IRHICommandContext的接口和FRHICommandList的接口高度相似且重叠。IRHICommandContext还有许多子类：

• IRHICommandContextPSOFallback：不支持真正的图形管道的RHI命令上下文。

  • FNullDynamicRHI：空实现的动态绑定RHI。
  • FOpenGLDynamicRHI：OpenGL的动态RHI。
  • FD3D11DynamicRHI：D3D11的动态RHI。

• FMetalRHICommandContext：Metal平台的命令上下文。

• FD3D12CommandContextBase：D3D12的命令上下文。

• FVulkanCommandListContext：Vulkan平台的命令队列上下文。

• FEmptyDynamicRHI：动态绑定的RHI实现的接口。

• FValidationContext：校验上下文。

上述的子类中，平台相关的部分子类还继承了FDynamicRHI。IRHICommandContextPSOFallback比较特殊，它的子类都是不支持并行绘制的图形API（OpenGL、D3D11）。IRHICommandContextPSOFallback定义如下：

class IRHICommandContextPSOFallback : public IRHICommandContext
{
public:
    // 设置渲染状态.
    virtual void RHISetBoundShaderState(FRHIBoundShaderState* BoundShaderState) = 0;
    virtual void RHISetDepthStencilState(FRHIDepthStencilState* NewState, uint32 StencilRef) = 0;
    virtual void RHISetRasterizerState(FRHIRasterizerState* NewState) = 0;
    virtual void RHISetBlendState(FRHIBlendState* NewState, const FLinearColor& BlendFactor) = 0;
    virtual void RHIEnableDepthBoundsTest(bool bEnable) = 0;
    // 管线状态.
    virtual void RHISetGraphicsPipelineState(FRHIGraphicsPipelineState* GraphicsState, bool bApplyAdditionalState) override;
};

IRHICommandContext的核心继承UML图如下：

classDiagram-v2 IRHIComputeContext <|.. IRHICommandContext IRHICommandContext <|..

10.3.2 IRHICommandContextContainer

IRHICommandContextContainer就是包含了IRHICommandContext对象的类型，它和核心继承子类的定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

class IRHICommandContextContainer
{
public:
    virtual ~IRHICommandContextContainer();

    // 获取IRHICommandContext实例.
    virtual IRHICommandContext* GetContext();
    virtual void SubmitAndFreeContextContainer(int32 Index, int32 Num);
    virtual void FinishContext();
};

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Apple\MetalRHI\Private\MetalContext.cpp

class FMetalCommandContextContainer : public IRHICommandContextContainer
{
    // FMetalRHICommandContext列表的下一个.
    FMetalRHICommandContext* CmdContext;
    int32 Index;
    int32 Num;
    
public:
    void* operator new(size_t Size);
    void operator delete(void *RawMemory);
    
    FMetalCommandContextContainer(int32 InIndex, int32 InNum);
    virtual ~FMetalCommandContextContainer() override final;
    
    virtual IRHICommandContext* GetContext() override final;
    virtual void FinishContext() override final;
    // 提交并释放自己.
    virtual void SubmitAndFreeContextContainer(int32 NewIndex, int32 NewNum) override final;
};

// FMetalCommandContextContainer分配器.
static TLockFreeFixedSizeAllocator<sizeof(FMetalCommandContextContainer), PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE, FThreadSafeCounter> FMetalCommandContextContainerAllocator;

// Engine\Source\Runtime\D3D12RHI\Private\D3D12CommandContext.cpp

class FD3D12CommandContextContainer : public IRHICommandContextContainer
{
    // 适配器.
    FD3D12Adapter* Adapter;
    // 命令上下文.
    FD3D12CommandContext* CmdContext;
    // 上下文重定向器.
    FD3D12CommandContextRedirector* CmdContextRedirector;
    FRHIGPUMask GPUMask;

    // 命令队列列表.
    TArray<FD3D12CommandListHandle> CommandLists;

public:
    void* operator new(size_t Size);
    void operator delete(void* RawMemory);

    FD3D12CommandContextContainer(FD3D12Adapter* InAdapter, FRHIGPUMask InGPUMask);
    virtual ~FD3D12CommandContextContainer() override

    virtual IRHICommandContext* GetContext() override;
    virtual void FinishContext() override;
    virtual void SubmitAndFreeContextContainer(int32 Index, int32 Num) override;
};

// Engine\Source\Runtime\VulkanRHI\Private\VulkanContext.h

struct FVulkanCommandContextContainer : public IRHICommandContextContainer, public VulkanRHI::FDeviceChild
{
    // 命令队列上下文.
    FVulkanCommandListContext* CmdContext;

    FVulkanCommandContextContainer(FVulkanDevice* InDevice);

    virtual IRHICommandContext* GetContext() override final;
    virtual void FinishContext() override final;
    virtual void SubmitAndFreeContextContainer(int32 Index, int32 Num) override final;

    void* operator new(size_t Size);
    void operator delete(void* RawMemory);
};

IRHICommandContextContainer相当于存储了一个或一组命令上下文的容器，以支持并行化地提交命令队列，只在D3D12、Metal、Vulkan等现代图形API中有实现。完整继承UML图如下：

classDiagram-v2 IRHICommandContextContainer <|-- FMetalCommandContextContainer class IRHICommandContextContainer{ IRHICommandContext* GetContext() SubmitAndFreeContextContainer() FinishContext() } class FMetalCommandContextContainer{ FMetalRHICommandContext* CmdContext } IRHICommandContextContainer <|-- FD3D12CommandContextContainer class FD3D12CommandContextContainer{ FD3D12Adapter* Adapter FD3D12CommandContext* CmdContext FD3D12CommandContextRedirector* CmdContextRedirector TArray<FD3D12CommandListHandle> CommandLists } IRHICommandContextContainer <|-- FVulkanCommandContextContainer class FVulkanCommandContextContainer{ FVulkanCommandListContext* CmdContext } IRHICommandContextContainer <|-- FValidationRHICommandContextContainer

10.3.3 FDynamicRHI

    (......)

    // FlushType: Thread safe
    virtual class IRHICommandContextContainer* RHIGetCommandContextContainer(int32 Index, int32 Num) = 0;

    // 直接由渲染线程调用的接口, 以优化RHI调用.
    virtual FVertexBufferRHIRef CreateAndLockVertexBuffer_RenderThread(class FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList, uint32 Size, uint32 InUsage, ERHIAccess InResourceState, FRHIResourceCreateInfo& CreateInfo, void*& OutDataBuffer);
    virtual FIndexBufferRHIRef CreateAndLockIndexBuffer_RenderThread(class FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList, uint32 Stride, uint32 Size, uint32 InUsage, ERHIAccess InResourceState, FRHIResourceCreateInfo& CreateInfo, void*& OutDataBuffer);
    
    (......)

    // Buffer Lock/Unlock
    virtual void* LockVertexBuffer_BottomOfPipe(class FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList, ...);
    virtual void* LockIndexBuffer_BottomOfPipe(class FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList, ...);
    
    (......)
};

以上只显示了部分接口，其中部分接口要求从渲染线程调用，部分须从游戏线程调用。大多数接口在被调用前需刷新指定类型的命令，比如：

class RHI_API FDynamicRHI
{
    // FlushType: Wait RHI Thread
    void RHIExecuteCommandList(FRHICommandList* CmdList);

    // FlushType: Flush Immediate
    void RHIBlockUntilGPUIdle();

    // FlushType: Thread safe 
    void RHITick(float DeltaTime);
};

那么调用以上接口的代码如下：

class RHI_API FRHICommandListImmediate : public FRHICommandList
{
    void ExecuteCommandList(FRHICommandList* CmdList)
    {
        // 等待RHI线程.
        FScopedRHIThreadStaller StallRHIThread(*this);
        GDynamicRHI->RHIExecuteCommandList(CmdList);
    }
    
    void BlockUntilGPUIdle()
    {
        // 调用FDynamicRHI::RHIBlockUntilGPUIdle须刷新RHI.
        ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThread);  
        GDynamicRHI->RHIBlockUntilGPUIdle();
    }
    
    void Tick(float DeltaTime)
    {
        // 由于FDynamicRHI::RHITick是Thread Safe(线程安全), 所以不需要调用ImmediateFlush或等待事件.
        GDynamicRHI->RHITick(DeltaTime);
    }
};

我们继续看FDynamicRHI的子类定义：

可点击下面图片放大：

需要注意的是，传统图形API（D3D11、OpenGL）除了继承FDynamicRHI，还需要继承IRHICommandContextPSOFallback，因为需要借助后者的接口处理PSO的数据和行为，以保证传统和现代API对PSO的一致处理行为。也正因为此，现代图形API（D3D12、Vulkan、Metal）不需要继承IRHICommandContext的任何继承体系的类型，单单直接继承FDynamicRHI就可以处理RHI层的所有数据和操作。

既然现代图形API（D3D12、Vulkan、Metal）的DynamicRHI没有继承IRHICommandContext的任何继承体系的类型，那么它们是如何实现FDynamicRHI::RHIGetDefaultContext的接口？下面以FD3D12DynamicRHI为例：

IRHICommandContext* FD3D12DynamicRHI::RHIGetDefaultContext()
{
    FD3D12Adapter& Adapter = GetAdapter();

    IRHICommandContext* DefaultCommandContext = nullptr;    
    if (GNumExplicitGPUsForRendering > 1) // 多GPU
    {
        DefaultCommandContext = static_cast<IRHICommandContext*>(&Adapter.GetDefaultContextRedirector());
    }
    else // 单GPU
    {
        FD3D12Device* Device = Adapter.GetDevice(0);
        DefaultCommandContext = static_cast<IRHICommandContext*>(&Device->GetDefaultCommandContext());
    }

    return DefaultCommandContext;
}

无论是单GPU还是多GPU，都是从FD3D12CommandContext强制转换而来，而FD3D12CommandContext又是IRHICommandContext的子子子类，因此静态类型转换完全没问题。

以上显示不同操作系统，OpenGL设备对象的定义有所不同。实际上，OpenGL上下文也因操作系统而异，下面以Windows为例：

    // 窗口句柄
    HWND WindowHandle;
    // 设备上下文.
    HDC DeviceContext;
    // OpenGL上下文.
    HGLRC OpenGLContext;
    
    // 其它实际.
    bool bReleaseWindowOnDestroy;
    int32 SyncInterval;
    GLuint    ViewportFramebuffer;
    GLuint    VertexArrayObject;    // one has to be generated and set for each context (OpenGL 3.2 Core requirements)
    GLuint    BackBufferResource;
    GLenum    BackBufferTarget;
};

以上可知，D3D12涉及的核心类型非常多，涉及多层级的复杂的数据结构链，其内存布局如下所示：

[Engine]--
        |
        |-[RHI]--
                |
                |-[Adapter]-- (LDA)
                |            |
                |            |- [Device]
                |            |
                |            |- [Device]
                |
                |-[Adapter]--
                            |
                            |- [Device]--
                                        |
                                        |-[CommandContext]
                                        |
                                        |-[CommandContext]---
                                                            |
                                                            |-[StateCache]

在这种方案下，FD3D12Device表示1个节点，属于1个物理适配器。这种结构允许一个RHI控制几个不同类型的硬件设置，例如：

• 单GPU系统（常规案例）。
• 多GPU系统，如LDA（Crossfire/SLI）。
• 非对称多GPU系统，如分离、集成GPU协作系统。

将D3D12的核心类抽象成UML图之后，如下所示：

10.4 RHI机制

本章将讲述RHI体系设计的运行机制和原理。

10.4.1 RHI命令执行

10.4.1.1 FRHICommandListExecutor

FRHICommandListExecutor负责将Renderer层的RHI中间指令转译（或直接调用）到目标平台的图形API，它在RHI体系中起着举足轻重的作用，定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

class RHI_API FRHICommandListExecutor
{
public:
    enum
    {
        DefaultBypass = PLATFORM_RHITHREAD_DEFAULT_BYPASS
    };
    FRHICommandListExecutor()
        : bLatchedBypass(!!DefaultBypass)
        , bLatchedUseParallelAlgorithms(false)
    {
    }
    
