docs: convert articles to reructuredtext
This uses the previously added scripts to convert the documentation to reStructuredText, which is both easier to read offline, and can be used to generate modern HTML for online documentation. No modification to the generated results have been done. Acked-by: Eric Engestrom <[email protected]> Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/4630>

+Environment Variables
+=====================
+
+Normally, no environment variables need to be set. Most of the
+environment variables used by Mesa/Gallium are for debugging purposes,
+but they can sometimes be useful for debugging end-user issues.
+
+LibGL environment variables
+---------------------------
+
+``LIBGL_DEBUG``
+ If defined debug information will be printed to stderr. If set to
+ ``verbose`` additional information will be printed.
+``LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH``
+ colon-separated list of paths to search for DRI drivers
+``LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT``
+ if set to ``true``, forces an indirect rendering context/connection.
+``LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE``
+ if set to ``true``, always use software rendering
+``LIBGL_NO_DRAWARRAYS``
+ if set to ``true``, do not use DrawArrays GLX protocol (for
+ debugging)
+``LIBGL_SHOW_FPS``
+ print framerate to stdout based on the number of ``glXSwapBuffers``
+ calls per second.
+``LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE``
+ disable DRI3 if set to ``true``.
+
+Core Mesa environment variables
+-------------------------------
+
+``MESA_NO_ASM``
+ if set, disables all assembly language optimizations
+``MESA_NO_MMX``
+ if set, disables Intel MMX optimizations
+``MESA_NO_3DNOW``
+ if set, disables AMD 3DNow! optimizations
+``MESA_NO_SSE``
+ if set, disables Intel SSE optimizations
+``MESA_NO_ERROR``
+ if set to 1, error checking is disabled as per ``KHR_no_error``. This
+ will result in undefined behaviour for invalid use of the api, but
+ can reduce CPU use for apps that are known to be error free.
+``MESA_DEBUG``
+ if set, error messages are printed to stderr. For example, if the
+ application generates a ``GL_INVALID_ENUM`` error, a corresponding
+ error message indicating where the error occurred, and possibly why,
+ will be printed to stderr. For release builds, ``MESA_DEBUG``
+ defaults to off (no debug output). ``MESA_DEBUG`` accepts the
+ following comma-separated list of named flags, which adds extra
+ behaviour to just set ``MESA_DEBUG=1``:
+
+ ``silent``
+ turn off debug messages. Only useful for debug builds.
+ ``flush``
+ flush after each drawing command
+ ``incomplete_tex``
+ extra debug messages when a texture is incomplete
+ ``incomplete_fbo``
+ extra debug messages when a fbo is incomplete
+ ``context``
+ create a debug context (see ``GLX_CONTEXT_DEBUG_BIT_ARB``) and
+ print error and performance messages to stderr (or
+ ``MESA_LOG_FILE``).
+
+``MESA_LOG_FILE``
+ specifies a file name for logging all errors, warnings, etc., rather
+ than stderr
+``MESA_TEX_PROG``
+ if set, implement conventional texture env modes with fragment
+ programs (intended for developers only)
+``MESA_TNL_PROG``
+ if set, implement conventional vertex transformation operations with
+ vertex programs (intended for developers only). Setting this variable
+ automatically sets the ``MESA_TEX_PROG`` variable as well.
+``MESA_EXTENSION_OVERRIDE``
+ can be used to enable/disable extensions. A value such as
+ ``GL_EXT_foo -GL_EXT_bar`` will enable the ``GL_EXT_foo`` extension
+ and disable the ``GL_EXT_bar`` extension.
+``MESA_EXTENSION_MAX_YEAR``
+ The ``GL_EXTENSIONS`` string returned by Mesa is sorted by extension
+ year. If this variable is set to year X, only extensions defined on
+ or before year X will be reported. This is to work-around a bug in
+ some games where the extension string is copied into a fixed-size
+ buffer without truncating. If the extension string is too long, the
+ buffer overrun can cause the game to crash. This is a work-around for
+ that.
+``MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE``
+ changes the value returned by ``glGetString(GL_VERSION)`` and
+ possibly the GL API type.
+
+ - The format should be ``MAJOR.MINOR[FC|COMPAT]``
+ - ``FC`` is an optional suffix that indicates a forward compatible
+ context. This is only valid for versions >= 3.0.
+ - ``COMPAT`` is an optional suffix that indicates a compatibility
+ context or ``GL_ARB_compatibility`` support. This is only valid
+ for versions >= 3.1.
