<h1>Environment Variables</h1>
<p>
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.
</p>
<H2>LibGL environment variables</H2>
<ul>
<li>LIBGL_DEBUG - If defined debug information will be printed to stderr.
If set to 'verbose' additional information will be printed.
<li>LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH - colon-separated list of paths to search for DRI drivers
<li>LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT - forces an indirect rendering context/connection.
<li>LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE - if set, always use software rendering
<li>LIBGL_NO_DRAWARRAYS - if set do not use DrawArrays GLX protocol (for debugging)
</ul>
<H2>Core Mesa environment variables</H2>
<ul>
<li>MESA_NO_ASM - if set, disables all assembly language optimizations
<li>MESA_NO_MMX - if set, disables Intel MMX optimizations
<li>MESA_NO_3DNOW - if set, disables AMD 3DNow! optimizations
<li>MESA_NO_SSE - if set, disables Intel SSE optimizations
<li>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 occured, and possibly why, will be
printed to stderr.<br>
If the value of MESA_DEBUG is 'FP' floating point arithmetic errors will
generate exceptions.
<li>MESA_TEX_PROG - if set, implement conventional texture env modes with
fragment programs (intended for developers only)
<li>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.
<li>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.
<li>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.
<li>MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE - changes the value returned by
glGetString(GL_VERSION). Valid values are point-separated version numbers,
such as "3.0". Mesa will not really implement all the features of the given
version if it's higher than what's normally reported.
<li>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)
<li>MESA_GLSL - <a href="shading.html#envvars">shading language compiler options</a>
</ul>
<H2>Mesa Xlib driver environment variables</H2>
<p>
The following are only applicable to the Mesa Xlib software driver.
See the <A HREF="xlibdriver.html">Xlib software driver page</A> for details.
</p>
<ul>
<li>MESA_RGB_VISUAL - specifies the X visual and depth for RGB mode
<li>MESA_CI_VISUAL - specifies the X visual and depth for CI mode
<li>MESA_BACK_BUFFER - specifies how to implement the back color buffer,
either "pixmap" or "ximage"
<li>MESA_GAMMA - gamma correction coefficients for red, green, blue channels
<li>MESA_XSYNC - enable synchronous X behavior (for debugging only)
<li>MESA_GLX_FORCE_CI - if set, force GLX to treat 8bpp visuals as CI visuals
<li>MESA_GLX_FORCE_ALPHA - if set, forces RGB windows to have an alpha channel.
<li>MESA_GLX_DEPTH_BITS - specifies default number of bits for depth buffer.
<li>MESA_GLX_ALPHA_BITS - specifies default number of bits for alpha channel.
</ul>
<h2>i945/i965 driver environment variables (non-Gallium)</h2>
<ul>
<li>INTEL_STRICT_CONFORMANCE - if set to 1, enable sw fallbacks to improve
OpenGL conformance. If set to 2, always use software rendering.
<li>INTEL_NO_BLIT - if set, disable hardware-accelerated glBitmap,
glCopyPixels, glDrawPixels.
</ul>
<h2>Radeon driver environment variables (radeon, r200, and r300g)</h2>
<ul>
<li>RADEON_NO_TCL - if set, disable hardware-accelerated Transform/Clip/Lighting.
</ul>
<h2>EGL environment variables</h2>
<p>
Mesa EGL supports different sets of environment variables. See the
<a href="egl.html">Mesa EGL</a> page for the details.
</p>
<h2>Gallium environment variables</h2>
<ul>
<li>GALLIUM_PRINT_OPTIONS - if non-zero, print all the Gallium environment
variables which are used, and their current values.
<li>GALLIUM_NOSSE - if non-zero, do not use SSE runtime code generation for
shader execution
<li>GALLIUM_NOPPC - if non-zero, do not use PPC runtime code generation for
shader execution
<li>GALLIUM_DUMP_CPU - if non-zero, print information about the CPU on start-up
<li>TGSI_PRINT_SANITY - if set, do extra sanity checking on TGSI shaders and
print any errors to stderr.
<LI>DRAW_FSE - ???
<LI>DRAW_NO_FSE - ???
<li>DRAW_USE_LLVM - if set to zero, the draw module will not use LLVM to execute
shaders, vertex fetch, etc.
</ul>
<h3>Softpipe driver environment variables</h3>
<ul>
<li>SOFTPIPE_DUMP_FS - if set, the softpipe driver will print fragment shaders
to stderr
<li>SOFTPIPE_DUMP_GS - if set, the softpipe driver will print geometry shaders
to stderr
<li>SOFTPIPE_NO_RAST - if set, rasterization is no-op'd. For profiling purposes.
<li>SOFTPIPE_USE_LLVM - if set, the softpipe driver will try to use LLVM JIT for
vertex shading procesing.
</ul>
<h3>LLVMpipe driver environment variables</h3>
<ul>
<li>LP_NO_RAST - if set LLVMpipe will no-op rasterization
<li>LP_DEBUG - a comma-separated list of debug options is acceptec. See the
source code for details.
<li>LP_PERF - a comma-separated list of options to selectively no-op various
parts of the driver. See the source code for details.
<li>LP_NUM_THREADS - an integer indicating how many threads to use for rendering.
Zero turns of threading completely. The default value is the number of CPU
cores present.
</ul>
<p>
Other Gallium drivers have their own environment variables. These may change
frequently so the source code should be consulted for details.