    // 静态接口, 获取立即命令列表.
    static inline FRHICommandListImmediate& GetImmediateCommandList();
    // 静态接口, 获取立即异步计算命令列表.
    static inline FRHIAsyncComputeCommandListImmediate& GetImmediateAsyncComputeCommandList();

    // 执行命令列表.
    void ExecuteList(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList);
    void ExecuteList(FRHICommandListImmediate& CmdList);
    void LatchBypass();

    // 等待RHI线程栅栏.
    static void WaitOnRHIThreadFence(FGraphEventRef& Fence);

    // 是否绕过命令生成模式, 如果是, 则直接调用目标平台的图形API.
    FORCEINLINE_DEBUGGABLE bool Bypass()
    {
#if CAN_TOGGLE_COMMAND_LIST_BYPASS
        return bLatchedBypass;
#else
        return !!DefaultBypass;
#endif
    }
    // 是否使用并行算法.
    FORCEINLINE_DEBUGGABLE bool UseParallelAlgorithms()
    {
#if CAN_TOGGLE_COMMAND_LIST_BYPASS
        return bLatchedUseParallelAlgorithms;
#else
        return  FApp::ShouldUseThreadingForPerformance() && !Bypass() && (GSupportsParallelRenderingTasksWithSeparateRHIThread || !IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread());
#endif
    }
    static void CheckNoOutstandingCmdLists();
    static bool IsRHIThreadActive();
    static bool IsRHIThreadCompletelyFlushed();

private:
    // 内部执行.
    void ExecuteInner(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList);
    // 内部执行, 真正执行转译.
    static void ExecuteInner_DoExecute(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList);

    bool bLatchedBypass;
    bool bLatchedUseParallelAlgorithms;
    
    // 同步变量.
    FThreadSafeCounter UIDCounter;
    FThreadSafeCounter OutstandingCmdListCount;
    
    // 立即模式的命令队列.
    FRHICommandListImmediate CommandListImmediate;
    // 立即模式的异步计算命令队列.
    FRHIAsyncComputeCommandListImmediate AsyncComputeCmdListImmediate;
};

下面是FRHICommandListExecutor部分重要接口的实现代码：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Private\RHICommandList.cpp

// 检测RHI线程是否激活状态.
bool FRHICommandListExecutor::IsRHIThreadActive()
{
    // 是否异步提交.
    bool bAsyncSubmit = CVarRHICmdAsyncRHIThreadDispatch.GetValueOnRenderThread() > 0;
    // 1. 先检测是否存在未完成的子命令列表提交任务.
    if (bAsyncSubmit)
    {
        if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference() && RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
        {
            RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = nullptr;
        }
        if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference())
        {
            return true; // it might become active at any time
        }
        // otherwise we can safely look at RHIThreadTask
    }

    // 2. 再检测是否存在未完成的RHI线程任务.

    {
        RHIThreadTask = nullptr;
        PrevRHIThreadTask = nullptr;
    }

}

// 检测RHI线程是否完全刷新了数据.

由此可知，FRHICommandListExecutor处理了复杂的各类任务，并且要判定任务的前序、等待、依赖关系，还有各个线程之间的依赖和等待关系。上述代码中涉及到了两个重要的任务类型：

// 派发RHI线程任务.
class FDispatchRHIThreadTask
{
    FRHICommandListBase* RHICmdList; // 待派发的命令列表.
    bool bRHIThread; // 是否在RHI线程中派发.

        : RHICmdList(InRHICmdList)

    {        
    }
    FORCEINLINE TStatId GetStatId() const;
    static ESubsequentsMode::Type GetSubsequentsMode() { return ESubsequentsMode::TrackSubsequents; }

    // 预期的线程由是否在RHI线程/是否在独立的RHI线程等变量决定.
    ENamedThreads::Type GetDesiredThread()
    {
        return bRHIThread ? (IsRunningRHIInDedicatedThread() ? ENamedThreads::RHIThread : CPrio_RHIThreadOnTaskThreads.Get()) : ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
    }
    
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        // 前序任务是RHIThreadTask.
        FGraphEventArray Prereq;
        if (RHIThreadTask.GetReference())
        {
            Prereq.Add(RHIThreadTask);
        }
        // 将当前任务放到PrevRHIThreadTask中.
        PrevRHIThreadTask = RHIThreadTask;
        // 创建FExecuteRHIThreadTask任务并赋值到RHIThreadTask.
        RHIThreadTask = TGraphTask<FExecuteRHIThreadTask>::CreateTask(&Prereq, CurrentThread).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(RHICmdList);
    }
};

// 执行RHI线程任务.
class FExecuteRHIThreadTask
{
    FRHICommandListBase* RHICmdList;

public:
    FExecuteRHIThreadTask(FRHICommandListBase* InRHICmdList)
        : RHICmdList(InRHICmdList)
    {
    }

    FORCEINLINE TStatId GetStatId() const;
    static ESubsequentsMode::Type GetSubsequentsMode() { return ESubsequentsMode::TrackSubsequents; }

    // 根据是否在专用的RHI线程而选择RHI或渲染线程.
    ENamedThreads::Type GetDesiredThread()
    {
        return IsRunningRHIInDedicatedThread() ? ENamedThreads::RHIThread : CPrio_RHIThreadOnTaskThreads.Get();
    }
    
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        // 设置全局变量GRHIThreadId
        if (IsRunningRHIInTaskThread())
        {
            GRHIThreadId = FPlatformTLS::GetCurrentThreadId();
        }
        
        // 执行RHI命令队列.
        {
            // 临界区, 保证线程访问安全.
            FScopeLock Lock(&GRHIThreadOnTasksCritical);
            
            FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner_DoExecute(*RHICmdList);
            delete RHICmdList;
        }
        
        // 清空全局变量GRHIThreadId
        if (IsRunningRHIInTaskThread())
        {
            GRHIThreadId = 0;
        }
    }
};

由上可知，在派发和转译命令队列时，可能在专用的RHI线程执行，也可能在渲染线程或工作线程执行。

10.4.1.2 GRHICommandList

GRHICommandList乍一看以为是FRHICommandListBase的实例，但实际类型是FRHICommandListExecutor。它的声明和实现如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h
extern RHI_API FRHICommandListExecutor GRHICommandList;

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Private\RHICommandList.cpp
RHI_API FRHICommandListExecutor GRHICommandList;

有关GRHICommandList的全局或静态接口如下：

FRHICommandListImmediate& FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList()
{
    return GRHICommandList.CommandListImmediate;
}

FRHIAsyncComputeCommandListImmediate& FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateAsyncComputeCommandList()
{
    return GRHICommandList.AsyncComputeCmdListImmediate;
}

在UE的渲染模块和RHI模块中拥有大量的GRHICommandList使用案例，取其中之一：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\DeferredShadingRenderer.cpp

void ServiceLocalQueue()
{
    FTaskGraphInterface::Get().ProcessThreadUntilIdle(ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local());

    if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList().ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::DispatchToRHIThread);
    }
}

在RHI命令队列模块，除了涉及GRHICommandList，还涉及诸多全局的任务变量：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Private\RHICommandList.cpp

static FGraphEventArray AllOutstandingTasks;
static FGraphEventArray WaitOutstandingTasks;
static FGraphEventRef RHIThreadTask;
static FGraphEventRef PrevRHIThreadTask;
static FGraphEventRef RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask;

它们的创建或添加任务的代码如下：

void FRHICommandListBase::QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit(FGraphEventRef* AnyThreadCompletionEvents, ...)
{
    (......)
    
    if (Num && IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        (......)
            
        // 创建FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList任务.
        FGraphEventRef TranslateSetupCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList>::CreateTask(&Prereq, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(CmdList, &RHICmdLists[0], Num, bIsPrepass);
        QueueCommandListSubmit(CmdList);
        // 添加到AllOutstandingTasks.
        AllOutstandingTasks.Add(TranslateSetupCompletionEvent);
        
        (......)
        
        FGraphEventArray Prereq;
        FRHICommandListBase** RHICmdLists = (FRHICommandListBase**)Alloc(sizeof(FRHICommandListBase*) * (1 + Last - Start), alignof(FRHICommandListBase*));
        // 将所有外部任务AnyThreadCompletionEvents加入到对应的列表中.
        for (int32 Index = Start; Index <= Last; Index++)
        {
            FGraphEventRef& AnyThreadCompletionEvent = AnyThreadCompletionEvents[Index];
            FRHICommandList* CmdList = CmdLists[Index];
            RHICmdLists[Index - Start] = CmdList;
            if (AnyThreadCompletionEvent.GetReference())
            {
                Prereq.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
                AllOutstandingTasks.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
                WaitOutstandingTasks.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
            }
        }
        
        (......)
        
        // 并行转译任务FParallelTranslateCommandList.
        FGraphEventRef TranslateCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FParallelTranslateCommandList>::CreateTask(&Prereq, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(&RHICmdLists[0], 1 + Last - Start, ContextContainer, bIsPrepass);
        AllOutstandingTasks.Add(TranslateCompletionEvent);
        
        (......)
}
    
void FRHICommandListBase::QueueAsyncCommandListSubmit(FGraphEventRef& AnyThreadCompletionEvent, class FRHICommandList* CmdList)
{
    (......)
    
    // 处理外部任务AnyThreadCompletionEvent
    if (AnyThreadCompletionEvent.GetReference())
    {
        if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
        {
            AllOutstandingTasks.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
        }
        WaitOutstandingTasks.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
    }
    
    (......)
}
    
class FDispatchRHIThreadTask
{
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        (......)
        
        // 创建RHI线程任务FExecuteRHIThreadTask.
        PrevRHIThreadTask = RHIThreadTask;
        RHIThreadTask = TGraphTask<FExecuteRHIThreadTask>::CreateTask(&Prereq, CurrentThread).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(RHICmdList);
    }
};
    
class FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList
{
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        (......)

        // 创建并行转译任务FParallelTranslateCommandList.
        FGraphEventRef TranslateCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FParallelTranslateCommandList>::CreateTask(nullptr, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(&RHICmdLists[Start], 1 + Last - Start, ContextContainer, bIsPrepass);
        MyCompletionGraphEvent->DontCompleteUntil(TranslateCompletionEvent);
        // 利用RHICmdList的接口FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubListParallel提交任务, 最终会进入AllOutstandingTasks和WaitOutstandingTasks.
        ALLOC_COMMAND_CL(*RHICmdList, FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubListParallel)(TranslateCompletionEvent, ContextContainer, EffectiveThreads, ThreadIndex++);
    
};
    
void FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList)
{
    (......)
    
    if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        (......)
        
        if (AllOutstandingTasks.Num() || RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference())
        {
            (......)
            // 创建渲染线程子命令派发(提交)任务FDispatchRHIThreadTask.
            RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = TGraphTask<FDispatchRHIThreadTask>::CreateTask(&Prereq, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(SwapCmdList, bAsyncSubmit);
        }
        else
        {
            (......)
            PrevRHIThreadTask = RHIThreadTask;
            // 创建渲染线程子命令转译任务FExecuteRHIThreadTask.
            RHIThreadTask = TGraphTask<FExecuteRHIThreadTask>::CreateTask(&Prereq, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(SwapCmdList);
        }
        
        (......)
}

总结一下这些任务变量的作用：

任务变量	执行线程	描述
AllOutstandingTasks	渲染、RHI、工作	所有在处理或待处理的任务列表。类型是FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList、FParallelTranslateCommandList。

RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask	渲染、RHI、工作	正在派发（提交）的任务。类型是FDispatchRHIThreadTask。

10.4.1.3 D3D11命令执行

本节将研究UE4.26在PC平台的通用RHI及D3D11命令运行过程和机制。由于UE4.26在PC平台默认的RHI是D3D11，并且关键的几个控制台变量的默认值如下：

