Mesa 3.1 release notes
PLEASE READ!!!!
New copyright
-------------
Mesa 3.1 will be distributed under an XFree86-style copyright instead
of the GNU LGPL.
New directories
---------------
All documentation files are now in the docs/ directory.
All shell scripts are now in the bin/ directory.
New library names
-----------------
Formerly, the main Mesa library was named libMesaGL.so (or libMesaGL.a)
and the GLU library was named libMesaGLU.so (or libMesaGLU.a).
Now, the main library is named libGL.so (or libGL.a) and the GLU library
is named libGLU.so (or libGLU.a).
The change allows Mesa to be more easily substituted for OpenGL.
Specifically, the linker/loader on some Unix-like systems won't
allow libMesaGL.so to be used instead of libGL.so if the application
was linked with the former.
Warning: if you have another OpenGL implementation installed on your
system (i.e. you have another OpenGL libGL.so) you'll have to be
carefull about which library (OpenGL or Mesa) you link against. Be
aware of -L linker flags and the value of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable.
New library versioning
----------------------
Previously, the Mesa GL library was named libMesaGL.so.3.0
To better support Linux/OpenGL standards, the Mesa GL library is now
named libGL.so.1.2.030100 This indicates version 1.2 of the OpenGL spec
and Mesa implementation 3.1.0
In the long term this will allow better interoperability with other
OpenGL implementations, especially on Linux. In the short term,
OpenGL apps may have to be relinked to use the new library naming.
New makefiles
-------------
The old Makefiles found in the various directories have been renamed
to Makefile.X11 in order to prevent filename collisions with autoconfig-
generated Makefiles.
The top-level Makefile simply includes Makefile.X11
If your top-level Makefile get's overwritten/destroyed you can restore
it by copying Makefile.X11 to Makefile
New extensions
--------------
GL_EXT_stencil_wrap
Implements two new stencil operations: GL_INCR_WRAP_EXT and
GL_DECR_WRAP_EXT which allow stencil increment and decrement
without clamping.
GL_INGR_blend_func_separate
Allows specification of blend factors for RGB and Alpha independently.
(INGR = Intergraph)
GL_ARB_multitexture
Multiple simultaneous textures. (ARB = Architecture Review Board)
GL_NV_texgen_reflection
nVidia texgen extension for better reflection mapping.
GL_PGI_misc_hints
Assorted transformation hints.
GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array
Compiled vertex arrays.
GL_EXT_clip_volume_hint
Allows one to disable clip volume (frustum) testing.
Extensions removed
------------------
GL_EXT_multitexture - obsolete in favor of GL_ARB_multitexture
Config file
-----------
By default, /etc/mesa.conf will be read when Mesa starts. This
file controls default hints, enable/disable of extensions, and
more. See the CONFIG file for documentation.
Optimizations
-------------
Keith Whitwell has contributed significant optimizations to Mesa's
vertex transformation code. Basically, the whole transformation
stage of Mesa has been rewritten.
It's impossible to give a speedup factor. You'll just have to
try your app and see how it performs.
Device Driver changes
---------------------
A bunch of new device driver functions have been added. See src/dd.h
Keith Harrison contributed many of them. I've been planning on adding
a bunch of functions like these to make writing hardware drivers easier.
More such function will probably be added in the near future.
Miscellaneous
-------------
util/glstate.c has some handy functions for debugging. Basically, it
offers a simple function for printing GL state variables. It's not
finished yet. There's a LOT more GLenum records to be added (see the
code). Anyone want to help?

Mesa 3.2.1 release notes
PLEASE READ!!!!
The Mesa 3.2.1 release mainly just fixes bugs since the 3.2 release.
See the VERSIONS file for the exact list.
GLU Polygon Tessellator
-----------------------
The GLU tessellator has been reverted back to the version included
with Mesa 3.0 since it's more stable. The Mesa 3.1/3.2 tessellator
implemented the GLU 1.3 specification but suffered from a number of
bugs.
Mesa implements GLU 1.1.
Ideally, people should use the GLU 1.3 library included in SGI's
OpenGL Sample Implementation (SI) available from
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/
People are working to make easy-to-install Linux RPMs of the
GLU library.

Mesa 3.3 release notes
July 21, 2000
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 3.3) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 3.2.1) designate stable releases.
Mesa 3.3 has a undergone many internal changes since version 3.2
and features a lot of new extensions. 3.3 is expected to be pretty
stable, but perhaps not as stable as 3.2 which has been used by
thousands of users over the past months.
Everyone is encouraged to try Mesa 3.3. Bugs should be reported to
the Mesa bug database on www.sourceforge.net.
Header file / GLenum changes
----------------------------
The gl.h and glu.h headers now use #defines to define all GL_* tokens
instead of C-language enums. This change improves Mesa/OpenGL
interoperability.
New API dispatch code
---------------------
The core Mesa gl* functions are now implemented with a new dispatch
(jump table) which will allow simultaneous direct/indirect rendering.
The code is found in the glapi*.[ch] files.
Of interest: the actual "glFooBar" functions are generated with
templatized code defined in glapitemp.h and included by glapi.c
The glapitemp.h template should be reusable for all sorts of OpenGL
projects.
