There are several places where we need to compare the texture state of a
pipeline and sometimes we need to take into consideration if the
underlying texture has changed but other times we may only care to know
if the texture target has changed.
For example the fragends typically generate programs that they want to
share with all pipelines with equivalent fragment processing state, and
in this case when comparing pipelines we only care about the texture
targets since changes to the underlying texture won't affect the
programs generated.
Prior to this we had tried to handle this by passing around some special
flags to various functions that evaluate pipeline state to say when we
do/don't care about the texture data, but this wasn't working in all
cases and was more awkward to manage than the new approach.
Now we simply have two state bits:
COGL_PIPELINE_LAYER_STATE_TEXTURE_TARGET and
COGL_PIPELINE_LAYER_STATE_TEXTURE_DATA and CoglPipelineLayer has an
additional target member. Since all the appropriate code takes masks of
these state bits to determine what to evaluate we don't need any extra
magic flags.
When notifying that a pipeline property is going to change, then at
times a pipeline will take over being the authority of the corresponding
state group. Some state groups can contain multiple properties and so to
maintain the integrity of all of the properties we have to initialize
all the property values in the new authority. For state groups with only
one property we don't have to initialize anything during the
pre_change_notify() because we can assume the value will be initialized
as part of the change being notified.
This patch optimizes how we handle this initialization of state groups
in a couple of ways; firstly we no longer do anything to initialize
state-groups with only one property, secondly we no longer use
_cogl_pipeline_copy_differences - (we have a new
_cogl_pipeline_init_multi_property_sparse_state() func) so we can avoid
lots calls to handle_automatic_blend_enable() which is sometimes seen
high in sysprof profiles.
Previously atlasing would be disabled if the GL driver does not
support reading back texture data. This meant that atlasing would not
happen on GLES. However we also require that the driver support FBOs
and the texture data is only read back as a fallback if the FBO
fails. Therefore the atlas should be ok on GLES 2 which has FBO
support in core.
We try and bail out of flushing pipeline state asap if we can see the
pipeline has already been flushed and hasn't changed but we weren't
checking to see if the skip_gl_color flag is the same as when it was
last flush too and so we'd sometimes bail out without updating the
glColor correctly.
When an item is added to the journal the current pipeline immediately
gets the legacy state applied to it and the modified pipeline is
logged instead of the original. However the actual drawing from the
journal is done using the vertex attribute API which was also applying
the legacy state. This meant that the legacy state used would be a
combination of the state set when the journal entry was added as well
as the state set when the journal is flushed. To fix this there is now
an extra CoglDrawFlag to avoid applying the legacy state when setting
up the GL state for the vertex attributes. The journal uses this flag
when flushing.
The vertex attribute API assumes that if there is a color array
enabled then we can't determine if the colors are opaque so we have to
enable blending. The journal always uses a color array to avoid
switching color state between rectangles. Since the journal switched
to using vertex attributes this means we effectively always enable
blending from the journal. To fix this there is now a new flag for
_cogl_draw_vertex_attributes to specify that the color array is known
to only contain opaque colors which causes the draw function not to
copy the pipeline. If the pipeline has blending disabled then the
journal passes this flag.

There is an internal version of cogl_draw_vertex_attributes_array
which previously just bypassed the framebuffer flushing, journal
flushing and pipeline validation so that it could be used to draw the
journal. This patch generalises the function so that it takes a set of
flags to specify which parts to flush. The public version of the
function now just calls the internal version with the flags set to
0. The '_real' version of the function has now been merged into the
internal version of the function because it was only called in one
place. This simplifies the code somewhat. The common code which
flushed the various state has been moved to a separate function. The
indexed versions of the functions have had a similar treatment.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2481
Cogl no longer has any code that assumes the buffer in a CoglBitmap is
allocated to the full size of height*rowstride. We should comment that
this is the case so that we remember to keep it that way. This is
important for cogl_texture_new_from_data because the application may
have created the data from a sub-region of a larger image and in that
case it's not safe to read the full rowstride of the last row when the
sub region contains the last row of the larger image.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2491
When uploading data for GLES we need to deal with cases where the
rowstride is too large to be described only by GL_UNPACK_ALIGNMENT
because there is no GL_UNPACK_ROW_LENGTH. Previously for the
sub-region uploading code it would always copy the bitmap and for the
code to upload the whole image it would copy the bitmap unless the
rowstride == bpp*width. Neither paths took into account that we don't
need to copy if the rowstride is just an alignment of bpp*width. This
moves the bitmap copying code to a separate function that is used by
both upload methods. It only copies the bitmap if the rowstride is not
just an alignment of bpp*width.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2491
The ffs function is defined in C99 so if we want to use it in Cogl we
need to provide a fallback for MSVC. This adds a configure check for
the function and then a fallback using a while loop if it is not
available.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2491
If we have to copy the bitmap to do the premultiplication then we were
previously using the rowstride of the source image as the rowstride
for the new image. This is wasteful if the source image is a subregion
of a larger image which would make it use a large rowstride. If we
have to copy the data anyway we might as well compact it to the
smallest rowstride. This also prevents the copy from reading past the
end of the last row of pixels.
