- fragment shader TGSI translation
- same level of support as the TGSI SSE2 exec machine, with the exception
- code generate stipple and stencil testing
- - translate the remaining bits of texture sampling state
-
- translate TGSI control flow instructions, and all other remaining opcodes
- integrate with the draw module for VS code generation
Requirements
============
- - Linux
+ - A x86 or amd64 processor. 64bit mode is preferred.
- - udis86, http://udis86.sourceforge.net/ . Use my repository, which decodes
- opcodes not yet supported by upstream.
+ Support for sse2 is strongly encouraged. Support for ssse3, and sse4.1 will
+ yield the most efficient code. The less features the CPU has the more
+ likely is that you ran into underperforming, buggy, or incomplete code.
+
+ See /proc/cpuinfo to know what your CPU supports.
- git clone git://people.freedesktop.org/~jrfonseca/udis86

Building

- scons debug=yes statetrackers=mesa drivers=llvmpipe winsys=xlib dri=false -k
+ scons debug=yes statetrackers=mesa drivers=llvmpipe winsys=xlib dri=false
Alternatively, you can build it with GNU make, if you prefer, by invoking it as
but the rest of these instructions assume that scons is used.
+For windows is everything the except except the winsys:
+
+ scons debug=yes statetrackers=mesa drivers=llvmpipe winsys=gdi dri=false

For performance evaluation pass debug=no to scons, and use the corresponding
lib directory without the "-debug" suffix.

Unit testing
============
then skim through the lp_bld_* functions called in there, and the comments
at the top of the lp_bld_*.c functions.
-- All lp_bld_*.[ch] are isolated from the rest of the driver, and could/may be
- put in a stand-alone Gallium state -> LLVM IR translation module.
+- The driver-independent parts of the LLVM / Gallium code are found in
+ src/gallium/auxiliary/gallivm/. The filenames and function prefixes
+ need to be renamed from "lp_bld_" to something else though.
- We use LLVM-C bindings for now. They are not documented, but follow the C++
interfaces very closely, and appear to be complete enough for code
generation. See
http://npcontemplation.blogspot.com/2008/06/secret-of-llvm-c-bindings.html
for a stand-alone example.
+ See the llvm-c/Core.h file for reference.
