Very cool!
But I think you need to handle the 's' command which appears in the
interesting workloads. Maybe you could just fake it as a zero duration
batch with a data dependency.
Barriers were even more trivial than that. :)
Fence related commands would also be useful but more difficult I guess.
As would throttling.
I haven't groked your fence command lines so skipped them. Fortunately,
syncs appears to be the only one missed from the "interesting" set of
wsim.
Fences are created with 'f' and then batches can reference them from the
dependency list the same as with data dependencies. When created they
are unsignaled and then 'a' advances the fence addresses relatively to
the 'a' command. For instance 'a.-2' means "signal ready the fence
created two steps above".
Delays could maybe be faked as batches as well by adding input
dependency to everything preceding it.
It would definitely want to be a task with say .engine = -1. It implies
a full barrier as well? Not limited to waiting for an earlier step?
There is 'd' which is a normal/dumb fixed delay, and then 'p' which is
relative to start of the loop, meaning "wait how much is needed so that
time from start of loop to this step is x".
