glVertexPointer expects positions with 2, 3 or 4 components, glColorPointer
expects colors with 3 or 4 components and glNormalPointer expects normals
with three components so when adding vertex buffer atributes with the names
"gl_Vertex", "gl_Color" or "gl_Normal" we assert these constraints and print
an explanation to the developer if not met.
This also fixes the previosly incorrect constraint that gl_Normal attributes
must have n_components == 1; thanks to Cat Sidhe for reporting this:
Bug: http://bugzilla.openedhand.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1819
By default, float * is considered as an out argument by gobject
introspection which is wrong for quite a few Cogl symbols. Start adding
annotations to fix that for the ones in the "Primitives" gtk-doc
section.
The lifetime of the journal VBO is entirely within the scope of the
cogl_journal_flush function so there is no need to store it globally
in the Cogl context. Instead, upload_vertices_to_vbo just returns the
new VBO. cogl_journal_flush stores this in a local variable and
destroys it before returning.
This also fixes an assertion when using the GLES backend which was
caused by nothing initialising the journal_vbo variable.
The framebuffer_object spec isn't clear in defining whether attaching a
texture as a renderbuffer with mipmap filtering enabled while the mipmaps
have not been uploaded should result in an incomplete framebuffer object.
(different drivers make different decisions)
To avoid an error with drivers that do consider this a problem we explicitly
set non mipmapped filters before calling glCheckFramebufferStatusEXT. The
filters will later be reset when the texture is actually used for rendering
according to the filters set on the corresponding CoglMaterial.
The blend string compiler checks that the syntax of a function name is
[A-Za-z_]*, preventing the use of DOT3_RGB[A].

This reverts commit 3c47a3beb5.
Of course I remembered just after pushing the patch why we hadn't done
this before :-) If you look in the glsl spec:
http://www.khronos.org/registry/gles/specs/2.0/es_full_spec_2.0.24.pdf
Section 3.7.10 Texture Completeness and Non-Power-Of-Two Textures
you can see GLES 2.0 doesn't support mipmaps for npot textures.
There is possibly some way we could support this in Cogl but at least
it's not as simple as or-ing in the feature flag, sadly.
The core GLES2 API supports NPOT textures, i.e. there is no extension as for
OpenGL, so we now add COGL_FEATURE_TEXTURE_NPOT to the feature flags in
_cogl_features_init.
Thanks to Gordon Williams for spotting this.
Don't let stringify.sh write to the $srcdir + use the BUILT_SOURCES var in
Makefile.am so as to ensure all .c. and .h files get generated from their
corresponding .glsl files before building other targets.
The wrong part of an expression was bracketed in the test to determine
when a new texture matrix needed to be loaded which resulted in the
first pass through _cogl_material_layer_flush_gl_sampler_state
not uploading any user matrix.
Following bug #1762, the syntax of g-ir-scanner was changed in
gobject-introspection, so Clutter does not build anymore with 0.6.4.
See the bugzilla bug:

GObject-Introspection now uses a different mechanism to extract the
SONAME when building the gir file and it needs the libtool archive as
option.

The version number in the title made sense when we were breaking
API with every minor release. Now that we're API stable we can
drop that and make the output in Devhelp and on the website slightly
more good looking.
Keep the CoglContext in sync between GL and GLES backends. We ought
to find a way to have a generic context, though, and have backend
specific sections.

On some platforms (anything but Linux, and on obscure Linux
architectures) dolt isn't used, so $(top_builddir)/doltlibtool
won't exist. $(top_builddir)/libtool will always be generated
even if dolt is used, so just use that unconditionally. We don't
need the extra speed when linking the single program for
introspection.

