Chad Versace 6a5c86f486 i965/gen6/blorp: Set need_workaround_flush at top of blorp
Unconditionally set brw->need_workaround_flush at the top of gen6 blorp
state emission.

The art of emitting workaround flushes on Sandybridge is mysterious and
not fully understood. Ken and I believe that
intel_emit_post_sync_nonzero_flush() may be required when switching from
regular drawing to blorp.  This is an extra safety measure to prevent
undiscovered difficult-to-diagnose gpu hangs.

I verified that on ChromeOS, pre-patch, need_workaround_flush was not
set at the top of blorp, as Paul expected. To verify, I inserted the
following debug code at the top of gen6_blorp_exec(), restarted the ui,
and inspected the logs in /var/log/ui. The abort gets triggered so early
that the browser never appears on the display.

    static void
    gen6_blorp_exec(...)
    {
        if (!brw->need_workaround_flush) {
            fprintf(stderr, "chadv: %s:%d\n", __FILE__, __LINE__);
            abort();
        }
        ...
    }

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.
