Bas Nieuwenhuizen 7846fa8768 radeonsi: Add offchip buffer address calculation.
Instead of creating a memory area per patch and per vertex, we put
the same attribute of every vertex & patch together. Most loads
and stores access the same attribute across all lanes, only for
different patches and vertices.

For the TCS this results in tightly packed data for 4-component
stores.

For the TES this is not the case as within a patch the loads
often also access the same vertex. However if there are < 4
vertices/patch, this still results in a reduction of the number
of cache lines. In the LDS situation we only do better than worst
case if the data per patch < 64 bytes, which due to the
tessellation factors is pretty much never.

We do not use hardware swizzling for this. It would slightly reduce
the number of executed VALU instructions, but I had issues with
increased wait times that I haven't been able to solve yet.
Furthermore, the tbuffer_store intrinsic does not support both
VGPR offset and an index, so we have a problem storing
indirectly indexed outputs. This can be solved by temporarily
storing arrays in LDS and then copying them, but I don't think
that is worth the effort. The difference in VALU cycles
hardware swizzling gives is about 0.2% of total busy cycles.
That is without handling the array case.

I chose for attributes instead of components as they are often
accessed together, and the software swizzling takes VALU cycles
for calculating offsets.

v2: - Rename functions to get_tcs_tes_buffer_address.
    - multiply by 16 as late as possible.
    - Use  tgsi_full_src_register_from_dst.
    - Remove some bad comments.

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 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.

- install python 2.7
- install scons (latest)
- install mingw, flex, and bison
- install pywin32 from here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs
  get pywin32-218.4.win-amd64-py2.7.exe
- install git
- download mesa from git
  see http://www.mesa3d.org/repository.html
- 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.
