Subject: i965: Avoid calloc/free in the CURBE upload process.
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=503eb57a003f51c25687e9cf0ad6f7939a757f1b;p=mesa.git

i965: Avoid calloc/free in the CURBE upload process.

In exchange we end up with an extra memcpy, but that seems better than
calloc/free.  Each buffer is 4k maximum, and on the i965-streaming
branch this allocation was showing up as the top entry in
brw_validate_state profiling for cairo-gl.
