Kenneth Graunke de7ad2c88f i965: Accurately bail on SIMD16 compiles.
Ideally, we'd like to never even attempt the SIMD16 compile if we could
know ahead of time that it won't succeed---it's purely a waste of time.
This is especially important for state-based recompiles, which happen at
draw time.

The fragment shader compiler has a number of checks like:

   if (dispatch_width == 16)
      fail("...some reason...");

This patch introduces a new no16() function which replaces the above
pattern.  In the SIMD8 compile, it sets a "SIMD16 will never work" flag.
Then, brw_wm_fs_emit can check that flag, skip the SIMD16 compile, and
issue a helpful performance warning if INTEL_DEBUG=perf is set.  (In
SIMD16 mode, no16() calls fail(), for safety's sake.)

The great part is that this is not a heuristic---if the flag is set, we
know with 100% certainty that the SIMD16 compile would fail.  (It might
fail anyway if we run out of registers, but it's always worth trying.)

v2: Fix missing va_end in early-return case (caught by Ilia Mirkin).

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.
