Inconsistent matrix indexing inside/outside a kernel

[Luke-Skycrawler]

Bug Description

It seems we get different matrices depending on whether the code is inside a kernel if we construct the matrix by vectors.

import warp as wp

wp.init()

a = wp.mat33(wp.vec3(1.0), wp.vec3(2.0),wp.vec3(3.0))
print(a[0])

@wp.kernel
def test():
    A = wp.mat33(wp.vec3(1.0), wp.vec3(2.0),wp.vec3(3.0))
    print(A[0])

wp.launch(test,(1))

We get (1, 1, 1) on the first print but (1,2,3) on the second. The matrix a is constructed by the rows but inside a kernel it's constructed by the columns. It would be better if they run by the same rule.

Hi @Luke-Skycrawler, thanks for reporting this issue and apologies for any inconvenience caused!

The intention is for vectors to be row-major, so the kernel constructor is incorrect.

I'll discuss how to best tackle this issue with the team since addressing it would cause a breaking change.
