Neil Roberts 7abc1e3286 i965/fs: Don't disable SIMD16 when using the pixel interpolator
There was a comment saying that in SIMD16 mode the pixel interpolator
returns coords interleaved 8 channels at a time and that this requires
extra work to support. However, this interleaved format is exactly
what the PLN instruction requires so I don't think anything needs to
be done to support it apart from removing the line to disable it and
to ensure that the message lengths for the send message are correct.

I am more convinced that this is correct because as it says in the
comment this interleaved output is identical to what is given in the
thread payload. The code generated to apply the plane equation to
these coordinates is identical on SIMD16 and SIMD8 except that the
dispatch width is larger which implies no special unmangling is
needed.

Perhaps the confusion stems from the fact that the description of the
PLN instruction in the IVB PRM seems to imply that the src1 inputs are
not interleaved so it wouldn't work. However, in the HSW and BDW PRMs,
the pseudo-code is different and looks like it expects the interleaved
format. Mesa doesn't seem to generate different code on IVB to
uninterleave the payload registers and everything is working so I can
only assume that the PRM is wrong.

I tested the interpolateAt tests on HSW and did a full Piglit run on
IVB on there were no regressions.

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 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.
