SSBO loads were using byte_scattered read messages as they allow
reading 16-bit size components. byte_scattered messages can only
operate one component at a time so we needed to emit as many messages
as components.
But for vec2 and vec4 of 16-bit, being multiple of 32-bit we can use the
untyped_surface_read message to read pairs of 16-bit components using only
one message. Once each pair is read it is unshuffled to return the proper
16-bit components. vec3 case is assimilated to vec4 but the 4th component
is ignored.
16-bit scalars are read using one byte_scattered_read message.
v2: Removed use of stride = 2 on sources (Jason Ekstrand)
Rework optimization using unshuffle 16 reads (Chema Casanova)
v3: Use W and D types insead of HF and F in shuffle to avoid rounding
erros (Jason Ekstrand)
Use untyped_surface_read for 16-bit vec3. (Jason Ekstrand)
v4: Use subscript insead of chaging type and stride (Jason Ekstrand)

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 https://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.
