Paul Berry ef9142d4a3 i965/gen7+: Disable fast color clears on shared regions.
In certain circumstances the memory region underlying a miptree is
shared with other miptrees, or with other code outside Mesa's control.
This happens, for instance, when an extension like GL_OES_EGL_image or
GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension is used to associate a miptree
with an image existing outside of Mesa.

When this happens, we need to disable fast color clears on the miptree
in question, since there's no good synchronization mechanism to ensure
that deferred clear writes get performed by the time the buffer is
examined from the other miptree, or from outside of Mesa.

Fortunately, this should not be a performance hit for most
applications, since most applications that use these extensions use
them for importing textures into Mesa, rather than for exporting
rendered images out of Mesa.  So most of the time the miptrees
involved will never experience a clear.

v2: Rework based on the fact that we have decided not to use an
accessor function to protect access to the region.

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.