也就是说开启了命令跳过模式，并且禁用了RHI线程。在此情况下，FRHICommandList的某个接口被调用时，不会生成单独的FRHICommand，而是直接调用Context的方法。以FRHICommandList::DrawPrimitive为例：

class RHI_API FRHICommandList : public FRHIComputeCommandList
{
    void DrawPrimitive(uint32 BaseVertexIndex, uint32 NumPrimitives, uint32 NumInstances)
    {
        // 默认情况下Bypass为1, 进入此分支.
        if (Bypass())
        {
            // 直接调用图形API的上下文的对应方法.
            GetContext().RHIDrawPrimitive(BaseVertexIndex, NumPrimitives, NumInstances);
            return;
        }
        
        // 分配单独的FRHICommandDrawPrimitive命令.
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandDrawPrimitive)(BaseVertexIndex, NumPrimitives, NumInstances);
    }
}

因此，在PC的默认图形API（D3D11）下，r.RHICmdBypass1且r.RHIThread.Enable0，FRHICommandList将直接调用图形API的上下文的接口，相当于同步调用图形API，此时的图形API运行于渲染线程（如果开启）。

接着将r.RHICmdBypass设为0，但保持r.RHIThread.Enable为0，此时不再直接调用Context的方法，而是通过生成一条条单独的FRHICommand，然后由FRHICommandList相关的对象执行。还是以FRHICommandList::DrawPrimitive为例，调用堆栈如下所示：

class RHI_API FRHICommandList : public FRHIComputeCommandList
{
    void FRHICommandList::DrawPrimitive(uint32 BaseVertexIndex, uint32 NumPrimitives, uint32 NumInstances)
    {
        // 默认情况下Bypass为1, 进入此分支.
        if (Bypass())
        {
            // 直接调用图形API的上下文的对应方法.
            GetContext().RHIDrawPrimitive(BaseVertexIndex, NumPrimitives, NumInstances);
            return;
        }
        
        // 分配单独的FRHICommandDrawPrimitive命令.
        // ALLOC_COMMAND宏会调用AllocCommand接口.
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandDrawPrimitive)(BaseVertexIndex, NumPrimitives, NumInstances);
    }
    
    template <typename TCmd>
    void* AllocCommand()
    {
        return AllocCommand(sizeof(TCmd), alignof(TCmd));
    }
    
    void* AllocCommand(int32 AllocSize, int32 Alignment)
    {
        FRHICommandBase* Result = (FRHICommandBase*) MemManager.Alloc(AllocSize, Alignment);
        ++NumCommands;
        // CommandLink指向了上一个命令节点的Next.
        *CommandLink = Result;
        // 将CommandLink赋值为当前节点的Next.
        CommandLink = &Result->Next;
        return Result;
    }
}

利用ALLOC_COMMAND分配的命令实例会进入FRHICommandListBase的命令链表，但此时并未执行，而是等待其它合适的时机执行，例如在FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush。下面是执行FRHICommandList的调用堆栈：

由调用堆栈可以得知，在此情况下，命令执行的过程变得复杂起来，多了很多中间执行步骤。还是以FRHICommandList::DrawPrimitive为例，调用流程示意图如下：

graph TD A[FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush] --> B[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteList] B --> C[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner] C --> D[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner_DoExecute] D --> E[FRHICommand::ExecuteAndDestruct] E --> F[FRHICommandDrawPrimitive::Execute] F --> G[INTERNAL_DECORATOR] G --> H[FD3D11DynamicRHI::RHIDrawPrimitive]

上图的使用了宏INTERNAL_DECORATOR，其和相关宏的定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandListCommandExecutes.inl

#define INTERNAL_DECORATOR(Method) CmdList.GetContext().Method
#define INTERNAL_DECORATOR_COMPUTE(Method) CmdList.GetComputeContext().Method

相当于通过宏来调用CommandList的Context接口。

在RHI禁用（r.RHIThread.Enable==0）情况下，以上的调用在渲染线程执行：

接下来将r.RHIThread.Enable设为1，以开启RHI线程。此时运行命令的线程变成了RHI：

并且调用堆栈是从TaskGraph的RHI线程发起任务：

此时，命令执行的流程图如下：

graph TD A[FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush] --> B[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteList] B --> C[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner] C --> C1(FExecuteRHIThreadTask::DoTask) C1 --> D(FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner_DoExecute) D --> E(FRHICommand::ExecuteAndDestruct) E --> F(FRHICommandDrawPrimitive::Execute) F --> G(INTERNAL_DECORATOR) G --> H(FD3D11DynamicRHI::RHIDrawPrimitive)

上面流程图中，方角表示在渲染线程执行，而圆角在RHI线程执行。开启RHI线程后，将出现它的统计数据：

左：未开启RHI线程的统计数据；右：开启RHI线程后的统计数据。

下面绘制出开启或关闭Bypass和RHI线程的流程图（以调用D3D11的DrawPrimitive为例）：

graph TD a1[FRHICommandList::DrawPrimitive] --> a2{Bypass?} a2 -->|No| a4[ALLOC_COMMAND_FRHICommandDrawPrimitive] a2 -->|Yes| a3[FD3D11DynamicRHI::RHIDrawPrimitive] a4 --> a5[FRHICommandListBase::AllocCommand] a5 --> a6[......] a6 --> A[FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush] A --> B[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteList] B --> C[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner] C --> C11{RHIThreadEnabled?} C11 -->|No| D11[FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner_DoExecute] D11 --> E11[FRHICommand::ExecuteAndDestruct] E11 --> F11[FRHICommandDrawPrimitive::Execute] F11 --> G11[INTERNAL_DECORATOR_RHIDrawPrimitive] G11 --> H11[FD3D11DynamicRHI::RHIDrawPrimitive] C11 -->|Yes| c0(.....) c0 -->C1(FExecuteRHIThreadTask::DoTask) C1 --> D(FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner_DoExecute) D --> E(FRHICommand::ExecuteAndDestruct) E --> F(FRHICommandDrawPrimitive::Execute) F --> G(INTERNAL_DECORATOR_RHIDrawPrimitive) G --> H(FD3D11DynamicRHI::RHIDrawPrimitive)

上面流程图中，方角表示在渲染线程中执行，圆角表示在RHI线程中执行。

10.4.2 ImmediateFlush

在章节10.3.3 FDynamicRHI中，提及了刷新类型（FlushType），是指EImmediateFlushType定义的类型：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

namespace EImmediateFlushType
{
    enum Type
    { 
        WaitForOutstandingTasksOnly = 0, // 等待仅正在处理的任务完成.
        DispatchToRHIThread,             // 派发到RHI线程.
        WaitForDispatchToRHIThread,      // 等待派发到RHI线程.
        FlushRHIThread,                  // 刷新RHI线程.
        FlushRHIThreadFlushResources,    // 刷新RHI线程和资源
        FlushRHIThreadFlushResourcesFlushDeferredDeletes // 刷新RHI线程/资源和延迟删除.
    };
};

EImmediateFlushType中各个值的区别在FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush的实现代码中体现出来：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.inl

void FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::Type FlushType)
{
    switch (FlushType)
    {
    // 等待任务完成.
    case EImmediateFlushType::WaitForOutstandingTasksOnly:
        {
            WaitForTasks();
        }
        break;
    // 派发RHI线程(执行命令队列)
    case EImmediateFlushType::DispatchToRHIThread:
        {
            if (HasCommands())
            {
                GRHICommandList.ExecuteList(*this);
            }
        }
        break;
    // 等待RHI线程派发.
    case EImmediateFlushType::WaitForDispatchToRHIThread:
        {
            if (HasCommands())
            {
                GRHICommandList.ExecuteList(*this);
            }
            WaitForDispatch();
        }
        break;
    // 刷新RHI线程.
    case EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThread:
        {
            // 派发并等待RHI线程.
            if (HasCommands())
            {
                GRHICommandList.ExecuteList(*this);
            }
            WaitForDispatch();
            
            // 等待RHI线程任务.
            if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
            {
                WaitForRHIThreadTasks();
            }
            
            // 重置正在处理的任务列表.
            WaitForTasks(true);
        }
        break;
    case EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResources:
    case EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResourcesFlushDeferredDeletes:
        {
            if (HasCommands())
            {
                GRHICommandList.ExecuteList(*this);
            }
            WaitForDispatch();
            WaitForRHIThreadTasks();
            WaitForTasks(true);
            
            // 刷新管线状态缓存的资源.
            PipelineStateCache::FlushResources();
            // 刷新将要删除的资源.
            FRHIResource::FlushPendingDeletes(FlushType == EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResourcesFlushDeferredDeletes);
        }
        break;
    }
}

上面代码中涉及到了若干种处理和等待任务的接口，它们的实现如下：

// 等待任务完成.
void FRHICommandListBase::WaitForTasks(bool bKnownToBeComplete)
{
    if (WaitOutstandingTasks.Num())
    {
        // 检测是否存在未完成的等待任务.
        bool bAny = false;
        for (int32 Index = 0; Index < WaitOutstandingTasks.Num(); Index++)
        {
            if (!WaitOutstandingTasks[Index]->IsComplete())
            {
                bAny = true;
                break;
            }
        }
        // 存在就利用TaskGraph的接口开启线程等待.
        if (bAny)
        {
            ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread_Local = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
            FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTasksComplete(WaitOutstandingTasks, RenderThread_Local);
        }
        // 重置等待任务列表.
        WaitOutstandingTasks.Reset();
    }
}

// 等待渲染线程派发完成.
void FRHICommandListBase::WaitForDispatch()
{
    // 如果RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask已完成, 则置空.
    if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference() && RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
    {
        RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = nullptr;
    }
    
    // RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask有未完成的任务.
    while (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference())
    {
        ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread_Local = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
        FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTaskCompletes(RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask, RenderThread_Local);
        if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference() && RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
        {
            RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = nullptr;
        }
    }
}

// 等待RHI线程任务完成.
void FRHICommandListBase::WaitForRHIThreadTasks()
{
    bool bAsyncSubmit = CVarRHICmdAsyncRHIThreadDispatch.GetValueOnRenderThread() > 0;
    ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread_Local = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
    
    // 相当于执行FRHICommandListBase::WaitForDispatch()
    if (bAsyncSubmit)
    {
        if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference() && RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
        {
            RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = nullptr;
        }
        while (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference())
        {
            if (FTaskGraphInterface::Get().IsThreadProcessingTasks(RenderThread_Local))
            {
                while (!RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
                {
                    FPlatformProcess::SleepNoStats(0);
                }
            }
            else
            {
                FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTaskCompletes(RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask, RenderThread_Local);
            }
            
            if (RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask.GetReference() && RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask->IsComplete())
            {
                RenderThreadSublistDispatchTask = nullptr;
            }
        }
        // now we can safely look at RHIThreadTask
    }
    
    // 如果RHI线程任务已完成, 则置空任务.
    if (RHIThreadTask.GetReference() && RHIThreadTask->IsComplete())
    {
        RHIThreadTask = nullptr;
        PrevRHIThreadTask = nullptr;
    }
    
    // 如果RHI线程有任务未完成, 则执行并等待.
    while (RHIThreadTask.GetReference())
    {
        // 如果已在处理, 则用sleep(0)跳过此时间片.
        if (FTaskGraphInterface::Get().IsThreadProcessingTasks(RenderThread_Local))
        {
            while (!RHIThreadTask->IsComplete())
            {

            }
        }
        // 任务尚未处理, 开始并等待之.
        else
        {
            FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTaskCompletes(RHIThreadTask, RenderThread_Local);
        }
        
        // 如果RHI线程任务已完成, 则置空任务.
        if (RHIThreadTask.GetReference() && RHIThreadTask->IsComplete())
        {

10.4.3 并行渲染

本篇开头也提到了在开启RHI线程的情况下，RHI线程负责将渲染线程Push进来的RHI中间指令转译到对应图形平台的GPU指令。如果渲染线程是并行生成的RHI中间指令，那么RHI线程也会并行转译。

在正式阐述并行渲染和转译之前，需要先了解一些基础概念和类型。

10.4.3.1 FParallelCommandListSet

FParallelCommandListSet的定义如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\SceneRendering.h

class FParallelCommandListSet
{
public:
    // 所属的视图.
    const FViewInfo& View;
    // 父命令队列.
    FRHICommandListImmediate& ParentCmdList;
    // 场景RT快照.
    FSceneRenderTargets* Snapshot;
    
