This significantly improves our handling of VGRFs of size > 1.
Previously, we only marked VGRFs as def'd if the whole register was
written by a single instruction. Large VGRFs which were written
piecemeal would not be considered def'd at all, even if they were
ultimately completely written.
Without being def'd, these were then marked "live in" to the basic
block, often extending the range to preceding blocks and sometimes
even the start of the program.
The new per-component tracking gives more accurate live intervals,
which makes register coalescing more effective.
In the future, this should help with texturing from GRFs on Gen7+.
A sampler message might be represented by a 2-register VGRF which
holds the texture coordinates. If those are incoming varyings,
they'll be produced by two PLN instructions, which are piecemeal writes.
No reduction in shader-db instruction counts. However, code which
prints the live interval ranges does show that some VGRFs now have
smaller (and more correct) live intervals.
v2: Rebase on current send-from-GRF code requiring adding extra use[]s.
v3: Rebase on live intervals fix to include defs in the end of the
interval.
v4 (Kenneth Graunke): Rebase; split off a few preparatory patches;
add lots of comments; minor style changes; rewrite commit message.
v5 (Eric Anholt): whitespace nit.

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.