An internal function called _cogl_bitmap_copy has been added to do the
copy. It creates a new bitmap with the smallest possible rowstride
rounded up the nearest multiple of 4 bytes. There may be other places
in Cogl that are currently assuming we can read height*rowstride of
the source buffer so they may want to take advantage of this function
too.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2491
The builtin vertex attribute for the normals was incorrectly checked
for as 'cogl_normal' however it is defined as cogl_normal_in in the
shader boilerplate and for the name generated by CoglVertexBuffer.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2499
The ARBfp fragend was bypassing generating a shader if the pipeline
contains a user program. However it shouldn't do this if the pipeline
only contains a vertex shader. This was breaking
test-cogl-just-vertex-shader.
Previously Cogl would only ever use one atlas for textures and if it
reached the maximum texture size then all other new textures would get
their own GL texture. This patch makes it so that we create as many
atlases as needed. This should avoid breaking up some batches and it
will be particularly good if we switch to always using multi-texturing
with a default shader that selects between multiple atlases using a
vertex attribute.
Whenever a new atlas is created it is stored in a GSList on the
context. A weak weference is taken on the atlas using
cogl_object_set_user_data so that it can be removed from the list when
the atlas is destroyed. The atlas textures themselves take a reference
to the atlas and this is the only thing that keeps the atlas
alive. This means that once the atlas becomes empty it will
automatically be destroyed.
All of the COGL_NOTEs pertaining to atlases are now prefixed with the
atlas pointer to make it clearer which atlas is changing.
All of the drawing needed in _cogl_add_path_to_stencil_buffer is done
with the vertex attribute API so there should be no need to flush the
enable flags to enable the vertex array. This was causing problems on
GLES2 where the vertex array isn't available.
The GLES2 wrapper is no longer needed because the shader generation is
done within the GLSL fragend and vertend and any functions that are
different for GLES2 are now guarded by #ifdefs.
Once the GLES2 wrapper is removed then we won't have the GLenums
needed for setting up the layer combine state. This adds Cogl enums
instead which have the same values as the corresponding GLenums. The
enums are:
CoglPipelineCombineFunc
CoglPipelineCombineSource
and
CoglPipelineCombineOp
Once the GLES2 wrapper is removed we won't be able to upload the
matrices with the fixed function API any more. The fixed function API
gives a global state for setting the matrix but if a custom shader
uniform is used for the matrices then the state is per
program. _cogl_matrix_stack_flush_to_gl is called in a few places and
it is assumed the current pipeline doesn't need to be flushed before
it is called. To allow these semantics to continue to work, on GLES2
the matrix flush now just stores a reference to the matrix stack in
the CoglContext. A pre_paint virtual is added to the progend which is
called whenever a pipeline is flushed, even if the same pipeline was
flushed already. This gives the GLSL progend a chance to upload the
matrices to the uniforms. The combined modelview/projection matrix is
only calculated if it is used. The generated programs end up never
using the modelview or projection matrix so it usually only has to
upload the combined matrix. When a matrix stack is flushed a reference
is taked to it by the pipeline progend and the age is stored so that
if the same state is used with the same program again then we don't
need to reupload the uniform.
