17 <h1>Mesa source code tree overview
</h1>
20 This is a brief summary of Mesa's directory tree and what's contained in
26 <li><b>docs
</b> - Documentation
27 <li><b>include
</b> - Public OpenGL header files
30 <li><b>compiler
</b> - Common utility sources for different compilers.
32 <li><b>glsl
</b> - the GLSL IR and compiler
33 <li><b>nir
</b> - the NIR IR and compiler
34 <li><b>spirv
</b> - the SPIR-V compiler
36 <li><b>egl
</b> - EGL library sources
38 <li><b>drivers
</b> - EGL drivers
39 <li><b>main
</b> - main EGL library implementation. This is where all
40 the EGL API functions are implemented, like eglCreateContext().
42 <li><b>mapi
</b> - Mesa APIs
43 <li><b>glapi
</b> - OpenGL API dispatch layer. This is where all the
44 GL entrypoints like glClear, glBegin, etc. are generated, as well as
45 the GL dispatch table. All GL function calls jump through the
46 dispatch table to functions found in main/.
47 <li><b>mesa
</b> - Main Mesa sources
49 <li><b>main
</b> - The core Mesa code (mainly state management)
50 <li><b>drivers
</b> - Mesa drivers (not used with Gallium)
52 <li><b>common
</b> - code which may be shared by all drivers
53 <li><b>dri
</b> - Direct Rendering Infrastructure drivers
55 <li><b>common
</b> - code shared by all DRI drivers
56 <li><b>i915
</b> - driver for Intel i915/i945
57 <li><b>i965
</b> - driver for Intel i965
58 <li><b>radeon
</b> - driver for ATI R100
59 <li><b>r200
</b> - driver for ATI R200
62 <li><b>x11
</b> - Xlib-based software driver
63 <li><b>osmesa
</b> - off-screen software driver
66 <li><b>math
</b> - vertex array translation and transformation code
67 (not used with Gallium)
68 <li><b>program
</b> - Vertex/fragment shader and GLSL compiler code
69 <li><b>sparc
</b> - Assembly code/optimizations for SPARC systems
70 (not used with Gallium)
71 <li><b>state_tracker
</b> - State tracker / driver for Gallium. This
72 is basically a Mesa device driver that speaks to Gallium. This
73 directory may be moved to src/mesa/drivers/gallium at some point.
74 <li><b>swrast
</b> - Software rasterization module. For drawing points,
75 lines, triangles, bitmaps, images, etc. in software.
76 (not used with Gallium)
77 <li><b>swrast_setup
</b> - Software primitive setup. Does things like
78 polygon culling, glPolygonMode, polygon offset, etc.
79 (not used with Gallium)
80 <li><b>tnl
</b> - Software vertex Transformation 'n Lighting.
81 (not used with Gallium)
82 <li><b>tnl_dd
</b> - TNL code for device drivers.
83 (not used with Gallium)
84 <li><b>vbo
</b> - Vertex Buffer Object code. All drawing with
85 glBegin/glEnd, glDrawArrays, display lists, etc. goes through this
86 module. The results is a well-defined set of vertex arrays which
87 are passed to the device driver (or tnl module) for rendering.
88 <li><b>x86
