I have come to the conclusion that there seems to be a bug when trying to retrieve the value of a uniform matrix in a GLSL vertex shader
that is explicitly laid out in a location, while setting the uniform value works, the value returned is in fact of another uniform.
Here is the vertex shader part used, declarations without explicit location have been commented out as they do produce the order 0, 2, 1
which surprisingly does not produce this incorrect behavior.
#version 440
precision highp float;
//uniform mat4 Model;
//uniform mat4 View;
//uniform mat4 Projection;
layout (location = 0) uniform mat4 Model;
layout (location = 1) uniform mat4 View;
layout (location = 2) uniform mat4 Projection;
layout (location = 0) in vec3 in_position;
layout (location = 1) in vec4 in_color;
out vec4 out_color;
void main(void)
{
out_color = in_color;
gl_Position = Projection * View * Model * vec4(in_position, 1.0);
}
It seems that the driver sorts uniforms according their name as trying to change the name to be consecutive in an alphabetical order fools the system.
The second source confirming this is CodeXL where there are also sorted alphabetically, View and Projection being inverted:
Below is the result when explicit locations are not used (behavior is correct)
Here is an example project in C# with OpenTK, create a Console Application and install OpenTK Nuget package (Install-Package OpenTK)
At the very end of the second code block is commented where the incorrect value is being returned.
The fragment shader associated with the former vertex shader.

out vec4 out_frag_color;

out_frag_color = out_color;

EDIT : I have checked against an Intel HD4600, the problem does not occur.
Thank you.