Sometimes it would be useful if we could efficiently track when a matrix
stack has been modified. For example on GLES2 we have to upload the
modelview as a uniform to our glsl programs but because the modelview
state is part of the framebuffer state it becomes a bit more tricky to
know when to re-sync the value of the uniform with the framebuffer
state. This adds an "age" counter to CoglMatrixStack which is
incremented for any operation that effectively modifies the top of the
stack so now we can save the age of the stack inside the pipeline
whenever we update modelview uniform and later compare that with the
stack to determine if it has changed.
This returns the layer matrix given a pipeline and a layer index. The
API is kept as internal because it directly returns a pointer into the
layer private data to avoid a copy into an out-param. We might also
want to add a public function which does the copy.
When the GLES2 wrapper is removed we can't use the fixed function API
such as glColorPointer to set the builtin attributes. Instead the GLSL
progend now maintains a cache of attribute locations that are queried
with glGetAttribLocation. The code that previously maintained a cache
of the enabled texture coord arrays has been modified to also cache
the enabled vertex attributes under GLES2. The vertex attribute API is
now the only place that is using this cache so it has been moved into
cogl-vertex-attribute.c
Previously when stroking a path it was flushing a pipeline and then
directly calling glDrawArrays to draw the line strip from the path
nodes array. This patch changes it to build a CoglVertexArray and a
series of attributes to paint with instead. The vertex array and
attributes are attached to the CoglPath so it can be reused later. The
old vertex array for filling has been renamed to fill_vbo.
The code to display the source when the show-source debug option is
given has been moved to _cogl_shader_set_source_with_boilerplate so
that it will show both user shaders and generated shaders. It also
shows the code with the full boilerplate. To make it the same for
ARBfp, cogl_shader_compile_real now also dumps user ARBfp shaders.
The GLSL vertend is mostly only useful for GLES2. The fixed function
vertend is kept at higher priority than the GLSL vertend so it is
unlikely to be used in any other circumstances.
Due to Mesa bug 28585 calling glVertexAttrib with attrib location 0
doesn't appear to work. This patch just reorders the vertex and color
attributes in the shader in the hope that Mesa will assign the color
attribute to a different location.
Some builtin attributes such as the matrix uniforms and some varyings
were missing from the boilerplate for GLES2. This also moves the
texture matrix and texture coord attribute declarations to
cogl-shader.c so that they can be dynamically defined depending on the
number of texture coord arrays enabled.
The vertends are intended to flush state that would be represented in
a vertex program. Code to handle the layer matrix, lighting and
point size has now been moved from the common cogl-pipeline-opengl
backend to the fixed vertend.
'progend' is short for 'program backend'. The progend is intended to
operate on combined state from a fragment backend and a vertex
backend. The progend has an 'end' function which is run whenever the
pipeline is flushed and the two pipeline change notification
functions. All of the progends are run whenever the pipeline is
flushed instead of selecting a single one because it is possible that
multiple progends may be in use for example if the vertends and
fragends are different. The GLSL progend will take the shaders
generated by the fragend and vertend and link them into a single
program. The fragend code has been changed to only generate the shader
and not the program. The idea is that pipelines can share fragment
shader objects even if their vertex state is different. The authority
for the progend needs to be the combined authority on the vertend and
fragend state.
This adds two internal functions:
gboolean
_cogl_program_has_fragment_shader (CoglHandle handle);
gboolean
_cogl_program_has_vertex_shader (CoglHandle handle);
They just check whether any of the contained shaders are of that type.
The pipeline function _cogl_pipeline_find_codegen_authority has been
renamed to _cogl_pipeline_find_equivalent_parent and it now takes a
set of flags for the pipeline and layer state that affects the
authority. This is needed so that we can reuse the same code in the
vertend and progends.
Previously enabling and disabling textures was done whatever the
backend in cogl-pipeline-opengl. However enabling and disabling
texture targets only has any meaning if no fragment shaders are being
used so this patch moves the code to cogl-pipeline-fragend-fixed.
The GLES2 wrapper has also been changed to ignore enabledness when
deciding whether to update texture coordinate attribute pointers.
The current Cogl pipeline backends are entirely concerned with the
fragment processing state. We also want to eventually have separate
backends to generate shaders for the vertex processing state so we
need to rename the fragment backends. 'Fragend' is a somewhat weird
name but we wanted to avoid ending up with illegible symbols like
CoglPipelineFragmentBackendGlslPrivate.
