dtourolleandClaude Opus 5 4a2fcb6d22 Render a film stock on the GPU, and let it take over the rendering
The stock model landed in dr-film with no way to see it. This is the
pipeline node, the two texture bindings it reads, and the end-to-end test
that proves the shader agrees with the model.

The design point is that a film simulation is not an adjustment. Every
other node changes a picture; this one makes it. A stock's characteristic
curve does the camera profile's base curve's job -- from measurements
rather than from a curve somebody drew -- so running both renders the
scene twice: the camera's rendering, and then a film's rendering of that.
It looks like neither, and it reads as a colour-management bug with no
colour-management bug to find.

So `Operation::renders` is new. A node declaring it takes camera RGB and
hands back linear sRGB, and the composer emits neither the base curve nor
the conversion out of camera space. Both halves move together, and the
composer keeps them as one string precisely so that getting half of it
right is impossible.

The tables are not parameters, for the reason vignetting's coefficients
are not: they are measurements. dr-pipeline declares the layout as a plain
struct and keeps its no-dependency property; the two crates share no types
on purpose. `EditGraph::set_film_tables` offers them to every node rather
than to the one that wants them, because knowing which concrete type is
which is what the graph is organised not to know.

Bindings 4 and 5 follow the masks precedent: declared unconditionally so
one bind group layout serves every generated shader, bound to 1x1
placeholders when no stock is loaded. Both are interpolated by hand with
textureLoad -- this pipeline binds no sampler, and adding one for two
lookups would cost a binding in every shader. Uploads are keyed on content
so an unchanged stock does not push half a megabyte across the bus per
frame.

The end-to-end test earned its place immediately: it found the density
lookup being filled z-fastest while a 3D texture upload wants x-fastest,
so the red and blue axes were transposed. Green matched exactly, which is
what that bug looks like -- a plausible photograph of the wrong colour,
and one that every unit test on either side of the seam passes. dr-film
now pins the layout in a test that needs no device, and states it where
the field is declared.

DarkRoom

A cross-platform, non-destructive RAW photo editor for Linux and Android.

Status: early. v0.1 is a remote library viewer — see docs/milestone-v0.1.md.

Building

Desktop:

cargo run -p darkroom-desktop

Android (containerised toolchain, see docker/android):

./docker/android/build.sh cargo ndk -t arm64-v8a build --release

Current state

Working: workspace, GPU context and compute pass, adaptive Slint shell, Android cross-compilation of the core crates.

Not yet working: the zero-copy display path. The build currently uploads frames through the CPU, which is exactly what ARCH §6.1 forbids — measured at 96% of frame time at 4K. Replacing it is spike S1, the project's highest priority.

cargo run -p dr-gpu --example bench --features readback

reproduces that measurement.
