# Contributing

We encourage anyone who wants to contribute to the validation layer to submit
[Issues](https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero/issues) and
[Pull Requests](https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero/pulls). We will help
review these for proper alignment with the
[Level Zero Specification](https://spec.oneapi.com/level-zero/latest/index.html).

## C++ Coding Standards

* C++14 maximum support
* Avoid C Arrays, replace with `std::array<>` / `std::vector<>`
* Avoid "magic numbers"
* Avoid C-style memory allocations in favor of C++
* Use `nullptr` instead of `NULL`
* Don't add `void` to empty argument lists
* Use `std::unique_ptr` in place of `std::auto_ptr`

## Validation Checkers

* To allow for dynamic validation of input/outputs from all Level Zero APIs, the Validation Layer supports pluggable validation checkers.
* These pluggable validation checkers are compiled into the Validation layer and can be enabled thru per checker environment variables.
* Current Checkers are:
* * `PARAMETER_VALIDATION`
* To create your own checker, one must first generate the skeleton for the new checker using the `scripts/generate_checker.py`.
* Generate a checker template thru:
* * `python3 ./scripts/generate_checker.py <CheckerName> <Level Zero Loader Root Directory Path>.`
* * this will create a new folder at `source/layers/validation/checkers/<CheckerName>`
* * this folder will have 3 files, the `CMakeLists.txt` include file, `zel_<CheckerName>_checker.cpp`, and `zel_<CheckerName>_checker.h`
* * Naming Convention of the Checkers in the generator is `PascalCase`.
* * An `EXAMPLE` Checker is located [here](./checkers/template/zel_template_checker.cpp)
* Once one has generated the checker files, one can define intercepts for any of the functions in the Level Zero Specification.
* Each function allows for Prologue and Epilogue intercepts to check both the pre and post call parameters.
* In your generated class, one can overide any functions with:
* * `<L0API>Prologue(`
* * `<L0API>Epilogue(`
* Once your checker meets your needs, include your checker in the compile by adding your new checker folder to:
* * `source/layers/validation/checkers/CMakeLists.txt`
* Your new checker will need to be enabled during runtime with `ZEL_ENABLE_<CheckerName>_CHECKER=1` when the validation layer is enabled with `ZE_ENABLE_VALIDATION_LAYER=1`.
