Francisco Jerez a8ac0bd759 intel/fs/gen12: Workaround unwanted SEND execution due to broken NoMask control flow.
This is a less invasive alternative to the workaround documented in
the hardware spec for GEN:BUG:1407528679, which doesn't involve
disabling structured control flow (it's unlikely that switching to
GOTO/JOIN would have actually fixed the problem anyway).

Under some conditions Gen12 hardware can end up executing a BB with
all channels disabled, which will lead to the execution of any NoMask
instructions in it, even though any execution-masked instructions will
be correctly shot down.  This may break assumptions of some NoMask
SEND messages whose descriptor depends on data generated by live
invocations of the shader.

This avoids the problem by predicating certain instructions on an ANY
horizontal predicate that makes sure that their execution is omitted
when all channels of the program are disabled.  The shader-db impact
of this patch seems to be minimal:

total instructions in shared programs: 17169833 -> 17169913 (0.00%)
instructions in affected programs: 30663 -> 30743 (0.26%)
helped: 0
HURT: 42

total cycles in shared programs: 336966176 -> 336968568 (0.00%)
cycles in affected programs: 2367290 -> 2369682 (0.10%)
helped: 0
HURT: 13

Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.html
<https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.html <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ meson ..
  $ sudo ninja install


Support
-------

Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is
appropriate, you should ask your question on `Freenode's #dri-devel
<irc://chat.freenode.net#dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your
question, check out `Who's Who on IRC
<https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_.

The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the
mailing lists: `mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org