    TStatId    ExecuteStat;
    int32 Width;
    int32 NumAlloc;
    int32 MinDrawsPerCommandList;
    // 是否平衡命令队列, 见r.RHICmdBalanceParallelLists
    bool bBalanceCommands;
    // see r.RHICmdSpewParallelListBalance
    bool bSpewBalance;
    
    // 命令队列列表.
    TArray<FRHICommandList*,SceneRenderingAllocator> CommandLists;
    // 同步事件.
    TArray<FGraphEventRef,SceneRenderingAllocator> Events;
    // 命令队列的绘制次数, 若是-1则未知. 高估总比没有好.
    TArray<int32,SceneRenderingAllocator> NumDrawsIfKnown;
    
    FParallelCommandListSet(TStatId InExecuteStat, const FViewInfo& InView, FRHICommandListImmediate& InParentCmdList, bool bInCreateSceneContext);
    virtual ~FParallelCommandListSet();

    // 获取数量.
    int32 NumParallelCommandLists() const;
    // 新建一个并行的命令队列.
    FRHICommandList* NewParallelCommandList();
    // 获取前序任务.
    FORCEINLINE FGraphEventArray* GetPrereqs();
    // 增加并行的命令队列.
    void AddParallelCommandList(FRHICommandList* CmdList, FGraphEventRef& CompletionEvent, int32 InNumDrawsIfKnown = -1);    
    virtual void SetStateOnCommandList(FRHICommandList& CmdList) {}
    // 等待任务完成.
    static void WaitForTasks();
    
protected:
    // 派发, 须由子类调用.
    void Dispatch(bool bHighPriority = false);
    // 分配新的命令队列.
    FRHICommandList* AllocCommandList();
    // 是否创建场景上下文.
    bool bCreateSceneContext;
    
private:
    void WaitForTasksInternal();
};

下面是FParallelCommandListSet的重要接口的实现代码：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\SceneRendering.cpp

FRHICommandList* FParallelCommandListSet::AllocCommandList()
{
    NumAlloc++;
    return new FRHICommandList(ParentCmdList.GetGPUMask());
}

void FParallelCommandListSet::Dispatch(bool bHighPriority)
{
    ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread_Local = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
    if (bSpewBalance)
    {
        // 等待之前的任务完成.
        for (auto& Event : Events)
        {
            FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTaskCompletes(Event, RenderThread_Local);
        }
    }
    
    // 是否并行转译.
    bool bActuallyDoParallelTranslate = GRHISupportsParallelRHIExecute && CommandLists.Num() >= CVarRHICmdMinCmdlistForParallelSubmit.GetValueOnRenderThread();
    if (bActuallyDoParallelTranslate)
    {
        int32 Total = 0;
        bool bIndeterminate = false;
        for (int32 Count : NumDrawsIfKnown)
        {
            // 不能确定这里面有多少, 假设应该进行平行转译.
            if (Count < 0)
            {
                bIndeterminate = true;
                break; 
            }
            Total += Count;
        }
        
        // 命令队列数量太少, 不并行转译.
        if (!bIndeterminate && Total < MinDrawsPerCommandList)
        {
            bActuallyDoParallelTranslate = false;
        }
    }

    if (bActuallyDoParallelTranslate)
    {
        // 确保支持并行的RHI执行.
        check(GRHISupportsParallelRHIExecute);
        NumAlloc -= CommandLists.Num();
        
        // 用父命令队列入队并行异步命令队列提交.
        ParentCmdList.QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit(&Events[0], bHighPriority, &CommandLists[0], &NumDrawsIfKnown[0], CommandLists.Num(), (MinDrawsPerCommandList * 4) / 3, bSpewBalance);
        SetStateOnCommandList(ParentCmdList);
        // 结束Pass渲染.
        ParentCmdList.EndRenderPass();
    }
    else // 非并行模式.
    {
        for (int32 Index = 0; Index < CommandLists.Num(); Index++)
        {
            ParentCmdList.QueueAsyncCommandListSubmit(Events[Index], CommandLists[Index]);
            NumAlloc--;
        }
    }
    
    // 重置数据.
    CommandLists.Reset();
    Snapshot = nullptr;
    Events.Reset();
    
    // 等待渲染线程处理完成.
    FTaskGraphInterface::Get().ProcessThreadUntilIdle(RenderThread_Local);
}

FParallelCommandListSet::~FParallelCommandListSet()
{
    GOutstandingParallelCommandListSet = nullptr;
}

FRHICommandList* FParallelCommandListSet::NewParallelCommandList()
{
    // 新建一个命令队列.
    FRHICommandList* Result = AllocCommandList();
    Result->ExecuteStat = ExecuteStat;
    SetStateOnCommandList(*Result);
    if (bCreateSceneContext)
    {
        FSceneRenderTargets& SceneContext = FSceneRenderTargets::Get(ParentCmdList);
        // 创建场景RT快照.
        if (!Snapshot)
        {
            Snapshot = SceneContext.CreateSnapshot(View);
        }
        // 将RT快照设置到命令队列上.
        Snapshot->SetSnapshotOnCmdList(*Result);
    }
    return Result;
}

// 增加并行命令队列.
void FParallelCommandListSet::AddParallelCommandList(FRHICommandList* CmdList, FGraphEventRef& CompletionEvent, int32 InNumDrawsIfKnown)
{
    // 增加命令队列.
    CommandLists.Add(CmdList);
    // 增加等待事件.
    Events.Add(CompletionEvent);
    // 增加数量.
    NumDrawsIfKnown.Add(InNumDrawsIfKnown);
}

void FParallelCommandListSet::WaitForTasks()
{
    if (GOutstandingParallelCommandListSet)
    {
        GOutstandingParallelCommandListSet->WaitForTasksInternal();
    }
}

void FParallelCommandListSet::WaitForTasksInternal()
{
    // 收集等待处理的事件.
    FGraphEventArray WaitOutstandingTasks;
    for (int32 Index = 0; Index < Events.Num(); Index++)
    {
        if (!Events[Index]->IsComplete())
        {
            WaitOutstandingTasks.Add(Events[Index]);
        }
    }
    
    // 如果有正在处理的任务, 则等待其完成.
    if (WaitOutstandingTasks.Num())
    {
        ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread_Local = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread_Local();
        FTaskGraphInterface::Get().WaitUntilTasksComplete(WaitOutstandingTasks, RenderThread_Local);
    }
}

FParallelCommandListSet拥有以下子类，以满足不同Pass或场合的并行渲染逻辑：

• FAnisotropyPassParallelCommandListSet：各项异性Pass的并行渲染命令队列集合。
• FPrePassParallelCommandListSet：提前深度Pass的并行渲染命令队列集合。
• FShadowParallelCommandListSet：阴影渲染的并行渲染命令队列集合。
• FRDGParallelCommandListSet：RDG系统的并行渲染命令队列集合。

下面以FPrePassParallelCommandListSet和FShadowParallelCommandListSet为剖析对象：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\DepthRendering.cpp

class FPrePassParallelCommandListSet : public FParallelCommandListSet
{
public:
    FPrePassParallelCommandListSet(FRHICommandListImmediate& InParentCmdList, const FSceneRenderer& InSceneRenderer, const FViewInfo& InView, bool bInCreateSceneContext)
        : FParallelCommandListSet(GET_STATID(STAT_CLP_Prepass), InView, InParentCmdList, bInCreateSceneContext)
        , SceneRenderer(InSceneRenderer)
    {
    }

    virtual ~FPrePassParallelCommandListSet()
    {
        // 在析构函数内派发命令列表.
        Dispatch(true);
    }

    // 在命令列表上设置状态.
    virtual void SetStateOnCommandList(FRHICommandList& CmdList) override
    {
        FParallelCommandListSet::SetStateOnCommandList(CmdList);
        FSceneRenderTargets::Get(CmdList).BeginRenderingPrePass(CmdList, false);
        SetupPrePassView(CmdList, View, &SceneRenderer);
    }

private:
    const FSceneRenderer& SceneRenderer;
};

class FShadowParallelCommandListSet : public FParallelCommandListSet
{
public:
    FShadowParallelCommandListSet(
        FRHICommandListImmediate& InParentCmdList,
        const FViewInfo& InView,
        bool bInCreateSceneContext,
        FProjectedShadowInfo& InProjectedShadowInfo,
        FBeginShadowRenderPassFunction InBeginShadowRenderPass)
        : FParallelCommandListSet(GET_STATID(STAT_CLP_Shadow), InView, InParentCmdList, bInCreateSceneContext)
        , ProjectedShadowInfo(InProjectedShadowInfo)
        , BeginShadowRenderPass(InBeginShadowRenderPass)
    {
        bBalanceCommands = false;
    }

    virtual ~FShadowParallelCommandListSet()
    {
        // 在析构函数内派发命令列表.
        Dispatch();
    }

    virtual void SetStateOnCommandList(FRHICommandList& CmdList) override
    {
        FParallelCommandListSet::SetStateOnCommandList(CmdList);
        BeginShadowRenderPass(CmdList, false);
        ProjectedShadowInfo.SetStateForView(CmdList);
    }

private:
    // 投射阴影信息.
    FProjectedShadowInfo& ProjectedShadowInfo;
    // 开始阴影渲染pass函数.
    FBeginShadowRenderPassFunction BeginShadowRenderPass;
    // 阴影深度渲染模式.
    EShadowDepthRenderMode RenderMode;
};

使用以上的逻辑比较简单，以PrePass为例：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\DepthRendering.cpp

bool FDeferredShadingSceneRenderer::RenderPrePassViewParallel(const FViewInfo& View, FRHICommandListImmediate& ParentCmdList, TFunctionRef<void()> AfterTasksAreStarted, bool bDoPrePre)
{
    bool bDepthWasCleared = false;

    {
        // 构造FPrePassParallelCommandListSet实例.
        FPrePassParallelCommandListSet ParallelCommandListSet(ParentCmdList, *this, View,
            CVarRHICmdFlushRenderThreadTasksPrePass.GetValueOnRenderThread() == 0 && CVarRHICmdFlushRenderThreadTasks.GetValueOnRenderThread() == 0);

        // 调用FParallelMeshDrawCommandPass::DispatchDraw.
        View.ParallelMeshDrawCommandPasses[EMeshPass::DepthPass].DispatchDraw(&ParallelCommandListSet, ParentCmdList);

        if (bDoPrePre)
        {
            bDepthWasCleared = PreRenderPrePass(ParentCmdList);
        }
    }

    if (bDoPrePre)
    {
        AfterTasksAreStarted();
    }

    return bDepthWasCleared;
}

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\MeshDrawCommands.cpp

void FParallelMeshDrawCommandPass::DispatchDraw(FParallelCommandListSet* ParallelCommandListSet, FRHICommandList& RHICmdList) const
{
    if (MaxNumDraws <= 0)
    {
        return;
    }

    FRHIVertexBuffer* PrimitiveIdsBuffer = PrimitiveIdVertexBufferPoolEntry.BufferRHI;
    const int32 BasePrimitiveIdsOffset = 0;

    // 并行模式.
    if (ParallelCommandListSet)
    {
        if (TaskContext.bUseGPUScene)
        {
            // 在完成FMeshDrawCommandPassSetupTask后，RHI线程将上传PrimitiveIdVertexBuffer命令.
            FRHICommandListImmediate &RHICommandList = GetImmediateCommandList_ForRenderCommand();

            if (TaskEventRef.IsValid())
            {
                RHICommandList.AddDispatchPrerequisite(TaskEventRef);
            }

            RHICommandList.EnqueueLambda([
                VertexBuffer = PrimitiveIdsBuffer,
                VertexBufferData = TaskContext.PrimitiveIdBufferData, 
                VertexBufferDataSize = TaskContext.PrimitiveIdBufferDataSize,
                PrimitiveIdVertexBufferPoolEntry = PrimitiveIdVertexBufferPoolEntry](FRHICommandListImmediate& CmdList)
            {
                // Upload vertex buffer data.
                void* RESTRICT Data = (void* RESTRICT)CmdList.LockVertexBuffer(VertexBuffer, 0, VertexBufferDataSize, RLM_WriteOnly);
                FMemory::Memcpy(Data, VertexBufferData, VertexBufferDataSize);
                CmdList.UnlockVertexBuffer(VertexBuffer);