We are currently using a pipeline as a key into our arbfp program cache
but because we weren't making a copy of the pipelines used as keys there
were times when doing a lookup in the cache would end up trying to
compare a lookup key with an entry key that would point to invalid
memory.
Note: the current approach isn't ideal from the pov that that key
pipeline may reference some arbitrarily large user textures will now be
kept alive indefinitely. The plan to improve on this is that we will
have a mechanism to create a special "key pipeline" which will derive
from the default Cogl pipeline (to avoid affecting the lifetime of
other pipelines) and only copy state from the original pipeline that
affects the arbfp program and will reference small dummy textures
instead of potentially large user textures.
In the arbfp backend there is a seqential approach to finding a suitable
arbfp program to use for a given pipeline; first we see if there's
already a program associated with the pipeline, 2nd we try and find a
program associated with the "arbfp-authority" 3rd we try and lookup a
program in a cache and finally we resort to starting code-generation for
a new program. This patch slightly reworks the code of these steps to
hopefully make them a bit clearer.
_cogl_pipeline_needs_blending_enabled tries to determine whether each
layer is using the default combine state. However it was using
argument 0 for both checks so the if-statement would never be true.
There are a set of "EvalFlags" that get passed to _cogl_pipeline_hash
that can tweak the semantics of what state is evaluated for hashing but
these flags weren't getting passed via the HashState state structure
so it would be undefined if you would get the correct semantics.
According to 9cc9033347 the windows headers #define near as nothing,
and presumable the same is true for 'far' too. Apparently this define is
to improve compatibility with code written for Windows 3.1, so it's good
that people will be able to incorporate such code into their Clutter
applications.
We were trying to declare and initializing an arbfp program cache for
GLES but since the prototypes for the _hash and _equal functions were
only available for GL this broke the GLES builds. By #ifdefing the code
to conditionally declare/initialize for GL only this should hopefully
fix GLES builds.
The constant 'True' is defined by Xlib which isn't used for all clutter
builds so this replaces occurrences of True with TRUE which is defined
by glib. This should hopefully fix the win32 builds.
This adds a cache (A GHashTable) of ARBfp programs and before ever
starting to code-generate a new program we will always first try and
find an existing program in the cache. This uses _cogl_pipeline_hash and
_cogl_pipeline_equal to hash and compare the keys for the cache.
There is a new COGL_DEBUG=disable-program-caches option that can disable
the cache for debugging purposes.
This allows us to get a hash for a set of state groups for a given
pipeline. This can be used for example to get a hash of the fragment
processing state of a pipeline so we can implement a cache for compiled
arbfp/glsl programs.
_cogl_pipeline_equal now accepts a mask of pipeline differences and layer
differences to constrain what state will be compared. In addition a set
of flags are passed that can tweak the comparison semantics for some
state groups. For example when comparing layer textures we sometimes
only need to compare the texture target and can ignore the data itself.
In updating the code this patch also changes it so all required pipeline
authorities are resolved in one step up-front instead of resolving the
authority for each state group in turn and repeatedly having to traverse
the pipeline's ancestry. This adds two new functions
_cogl_pipeline_resolve_authorities and
_cogl_pipeline_layer_resolve_authorities to handle resolving a set of
authorities.
This removes the unused array of per-packend priv data pointers
associated with every CoglPipelineLayer. This reduces the size of all
layer allocations and avoids having to zero an array for each
_cogl_pipeline_layer_copy.
A non-static function named cogl_object_get_type was inadvertently added
during the addition of the CoglObject base type, but there is no public
prototype in the headers and it's only referenced inside cogl-object.c
to implement cogl_handle_get_type() for compatibility. This removes the
function since we don't want to commit to CoglObject always simply being
a boxed type. In the future we may want to register hierarchical
GTypeInstance based types.
To allow us to have gobject properties that accept a CoglMatrix value we
need to register a GType. This adds a cogl_gtype_matrix_get_type function
that will register a static boxed type called "CoglMatrix".
This adds a new section to the reference manual for GType integration
functions.
As a pre-requisite for being able to register a boxed GType for
CoglMatrix (enabling us to define gobject properties that accept a
CoglMatrix) this adds cogl_matrix_copy and _free functions.
