_cogl_framebuffer_flush_state needs to handle the case where
ctx->current_draw_buffer is NULL because this will be set in the
destructor for CoglFramebuffer if the framebuffer being destroyed is
the current framebuffer. This patch just makes it assume all state has

Previously the cost of _cogl_framebuffer_state_flush() would always
scale by the total amount of state tracked by CoglFramebuffer even in
cases where we knew up-front that we only wanted to flush a subset of
the state or in cases where we requested to flush the same framebuffer
multiple times with no changes being made to the framebuffer.
We now track a set of state changed flags with each framebuffer and
track the current read/draw buffers as part of the CoglContext so that
we can quickly bail out when asked to flush the same framebuffer
multiple times with no changes.
_cogl_framebuffer_flush_state() now takes a mask of the state that we
want to flush and the implementation has been redesigned so that the
cost of checking what needs to be flushed and flushing those changes
now scales by how much state we actually plan to update.

This is part of the on-going effort to get rid of the global CoglContext

We added framebuffer methods instead of direct context methods because
the matrix stacks are per-framebuffer and as well as removing the global
CoglContext we would rather aim for a more direct state access API
design than, say, cairo or OpenGL, so we'd like to avoid needing the
cogl_push/pop_framebuffer(). We anticipate that Cogl will mostly be
consumed by middleware graphics layers such as toolkits or game engines
and feel that a more stateless model will avoid impedance mismatches if
higher levels want to expose a stateless model to their developers and
statefullness can still be added by higher levels if really desired.

Cogl keeps a pointer to the last used onscreen framebuffer from the
context to implement the deprecated cogl_set_draw_buffer function
which can take COGL_WINDOW_BUFFER as the target to use the last

pointer. However that was causing a circular reference between the

changes it to just store the pointer and then clear the pointer during
_cogl_onscreen_free as a kind of cheap weak reference.

This adds a --disable-glib configure option that can be used to disable

Actually --disable-glib doesn't strictly disable glib at this point

Currently features are represented as bits in a 32bit mask so we
obviously can't have more than 32 features with that approach. The new
approach is to use the COGL_FLAGS_ macros which lets us handle bitmasks
without a size limit and we change the public api to accept individual
feature enums instead of a mask. This way there is no limit on the
number of features we can add to Cogl.
Instead of using cogl_features_available() there is a new
cogl_has_feature() function and for checking multiple features there is
cogl_has_features() which takes a zero terminated vararg list of
features.
In addition to being able to check for individual features this also
adds a way to query all the features currently available via
cogl_foreach_feature() which will call a callback for each feature.
Since the new functions take an explicit context pointer there is also
no longer any ambiguity over when users can first start to query
features.

When creating new onscreen framebuffers we need to take the
configuration in cogl terms and translate that into a configuration
applicable to any given winsys, e.g. an EGLConfig or a GLXFBConfig

Also when we first create a context we typically have to do a very
similar thing because most OpenGL winsys APIs also associate a
framebuffer config with the context and all future configs need to be
compatible with that.
This patch introduces an internal CoglFramebufferConfig to wrap up some
of the configuration parameters that are common to CoglOnscreenTemplate
and to CoglFramebuffer so we aim to re-use code when dealing with the
above two problems.
This patch also aims to rework the winsys code so it can be more

As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe
CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the
CoglHandle uses relating to textures.
We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to
have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs
towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be
difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs.
The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture
can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any
object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide
roughly these methods:
cogl_texture_get_width
cogl_texture_get_height
cogl_texture_can_repeat
cogl_texture_can_mipmap
cogl_texture_generate_mipmap;
cogl_texture_get_format
cogl_texture_set_region
cogl_texture_get_region
Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types
corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D,
CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and
CoglTexturePixmapX11.
We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types
we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and
CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an
additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta
texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that
virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for
dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a
consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim
here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures
(CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also
enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures
since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently.
The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors
we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer
make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These
will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a
bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth
noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type
specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the
convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to
know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0
we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the
other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory
functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application
performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the
GPU.

This adds an internal function to set the backface culling state on a
pipeline. This includes properties to set the culling mode (front,
back or both) and also to set which face is considered the front
(COGL_WINDING_CLOCKWISE or COGL_WINDING_COUNTER_CLOCKWISE). The actual
front face flushed to GL depends on whether we are rendering to an
offscreen buffer or not. This means that when changing between on- and
off- screen framebuffers it now checks whether the last flushed
pipeline has backface culling enabled and forces a reflush of the cull
face state if so.
The backface culling is now set on a pipeline as part of the legacy
state. This is important because some code in Cogl assumes it can
flush a temporary pipeline to revert to a known state, but previously
this wouldn't disable backface culling so things such as flushing the
clip stack could get confused.

