* ralloc: Implement a new ralloc_adopt() API.Kenneth Graunke2015-04-021-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ralloc_adopt() reparents all children from one context to another. Conceptually, ralloc_adopt(new_ctx, old_ctx) behaves like this pseudocode: foreach child of old_ctx: ralloc_steal(new_ctx, child) However, ralloc provides no way to iterate over a memory context's children, and ralloc_adopt does this task more efficiently anyway. One potential use of this is to implement a memory-sweeper pass: first, steal all of a context's memory to a temporary context. Then, walk over anything that should be kept, and ralloc_steal it back to the original context. Finally, free the temporary context. This works when the context is something that can't be freed (i.e. an important structure). Signed-off-by: Kenneth Graunke <[email protected]> Reviewed-by: Jason Ekstrand <[email protected]>
* util: Move ralloc to a new src/util directory.Kenneth Graunke2014-08-041-0/+492
For a long time, we've wanted a place to put utility code which isn't directly tied to Mesa or Gallium internals. This patch creates a new src/util directory for exactly that purpose, and builds the contents as libmesautil.la. ralloc seemed like a good first candidate. These days, it's directly used by mesa/main, i965, i915, and r300g, so keeping it in src/glsl didn't make much sense.
