The GL3 context is created using the glXCreateContextAttribs function
which is part of the GLX_ARB_create_context extension. However
previously the function pointers from GLX extensions were only
retrieved once the GL context is created. That meant that the GL3
context creation function would always assume that the extension is
not supported so it would always fail.
This patch changes it to query the functions when the renderer is set
up instead. The base winsys feature flags that are determined while
querying the functions are stored in a member of CoglGLXRenderer.
These are then copied to the CoglContext when it is initialised.
The spec for glXGetProcAddress says that the functions returned are
context-independent. That implies that it is safe to call it without
binding a context although that is not explicitly stated as far as I
can tell. A big of googling finds this DRI documentation which says it
can be used without a context:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/glXGetProcAddressNeverReturnsNULL
And also this code sample:
http://www.opengl.org/wiki/Tutorial:_OpenGL_3.0_Context_Creation_%28GLX%29
One point that makes me concerned that this might not always work in
practice is that the code in SDL2 to create a GL3 context first
creates a dummy GL2 context in order to have something bound before it
calls glXGetProcAddress. I think this may just be a misunderstanding
based on how wglGetProcAddress works however.

Consistent with how we lazily allocate framebuffers this patch allows us
to instantiate textures but still specify constraints and requirements
before allocating storage so that we can be sure to allocate the most
appropriate/efficient storage.
This adds a cogl_texture_allocate() function that is analogous to
cogl_framebuffer_allocate() which can optionally be called to explicitly
allocate storage and catch any errors. If this function isn't used
explicitly then Cogl will implicitly ensure textures are allocated
before the storage is needed.
It is generally recommended to rely on lazy storage allocation or at
least perform explicit allocation as late as possible so Cogl can be
fully informed about the best way to allocate storage.

This adds a new CoglDriver for GL 3 called COGL_DRIVER_GL3. When
requested, the GLX, EGL and SDL2 winsyss will set the necessary
attributes to request a forward-compatible core profile 3.1 context.
That means it will have no deprecated features.
To simplify the explosion of checks for specific combinations of
context->driver, many of these conditionals have now been replaced
with private feature flags that are checked instead. The GL and GLES
drivers now initialise these private feature flags depending on which
driver is used.
The fixed function backends now explicitly check whether the fixed
function private feature is available which means the GL3 driver will
fall back to always using the GLSL progend. Since Rob's latest patches
the GLSL progend no longer uses any fixed function API anyway so it
should just work.
The driver is currently lower priority than COGL_DRIVER_GL so it will
not be used unless it is specificly requested. We may want to change
this priority at some point because apparently Mesa can make some
memory savings if a core profile context is used.
In GL 3, getting the combined extensions string with glGetString is
deprecated so this patch changes it to use glGetStringi to build up an
array of extensions instead. _cogl_context_get_gl_extensions now
returns this array instead of trying to return a const string. The
caller is expected to free the array.
Some issues with this patch:
• GL 3 does not support GL_ALPHA format textures. We should probably
make this a feature flag or something. Cogl uses this to render text
which currently just throws a GL error and breaks so it's pretty
important to do something about this before considering the GL3
driver to be stable.
• GL 3 doesn't support client side vertex buffers. This probably
doesn't matter because CoglBuffer won't normally use malloc'd
buffers if VBOs are available, but it might but worth making
malloc'd buffers a private feature and forcing it not to use them.
• GL 3 doesn't support the default vertex array object. This patch
just makes it create and bind a single non-default vertex array
object which gets used just like the normal default object. Ideally
it would be good to use vertex array objects properly and attach
them to a CoglPrimitive to cache the state.

Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib
api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced
cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis.
One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API
is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib
API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl.
This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors
which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly. If Cogl
is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely
assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood.
This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as
an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error
and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common
cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error
and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting
themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent
with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if
they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies
in this case)
Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard
GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn
developers that are used to using the GError api.