                FMemory::Free(VertexBufferData);
            });

            RHICommandList.RHIThreadFence(true);

            bPrimitiveIdBufferDataOwnedByRHIThread = true;
        }

        const ENamedThreads::Type RenderThread = ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread();

        // 处理前序任务
        FGraphEventArray Prereqs;
        if (ParallelCommandListSet->GetPrereqs())
        {
            Prereqs.Append(*ParallelCommandListSet->GetPrereqs());
        }
        if (TaskEventRef.IsValid())
        {
            Prereqs.Add(TaskEventRef);
        }

        // 基于NumEstimatedDraws将工作平均分配给可用的task graph工作线程.  
        // 每个任务将根据FVisibleMeshDrawCommandProcessTask结果调整它的工作范围.
        const int32 NumThreads = FMath::Min<int32>(FTaskGraphInterface::Get().GetNumWorkerThreads(), ParallelCommandListSet->Width);
        const int32 NumTasks = FMath::Min<int32>(NumThreads, FMath::DivideAndRoundUp(MaxNumDraws, ParallelCommandListSet->MinDrawsPerCommandList));
        const int32 NumDrawsPerTask = FMath::DivideAndRoundUp(MaxNumDraws, NumTasks);

        // 建立NumTasks个FRHICommandList, 添加到ParallelCommandListSet.
        for (int32 TaskIndex = 0; TaskIndex < NumTasks; TaskIndex++)
        {
            const int32 StartIndex = TaskIndex * NumDrawsPerTask;
            const int32 NumDraws = FMath::Min(NumDrawsPerTask, MaxNumDraws - StartIndex);
            checkSlow(NumDraws > 0);

            // 新建命令队列.
            FRHICommandList* CmdList = ParallelCommandListSet->NewParallelCommandList();

            // 创建任务FDrawVisibleMeshCommandsAnyThreadTask, 获得事件对象.
            FGraphEventRef AnyThreadCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FDrawVisibleMeshCommandsAnyThreadTask>::CreateTask(&Prereqs, RenderThread)
                .ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(*CmdList, TaskContext.MeshDrawCommands, TaskContext.MinimalPipelineStatePassSet, PrimitiveIdsBuffer, BasePrimitiveIdsOffset, TaskContext.bDynamicInstancing, TaskContext.InstanceFactor, TaskIndex, NumTasks);
            // 添加命令/事件等数据到ParallelCommandListSet.
            ParallelCommandListSet->AddParallelCommandList(CmdList, AnyThreadCompletionEvent, NumDraws);
        }
    }
    else // 非并行模式.
    {
        (......)
    }
}

以上可以知道，FParallelMeshDrawCommandPass::DispatchDraw调用之后，创建若干个FRHICommandList、FDrawVisibleMeshCommandsAnyThreadTask任务和任务同步事件，然后将它们全部加入到ParallelCommandListSet的列表中。这样，当ParallelCommandListSet被析构时，就可以真正地派发命令队列。

10.4.3.2 QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit

上一小节调用FParallelCommandListSet::Dispatch之后，会进入FRHICommandListBase::QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit的接口：

void FRHICommandListBase::QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit(FGraphEventRef* AnyThreadCompletionEvents, bool bIsPrepass, FRHICommandList** CmdLists, int32* NumDrawsIfKnown, int32 Num, int32 MinDrawsPerTranslate, bool bSpewMerge)
{
    if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        // 在提交并行构建的子列表之前，执行立即命令列表上排队的所有命令.
        FRHICommandListImmediate& ImmediateCommandList = FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList();
        ImmediateCommandList.ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::DispatchToRHIThread);
        
        // 清空栅栏.
        if (RHIThreadBufferLockFence.GetReference() && RHIThreadBufferLockFence->IsComplete())
        {
            RHIThreadBufferLockFence = nullptr;
        }
    }
    
#if !UE_BUILD_SHIPPING
    // 处理前先刷新命令，这样就能知道这个平行集打碎了什么东西，或是之前有什么东西.
    if (CVarRHICmdFlushOnQueueParallelSubmit.GetValueOnRenderThread())
    {
        CSV_SCOPED_TIMING_STAT(RHITFlushes, QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit);
        FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList().ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThread);
    }
#endif

    // 确保开启了RHI线程.
    if (Num && IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        static const auto ICVarRHICmdBalanceParallelLists = IConsoleManager::Get().FindTConsoleVariableDataInt(TEXT("r.RHICmdBalanceParallelLists"));

        // r.RHICmdBalanceParallelLists==0 且 GRHISupportsParallelRHIExecute==true 且 使用延迟上下文.
        // 不平衡命令队列提交模式.
        if (ICVarRHICmdBalanceParallelLists->GetValueOnRenderThread() == 0 && CVarRHICmdBalanceTranslatesAfterTasks.GetValueOnRenderThread() > 0 && GRHISupportsParallelRHIExecute && CVarRHICmdUseDeferredContexts.GetValueOnAnyThread() > 0)
        {
            // 处理前序任务.
            FGraphEventArray Prereq;
            FRHICommandListBase** RHICmdLists = (FRHICommandListBase**)Alloc(sizeof(FRHICommandListBase*) * Num, alignof(FRHICommandListBase*));
            for (int32 Index = 0; Index < Num; Index++)
            {

                FRHICommandList* CmdList = CmdLists[Index];
                RHICmdLists[Index] = CmdList;
                if (AnyThreadCompletionEvent.GetReference())
                {

                    WaitOutstandingTasks.Add(AnyThreadCompletionEvent);
                }
            }

            {

            }
            
            // 新建FRHICommandList.

            CmdList->CopyRenderThreadContexts(*this);
            // 创建设置转译任务(FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList).
            FGraphEventRef TranslateSetupCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList>::CreateTask(&Prereq, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(CmdList, &RHICmdLists[0], Num, bIsPrepass);
            // 入队命令队列提交.
            QueueCommandListSubmit(CmdList);
            // 添加设置转译事件到列表.
            AllOutstandingTasks.Add(TranslateSetupCompletionEvent);
            // 避免在异步命令列表之后的东西被绑定到它.
            if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())

                    {
                        Last++;
                        DrawCnt += NumDrawsIfKnown[Last];
                    }
                }
                check(Last >= Start);
                Start = Last + 1;
                EffectiveThreads++;
            }

            Start = 0;
            ContextContainer = RHIGetCommandContextContainer(ThreadIndex, EffectiveThreads, GetGPUMask());
        }
        
        if (ContextContainer)
        {
            // 又一次合并操作.
            while (Start < Num)
            {
                int32 Last = Start;
                int32 DrawCnt = NumDrawsIfKnown[Start];
                int32 TotalMem = bSpewMerge ? CmdLists[Start]->GetUsedMemory() : 0; 

                if (bMerge && DrawCnt >= 0)
                {
                    while (Last < Num - 1 && NumDrawsIfKnown[Last + 1] >= 0 && DrawCnt + NumDrawsIfKnown[Last + 1] <= MinDrawsPerTranslate)
                    {
                        Last++;
                        DrawCnt += NumDrawsIfKnown[Last];
                        TotalMem += bSpewMerge ? CmdLists[Start]->GetUsedMemory() : 0;
                    }
                }

            // 后面的逻辑和非平衡模式比较相似, 省略.
            
            (......)
                
            return;
        }
    }
    
    // 非并行模式.
    (......)
}

以上可知，开启并行命令队列提交需要满足以下条件：

• 开启了RHI线程，即IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread()为true。
• 当前使用的图形API支持并行执行，即GRHISupportsParallelRHIExecute要为true。
• 开启了延迟上下文，即CVarRHICmdUseDeferredContexts不为0。

无论是哪个图形API，都需要指定一个主CommandList（即ParentCommandList），以便调用它的QueueParallelAsyncCommandListSubmit提交设置命令队列的任务。上面提交到RHI线程的任务对象是FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList，由下一小节阐述。

10.4.3.3 FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList

FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList用于建立并行（或串行）提交子命令队列的任务，定义如下：

class FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList
{
    // 用于提交子命令列表的父命令列表.
    FRHICommandList* RHICmdList;
    // 待提交的子命令队列列表.
    FRHICommandListBase** RHICmdLists;
    
    int32 NumCommandLists;
    bool bIsPrepass;
    int32 MinSize;
    int32 MinCount;
    
public:
    FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList(FRHICommandList* InRHICmdList, FRHICommandListBase** InRHICmdLists, int32 InNumCommandLists, bool bInIsPrepass)
        : RHICmdList(InRHICmdList)
        , RHICmdLists(InRHICmdLists)
        , NumCommandLists(InNumCommandLists)
        , bIsPrepass(bInIsPrepass)
    {
        // 单个子命令队列的最小尺寸.
        MinSize = CVarRHICmdMinCmdlistSizeForParallelTranslate.GetValueOnRenderThread() * 1024;
        MinCount = CVarRHICmdMinCmdlistForParallelTranslate.GetValueOnRenderThread();
    }

    static FORCEINLINE TStatId GetStatId();
    // 预期的线程.
    static FORCEINLINE ENamedThreads::Type GetDesiredThread()
    {
        return CPrio_FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList.Get();
    }
    static FORCEINLINE ESubsequentsMode::Type GetSubsequentsMode() { return ESubsequentsMode::TrackSubsequents; }

    // 执行设置任务.
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        TArray<int32, TInlineAllocator<64> > Sizes;
        Sizes.Reserve(NumCommandLists);
        for (int32 Index = 0; Index < NumCommandLists; Index++)
        {
            Sizes.Add(RHICmdLists[Index]->GetUsedMemory());
        }

        int32 EffectiveThreads = 0;
        int32 Start = 0;
        // 合并绘制指令, 计算所需的线程数量.
        while (Start < NumCommandLists)
        {
            int32 Last = Start;
            int32 DrawCnt = Sizes[Start];

            while (Last < NumCommandLists - 1 && DrawCnt + Sizes[Last + 1] <= MinSize)
            {
                Last++;
                DrawCnt += Sizes[Last];
            }
            check(Last >= Start);
            Start = Last + 1;
            EffectiveThreads++;
        } 

        // 如果需要的线程数量太少, 则串行提交子命令队列.
        if (EffectiveThreads < MinCount)
        {
            FGraphEventRef Nothing;
            for (int32 Index = 0; Index < NumCommandLists; Index++)
            {
                FRHICommandListBase* CmdList = RHICmdLists[Index];
                // 使用了ALLOC_COMMAND_CL分配子命令队列提交接口.
                ALLOC_COMMAND_CL(*RHICmdList, FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubList)(Nothing, CmdList);
#if WITH_MGPU
                ALLOC_COMMAND_CL(*RHICmdList, FRHICommandSetGPUMask)(RHICmdList->GetGPUMask());
#endif
            }
        }
        // 并行提交.
        else
        {
            Start = 0;
            int32 ThreadIndex = 0;

            // 合并数量太少的命令队列.
            while (Start < NumCommandLists)
            {
                int32 Last = Start;
                int32 DrawCnt = Sizes[Start];

                while (Last < NumCommandLists - 1 && DrawCnt + Sizes[Last + 1] <= MinSize)
                {
                    Last++;
                    DrawCnt += Sizes[Last];
                }

                // 获取ContextContainer
                IRHICommandContextContainer* ContextContainer =  RHIGetCommandContextContainer(ThreadIndex, EffectiveThreads, RHICmdList->GetGPUMask());

                // 创建并行转译任务FParallelTranslateCommandList.
                FGraphEventRef TranslateCompletionEvent = TGraphTask<FParallelTranslateCommandList>::CreateTask(nullptr, ENamedThreads::GetRenderThread()).ConstructAndDispatchWhenReady(&RHICmdLists[Start], 1 + Last - Start, ContextContainer, bIsPrepass);
                // 此任务结束前须确保转译任务完成.
                MyCompletionGraphEvent->DontCompleteUntil(TranslateCompletionEvent);
                // 调用RHICmdList的FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubListParallel接口.
                ALLOC_COMMAND_CL(*RHICmdList, FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubListParallel)(TranslateCompletionEvent, ContextContainer, EffectiveThreads, ThreadIndex++);
                Start = Last + 1;
            }
            check(EffectiveThreads == ThreadIndex);
        }
    }
};

