Implement the ddy HLSL Function

[farzonl]

• Implement ddy clang builtin,
• Link ddy clang builtin with hlsl_intrinsics.h
• Add sema checks for ddy to CheckHLSLBuiltinFunctionCall in SemaChecking.cpp
• Add codegen for ddy to EmitHLSLBuiltinExpr in CGBuiltin.cpp
• Add codegen tests to clang/test/CodeGenHLSL/builtins/ddy.hlsl
• Add sema tests to clang/test/SemaHLSL/BuiltIns/ddy-errors.hlsl
• Create the int_dx_ddy intrinsic in IntrinsicsDirectX.td
• Create the DXILOpMapping of int_dx_ddy to 84 in DXIL.td
• Create the ddy.ll and ddy_errors.ll tests in llvm/test/CodeGen/DirectX/
• Create the int_spv_ddy intrinsic in IntrinsicsSPIRV.td
• In SPIRVInstructionSelector.cpp create the ddy lowering and map it to int_spv_ddy in SPIRVInstructionSelector::selectIntrinsic.
• Create SPIR-V backend test case in llvm/test/CodeGen/SPIRV/hlsl-intrinsics/ddy.ll

OpDPdy:

Description:

Same result as either OpDPdyFine or
OpDPdyCoarse on P. Selection of which one is
based on external factors.

Result Type must be a scalar or vector of floating-point
type using the IEEE 754 encoding. The component width must
be 32 bits.

The type of P must be the same as Result Type. P is the value to
take the derivative of.

This instruction is only valid in the Fragment Execution
Model.

Capability:

Test Case(s)

Example 1

//dxc ddy_test.hlsl -T lib_6_8 -enable-16bit-types -O0

export float4 fn(float4 p1) {
    return ddy(p1);
}

HLSL:

Returns the partial derivative of the specified value with respect to the screen-space y-coordinate.

ret ddy(x)

This function computes the partial derivative with respect to the screen-space y-coordinate. To compute the partial derivative with respect to the screen-space x-coordinate, use the ddx function.

This function is only supported in pixel shaders.

Parameters

Item	Description
x	[in] The specified value.

Return Value

The partial derivative of the x parameter.

Type Description

Name	Template Type	Component Type	Size
x	scalar, vector, or matrix	float	any
ret	same as input x	float	same dimension(s) as input x
