Using bit replication. This path now resembles something which might make sense. (The logic was mostly copied from llvmpipe fs backend.) I am not convinced though it is actually faster than SoA sampling (actually I'm quite certain it's always a loss with AVX). With SoA it's just shift/mask/cvt/mul for getting the colors, whereas there's still roughly 3 shifts, 3 or/and per channel for AoS (i.e. for SoA it's exactly the same as it would be for a rgba8 format, whereas the extra effort for AoS is significant). The filtering might still be faster (albeit with FMA the instruction count gets down quite a bit there on the SoA float filtering path on new cpus). And those small unorm formats often don't have an alpha channel (which makes things worse relatively for AoS path). (This also fixes a trivial bug in the llvmpipe fs code this was derived from, albeit it was only relevant for 4-bit channels.) Reviewed-by: Jose Fonseca <jfonseca@vmware.com>
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.