以上代码中，可以补充几点：

• 如果命令数量太少，所需的线程数量过少，直接使用串行转译接口FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubList。

• 并行逻辑分支中，RHIGetCommandContextContainer从具体的RHI子类中获取上下文容器，只在D3D12、Vulkan、Metal等现代图形平台中有实现，其它图形平台皆返回nullptr。

• 每个线程会提交1~N个子命令队列，以确保它们的绘制命令总数不少于MinSize，提升每个线程的提交效率。

• 每个线程会创建一个转译任务FParallelTranslateCommandList，然后利用RHICmdList的FRHICommandWaitForAndSubmitSubListParallel取等待子命令列表的并行提交。

• 注意FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList的预期线程由CPrio_FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList决定：

  FAutoConsoleTaskPriority CPrio_FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList
      // 控制台名称.
      TEXT("TaskGraph.TaskPriorities.ParallelTranslateSetupCommandList"), 
      // 描述.
      TEXT("Task and thread priority for FParallelTranslateSetupCommandList."),
      // 如果有高优先级的线程, 使用之.
      ENamedThreads::HighThreadPriority,
      // 使用高任务优先级.
      ENamedThreads::HighTaskPriority,
      // 如果没有高优先级的线程, 则使用普遍优先级的线程, 但使用高任务优先级代替之.
      ENamedThreads::HighTaskPriority
      );
  

  因此可知，设置转译的任务会被TaskGraph系统优先执行，但发起设置转译任务的线程还是渲染线程而非RHI线程。

10.4.3.4 FParallelTranslateCommandList

FParallelTranslateCommandList便是真正地转译命令队列，它的定义如下：

class FParallelTranslateCommandList
{
    // 待转译的命令列表.
    FRHICommandListBase** RHICmdLists;
    // 需转译的命令列表数量.
    int32 NumCommandLists;
    // 上下文容器.
    IRHICommandContextContainer* ContextContainer;
    // 是否提前深度pass.
    bool bIsPrepass;
    
public:
    FParallelTranslateCommandList(FRHICommandListBase** InRHICmdLists, int32 InNumCommandLists, IRHICommandContextContainer* InContextContainer, bool bInIsPrepass)
        : RHICmdLists(InRHICmdLists)
        , NumCommandLists(InNumCommandLists)
        , ContextContainer(InContextContainer)
        , bIsPrepass(bInIsPrepass)
    {
        check(RHICmdLists && ContextContainer && NumCommandLists);
    }

    static FORCEINLINE TStatId GetStatId();

    // 预期的线程, 根据是否Prepass而定.
    ENamedThreads::Type GetDesiredThread()
    {
        return bIsPrepass ? CPrio_FParallelTranslateCommandListPrepass.Get() : CPrio_FParallelTranslateCommandList.Get();
    }

    static ESubsequentsMode::Type GetSubsequentsMode() { return ESubsequentsMode::TrackSubsequents; }

    // 执行任务.
    void DoTask(ENamedThreads::Type CurrentThread, const FGraphEventRef& MyCompletionGraphEvent)
    {
        IRHICommandContext* Context = ContextContainer->GetContext();
        for (int32 Index = 0; Index < NumCommandLists; Index++)
        {
            // 设置子命令队列的上下文.
            RHICmdLists[Index]->SetContext(Context);
            // 删除子命令队列. 
            delete RHICmdLists[Index];
        }
        // 清理上下文.
        ContextContainer->FinishContext();
    }
};

上面的代码需要补充几点说明：

• GetDesiredThread根据是否prepass由两个控制台遍历决定：

  FAutoConsoleTaskPriority CPrio_FParallelTranslateCommandListPrepass(
      TEXT("TaskGraph.TaskPriorities.ParallelTranslateCommandListPrepass"),
      TEXT("Task and thread priority for FParallelTranslateCommandList for the prepass, which we would like to get to the GPU asap."),
      ENamedThreads::NormalThreadPriority,
      ENamedThreads::HighTaskPriority
      );
  
  FAutoConsoleTaskPriority CPrio_FParallelTranslateCommandList(
      TEXT("TaskGraph.TaskPriorities.ParallelTranslateCommandList"),
      TEXT("Task and thread priority for FParallelTranslateCommandList."),
      ENamedThreads::NormalThreadPriority,
      ENamedThreads::NormalTaskPriority
      );
  

  由此可知，如果是prepass，使用普通优先级的线程但高任务优先级，其它pass则使用普通优先级的线程和普通的任务优先级。

• DoTask逻辑非常简单，给命令队列设置上下文，然后将命令队列删除，最后清理上下文。不过这里有个疑问，转译任务在哪里执行？几番盘查之后，发现是在FRHICommandListBase的析构函数之中，调用堆栈如下：

  FRHICommandListBase::~FRHICommandListBase()
  {
      // 刷新命令列表.
      Flush();
      GRHICommandList.OutstandingCmdListCount.Decrement();
  }
  
  void FRHICommandListBase::Flush()
  {
      // 如果存在命令.
      if (HasCommands())
      {
          check(!IsImmediate());
          // 用全局命令列表执行之. GRHICommandList的类型是FRHICommandListExecutor.
          GRHICommandList.ExecuteList(*this);
      }
  }
  
  void FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteList(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList)
  {
      if (IsInRenderingThread() && !GetImmediateCommandList().IsExecuting())
      {
          GetImmediateCommandList().ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::DispatchToRHIThread);
      }
  
      ExecuteInner(CmdList);
  }
  
  void FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner(FRHICommandListBase& CmdList)
  {
      (......)
  }
  

  到了FRHICommandListExecutor::ExecuteInner这一步，就交给FRHICommandListExecutor处理了，具体过程和解析见10.4.1 RHI命令执行。

不过再次强调的是，需要图形API支持并行提交和转译，才能开启真正的并行渲染，否则就只能按照普通的任务放到渲染线程执行。

10.4.4 Pass渲染

10.4.4.1 普通Pass渲染

普通Pass的渲染涉及到以下接口和类型：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHIResources.h

// 渲染通道信息.
struct FRHIRenderPassInfo
{
    // 渲染纹理信息.
    struct FColorEntry
    {
        FRHITexture* RenderTarget;
        FRHITexture* ResolveTarget;
        int32 ArraySlice;
        uint8 MipIndex;
        ERenderTargetActions Action;
    };
    FColorEntry ColorRenderTargets[MaxSimultaneousRenderTargets];

    // 深度模板信息.
    struct FDepthStencilEntry
    {
        FRHITexture* DepthStencilTarget;

        FExclusiveDepthStencil ExclusiveDepthStencil;
    };
    FDepthStencilEntry DepthStencilRenderTarget;

    // 解析参数.
    FResolveParams ResolveParameters;

    // 部分RHI可以使用纹理来控制不同区域的采样和/或阴影分辨率
    FTextureRHIRef FoveationTexture = nullptr;

    // 部分RHI需要一个提示，遮挡查询将在这个渲染通道中使用
    uint32 NumOcclusionQueries = 0;
    bool bOcclusionQueries = false;

    // 部分RHI需要知道，在为部分资源转换生成mip映射的情况下，这个渲染通道是否将读取和写入相同的纹理.
    bool bGeneratingMips = false;

    // 如果这个renderpass应该是多视图，则需要多少视图.
    uint8 MultiViewCount = 0;

    // 部分RHI的提示，渲染通道将有特定的子通道.
    ESubpassHint SubpassHint = ESubpassHint::None;

    // 是否太多UAV.
    bool bTooManyUAVs = false;
    bool bIsMSAA = false;

    // 不同的构造函数.
    
    // Color, no depth, optional resolve, optional mip, optional array slice
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* ColorRT, ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* ResolveRT = nullptr, uint32 InMipIndex = 0, int32 InArraySlice = -1);

    // Color MRTs and depth
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(int32 NumColorRTs, FRHITexture* ColorRTs[], ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* DepthRT, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);
    // Color MRTs and depth
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(int32 NumColorRTs, FRHITexture* ColorRTs[], ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* ResolveRTs[], FRHITexture* DepthRT, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FRHITexture* ResolveDepthRT, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);
    // Depth, no color
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* DepthRT, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FRHITexture* ResolveDepthRT = nullptr, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);
    // Depth, no color, occlusion queries
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* DepthRT, uint32 InNumOcclusionQueries, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FRHITexture* ResolveDepthRT = nullptr, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);
    // Color and depth
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* ColorRT, ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* DepthRT, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);
    // Color and depth with resolve
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* ColorRT, ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* ResolveColorRT,

    // Color and depth with resolve and optional sample density
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(FRHITexture* ColorRT, ERenderTargetActions ColorAction, FRHITexture* ResolveColorRT,
        FRHITexture* DepthRT, EDepthStencilTargetActions DepthActions, FRHITexture* ResolveDepthRT, FRHITexture* InFoveationTexture, FExclusiveDepthStencil InEDS = FExclusiveDepthStencil::DepthWrite_StencilWrite);

    enum ENoRenderTargets
    {
        NoRenderTargets,
    };
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo(ENoRenderTargets Dummy);
    explicit FRHIRenderPassInfo();

    inline int32 GetNumColorRenderTargets() const;
    RHI_API void Validate() const;
    RHI_API void ConvertToRenderTargetsInfo(FRHISetRenderTargetsInfo& OutRTInfo) const;

    (......)
};

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

class RHI_API FRHICommandList : public FRHIComputeCommandList
{
public:
    void BeginRenderPass(const FRHIRenderPassInfo& InInfo, const TCHAR* Name)
    {
        if (InInfo.bTooManyUAVs)
        {
            UE_LOG(LogRHI, Warning, TEXT("RenderPass %s has too many UAVs"));
        }
        InInfo.Validate();

        // 直接调用RHI的接口.
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIBeginRenderPass(InInfo, Name);
        }
        // 分配RHI命令.
        else
        {
            TCHAR* NameCopy  = AllocString(Name);
            ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandBeginRenderPass)(InInfo, NameCopy);
        }
        // 设置在RenderPass内标记.
        Data.bInsideRenderPass = true;

        // 缓存活动的RT.
        CacheActiveRenderTargets(InInfo);
        // 重置子Pass.
        ResetSubpass(InInfo.SubpassHint);
        Data.bInsideRenderPass = true;
    }

    void EndRenderPass()
    {
        // 调用或分配RHI接口.
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIEndRenderPass();
        }
        else
        {
            ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandEndRenderPass)();
        }
        // 重置在RenderPass内标记.
        Data.bInsideRenderPass = false;
        // 重置子Pass标记为None.
        ResetSubpass(ESubpassHint::None);
    }
};

它们的使用案例如下：

void FSceneRenderer::RenderShadowDepthMaps(FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList)
{
    (......)
    
    for (int32 AtlasIndex = 0; AtlasIndex < SortedShadowsForShadowDepthPass.TranslucencyShadowMapAtlases.Num(); AtlasIndex++)
    {
        const FSortedShadowMapAtlas& ShadowMapAtlas = SortedShadowsForShadowDepthPass.TranslucencyShadowMapAtlases[AtlasIndex];
        FIntPoint TargetSize = ShadowMapAtlas.RenderTargets.ColorTargets[0]->GetDesc().Extent;

        FSceneRenderTargetItem ColorTarget0 = ShadowMapAtlas.RenderTargets.ColorTargets[0]->GetRenderTargetItem();
        FSceneRenderTargetItem ColorTarget1 = ShadowMapAtlas.RenderTargets.ColorTargets[1]->GetRenderTargetItem();

        FRHITexture* RenderTargetArray[2] =
        {
            ColorTarget0.TargetableTexture,
            ColorTarget1.TargetableTexture
        };

