Using Graphics.Blit on temporary RenderTexture results in different output textures different Graphics APIs and platforms

Mobile Graphics

-

Reproduction steps:
1. Open the project in "read-pixels-bug.zip"
2. Open SampleScene and enter Play Mode
3. Inspect how the 2 first textures look (2 first from left)
4. Build the project for iOS and deploy it
5. Inspect how the 2 first textures look (2 first from left)

Expected result: textures will look the same as in Editor (both red)
Actual result: one of the red textures will be white with a red outline

  1. Resolution Note (fix version 2021.1):

    This observed issue was caused due to a temporary RenderTexture remaining active after being used as the target of a Graphics.Blit operation when RenderTexture.ReleaseTemporary wascalled on it, followed by being reallocated with RenderTexture.GetTemporary. GetTemporary internally invalidates the texture which causes incorrect load/store actions to be set due to it being still bound as active. This causes the difference in rendering on mobile devices in comparison with desktop, as load/store actions have different effects there. The observed effect of this in this particular case is that the first blit operation on mobile would be discarded incorrectly.

    A fix has been made such that if a temporary RenderTexture remains active after RenderTexture.ReleaseTemporary followed by being reallocated by RenderTexture.GetTemporary then the RenderTexture will not be invalidated, to avoid this issue.
