Bug ID: 58264 Summary: regression in multiple apps in Wine >=10.7, error: "Assertion failed: !status && "vkAllocateMemory", file /Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevu lkan/loader_thunks.c, line 93" Product: Wine Version: 10.7 Hardware: x86-64 OS: MacOS Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: cemer99797@isorax.com

Created attachment 78605 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=78605 macOS Terminal log, wine-devel 10.8 running cpuz_x64.exe

On macOS, there is a regression in multiple Windows programs since Wine-devel 10.7 (including 10.8) releases by Gcenx, with the final lines of the terminal output reading:

...

-[MTLHeapDescriptorInternal validateWithDevice:]:327: failed assertion `Heap Descriptor Validation Placement heap type is not supported. ' 01a0:err:msvcrt:_wassert (L"!status && "vkAllocateMemory"",L"/Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c",93) Assertion failed: !status && "vkAllocateMemory", file /Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c, line 93

These programs work fine in Wine-devel 10.6 and lower

tested with Wine-devel 10.7 and 10.8 binary releases from Gcenx (https://github.com/Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds/releases) on macOS 11.7.10

tested with CPU-Z 2.15 (portable) (cpuz_x64.exe) download: https://download.cpuid.com/cpu-z/cpu-z_2.15-en.zip sha256: c8461d995d77a8fe1e8c5823403e88b04b733165cc151083b26379f1fe4b9501

This is a log of the GOG version of System Shock: Enhanced Edition, which also used to work with Wine-devel 10.6

Try again with the official Wine builds, NOT Gcenx.

Is the official Wine build not Gcenx?? https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/MacOS

The `brew install --cask` wine-stable / wine@devel wine@staging points to Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds. The repo is also described as official.

Yes, the official builds are the Gcenx builds, Dean Greer (Gcenx) is the maintainer

With Wine-devel 10.10, the regression with CPU-Z is resolved, but there are still regressions with GPU-Z and System Shock: Enhanced Edition

With Wine-devel 10.10, System Shock: Enhanced Edition launches a black fullscreen window, which then minimizes itself to the macOS dock after <1 second, and then the Error window pop-up appears (see the previous attachment) (note: clicking "Cancel" just crashes Wine, there is no debugger started)

Last lines of the macOS Terminal log:

There is also still the error when running GPU-Z (tested with GPU-Z 2.65.1), the app launches with the "Install GPU-Z?" intro window, but after selecting "Not Now" the GPU-Z splash screen shows up for about 1 second before the app crashes.

--- Comment #8 from ToastyBug cemer99797@isorax.com --- I believe this may have someting to do with WineHQ/Gcenx official builds including MoltenVK 1.3.0 since Wine-devel 10.7 (where these errors first started). My system is running macOS 11 with a 4th-gen (Haswell) Intel CPU and iGPU, which I believe only supports up to Vulkan 1.2, while MoltenVK 1.3.0 now adds support for Vulkan 1.3 (https://github.com/KhronosGroup/MoltenVK/releases/tag/v1.3.0)

--- Comment #9 from ToastyBug cemer99797@isorax.com --- Update for Wine-devel 10.12:

GPU-Z and System Shock are still affected in the same way as in Wine-devel 10.10, but now the last lines of the Terminal log for System Shocks reads:

...

-[MTLHeapDescriptorInternal validateWithDevice:]:327: failed assertion `Heap Descriptor Validation Placement heap type is not supported. ' 0588:err:msvcrt:_wassert (L"!status && "vkAllocateMemory"",L"/Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c",93)

for GPU-Z the Terminal log has the same last lines as in Wine-devel 10.10

BigPEmu (Atari Jaguar emulator) in D3D12 mode is also affected (also since Wine-devel 10.7) with a crash immediately on startup (last lines of macOS Terminal log):

...

-[MTLHeapDescriptorInternal validateWithDevice:]:327: failed assertion `Heap Descriptor Validation Placement heap type is not supported. ' 052c:err:msvcrt:_wassert (L"!status && "vkAllocateMemory"",L"/Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c",93) Assertion failed: !status && "vkAllocateMemory", file /Users/gcenx/Documents/GitHub/wine-private/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c, line 93

to run BigPEmu in D3D12 mode:

cd ~/Downloads/BigPEmu_v119 wine BigPEmu.exe * -localdata -logging -setcfgprop VideoPlugin BigPEmu_Video_D3D12

--- Comment #10 from ToastyBug cemer99797@isorax.com --- update for Wine-devel 10.14 (I haven't tested with 10.13)

## FIXED: * CPU-Z 2.15 (portable) (cpuz_x64.exe) (tested fixed with Wine 10.10) - works and no longer shows vkAllocateMemory errors in macOS Terminal * GPU-Z 2.65.1 (GPU-Z.2.65.1.exe) (tested fixed with Wine 10.14) - works but now shows two vkAllocateMemory errors in macOS Terminal and two of the following errors:

...

VK_ERROR_FEATURE_NOT_PRESENT: Metal does not support buffer robustness.

## STILL BROKEN: * System Shock: Enhanced Edition v1.2.16 (sekhmet_x64.exe) * BigPEmu 1.19 for Windows x64 running in D3D12 mode

using the official WineHQ/Gcenx binary from Homebrew/GitHub: https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/MacOS https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/wine@devel https://github.com/Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds/releases/download/10.13/wine-deve...

--- Comment #12 from ToastyBug cemer99797@isorax.com --- Sometimes, running BigPEmu in D3D12 mode from the command line argument doesn't work (it launches in the default OpenGL mode)

to get around that, launch BigPEmu once to create the config file: % cd ~/Downloads/BigPEmu_v119 % wine BigPEmu.exe * -localdata -logging

and then open BigPEmu_v119/UserData/BigPEmuConfig.bigpcfg and change

...

"VideoPlugin": "BigPEmu_Video_OpenGL",

...

"VideoPlugin": "BigPEmu_Video_D3D12",

and relaunch: % wine BigPEmu.exe * -localdata -logging