        // 创建FRHIRenderPassInfo实例.
        FRHIRenderPassInfo RPInfo(UE_ARRAY_COUNT(RenderTargetArray), RenderTargetArray, ERenderTargetActions::Load_Store);
        TransitionRenderPassTargets(RHICmdList, RPInfo);
        // 开始渲染Pass.
        RHICmdList.BeginRenderPass(RPInfo, TEXT("RenderTranslucencyDepths"));
        {
            // 渲染阴影.
            for (int32 ShadowIndex = 0; ShadowIndex < ShadowMapAtlas.Shadows.Num(); ShadowIndex++)
            {
                FProjectedShadowInfo* ProjectedShadowInfo = ShadowMapAtlas.Shadows[ShadowIndex];
                ProjectedShadowInfo->SetupShadowUniformBuffers(RHICmdList, Scene);
                ProjectedShadowInfo->RenderTranslucencyDepths(RHICmdList, this);
            }
        }
        // 结束渲染Pass.
        RHICmdList.EndRenderPass();

        RHICmdList.Transition(FRHITransitionInfo(ColorTarget0.TargetableTexture, ERHIAccess::Unknown, ERHIAccess::SRVMask));
        RHICmdList.Transition(FRHITransitionInfo(ColorTarget1.TargetableTexture, ERHIAccess::Unknown, ERHIAccess::SRVMask));
    }
    
    (......)
}

10.4.4.2 Subpass渲染

先说一下Subpass的由来、作用和特点。

在传统的多Pass渲染中，每个Pass结束时通常会渲染出一组渲染纹理，部分成为着色器参数提供给下一个Pass采样读取。这种纹理采样方式不受任何限制，可以读取任意的领域像素，使用任意的纹理过滤方式。这种方式虽然使用灵活，但在TBR（Tile-Based Renderer）硬件架构的设备中会有较大的消耗：渲染纹理的Pass通常会将渲染结果存储在On-chip的Tile Memory中，待Pass结束后会写回GPU显存（VRAM）中，写回GPU显存是个耗时耗耗电的操作。

传统多Pass之间的内存存取模型，多次发生于On-Chip和全局存储器之间。

如果出现一种特殊的纹理使用情况：上一个Pass渲染处理的纹理，立即被下一个Pass使用，并且下一个Pass只采样像素位置自身的数据，而不需要采样邻域像素的位置。这种情况就符合了Subpass的使用情景。使用Subpass渲染的纹理结果只会存储在Tile Memory中，在Subpass结束后不会写回VRAM，而直接提供Tile Memory的数据给下一个Subpass采样读取。这样就避免了传统Pass结束写回GPU显存以及下一个Pass又从GPU显存读数据的耗时耗电操作，从而提升了性能。

Subpass之间的内存存取模型，都发生在On-Chip内。

UE涉及Subpass的接口和类型如下：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHIResources.h

// 提供给RHI的Subpass标记.
enum class ESubpassHint : uint8
{
    None,                    // 传统渲染(非Subpass)
    DepthReadSubpass,        // 深度读取Subpass.
    DeferredShadingSubpass, // 移动端延迟着色Subpass.
};

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.h

class RHI_API FRHICommandListBase : public FNoncopyable
{
    (......)
    
protected:
    // PSO上下文.
    struct FPSOContext
    {
        uint32 CachedNumSimultanousRenderTargets = 0;
        TStaticArray<FRHIRenderTargetView, MaxSimultaneousRenderTargets> CachedRenderTargets;
        FRHIDepthRenderTargetView CachedDepthStencilTarget;
        
        // Subpass提示标记.
        ESubpassHint SubpassHint = ESubpassHint::None;
        uint8 SubpassIndex = 0;
        uint8 MultiViewCount = 0;
        bool HasFragmentDensityAttachment = false;
    } PSOContext;
};

class RHI_API FRHICommandList : public FRHIComputeCommandList
{
public:
    void BeginRenderPass(const FRHIRenderPassInfo& InInfo, const TCHAR* Name)
    {
        (......)

        CacheActiveRenderTargets(InInfo);
        // 设置Subpass数据.
        ResetSubpass(InInfo.SubpassHint);
        Data.bInsideRenderPass = true;
    }

    void EndRenderPass()
    {
        (......)
        
        // 重置Subpass标记为None.
        ResetSubpass(ESubpassHint::None);
    }

    // 下一个Subpass.
    void NextSubpass()
    {
        // 分配或调用RHI接口.
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHINextSubpass();
        }
        else
        {
            ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandNextSubpass)();
        }
        
        // 增加Subpass计数.
        IncrementSubpass();
    }
    
    // 增加subpass计数.
    void IncrementSubpass()
    {
        PSOContext.SubpassIndex++;
    }
    
    // 重置Subpass数据.
    void ResetSubpass(ESubpassHint SubpassHint)
    {
        PSOContext.SubpassHint = SubpassHint;
        PSOContext.SubpassIndex = 0;
    }
};

UE的Subpass主要集中在移动端渲染器：

原因是移动端TBR架构的硬件设备越来越多，占比愈来愈大，Subpass成为移动端主渲染器的首选是必然且合理的。

在Subpass渲染中，还是涉及到了Pass的Overlap问题，采用Overlap可以提升GPU的使用率，提升渲染性能（下图）。

上：未采用Overlap技术的Subpass管线；下：采用了Overlap技术的Subpass管线。

RHI有关Overlap的指令主要是UAV：

class RHI_API FRHIComputeCommandList : public FRHICommandListBase
{
    (......)
    
    void BeginUAVOverlap()
    {
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIBeginUAVOverlap();
            return;
        }
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandBeginUAVOverlap)();
    }

    void EndUAVOverlap()
    {
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIEndUAVOverlap();
            return;
        }
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandEndUAVOverlap)();
    }

    void BeginUAVOverlap(FRHIUnorderedAccessView* UAV)
    {
        FRHIUnorderedAccessView* UAVs[1] = { UAV };
        BeginUAVOverlap(MakeArrayView(UAVs, 1));
    }

    void EndUAVOverlap(FRHIUnorderedAccessView* UAV)
    {
        FRHIUnorderedAccessView* UAVs[1] = { UAV };
        EndUAVOverlap(MakeArrayView(UAVs, 1));
    }

    void BeginUAVOverlap(TArrayView<FRHIUnorderedAccessView* const> UAVs)
    {
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIBeginUAVOverlap(UAVs);
            return;
        }

        const uint32 AllocSize = UAVs.Num() * sizeof(FRHIUnorderedAccessView*);
        FRHIUnorderedAccessView** InlineUAVs = (FRHIUnorderedAccessView**)Alloc(AllocSize, alignof(FRHIUnorderedAccessView*));
        FMemory::Memcpy(InlineUAVs, UAVs.GetData(), AllocSize);
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandBeginSpecificUAVOverlap)(MakeArrayView(InlineUAVs, UAVs.Num()));
    }

    void EndUAVOverlap(TArrayView<FRHIUnorderedAccessView* const> UAVs)
    {
        if (Bypass())
        {
            GetContext().RHIEndUAVOverlap(UAVs);
            return;
        }

        const uint32 AllocSize = UAVs.Num() * sizeof(FRHIUnorderedAccessView*);
        FRHIUnorderedAccessView** InlineUAVs = (FRHIUnorderedAccessView**)Alloc(AllocSize, alignof(FRHIUnorderedAccessView*));
        FMemory::Memcpy(InlineUAVs, UAVs.GetData(), AllocSize);
        ALLOC_COMMAND(FRHICommandEndSpecificUAVOverlap)(MakeArrayView(InlineUAVs, UAVs.Num()));
    }
}

10.4.5 RHI资源管理

10.2.2 FRHIResource章节已经阐述过RHI资源的基本接口，FRHIResource自身拥有引用计数和引用计数增加、减少的接口：

class RHI_API FRHIResource
{
public:
    // 增加引用计数.
    uint32 AddRef() const;
    // 减少引用计数.
    uint32 Release() const;
    // 获取引用计数.
    uint32 GetRefCount() const;
};

当然，我们不需要直接引用和管理FRHIResource的实例和计数，而是结合TRefCountPtr的模板类实现自动化管理RHI资源：

// 各种RHI资源引用类型定义.
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHISamplerState> FSamplerStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIRasterizerState> FRasterizerStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIDepthStencilState> FDepthStencilStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIBlendState> FBlendStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIVertexDeclaration> FVertexDeclarationRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIVertexShader> FVertexShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIHullShader> FHullShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIDomainShader> FDomainShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIPixelShader> FPixelShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIGeometryShader> FGeometryShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIComputeShader> FComputeShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIRayTracingShader> FRayTracingShaderRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIComputeFence>    FComputeFenceRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIBoundShaderState> FBoundShaderStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIUniformBuffer> FUniformBufferRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIIndexBuffer> FIndexBufferRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIVertexBuffer> FVertexBufferRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIStructuredBuffer> FStructuredBufferRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITexture> FTextureRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITexture2D> FTexture2DRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITexture2DArray> FTexture2DArrayRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITexture3D> FTexture3DRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITextureCube> FTextureCubeRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITextureReference> FTextureReferenceRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIRenderQuery> FRenderQueryRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIRenderQueryPool> FRenderQueryPoolRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHITimestampCalibrationQuery> FTimestampCalibrationQueryRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIGPUFence>    FGPUFenceRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIViewport> FViewportRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIUnorderedAccessView> FUnorderedAccessViewRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIShaderResourceView> FShaderResourceViewRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIGraphicsPipelineState> FGraphicsPipelineStateRHIRef;
typedef TRefCountPtr<FRHIRayTracingPipelineState> FRayTracingPipelineStateRHIRef;

使用以上类型之后，RHI资源由TRefCountPtr自动管理引用计数，其中资源的释放是在FRHIResource::Release中：

class RHI_API FRHIResource
{
    uint32 Release() const
    {
        // 计数-1.
        int32 NewValue = NumRefs.Decrement();
        // 如果计数为0, 处理资源删除.
        if (NewValue == 0)
        {
            // 非延迟删除, 直接delete.
            if (!DeferDelete())
            { 
                delete this;
            }
            // 延迟删除模式.
            else
            {
                // 使用平台相关的原子对比, 为0则加入待删除列表.
                if (FPlatformAtomics::InterlockedCompareExchange(&MarkedForDelete, 1, 0) == 0)
                {
                    PendingDeletes.Push(const_cast<FRHIResource*>(this));
                }
            }
        }
        
        // 返回新的值.
        return uint32(NewValue);
    }
    
    bool DeferDelete() const
    {
        // 启用了多线程渲染且GRHINeedsExtraDeletionLatency为true, 且资源没有不延迟删除的标记.
        return !bDoNotDeferDelete && (GRHINeedsExtraDeletionLatency || !Bypass());
    }
};

PendingDeletes是FRHIResource的静态变量，与它相关的数据和接口有：

class RHI_API FRHIResource
{
public:
    FRHIResource(bool InbDoNotDeferDelete = false)
        : MarkedForDelete(0)
        , bDoNotDeferDelete(InbDoNotDeferDelete)
        , bCommitted(true)
    {
    }
    virtual ~FRHIResource() 
    {
        check(PlatformNeedsExtraDeletionLatency() || (NumRefs.GetValue() == 0 && (CurrentlyDeleting == this || bDoNotDeferDelete || Bypass()))); // this should not have any outstanding refs
    }

    // 待删除资源列表, 注意是无锁无序的指针列表.
    static TLockFreePointerListUnordered<FRHIResource, PLATFORM_CACHE_LINE_SIZE> PendingDeletes;
    // 当前正在删除的资源.
    static FRHIResource* CurrentlyDeleting;
    
    // 平台需要额外的删除延迟.
    static bool PlatformNeedsExtraDeletionLatency()
    {
        return GRHINeedsExtraDeletionLatency && GIsRHIInitialized;
    }

    // 待删除资源列表.
    struct ResourcesToDelete
    {
        TArray<FRHIResource*>    Resources;
        uint32                    FrameDeleted;
    };

    // 延迟删除队列.
    static TArray<ResourcesToDelete> DeferredDeletionQueue;
    static uint32 CurrentFrame;
};

void FRHIResource::FlushPendingDeletes(bool bFlushDeferredDeletes)
{
    FRHICommandListImmediate& RHICmdList = FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList();
    
