Paul Berry ebcdaa7bbc i965/gs: implement EndPrimitive() functionality in the visitor.
According to GLSL, the shader may call EndPrimitive() at any point
during its execution, causing the line or triangle strip currently
being output to be terminated and a new strip to be begun.

This is implemented in gen7 hardware by using one control data bit per
vertex, to indicate whether EndPrimitive() was called after that
vertex was emitted.

In order to make this work without sacrificing too much efficiency, we
accumulate 32 control data bits at a time in a GRF.  When we have
accumulated 32 bits (or when the shader terminates), we output them to
the appropriate DWORD in the control data header and reset the
accumulator to 0.

We have to take special care to make sure that EndPrimitive() calls
that occur prior to the first vertex have no effect.

Since geometry shaders that output a large number of vertices are
likely to be rare, an optimization kicks in if max_vertices <= 32.  In
this case, we know that we can wait until the end of shader execution
before any control data bits need to be output.

I've tried to write the code in such a way that in the future, we can
easily adapt it to output stream ID bits (which are two bits/vertex
instead of one).

Fixes piglit tests "spec/glsl-1.50/glsl-1.50-geometry-end-primitive *".

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.
