The emulation is enabled for shaders that are compiled after the extension has been enabled. Shaders compiled before the extension is enabled are not subject to emulation. The emulation does not model any specific device, but hypothetical shader units that implement IEEE half-precision floating point and the minimum requirements for lowp in The OpenGL ES Shading Language specification version 1.00.17. It is suggested that the software emulation is implemented in shader code, but a large performance cost on the order of one magnitude is still expected on all operations subject to emulation. + </p> + <div class="note"> + Many varieties of PC GPUs only implement one precision for floating point operations that corresponds to highp in The OpenGL ES Shading Language, so errors in shader code which uses mediump or lowp precision may be undetectable on these GPUs. Testing shaders with this extension enabled is recommended to ensure compatibility with a wide variety of hardware. Due to the large performance cost of emulation, this extension should only be used for testing and not in a production environment. + </div> + <p> + The emulation applies to: + </p> + <ul> + <li>accesses to variables in r-value expressions (not on the left side of an assignment operator, includes passing in parameters to a function)</li> + <li>return values of built-in functions</li> + <li>return values of binary math operators, including assignment and compound assignment</li> + <li>results of binary math operations evaluated as a part of compound assignment</li> + </ul> + <div class="note"> + <p> + Examples of operations not subject to emulation: + </p> + <ul> + <li>The math operator is unary, so storing the result and the return value are not subject to emulation: my_float++;</li> + </ul> + </div> + <features> + <feature> + <p> + Operations listed above resulting in a mediump precision floating point scalar, vector or matrix must perform the following steps on the resulting scalar value or each of the components of the vector or matrix: + </p> + <ol> + <li>Clamp the value to the range [-65504.0, 65504.0].</li> + <li>Determine the floating-point exponent <em>e</em> of the clamped value.</li> + <li>If <em>e</em> < -15, return 0.0, skipping steps 4-6.
