Looking at Lightsmark's shaders, the way we used MRFs (or in gen7's
case, GRFs) was bad in a couple of ways. One was that it prevented
compute-to-MRF for the common case of a texcoord that gets used
exactly once, but where the texcoord setup all gets emitted before the
texture calls (such as when it's a bare fragment shader input, which
gets interpolated before processing main()). Another was that it
introduced a bunch of dependencies that constrained scheduling, and
forced waits for texture operations to be done before they are
required. For example, we can now move the compute-to-MRF
interpolation for the second texture send down after the first send.
The downside is that this generally prevents
remove_duplicate_mrf_writes() from doing anything, whereas previously
it avoided work for the case of sampling from the same texcoord twice.
However, I suspect that most of the win that originally justified that
code was in avoiding the WAR stall on the first send, which this patch
also avoids, rather than the small cost of the extra instruction. We
see instruction count regressions in shaders in unigine, yofrankie,
savage2, hon, and gstreamer.
Improves GLB2.7 performance by 0.633628% +/- 0.491809% (n=121/125, avg of
~66fps, outliers below 61 dropped).
Improves openarena performance by 1.01092% +/- 0.66897% (n=425).
No significant difference on Lightsmark (n=44).
v2: Squash in the fix for register unspilling for send-from-GRF, fixing a
segfault in lightsmark.

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 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. Recipe ------ Building on windows requires several open-source packages. These are steps that work as of this writing. 1) install python 2.7 2) install scons (latest) 3) install mingw, flex, and bison 4) install libxml2 from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs get libxml2-python-2.9.1.win-amd64-py2.7.exe 5) install pywin32 from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs get pywin32-218.4.win-amd64-py2.7.exe 6) install git 7) download mesa from git see http://www.mesa3d.org/repository.html 8) 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.