    // 在删除RHI资源之前, 先确保命令列表已被刷新到GPU.
    RHICmdList.ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThread);
    // 确保没有等待的任务.
    FRHICommandListExecutor::CheckNoOutstandingCmdLists();
    // 通知RHI刷新完成.
    if (GDynamicRHI)
    {
        GDynamicRHI->RHIPerFrameRHIFlushComplete();
    }

    // 删除匿名函数.
    auto Delete = [](TArray<FRHIResource*>& ToDelete)
    {
        for (int32 Index = 0; Index < ToDelete.Num(); Index++)
        {
            FRHIResource* Ref = ToDelete[Index];
            check(Ref->MarkedForDelete == 1);
            if (Ref->GetRefCount() == 0) // caches can bring dead objects back to life
            {
                CurrentlyDeleting = Ref;
                delete Ref;
                CurrentlyDeleting = nullptr;
            }
            else
            {
                Ref->MarkedForDelete = 0;
                FPlatformMisc::MemoryBarrier();
            }
        }
    };

    while (1)
    {
        if (PendingDeletes.IsEmpty())
        {
            break;
        }
        
        // 平台需要额外的删除延迟.
        if (PlatformNeedsExtraDeletionLatency())
        {
            const int32 Index = DeferredDeletionQueue.AddDefaulted();
            // 加入延迟删除队列DeferredDeletionQueue.
            ResourcesToDelete& ResourceBatch = DeferredDeletionQueue[Index];
            ResourceBatch.FrameDeleted = CurrentFrame;
            PendingDeletes.PopAll(ResourceBatch.Resources);
        }
        // 不需要额外的延迟, 删除整个列表.
        else
        {
            TArray<FRHIResource*> ToDelete;
            PendingDeletes.PopAll(ToDelete);
            Delete(ToDelete);
        }
    }

    const uint32 NumFramesToExpire = RHIRESOURCE_NUM_FRAMES_TO_EXPIRE;

    // 删除DeferredDeletionQueue.
    if (DeferredDeletionQueue.Num())
    {
        // 清空整个DeferredDeletionQueue队列.
        if (bFlushDeferredDeletes)
        {
            FRHICommandListExecutor::GetImmediateCommandList().BlockUntilGPUIdle();

            for (int32 Idx = 0; Idx < DeferredDeletionQueue.Num(); ++Idx)
            {
                ResourcesToDelete& ResourceBatch = DeferredDeletionQueue[Idx];
                Delete(ResourceBatch.Resources);
            }

            DeferredDeletionQueue.Empty();
        }
        // 删除过期的资源列表.
        else
        {
            int32 DeletedBatchCount = 0;
            while (DeletedBatchCount < DeferredDeletionQueue.Num())
            {
                ResourcesToDelete& ResourceBatch = DeferredDeletionQueue[DeletedBatchCount];
                if (((ResourceBatch.FrameDeleted + NumFramesToExpire) < CurrentFrame) || !GIsRHIInitialized)
                {
                    Delete(ResourceBatch.Resources);
                    ++DeletedBatchCount;
                }
                else
                {
                    break;
                }
            }

            if (DeletedBatchCount)
            {
                DeferredDeletionQueue.RemoveAt(0, DeletedBatchCount);
            }
        }

        ++CurrentFrame;
    }
}

不过，需要特意指出，FRHIResource的析构函数并没有释放任何RHI资源，通常需要在FRHIResource的图形平台相关的子类析构函数中执行，以FD3D11UniformBuffer：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Windows\D3D11RHI\Public\D3D11Resources.h

class FD3D11UniformBuffer : public FRHIUniformBuffer
{
public:
    // D3D11固定缓冲资源.
    TRefCountPtr<ID3D11Buffer> Resource;
    // 包含了RHI引用的资源表.
    TArray<TRefCountPtr<FRHIResource> > ResourceTable;

    FD3D11UniformBuffer(class FD3D11DynamicRHI* InD3D11RHI, const FRHIUniformBufferLayout& InLayout, ID3D11Buffer* InResource,const FRingAllocation& InRingAllocation);
    virtual ~FD3D11UniformBuffer();

    (......)
};

// Engine\Source\Runtime\Windows\D3D11RHI\Private\D3D11UniformBuffer.cpp

FD3D11UniformBuffer::~FD3D11UniformBuffer()
{
    if (!RingAllocation.IsValid() && Resource != nullptr)
    {
        D3D11_BUFFER_DESC Desc;
        Resource->GetDesc(&Desc);

        // 将此统一缓冲区返回给空闲池.
        if (Desc.CPUAccessFlags == D3D11_CPU_ACCESS_WRITE && Desc.Usage == D3D11_USAGE_DYNAMIC)
        {
            FPooledUniformBuffer NewEntry;
            NewEntry.Buffer = Resource;
            NewEntry.FrameFreed = GFrameNumberRenderThread;
            NewEntry.CreatedSize = Desc.ByteWidth;

            // Add to this frame's array of free uniform buffers
            const int32 SafeFrameIndex = (GFrameNumberRenderThread - 1) % NumSafeFrames;
            const uint32 BucketIndex = GetPoolBucketIndex(Desc.ByteWidth);
            int32 LastNum = SafeUniformBufferPools[SafeFrameIndex][BucketIndex].Num();
            SafeUniformBufferPools[SafeFrameIndex][BucketIndex].Add(NewEntry);

            FPlatformMisc::MemoryBarrier(); // check for unwanted concurrency
        }
    }
}

上面的分析显示，RHI资源的释放主要在FlushPendingDeletes接口中，涉及它的调用有：

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RenderCore\Private\RenderingThread.cpp

void FlushPendingDeleteRHIResources_RenderThread()
{
    if (!IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        FRHIResource::FlushPendingDeletes();
    }
}

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Private\RHICommandList.cpp

void FRHICommandListExecutor::LatchBypass()
{
#if CAN_TOGGLE_COMMAND_LIST_BYPASS
    if (IsRunningRHIInSeparateThread())
    {
        (......)
    }
    else
    {
        (......)

        if (NewBypass && !bLatchedBypass)
        {
            FRHIResource::FlushPendingDeletes();
        }
    }
#endif
    
    (......)
}

// Engine\Source\Runtime\RHI\Public\RHICommandList.inl

void FRHICommandListImmediate::ImmediateFlush(EImmediateFlushType::Type FlushType)
{
    switch (FlushType)
    {
    (......)
            
    case EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResources:
    case EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResourcesFlushDeferredDeletes:
        {
            (......)
            
            PipelineStateCache::FlushResources();
            FRHIResource::FlushPendingDeletes(FlushType == EImmediateFlushType::FlushRHIThreadFlushResourcesFlushDeferredDeletes);
        }
        break;
    (......)
    }
}

RHI抽象层主要是以上几处调用FlushPendingDeletes，但以下的图形平台相关的接口也会调用：

• FD3D12Adapter::Cleanup()
• FD3D12Device::Cleanup()
• FVulkanDevice::Destroy()
• FVulkanDynamicRHI::Shutdown()
• FD3D11DynamicRHI::CleanupD3DDevice()

10.4.6 再论多线程渲染

剖析虚幻渲染体系（02）- 多线程渲染篇章中已经详尽地阐述了UE多线程的体系和渲染机制，本节结合下图补充一些说明。

UE的渲染流程中，最多存在4种工作线程：游戏线程（Game Thread）、渲染线程（Render Thread）、RHI线程和GPU（含驱动）。

游戏线程是整个引擎的驱动者，提供所有的源数据和事件，以驱动渲染线程和RHI线程。游戏线程领先渲染线程不超过1帧，更具体地说如果第N帧的渲染线程在第N+1帧的游戏线程的Tick结束时还没有完成，那么游戏线程会被渲染线程卡住。反之，如果游戏线程负载过重，没能及时发送事件和数据给渲染线程，也会导致渲染线程卡住。

渲染线程负责产生RHI的中间命令，在适当的时机派发、刷新指令到RHI线程。因此，渲染线程的卡顿也可能导致RHI的卡顿。

RHI线程负责派发（可选）、转译、提交指令，且渲染的最后一步需要SwapBuffer，这一步需要等待GPU完成渲染工作。因此，渲染GPU的繁忙也会导致RHI线程的卡顿。

除了游戏线程，渲染线程、RHI线程和GPU的工作都是存在间隙的，即游戏线程提供给渲染任务的时机会影响渲染工作的密度，也会影响到渲染的时间，小量多次会浪费渲染效率。

10.4.7 RHI控制台变量

前面章节的代码也显示RHI体系涉及的控制台变量非常多，下面列出部分控制台变量，以便调试、优化RHI渲染效果或效率：

名称	描述
r.RHI.Name	显示当前RHI的名字，如D3D11。
r.RHICmdAsyncRHIThreadDispatch	实验选项，是否执行RHI调度异步。可使数据更快地刷新到RHI线程，避免帧末尾出现卡顿。
r.RHICmdBalanceParallelLists	允许启用DrawList的预处理，以尝试在命令列表之间均衡负载。0：关闭，1：开启，2：实验选项，使用上一帧的结果（在分屏等不做任何事情）。
r.RHICmdBalanceTranslatesAfterTasks	实验选项，平衡并行翻译后的渲染任务完成。可最小化延迟上下文的数量，但会增加启动转译的延迟。
r.RHICmdBufferWriteLocks	仅与RHI线程相关。用于诊断缓冲锁问题的调试选项。
r.RHICmdBypass	是否绕过RHI命令列表，立即发送RHI命令。0：禁用（需开启多线程渲染），1：开启。
r.RHICmdCollectRHIThreadStatsFromHighLevel	这将在执行的RHI线程上推送统计信息，这样就可以确定它们来自哪个高层级的Pass。对帧速率有不利影响。默认开启。
r.RHICmdFlushOnQueueParallelSubmit	在提交后立即等待并行命令列表的完成。问题诊断。只适用于部分RHI。
r.RHICmdFlushRenderThreadTasks	如果为真，则每次调用时都刷新渲染线程任务。问题诊断。这是一个更细粒度cvars的主开关。
r.RHICmdForceRHIFlush	对每个任务强制刷新发送给RHI线程。问题诊断。
r.RHICmdMergeSmallDeferredContexts	合并小的并行转译任务，基于r.RHICmdMinDrawsPerParallelCmdList。
r.RHICmdUseDeferredContexts	使用延迟上下文并行执行命令列表。只适用于部分RHI。
r.RHICmdUseParallelAlgorithms	True使用并行算法。如果r.RHICmdBypass为1则忽略。
r.RHICmdUseThread	使用RHI线程。问题诊断。
r.RHICmdWidth	控制并行渲染器中大量事物的任务粒度。
r.RHIThread.Enable	启用/禁用RHI线程，并确定RHI工作是否在专用线程上运行。
RHI.GPUHitchThreshold	GPU上检测卡顿的阈值(毫秒)。
RHI.MaximumFrameLatency	可以排队进行渲染的帧数。
RHI.SyncThreshold	在垂直同步功能启用前的连续“快速”帧数。
RHI.TargetRefreshRate	如果非零，则显示的更新频率永远不会超过目标刷新率(以Hz为单位)。

需要注意的是，以上只列出部分RHI相关的变量，还有很多未列出，具体可以在下列菜单中查看全面命令：

 

10.5 本篇总结

本篇主要阐述了UE的RHI体系的基础概念、类型、机制，希望童鞋们学习完本篇之后，对UE的RHI不再陌生，能够轻松自如地掌握、应用、扩展它。

10.5.1 本篇思考

按惯例，本篇也布置一些小思考，以助理解和加深UE RHI体系的掌握和理解：

• RHI资源有哪些类型？和渲染层的资源有什么关系和区别？渲染系统如何删除RHI资源？

• RHI的命令有哪些主要类型？命令列表的执行机制和流程是怎样的？

• 简述RHI的上下文和DynamicRHI之间的关联。简述D3D11的实现架构。

• UE的多线程之间的关联如何？什么因素会导致它们的卡顿？