In _cogl_pipeline_needs_blending_enabled after first checking whether
the property most recently changed requires blending we would then
resort to checking all other properties too in case some other state
also requires blending. We now avoid checking all other properties in
the case that blending was previously disabled and checking the property
recently changed doesn't require blending.
Note: the plan is to improve this further by explicitly keeping track
of the properties that currently cause blending to be enabled so that we
never have to resort to checking all other properties we can constrain
the checks to those masked properties.
This moves _cogl_pipeline_get_parent and _cogl_pipeline_get_authority
into cogl-pipeline-private.h so they can be inlined since they have been
seen to get quite high in profiles. Given that they both contain such
small amounts of code the function call overhead is significant.
This adds a debug option called disable-software-clipping which causes
the journal to always log the clip stack state rather than trying to
manually clip rectangles.
Before flushing the journal there is now a separate iteration that
will try to determine if the matrix of the clip stack and the matrix
of the rectangle in each entry are on the same plane. If they are it
can completely avoid the clip stack and instead manually modify the
vertex and texture coordinates to implement the clip. The has the
advantage that it won't break up batching if a single clipped
rectangle is used in a scene.
The software clip is only used if there is no user program and no
texture matrices. There is a threshold to the size of the batch where
it is assumed that it is worth the cost to break up a batch and
program the GPU to do the clipping. Currently this is set to 8
although this figure is plucked out of thin air.
To check whether the two matrices are on the same plane it tries to
determine if one of the matrices is just a simple translation of the
other. In the process of this it also works out what the translation
would be. These values can be used to translate the clip rectangle
into the coordinate space of the rectangle to be logged. Then we can
do the clip directly in the rectangle's coordinate space.
Previously in cogl-clip-state.c when it detected that the current
modelview matrix is screen-aligned it would convert the clip entry to
a window clip. Instead of doing this cogl-clip-stack.c now contains
the detection and keeps the entry as a rectangle clip but marks that
it is entirely described by its scissor rect. When flusing the clip
stack it doesn't do anything extra for entries that have this mark
(because the clip will already been setup by the scissor). This is
needed so that we can still track the original rectangle coordinates
and modelview matrix to help detect when it would be faster to modify
the rectangle when adding it to the journal rather than having to
break up the batch to set the clip state.
When logging a quad we now only store the 2 vertices representing the
top left and bottom right of the quad. The color is only stored once
per entry. Once we come to upload the data we expand the 2 vertices
into four and copy the color to each vertex. We do this by mapping the
buffer and directly expanding into it. We have to copy the data before
we can render it anyway so it doesn't make much sense to expand the
vertices before uploading and this way should save some space in the
size of the journal. It also makes it slightly easier if we later want
to do pre-processing on the journal entries before uploading such as
doing software clipping.
The modelview matrix is now always copied to the journal entry whereas
before it would only be copied if we aren't doing software
transform. The journal entry struct always has the space for the
modelview matrix so hopefully it's only a small cost to copy the
matrix.
The transform for the four entries is now done using
cogl_matrix_transform_points which may be slightly faster than
transforming them each individually with a call to
cogl_matrix_transfom.
This reverts commit 4cfe90bde2.
GLSL 1.00 on GLES doesn't support unsized arrays so the whole idea
can't work.
Conflicts:
clutter/cogl/cogl/cogl-pipeline-glsl.c
The check for whether we can reuse a program we've already generated
was only being done if the pipeline already had a
glsl_program_state. When there is no glsl_program_state it then looks
for the nearest ancestor it can share the program with. It then
wasn't checking whether that ancestor already had a GL program so it
would start generating the source again. It wouldn't however compile
that source again because _cogl_pipeline_backend_glsl_end does check
whether there is already a program. This patch moves the check until
after it has found the glsl_program_state, whether or not it was found
from an ancestor or as its own state.
Under GLES2 we were defining the cogl_tex_coord_in varying as an array
with a size determined by the number of texture coordinate arrays
enabled whenever the program is used. This meant that we may have to
regenerate the shader with a different size if the shader is used with
more texture coord arrays later. However in OpenGL the equivalent
builtin varying gl_TexCoord is simply defined as:
varying vec4 gl_TexCoord[]; /* <-- no size */
GLSL is documented that if you declare an array with no size then you
can only access it with a constant index and the size of the array
will be determined by the highest index used. If you want to access it
with a non-constant expression you need to redeclare the array
yourself with a size.