When changing between two framebuffers that have different color masks
it now forces the pipeline to flush the mask by setting
current_pipeline_changes_since_flush. For this to work there needs to
be a common bit of code that gets called when the framebuffers are
changed that has access to both the old framebuffer and the new
framebuffer. _cogl_set_framebuffers_real can't be used for this
because when it is called from cogl_pop_framebuffer the stack entries
have already changed so it can't know the old framebuffer. This patch
adds a new function called notify_buffers_changed which should get
called whenever the buffers are changed and it explicitly gets passed
pointers to the old and new buffers. cogl_pop_framebuffer now calls
this instead of trying to use _cogl_set_framebuffers_real to force a
flush.
This patch also fixes the ctx->window_buffer pointer. Previously this
was implemented by searching in the framebuffer stack for an onscreen
framebuffer whenever the current buffers are changed. However it does
this after the stack has already changed so it won't usually find the

The GL or GLES library is now dynamically loaded by the CoglRenderer
so that it can choose between GL, GLES1 and GLES2 at runtime. The
library is loaded by the renderer because it needs to be done before
calling eglInitialize. There is a new environment variable called
COGL_DRIVER to choose between gl, gles1 or gles2.
The #ifdefs for HAVE_COGL_GL, HAVE_COGL_GLES and HAVE_COGL_GLES2 have
been changed so that they don't assume the ifdefs are mutually
exclusive. They haven't been removed entirely so that it's possible to
compile the GLES backends without the the enums from the GL headers.
When using GLX the winsys additionally dynamically loads libGL because
that also contains the GLX API. It can't be linked in directly because
that would probably conflict with the GLES API if the EGL is
selected. When compiling with EGL support the library links directly
to libEGL because it doesn't contain any GL API so it shouldn't have
any conflicts.
When building for WGL or OSX Cogl still directly links against the GL
API so there is a #define in config.h so that Cogl won't try to dlopen
the library.
Cogl-pango previously had a #ifdef to detect when the GL backend is
used so that it can sneakily pass GL_QUADS to
cogl_vertex_buffer_draw. This is now changed so that it queries the
CoglContext for the backend. However to get this to work Cogl now
needs to export the _cogl_context_get_default symbol and cogl-pango
needs some extra -I flags to so that it can include
cogl-context-private.h
cogl-ext-functions.h now contains definitions for all of the core GL
and GLES functions that we would normally link to directly. All of the
code has changed to access them through the cogl context pointer. The
GE macro now takes an extra parameter to specify the context because
the macro itself needs to make GL calls but various points in the Cogl
source use different names for the context variable.
Instead of storing all of the feature function pointers in the driver
specific data of the CoglContext they are now all stored directly in
CoglContext. There is a single header containing the description of
the functions which gets included by cogl-context.h. There is a single
function in cogl-feature-private.c to check for all of these
functions.
The name of the function pointer variables have been changed from
ctx->drv.pf_glWhatever to just ctx->glWhatever.
The feature flags that get set when an extension is available are now
separated from the table of extensions. This is necessary because
different extensions can mean different things on GLES and GL. For
example, having access to glMapBuffer implies read and write support
on GL but only write support on GLES. The flags are instead set in the
driver specific init function by checking whether the function
pointers were successfully resolved.
_cogl_feature_check has been changed to assume the feature is
supported if any of the listed extensions are available instead of
requiring all of them. This makes it more convenient to specify
alternate names for the extension. Nothing else had previously listed
more than one name for an extension so this shouldn't cause any
problems.

Instead of the stub winsys being a special case set of #ifdef'd code
used when COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS wasn't defined, the stub winsys now
implements a CoglWinsysVtable like all other winsys backends (it's just
that everything is a NOP). This way we can get rid of the
COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS define and also the stub winsys can be runtime
selected whereas before it was incompatible with all other winsys
backends.
This validates that the viewport width and height arguments are positive
values in _cogl_framebuffer_set_viewport. In addition, just before
calling glViewport we also assert that something else hasn't gone amiss
and that the internal viewport width/height values we track are still
positive before passing to glViewport which generates an error for
negative values.
With GLES 1, frame buffers are a optional extensions. We need to make
sure the pointer exist before calling the function and do that by just
checkout the corresponding feature.
When freeing a framebuffer stack it's possible to have entries with NULL
draw or read buffers so we should check that before calling
cogl_onscreen/offscreen_free. This fixes a crash with the wayland
backend when running conformance tests such as cogl-test-object which
never push a framebuffer.
Some of the virtual functions in CoglWinsysVtable only need to be
implemented for specific backends or when a specific feature is
advertised. This splits the vtable struct into two commented sections
marking which are optional and which are required. Wherever an
optional function is used there is now a g_return_if_fail to ensure
there is an implementation.
If a foreign xid has been set on a CoglOnscreen then
cogl_onscreen_x11_get_window_xid doesn't need to defer to the winsys to
get the underlying window xid. This also means it's possible to read
back the xid before the framebuffer is allocated which fixes a crash in
the x11-foreign example app.
