fix: preload SwiftShader before the GPU sandbox locks down again - #53199
Merged
Conversation
Reverts the gpu_init.cc change from https://crrev.com/c/7636200 (Chromium 148). Since then the GPU process only preloads vk_swiftshader.dll when SwiftShader is requested on the command line, but WebGPU still falls back to it when no D3D12 adapter is usable. That load now happens after MITIGATION_FORCE_MS_SIGNED_BINS is in force and is rejected by Code Integrity; in AppX/MSIX packages the rejection terminates the GPU process and flags the package for repair. Fixes #52700 No-Verification-Needed: Windows-only Chromium patch; no runtime surface on Linux. Co-authored-by: Shelley Vohr <shelley.vohr@gmail.com>