+ - GL versions <= 3.0 are set to a compatibility (non-Core) profile
+ - GL versions = 3.1, depending on the driver, it may or may not have
+ the ``ARB_compatibility`` extension enabled.
+ - GL versions >= 3.2 are set to a Core profile
+ - Examples:
+
+ ``2.1``
+ select a compatibility (non-Core) profile with GL version 2.1.
+ ``3.0``
+ select a compatibility (non-Core) profile with GL version 3.0.
+ ``3.0FC``
+ select a Core+Forward Compatible profile with GL version 3.0.
+ ``3.1``
+ select GL version 3.1 with ``GL_ARB_compatibility`` enabled per
+ the driver default.
+ ``3.1FC``
+ select GL version 3.1 with forward compatibility and
+ ``GL_ARB_compatibility`` disabled.
+ ``3.1COMPAT``
+ select GL version 3.1 with ``GL_ARB_compatibility`` enabled.
+ ``X.Y``
+ override GL version to X.Y without changing the profile.
+ ``X.YFC``
+ select a Core+Forward Compatible profile with GL version X.Y.
+ ``X.YCOMPAT``
+ select a Compatibility profile with GL version X.Y.
+
+ - Mesa may not really implement all the features of the given
+ version. (for developers only)
+
+``MESA_GLES_VERSION_OVERRIDE``
+ changes the value returned by ``glGetString(GL_VERSION)`` for OpenGL
+ ES.
+
+ - The format should be ``MAJOR.MINOR``
+ - Examples: ``2.0``, ``3.0``, ``3.1``
+ - Mesa may not really implement all the features of the given
+ version. (for developers only)
+
+``MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE``
+ changes the value returned by
+ ``glGetString(GL_SHADING_LANGUAGE_VERSION)``. Valid values are
+ integers, such as ``130``. Mesa will not really implement all the
+ features of the given language version if it's higher than what's
+ normally reported. (for developers only)
+``MESA_GLSL_CACHE_DISABLE``
+ if set to ``true``, disables the GLSL shader cache
+``MESA_GLSL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE``
+ if set, determines the maximum size of the on-disk cache of compiled
+ GLSL programs. Should be set to a number optionally followed by
+ ``K``, ``M``, or ``G`` to specify a size in kilobytes, megabytes, or
+ gigabytes. By default, gigabytes will be assumed. And if unset, a
+ maximum size of 1GB will be used. Note: A separate cache might be
+ created for each architecture that Mesa is installed for on your
+ system. For example under the default settings you may end up with a
+ 1GB cache for x86_64 and another 1GB cache for i386.
+``MESA_GLSL_CACHE_DIR``
+ if set, determines the directory to be used for the on-disk cache of
+ compiled GLSL programs. If this variable is not set, then the cache
+ will be stored in ``$XDG_CACHE_HOME/mesa_shader_cache`` (if that
+ variable is set), or else within ``.cache/mesa_shader_cache`` within
+ the user's home directory.
+``MESA_GLSL``
+ `shading language compiler options <shading.html#envvars>`__
+``MESA_NO_MINMAX_CACHE``
+ when set, the minmax index cache is globally disabled.
+``MESA_SHADER_CAPTURE_PATH``
+ see `Capturing Shaders <shading.html#capture>`__
+``MESA_SHADER_DUMP_PATH`` and ``MESA_SHADER_READ_PATH``
+ see `Experimenting with Shader
+ Replacements <shading.html#replacement>`__
+``MESA_VK_VERSION_OVERRIDE``
+ changes the Vulkan physical device version as returned in
+ ``VkPhysicalDeviceProperties::apiVersion``.
+
+ - The format should be ``MAJOR.MINOR[.PATCH]``
+ - This will not let you force a version higher than the driver's
+ instance version as advertised by ``vkEnumerateInstanceVersion``
+ - This can be very useful for debugging but some features may not be
+ implemented correctly. (For developers only)
+
+NIR passes enviroment variables
+-------------------------------
+
+The following are only applicable for drivers that uses NIR, as they
+modify the behaviour for the common NIR_PASS and NIR_PASS_V macros, that
+wrap calls to NIR lowering/optimizations.
+
+``NIR_PRINT``
+ If defined, the resulting NIR shader will be printed out at each
+ succesful NIR lowering/optimization call.
+``NIR_TEST_CLONE``
+ If defined, cloning a NIR shader would be tested at each succesful
+ NIR lowering/optimization call.
+``NIR_TEST_SERIALIZE``
+ If defined, serialize and deserialize a NIR shader would be tested at
+ each succesful NIR lowering/optimization call.
