Mesa 5.1 release notes
Month day, 2003
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Even-numbered versions (such as 5.0) designate stable releases.
Odd-numbered versions (such as 5.1) designate new developmental releases.
Bug fixes
---------
See the VERSIONS file for a list of bugs fixed in this release.
New Features in Mesa 5.1
------------------------
New directory tree
The whole Mesa directory tree has been cleaned up and reorganized.
Some old stuff has been abandoned. Lots of non-Unix makefiles will
have to be updated.
For now, autoconf/automake support has been removed. New autoconf/automake
files will added if they meet certain criteria.
GL_ATI_texture_env_combine3 extension
This adds a few new texture combine modes.
Contributed by Ian Romanick.
GL_SGI_texture_color_table
Adds a color table lookup to the RGBA texture path. There's a separate
color table for each texture unit.
Contributed by Eric Plante.
GL_NV_fragment_program
NVIDIA's fragment-level programming feature.
Possible lurking bugs:
- the DDX and DDY commands aren't fully tested
- there may be bugs in the parser
- the TEX and TXP instructions both do perspective correction
- the pack/unpack instructions may not be correct
GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test
This extension adds a scissor-like test for the Z axis. It's used to
optimize stencil-volume shadow algorithms.
GL_NV_light_max_exponent
Lifts the 128 limit for max light exponent.
GL_EXT_texture_rectangle
Identical to GL_NV_texture_rectangle
Build System Changes
--------------------
The "old style" makefile system has been updated:
1. Make-config has been trimmed down to fewer, modern configurations.
2. Most of the bin/mklib.* scripts have been rolled into a new "mklib"
script that works on all sorts of systems. There are probably some
bugs in it, but it's been tested on Linux, SunOS 5.8 and IRIX 6.5.
Improvements/contributes are greatly appreciated.
3. The Makefile.X11 files have been cleaned up in various ways
Source File Changes
-------------------
The mmath.[ch] files are obsolete. Their contents have been moved
into the imports.[ch] and macros.[ch] files.
The files related to vertex and fragment programming have changed.
Old files:
vpexec.[ch]
vpparse.[ch]
vpstate.[ch]
New files:
nvvertprog.h - NV vertex program definitions
nvfragprog.h - NV fragment program definitions
nvvertparse.[ch] - NV vertex program parser
nvfragparse.[ch] - NV fragment program parser
nvprogram.[ch] - NV program API functions
nvvertexec.[ch] - NV vertex program execution
swrast/s_nvfragprog.[ch] - NV fragment program execution
Removed files:
swrast/s_historgram.[ch] - moved into src/histogram.c
Other New files:
bufferobj.[ch] - GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object functions
arbprogram.[ch] - GL_ARB_vertex/fragment_program functions
version.h - defines the Mesa version info
Other Changes
-------------
The ctx->Driver.CreateTexture function has been removed - it wasn't used.
New device driver hook functions:
NewTextureObject - used to allocate struct gl_texture_objects
NewTextureImage - used to allocate struct gl_texture_images
New ctx->Texture._EnabledCoordUnits field:
With the addition of GL_NV_fragment_program we may need to interpolate
various sets of texture coordinates even when the corresponding texture
unit is not enabled. That is, glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_xD) may never get
called but we still may have to interpolate texture coordinates across
triangles so that the fragment program will get them.
This new field indicates which sets of texture coordinates are needed.
If a bit is set in the ctx->Texture._EnabledUnits bitmask is set, the
same bit MUST be set in ctx->Texture._EnabledCoordUnits.
To Do
-----
Add screen-awareness to fakeglx.c
Device Driver Status
--------------------
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of these drivers.
Here's the current status of all included drivers:
Driver Status
---------------------- ---------------------
XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.4
OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.4
FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3
SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3
Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3
Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.4
DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.4
GGI implements OpenGL 1.3
BeOS implements OpenGL 1.4
Allegro needs updating
D3D needs updating
Note: supporting OpenGL 1.4 (vs. 1.3 or 1.2) usually only requires that the
driver call the _mesa_enable_1_4_extensions() function.
