Taking a look to the last version of the core grammar [1], it seems that all the extensions, but SPV_AMD_gcn_shader are now part of the core. For the latter, I found a json file as part of spirv-tools [3] But when I wrote this patch, some of the extensions were not part of the core, and as far as I saw, they were just listed on the registry [2]. I was not able to find a individual json core grammar for some extensions then. On the commit message I mention generate_grammar_tables. From a comment there: #Extensions to recognize, but which don't necessarily come from the SPIR-V #core grammar. Get this list from the SPIR-V registery web page. So right now one option would be create that list from the core grammar plus the grammar amd one. But what would happen if a new extension is defined without a grammar file? Would we just write one ourselves? Would we ask khronos (or who defined the spec) to provide one?