commit e2c4a2a9f8 fixed one thing but broke many others things :-/
hopfully this fixes that.
It turned out that the journal was mistakenly setting the OVERRIDE_LAYER0
flush option for all entries, but some other logic errors were also
uncovered in _cogl_material_equal.
To help us handle sliced textures; When flushing materials there is an
override option that can be given to replace the texture name for layer0
so we may iterate the slices without needing to modify the material
in use.
Since improving the journal's ability to batch state changes we added a
_cogl_material_equals function that is used by the journal to compare
materials and identify when a state change is required, but this wasn't
correctly considering the layer0 override resulting in false positives that
meant the journal wouldn't update the GL state and the first texture name
was used for all slices.
The cost of glGetFloatv with Mesa is still representing a majority of our
time in OpenGL for some applications, and the last thing left using this is
the current-matrix API when getting the projection matrix.
This adds a matrix stack for the projection matrix, so all getting, setting
and modification of the projection matrix is now managed by Cogl and it's only
when we come to draw that we flush changes to the matrix to OpenGL.
This also brings us closer to being able to drop internal use of the
deprecated OpenGL matrix functions, re: commit 54159f5a1d
Scanners like gtk-doc and g-ir-scanner get confused by:
typedef struct _Foo {
...
} Foo;
And expect instead:
typedef struct _Foo Foo;
struct _Foo {
...
};
CoglMatrix definition should be changed to avoid the former type.
In order to validate the sequence of:
XResizeWindow
ConfigureNotify
glViewport
that should happen on X11 we need to add debug annotations to the
calls to glViewport() done through COGL.
This avoids some calls to glGetFloatv, which have at least proven to be very
in-efficient in mesa at this point in time, since it always updates all derived
state even when it may not relate to the state being requested.
Fixes and adds a unit test for creating and drawing using materials with
COGL_INVALID_HANDLE texture layers.
This may be valid if for example the user has set a texture combine string
that only references a constant color.
_cogl_material_flush_layers_gl_state will bind the fallback texture for any
COGL_INVALID_HANDLE layer, later though we could explicitly check when the
current blend mode does't actually reference a texture source in which case
binding the fallback texture is redundant.
This tests drawing using cogl_rectangle, cogl_polygon and
cogl_vertex_buffer_draw.

