Paul Berry 97fc89c6cb i965/msaa: Treat GL_SAMPLES=1 as equivalent to GL_SAMPLES=0.
EXT_framebuffer_multisample is a required subpart of
ARB_framebuffer_object, which means that we must support it even on
platforms that don't support MSAA.  Fortunately
EXT_framebuffer_multisample allows for this by allowing GL_MAX_SAMPLES
to be set to 1.

This leads to a tricky quirk in the GL spec: since
GlRenderbufferStorageMultisamples() accepts any value for its
"samples" parameter up to and including GL_MAX_SAMPLES, that means
that on platforms that don't support MSAA, GL_SAMPLES is allowed to be
set to either 0 or 1.  On platforms that do support MSAA, GL_SAMPLES=1
is not used; 0 means no MSAA, and 2 or higher means MSAA.

In other words, GL_SAMPLES needs to be interpreted as follows:
  =0  no MSAA (possible on all platforms)
  =1  no MSAA (only possible on platforms where MSAA unsupported)
  >1  MSAA (only possible on platforms where MSAA supported)

This patch modifies all MSAA-related code to choose between
multisampling and single-sampling based on the condition (GL_SAMPLES >
1) instead of (GL_SAMPLES > 0) so that GL_SAMPLES=1 will be treated as
"no MSAA".

Note that since GL_SAMPLES=1 implies GL_SAMPLE_BUFFERS=1, we can no
longer use GL_SAMPLE_BUFFERS to distinguish between MSAA and non-MSAA
rendering.

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.