Note: Since we can't change the Cogl 1.x api the patch was changed to
not rename _error_quark() functions to be _error_domain() functions and
although it's a bit ugly, instead of providing our own CoglError type
that's compatible with GError we simply #define CoglError to GError
unless Cogl is built with glib disabled.
Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops
the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the
CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we
are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl
API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be
able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of
cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility
source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for
compatibility too.
Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14
branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs
have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which
understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of
CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use
gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not
well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't
aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors.
(GnomeShell only makes very-very minimal use of Cogl via the gjs
bindings for the cogl_rectangle and cogl_color apis.)
The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch
even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very
awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.
glBlitFramebuffer is affected by the scissor so we need to ensure
there is an empty clip flushed before using it. This is similar to

According to the EGL spec, eglGetProcAddress should only be used to
retrieve extension functions. It also says that returning non-NULL
does not mean the extension is available so you could interpret this
as saying that the function is allowed to return garbage for core
functions. This seems to happen at least for the Android
implementation of EGL.
To workaround this the winsys's are now passed down a flag to say
whether the function is from the core API. This information is already
in the gl-prototypes headers as the minimum core GL version and as a
pair of flags to specify whether it is available in core GLES1 and
GLES2. If the function is in core the EGL winsys will now avoid using
eglGetProcAddress and always fallback to querying the library directly
with the GModule API.
The GLX winsys is left alone because glXGetProcAddress apparently
supports querying core API and extension functions.
The WGL winsys could ideally be changed because wglGetProcAddress
should also only be used for extension functions but the situation is
slightly different because WGL considers anything from GL > 1.1 to be
an extension so it would need a bit more information to determine
whether to query the function directly from the library.
The SDL winsys is also left alone because it's not as easy to portably
determine which GL library SDL has chosen to load in order to resolve
the symbols directly.

us over to using the standard c99 equivalents instead so we can further

Since the original patch was done after removing deprecated API
this back ported patch doesn't affect deprecated API and so
actually this cherry-pick doesn't remove all remaining use of
CoglHandle as it did for the master branch of Cogl.
This option to GCC makes it give a warning whenever a global function
is defined without a declaration. This should catch cases were we've
defined a function but forgot to put it in a header. In that case it
is either only used within one file so we should make it static or we
should declare it in a header.
The following changes where made to fix problems:
• Some functions were made static
• cogl-path.h (the one containing the 1.0 API) was split into two
files, one defining the functions and one defining the enums so that
cogl-path.c can include the enum and function declarations from the
2.0 API as well as the function declarations from the 1.0 API.
• cogl2-clip-state has been removed. This only had one experimental
function called cogl_clip_push_from_path but as this is unstable we
might as well remove it favour of the equivalent cogl_framebuffer_*
API.
• The GLX, SDL and WGL winsys's now have a private header to define
their get_vtable function instead of directly declaring in the C
file where it is called.
• All places that were calling COGL_OBJECT_DEFINE need to have the
cogl_is_whatever function declared so these have been added either
as a public function or in a private header.
• Some files that were not including the header containing their
function declarations have been fixed to do so.
• Any unused error quark functions have been removed. If we later want
them we should add them back one by one and add a declaration for
them in a header.
• _cogl_is_framebuffer has been renamed to cogl_is_framebuffer and
made a public function with a declaration in cogl-framebuffer.h
• Similarly for CoglOnscreen.
• cogl_vdraw_indexed_attributes is called
cogl_framebuffer_vdraw_indexed_attributes in the header. The
definition has been changed to match the header.
• cogl_index_buffer_allocate has been removed. This had no declaration
and I'm not sure what it's supposed to do.
• CoglJournal has been changed to use the internal CoglObject macro so
that it won't define an exported cogl_is_journal symbol.
• The _cogl_blah_pointer_from_handle functions have been removed.
CoglHandle isn't used much anymore anyway and in the few places
where it is used I think it's safe to just use the implicit cast
from void* to the right type.
• The test-utils.h header for the conformance tests explicitly
disables the -Wmissing-declaration option using a pragma because all
of the tests declare their main function without a header. Any
mistakes relating to missing declarations aren't really important
for the tests.