We can replicate the same behaviour in our Cogl shaders by instead
declaring the cogl_tex_coord_in with no size. That way we don't have
to pass around the number of tex coord attributes enabled when we
flush a material. It also means that CoglShader can go back to
directly uploading the source string to GL when cogl_shader_source is
called so that we don't have to keep a copy of it around.
If the user wants to access cogl_tex_coord_in with a non-constant
index then they can simply redeclare the array themself. Hopefully
developers will expect to have to do this if they are accustomed to
the gl_TexCoord array.
When compiling for GLES2, the codegen is affected by state other than
the layers. That means when we find an authority for the codegen state
we can't directly look at authority->n_layers to determine the number
of layers because it isn't necessarily the layer state authority. This
patch changes it to use cogl_pipeline_get_n_layers instead. Once we
have two authorities that differ in codegen state we then compare all
of the layers to decide if they would affect codegen. However it was
ignoring the fact that the authorities might also differ by the other
codegen state. This path also adds an extra check for whether
_cogl_pipeline_compare_differences contains any codegen bits other
than COGL_PIPELINE_STATE_LAYERS.
When determining if a layer would require a different shader to be
generated it needs to check a certain set of state changes and it
needs to check whether the texture target is different. However it was
checking whether texture texture was different only if the other state
was also different which doesn't make any sense. It also only checked
the texture difference if that was the only state change which meant
that effectively the code was impossible to reach. Now it does the
texture target check indepent of the other state changes.
The fixed pipeline backend wasn't correctly flushing the combine
constant because it was using the wrong flag to determine if the
combine constant has changed since the last flushed material.
When enabling a unit that was disabled from a previous flush pipeline
it was forgetting to rebind the right texture unit so it wouldn't
work. This was causing the redhand to disappear when using the fixed
function backend in test-cogl-multitexture if anything else is added
to the scene.
For shader generation backends we don't need to worry about changes to
the texture object and changing the user matrix. The missing user
matrix flag was causing test-cogl-multitexture to regenerate the
shader every frame.
Having ctx here produces a warning on GLES. However it's needed for Big
GL as we have at the top of the file:
#ifdef HAVE_COGL_GL
#define glClientActiveTexture ctx->drv.pf_glClientActiveTexture
#endif
This reverts commit 27a3a2056a.
In 6246c2bd6 I moved the code to add the boilerplate to a shader to a
separate function and also made it so that the common boilerplate is
added as a separate string to glShaderSource. However I didn't notice
that the #define for the vertex and fragment shaders already includes
the common part so it was being added twice. Mesa seems to accept this
but it was causing problems on the IMG driver because COGL_VERSION was
defined twice.
Before commit 49898d43 CoglPipeline would compare whether a pipeline
layer's texture is equal by fetching the underlying GL handle. I
changed that so that it would only compare the CoglHandles because
that commit removes the GL handle texture overrides and sliced
textures instead log the underlying primitive texture. However I
forgot that the primitives don't always use
_cogl_texture_foreach_sub_texture_in_region when the quad fits within
the single texture so it won't use a texture override. This meant that
atlas textures and sub textures get logged with the atlas handle so
the comparison still needs to be done using the GL handles. It might
be nice to add a CoglTexture virtual to get the underlying primitive
texture instead to avoid having the pipeline poke around with GL
handles.
If we have to make override changes to the user's source material to
handle cogl_polygon then we need to make sure we unref the override
material at the end.
Previously we used the layers->backend_priv[] members to determine when
to notify backends about layer changes, but it entirely up to the
backends if they want to associate private state with layers, even
though they may still be interested in layer change notifications (they
may associate layer related state with the owner pipeline).
We now make the observation that in
_cogl_pipeline_backend_layer_change_notify we should be able to assume
there can only be one backend currently associated with the layer
because we wouldn't allow changes to a layer with multiple dependants.
This means we can determine the backend to notify by looking at the
owner pipeline instead.
