+ Gallium supports clearing both render targets and depth/stencil with a single call
-draw_range_elements
- + Gallium supports indexed draw with explicit range
-
fence_signalled
fence_finish
+ D3D10/D3D11 don't appear to support explicit fencing; queries can often substitute though, and flushing is supported
+ Gallium has per-face writemask/valuemasks, D3D11 uses the same value for back and front
+ Gallium supports the alpha test, which D3D11 lacks
-CreateDepthStencilView -> get_tex_surface
-CreateRenderTargetView -> get_tex_surface
+CreateDepthStencilView -> create_surface
+CreateRenderTargetView -> create_surface
! Gallium merges depthstencil and rendertarget views into pipe_surface, which also doubles as a 2D surface abstraction
- lack of texture array support
- lack of render-to-buffer support
! D3D11 specifies mapping flags (i.e. read/write/discard);:it's unclear what they are used for here
- D3D11 supports odd things in the D3D10_DDI_RESOURCE_MISC_FLAG enum (D3D10_DDI_RESOURCE_MISC_DISCARD_ON_PRESENT, D3D11_DDI_RESOURCE_MISC_BUFFER_ALLOW_RAW_VIEWS, D3D11_DDI_RESOURCE_MISC_BUFFER_STRUCTURED)
- Gallium does not support indirect draw call parameter buffers
- - Gallium lacks array textures
! D3D11 supports specifying hardware modes and other stuff here for scanout resources
+ Gallium allows specifying minimum buffer alignment
! D3D11 implements cube maps as 2D array textures

- Gallium does not support hull shaders
-IaSetIndexBuffer
- ! Gallium passes this to the draw_elements or draw_elements_instanced calls
+IaSetIndexBuffer -> set_index_buffer
+ Gallium supports 8-bit indices
- ! the D3D11 interface allows index-size-unaligned byte offsets into index buffers; it's not clear whether they actually work
+ # the D3D11 interface allows index-size-unaligned byte offsets into the index buffer; most drivers will abort with an assertion
IaSetInputLayout -> bind_vertex_elements_state
+ Gallium supports line loops, triangle fans, quads, quad strips and polygons
IaSetVertexBuffers -> set_vertex_buffers
- + Gallium allows to specify a max_index here
- Gallium only allows setting all vertex buffers at once, while D3D11 supports setting a subset
OpenResource -> texture_from_handle
