Commit5a06ee738added a step to the generator to set up the message header when generating the VS_OPCODE_PULL_CONSTANT_LOAD_GEN7 instruction. That pseudo opcode is implemented in terms of multiple actual opcodes, one of which writes to one of the source registers in order to set up the message header. This causes problems because the scheduler isn't aware that the source register is written to and it can end up reorganising the instructions incorrectly such that the write to the source register overwrites a needed value from a previous instruction. This problem was presenting itself as a rendering error in the weapon in Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. Since commit588859e1there is an additional problem that the double register allocated to include the message header would end up being split into two. This wasn't happening previously because the code to split registers was explicitly avoided for instructions that are sending from the GRF. This patch fixes both problems by splitting the code to set up the message header into a new pseudo opcode so that it will be done outside of the generator. This new opcode has the header register as a destination so the scheduler can recognise that the register is written to. This has the additional benefit that the scheduler can optimise the message header slightly better by moving the mov instructions further away from the send instructions. On Skylake it appears to fix the following three Piglit tests without causing any regressions: gs-float-array-variable-index gs-mat3x4-row-major gs-mat4x3-row-major I think we actually may need to do something similar for the fs backend and possibly for message headers from regular texture sampling but I'm not entirely sure. v2: Make sure the exec-size is retained as 8 for the mov instruction to initialise the header from g0. This was accidentally lost during a rebase on top of07c571a39f. Split the patch into two so that the helper function is a separate change. Fix emitting the MOV instruction on Gen7.

File: docs/README.WIN32 Last updated: 21 June 2013 Quick Start ----- ----- Windows drivers are build with SCons. Makefiles or Visual Studio projects are no longer shipped or supported. Run scons libgl-gdi to build gallium based GDI driver. This will work both with MSVS or Mingw. Windows Drivers ------- ------- At this time, only the gallium GDI driver is known to work. Source code also exists in the tree for other drivers in src/mesa/drivers/windows, but the status of this code is unknown. Recipe ------ Building on windows requires several open-source packages. These are steps that work as of this writing. - install python 2.7 - install scons (latest) - install mingw, flex, and bison - install pywin32 from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs get pywin32-218.4.win-amd64-py2.7.exe - install git - download mesa from git see http://www.mesa3d.org/repository.html - run scons General ------- After building, you can copy the above DLL files to a place in your PATH such as $SystemRoot/SYSTEM32. If you don't like putting things in a system directory, place them in the same directory as the executable(s). Be careful about accidentially overwriting files of the same name in the SYSTEM32 directory. The DLL files are built so that the external entry points use the stdcall calling convention. Static LIB files are not built. The LIB files that are built with are the linker import files associated with the DLL files. The si-glu sources are used to build the GLU libs. This was done mainly to get the better tessellator code. If you have a Windows-related build problem or question, please post to the mesa-dev or mesa-users list.
