This is necessary because i965 will need to call vbo_bind_array() when cleaning up after a buffer resolve meta-op. Detailed Explanation -------------------- The vbo module tracks vertex attributes separately from the gl_context. Specifically, the vbo module maintins vertex attributes in vbo_exec_context::array::inputs, which is synchronized with gl_context::Array::ArrayObj::VertexAttrib by vbo_bind_array(). vbo_draw_arrays() calls vbo_bind_array() to perform the synchronization before calling the real draw call, vbo_context::draw_arrays. Intel hardware accomplishes buffer resolves with a meta-op. Frequently, that meta-op must be performed within glDraw* in the moment immediately before the draw occurs (The hardware designers hate us...). After performing the meta-op, but before calling vbo_bind_array(), the gl_context's vertex attributes will have been restored to their original state (that is, their state before the meta-op began), but the vbo module's vertex attribute are those used in the last meta-op. Therefore we must manually synchronize the two with vbo_bind_array() before continuing with the original draw command (that is, the one requested with glDraw*). See brw_predraw_resolve_buffers(), which will be added in a future commit. Reviewed-by: Brian Paul <brianp@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Chad Versace <chad@chad-versace.us>
File: docs/README.WIN32 Last updated: 23 April 2011 Quick Start ----- ----- Windows drivers are build with SCons. Makefiles or Visual Studio projects are no longer shipped or supported. Run scons osmesa mesagdi to build classic mesa Windows GDI drivers; or 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. 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.