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
naturally extended as we start adding more configureability to how
onscreen framebuffers are created.

The previous detection was based on color depth only to determine the
texture format to use in GLX. If that worked fine at depths 24 (RGB8)
and 32 (ARGB8), that would fail at depth 30 (BGR10) and fallback to
software instead of using the TFP extension.
This commit uses an efficient population count implementation to
compare the number of 1-bits in color masks against the color depth
requested by the X client. If they are not equal this means that an
alpha channel has been requested.

This patch basically restores the logic from 1.6. There we assumed that
glXCopySubBuffer won't tear and thus only needs to be throttled to the
framerate, while glBlitFramebuffer needs to always wait to avoid
tearing.
With Nvidia drivers specifically we have seen that glBlitFramebuffer is
not synchronized. Eventually the plan is that Cogl will actually take
into consideration the underlying driver/hw vendor and driver version
and we may want to only mark glBlitFramebuffer un-synchronized on
Nvidia.

If the user doesn't explicitly pass an onscreen template then instead of
leaving display->onscreen_template as NULL we now instantiate a template
ourselves. This simplifies winsys code that might want to refer to the
template since it needn't first check for a NULL pointer.

Cogl aims to consistently put the origin of 2D objects at the top-left
instead of the bottom left as OpenGL does, but there was an oversight
and the experimental cogl_framebuffer_swap_region API was accepting
coordinates relative to the bottom left. Cogl will now flip the user's
given rectangles to be relative to the bottom of the framebufffer before
sending them to APIs like glXCopySubBuffer and glBlitFramebuffer.

The GLX winsys is only compatible with GL drivers so we now bail out
from cogl-winsys-glx.c:_cogl_winsys_renderer_connect if a GLES driver
has been chosen.

Previously, _cogl_get_proc_address had a fallback to resolve the
symbol using g_module_open(NULL) to get the symbol from anywhere in
the address space. The EGL backend ends up using this on some drivers
because eglGetProcAddress isn't meant to return a pointer for core
functions. This causes problems if something in the process is linking
against a different GL library, for example Cairo may be linking
against libGL itself. In this case it may end up resolving symbols
from the GL library even if GLES is being used.
This patch removes the fallback. The EGL version now has its own
fallback instead which passes the existing libgl_module from the
renderer to g_module_symbol so that it should only get symbols from
that library or its dependency chain. The GLX and WGL winsys only call
glXGetProcAddress and wglGetProcAddress. The stub winsys does however
continue using the global symbol lookup.
The internal _cogl_get_proc_address function has been renamed to
_cogl_renderer_get_proc_address because it needs a connected renderer
to work so it could be considered to be a renderer method. The pointer
to the renderer is passed down to the winsys backends so that it can
use the data attached to the renderer to get the module pointers.

Instead of using g_module_build_path with the short name of the GL
library (eg, "GL") and relying on glib to add the suffix and prefix,
the configure script now directly encodes the full name including the
version number (eg, "libGL.so.1"). This is necessary because distros
don't always install the non-versioned suffix for the library.
The GLES libraries are left without the version suffix because it's
not clear what should be placed here and I can't find any
documentation from Khronos to clarify this. Mesa seems to install a
file called libGLESv2.so.2 but the IMG SDK doesn't install any
versioned library. There is an example of dynamically loading
libGLESv2 in the Chromium source code and that does not use the
version suffix even though it does use the version suffix for GL. This
implies that it's at least fairly normal to load the unversioned name
for GLES.

The _cogl_context_check_gl_version function is meant to be called once
Cogl has a GL context so that it can check whether the context found
is supported by Cogl. However, only the stub winsys was calling this
and it was doing it before Cogl had a chance to retrieve the function
pointer for glString so it would just crash. This patch combines the
two functions into one so that _cogl_context_update_features returns a
gboolean and a GError. Then it can just check the context itself.

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.
