Francisco Jerez 82c90b2da8 gallium/tgsi: Add support for raw resources.
Normal resource access (e.g. the LOAD TGSI opcode) is supposed to
perform a series of conversions to turn the texture data as it's found
in memory into the target data type.

In compute programs it's often the case that we only want to access
the raw bits as they're stored in some buffer object, and any kind of
channel conversion and scaling is harmful or inefficient, especially
in implementations that lack proper hardware support to take care of
it -- in those cases the conversion has to be implemented in software
and it's likely to result in a performance hit even if the pipe_buffer
and declaration data types are set up in a way that would just pass
the data through.

Add a declaration flag that marks a resource as typeless.  No channel
conversion will be performed in that case, and the X coordinate of the
address vector will be interpreted in byte units instead of elements
for obvious reasons.

This is similar to D3D11's ByteAddressBuffer, and will be used to
implement OpenCL's constant arguments.  The remaining four compute
memory spaces can also be understood as raw resources.

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.
