Roland Scheidegger 81cfcdbd87 gallivm: don't calculate square root of rho if we use accurate rho method
While a sqrt here and there shouldn't hurt much (depending on the cpu) it is
possible to completely omit it since rho is only used for calculating lod and
there log2(x) == 0.5*log2(x^2). Depending on the exact path taken for
calculating lod this means we get a simple mul instead of sqrt (in case of
nearest mip filter in fact we don't need to replace the sqrt with something
else at all), only in some not very useful path this doesn't work (combined
brilinear calculation of int level and fractional lod, accurate rho calc but
brilinear filtering seems odd).
Apart from being faster as an added bonus this should increase our crappy
fractional accuracy of lod, since fast_log2 is only good for ~3bits and this
should increase accuracy by one bit (though not used if dimension is just one
as we'd need an extra mul there as we never had the squared rho in the first
place).

v2: use separate ilog2_sqrt function if we have squared rho.

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.