The features_cached member of CoglContext is intended to mark when
we've calculated the features so that we know if they are ready in
cogl_get_features. However we always intialize the features while
creating the context so features_cached will never be FALSE so it's
not useful. We also had the odd behaviour that the COGL_DEBUG feature
overrides were only applied in the first call to
cogl_get_features. However there are other functions that use the
feature flags such as cogl_features_available that don't use this
function so in some cases the feature flags will be interpreted before
the overrides are applied. This patch makes it always initialize the
features and apply the overrides immediately while creating the
context. This fixes a problem with COGL_DEBUG=disable-arbfp where the
first material flushed is done before any call to cogl_get_features so
it may still use ARBfp.
Now that the GLSL backend can generate code it can effectively handle
any pipeline unless there is an ARBfp program. However with current
open source GL drivers the ARBfp compiler is more stable so it makes
sense to prefer ARBfp when possible. The GLSL backend is also lower
than the fixed function backend on the assumption that any driver that
supports GLSL will also support ARBfp so it's quicker to try the fixed
function backend next.
This adds COGL_DEBUG=disable-fixed to disable the fixed function
pipeline backend. This is needed to test the GLSL shader generation
because otherwise the fixed function backend would always override it.
We don't want to use gl_PointCoord to implement point sprites on big
GL because in that case we already use glTexEnv(GL_COORD_REPLACE) to
replace the texture coords with the point sprite coords. Although GL
also supports the gl_PointCoord variable, it requires GLSL 1.2 which
would mean we would have to declare the GLSL version and check for
it. We continue to use gl_PointCoord for GLES2 because it has no
glTexEnv function.
The GLES2 wrapper no longer needs to generate any fragment shader
state because the GLSL pipeline backend will always give the wrapper a
custom fragment shader. This simplifies a lot of the state comparison
done by the wrapper. The fog generation is also removed even though
it's actually part of the vertex shader because only the fixed
function pipeline backend actually calls the fog functions so it would
be disabled when using any of the other backends anyway. We can fix
this when the two shader backends also start generating vertex
shaders.
GLES2 has no glAlphaFunc function so we need to simulate the behaviour
in the fragment shader. The alpha test function is simulated with an
if-statement and a discard statement. The reference value is stored as
a uniform.
Previously the flag to mark the differences for the alpha test
function and reference value were conflated into one. However this is
awkward when generating shader code to simulate the alpha testing for
GLES 2 because in that case changing the function would need a
different program but changing the reference value just requires
updating a uniform. This patch makes the function and reference have
their own state flags.
The GLSL shader generation supports layer combine constants so there's
no need to disable it for GLES2. It looks like there was also code for
it in the GLES2 wrapper so I'm not sure why it was disabled in the
first place.
The GLSL pipeline backend can now generate code to represent the
pipeline state in a similar way to the ARBfp backend. Most of the code
for this is taken from the GLES 2 wrapper.
_cogl_shader_compile_real had some code to create a set of strings to
combine the boilerplate code with a shader before calling
glShaderSource. This has now been moved to its own internal function
so that it could be used from the GLSL pipeline backend as well.
need_texture_combine_separate is moved to cogl-pipeline.c and renamed
to _cogl_pipeline_need_texture_combine_separate. The function is
needed by both the ARBfp and GLSL codegen backends so it makes sense to
share it.
The code for finding the arbfp authority for a pipeline should be the
same as finding the GLSL authority. So that the code can be shared the
function has been moved to cogl-pipeline.c and renamed to
_cogl_pipeline_find_codegen_authority.
Only one of the material backends can be generating code at the same
time so it seems to make sense to share the same source buffer between
arbfp and glsl. The new name is fragment_source_buffer in case we
later want to create a new buffer for the vertex shader. That probably
couldn't share the same buffer because it will likely need to be
generated at the same time.
* cogl_texture_get_data() is converted to use
_cogl_texture_foreach_sub_texture_in_region() to iterate
through the underlying textures.
* When we need to read only a portion of the underlying
texture, we set up a FBO and use _cogl_read_pixels()
to read the portion we need. This is enormously more
efficient for reading a small portion of a large atlas
texture.
* The CoglAtlasTexture, CoglSubTexture, and CoglTexture2dSliced
implementation of get_texture() are removed.
