Ville Syrjala 50a8b9971e gallium/dri: Handle xserver that doesn't send needless DRI2 invalidate events
Ever since xserver commit 531869448d07e00ae241120b59f3aaaa5709d59c,
the server no longer sends invalidate events to clients, unless they
have performed a GetBuffers request since the drawable was last
invalidated.

If the drawable gets invalidated immediately after the GetBuffers
request was processed by the X server, it's possible that Xlib
will process the invalidate event while waiting for the GetBuffers
reply. So the server, thinking the client knows that the buffers
are invalid, is waiting for another GetBuffers request before
sending any more invalidate events. The client, on the other hand,
believes the buffers to be valid, and thus is expecting to receive
another invalidate event before it has to send another GetBuffers
request. The end result is that the client never again sends
a GetBuffers request.

To avoid this problem, take a snapshot of the lastStamp before
doing GetBuffers, and retry if the snapshot and the current
lastStamp no longer match after the GetBuffers reply has been
processed.

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.