[cogl] Improving Cogl journal to minimize driver overheads + GPU state changes
The Cogl journal is a mechanism Cogl uses to batch geometry resulting from
any of the cogl_rectangle* functions before sending it to OpenGL. This aims
to improve the Cogl journal so that it can reduce the number of state
changes and draw calls we issue to the OpenGL driver and hopfully improve
performance.
Previously each call to any of the cogl_rectangle* functions would imply an
immediate GL draw call, as well as a corresponding modelview change;
material state changes and gl{Vertex,Color,TexCoord}Pointer calls. Now
though we have tried to open the scope for batching up as much as possible
so we only have to flush the geometry either before calling glXSwapBuffers,
or when we change state that isn't tracked by the journal.
As a basic example, it's now possible for us to batch typical picking
renders into a single draw call for the whole scene.
Some key points about this change:
- We now perform transformations of quads in software (except for long runs of
text which continue to use VBOs)
* It might seem surprising at first, but when you consider that so many
Clutter actors are little more than textured quads and each actor
typically implies a modelview matrix change; the costs involved in
setting up the GPU with the new modelview can easily out weigh the cost
of simply transforming 4 vertices.
- We always use Cogl's own client side matrix API now.
* We found the performance of querying the OpenGL driver for matrix state
was often worse than using the client matrix code, and also - discussing
with Mesa developers - agreed that since khronos has essentially
deprecated the GL matrix API (by removing it from OpenGL 3 and
OpenGL-ES 2) it was appropriate to take full responsibility for all our
matrix manipulation.
- Developers should avoid modifying materials mid-scene.
* With the exception of material color changes, if you try and modify a
material that is referenced in the journal we will currently force a
journal flush. Note: you can assume that re-setting the same value for
a material property won't require a flush though.
- Several new --cogl-debug options have been added
* "disable-batching" can be used to identify bugs in the way that the
journal does its batching; of could this shouldn't ever be needed :-)
* "disable-vbos" can be used to test the VBO fallback paths where we
simply use malloc()'d buffers instead.
* "batching" lets you get an overview of how the journal is batching
your geometry and may help you identify ways to improve your
application performance.
* "journal" lets you trace all the geometry as it gets logged in the
journal, and all the geometry as its flushed from the journal.
Obviously an inconsistency can identify a bug, but the numbers may
help you verify application logic too.
* "disable-software-transform" as implied will instead use the driver
/GPU to transform quads by the modelview matrix.
Although committed separately a --clutter-debug=nop-picking option was
also added that lets you remove picking from the equation, which can
sometimes help make problem analysis more deterministic.
Although we wouldn't recommend developers try and interleve OpenGL drawing
with Cogl drawing - we would prefer patches that improve Cogl to avoid this
if possible - we are providing a simple mechanism that will at least give
developers a fighting chance if they find it necissary.
Note: we aren't helping developers change OpenGL state to modify the
behaviour of Cogl drawing functions - it's unlikley that can ever be
reliably supported - but if they are trying to do something like:
- setup some OpenGL state.
- draw using OpenGL (e.g. glDrawArrays() )
- reset modified OpenGL state.
- continue using Cogl to draw
They should surround their blocks of raw OpenGL with cogl_begin_gl() and
cogl_end_gl():
cogl_begin_gl ();
- setup some OpenGL state.
- draw using OpenGL (e.g. glDrawArrays() )
- reset modified OpenGL state.
cogl_end_gl ();
- continue using Cogl to draw
Again; we aren't supporting code like this:
- setup some OpenGL state.
- use Cogl to draw
- reset modified OpenGL state.
When the internals of Cogl evolves, this is very liable to break.
cogl_begin_gl() will flush all internally batched Cogl primitives, and emit
all internal Cogl state to OpenGL as if it were going to draw something
itself.
The result is that the OpenGL modelview matrix will be setup; the state
corresponding to the current source material will be setup and other world
state such as backface culling, depth and fogging enabledness will be also
be sent to OpenGL.
Note: no special material state is flushed, so if developers want Cogl to setup
a simplified material state it is the their responsibility to set a simple
source material before calling cogl_begin_gl. E.g. by calling
cogl_set_source_color4ub().
Note: It is the developers responsibility to restore any OpenGL state that they
modify to how it was after calling cogl_begin_gl() if they don't do this then
the result of further Cogl calls is undefined.
This function should only need to be called in exceptional circumstances
since Cogl can normally determine internally when a flush is necessary.
As an optimization Cogl drawing functions may batch up primitives
internally, so if you are trying to use raw GL outside of Cogl you stand a
better chance of being successful if you ask Cogl to flush any batched
geometry before making your state changes.
cogl_flush() ensures that the underlying driver is issued all the commands
necessary to draw the batched primitives. It provides no guarantees about
when the driver will complete the rendering.
This provides no guarantees about the GL state upon returning and to avoid
confusing Cogl you should aim to restore any changes you make before
resuming use of Cogl.
If you are making state changes with the intention of affecting Cogl drawing
primitives you are 100% on your own since you stand a good chance of
conflicting with Cogl internals. For example clutter-gst which currently
uses direct GL calls to bind ARBfp programs will very likely break when Cogl
starts to use ARBfb programs internally for the material API, but for now it
can use cogl_flush() to at least ensure that the ARBfp program isn't applied
to additional primitives.
This does not provide a robust generalized solution supporting safe use of
raw GL, its use is very much discouraged.
Previously we would call _cogl_material_pre_change_notify unconditionally, but
now we wait until we really know we are removing a layer before notifying the
change, which will require a journal flush.
Since the convenience functions cogl_set_source_color4ub and
cogl_set_source_texture share a single material, cogl_set_source_color4ub
always calls cogl_material_remove_layer. Often this is a NOP though and
shouldn't require a journal flush.
This gets performance back to where it was before reverting the per-actor
material commits.
Before any cogl vertex buffer drawing we call
enable_state_for_drawing_buffer which sets up the GL state, but we weren't
disabling unsed client texture coord arrays.
This simplifies the vertex data uploading in the journal, and could improve
performance. Modifying a VBO mid-scene could reqire synchronizing with the
GPU or some form of shadowing/copying to avoid modifying data that the GPU
is currently processing; the buffer was also being marked as GL_STATIC_DRAW
which could have made things worse.
Now we simply create a GL_STATIC_DRAW VBO for each flush and and delete it
when we are finished.
Using cogl_rectangle (and thus the journal) in
_cogl_add_path_to_stencil_buffer means we have to consider all the state
that the journal may change in case it may interfer with the direct GL calls
used. This has proven to be error prone and in this case the journal is an
unnecissary overhead. We now simply call glRectf instead of using
cogl_rectangle.
We were missing the simplest test of all: are the two CoglHandles equal and
are the flush option flags for each material equal? This should improve
batching for some common cases.
