UniformMatrix4f does not seem to work
Unless I am doing something wrong, UniformMatrix4f does not work with System.Numerics.Matrix4x4:
// works
fixed (Matrix4x4* native = &_mvp)
Gl.UniformMatrix4(_matrixid, 1, false, (float*)native);
// does not work :(
// Gl.UniformMatrix4f<Matrix4x4>(_matrixid, 1, false, ref _mvp);
Numerics structure have special JIT management, and the generic functions on some platforms uses the "obscure" __makeref keyword, which assumes that the value is allocate on stack.
On what platform are you running?
Maybe in Debug configuration is it working?
The Numerics structures is have a column-major order? Maybe it is sufficient to transpose the matrix.
The Numerics structure maybe does have the proper StructLayout?

Linux, mono, net471

Does not work in it.

Wouldn't my fixed code fail than?
I've checked the unit tests for glUniform1-4v, and they are currently calling generic Uniform calls (but not the generic GetUniform calls), and they run successfully on my machine.
I thought to be confident that the UniformMatrix generic calls are fine too since the underlying implementation is essentially the same. I suspect that the issue is strictly related to the Numerics structure.
If you convert the Numerics.Matrix4 structure to the managed Matrix4x4f structure (or any equivalent), is it working? When I'll have some free time I'll write specific test for UniformMatrix calls.

It was not working, I checked before submitting this issue.
Fun note, I found out that the code runs fine on Windows, but not on Linux.