The new dispatch code has also optimized with x86 assembly code.
This optimization eliminates copying the function arguments during
dispatch.
New thread support
------------------
Thread support in Mesa has been rewritten. The glthread.[ch] files
replace mthreads.[ch]. Thread safety is always enabled (on platforms
which support threads, that is). There is virtually no performance
penalty for typical single-thread applications. See the glapi.c
file for details.
The Xlib driver (XMesa) is now thread-safe as well. Be sure to
call XInitThreads() in your app first. See the xdemos/glthreads.c
demo for an example.
Make configuration changes
--------------------------
If you use the old-style (non GNU automake) method to build Mesa note
that several of the configuration names have changed:
Old name New name
------------- ----------------
linux-elf linux
linux linux-static
linux-386-elf linux-386
linux-386 linux-386-static
etc.
New extensions
--------------
GL_ARB_transpose_matrix
Adds glLoadTransposeMatrixARB() and glMultTransposeMatrixARB()
functions.
GL_ARB_texture_cube_map
For cube-based reflection mapping.
GL_EXT_texture_add_env
Adds GL_ADD texture environment mode.
See http://www.berkelium.com/OpenGL/EXT/texture_env_add.txt
GL_EXT_texture_lod_bias
Allows mipmapped texture blurring and sharpening.
GLX_EXT_visual_rating extension
This extension has no effect in stand-alone Mesa (used for DRI).
GL_HP_occlusion_test
Used for bounding box occlusion testing (see demos/occlude.c).
GL_SGIX_pixel_texture / GL_SGIS_pixel_texture
Lets glDraw/CopyPixels draw a texture coordinate image.
GL_SGI_color_matrix
Adds a color matrix and another set of scale and bias parameters
to the glDraw/CopyPixels paths.
GL_SGI_color_table
Adds additional color tables to the glDraw/Read/CopyPixels paths.
GL_EXT_histogram
Compute histograms for glDraw/Read/CopyPixels.
GL_EXT_blend_func_separate
This is the same as GL_INGR_blend_func_separate.
GL_ARB_texture_cube_mapping
6-face cube mapping, nicer than sphere mapping
GL_EXT_texture_env_combine
For advanced texture environment effects.
Documentation for all these functions can be found at
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/registry/
GLX_SGI_make_current_read functionality
---------------------------------------
The functionality of this extension is needed for GLX 1.3 (and required
for the Linux/OpenGL standards base).
Implementing this function required a **DEVICE DRIVER CHANGE**.
The old SetBuffer() function has been replaced by SetReadBuffer() and
SetDrawBuffer(). All device drivers will have to be updated because
of this change.
The new function, glXMakeContextCurrent(), in GLX 1.3 now works in Mesa.
The xdemos/wincopy.c program demonstrates it.
Image-related code changes
--------------------------
The imaging path code used by glDrawPixels, glTexImage[123]D,
glTexSubImage[123], etc has been rewritten. It's now faster,
uses less memory and has several bug fixes. This work was
actually started in Mesa 3.1 with the glTexImage paths but has now
been carried over to glDrawPixels as well.
Device driver interface changes
-------------------------------
Added new functions for hardware stencil buffer support:
WriteStencilSpan
ReadStencilSpan
WriteStencilPixels
ReadStencilPixels
Removed old depth buffer functions:
AllocDepthBuffer
DepthTestSpan
DepthTestPixels
ReadDepthSpanFloat
ReadDepthSpanInt
Added new depth buffer functions:
WriteDepthSpan
ReadDepthSpan
WriteDepthPixels
ReadDepthPixels
These functions always read/write 32-bit GLuints. This will allow
drivers to have anywhere from 0 to 32-bit Z buffers without
recompiling for 16 vs 32 bits as was previously needed.
New texture image functions
The entire interface for texture image specification has been updated.
With the new functions, it's optional for Mesa to keep an internal copy
of all textures. Texture download should be a lot faster when the extra
copy isn't made.
Misc changes
TexEnv now takes a target argument
Removed UseGlobalTexturePalette (use Enable function instead)
Also added
ReadPixels
CopyPixels
The SetBufffer function has been replaced by SetDrawBuffer and
SetReadBuffer functions. This lets core Mesa independently
specify which buffer is to be used for reading and which for
drawing.
The Clear function's mask parameter has changed. Instead of
mask being the flags specified by the user to glClear, the
mask is now a bitmask of the DD_*_BIT flags in dd.h. Now
multiple color buffers can be specified for clearing (ala
glDrawBuffers). The driver's Clear function must also
check the glColorMask glIndexMask, and glStencilMask settings
and do the right thing. See the X/Mesa, OS/Mesa, or FX/Mesa
drivers for examples.
The depth buffer changes shouldn't be hard to make for existing
drivers. In fact, it should simply the code. Be careful with
the depthBits value passed to gl_create_context(). 1 is a bad
value! It should normally be 0, 16, 24, or 32.
gl_create_framebuffer() takes new arguments which explicitly tell
core Mesa which ancillary buffers (depth, stencil, accum, alpha)
should be implemented in software. Mesa hardware drivers should
carefully set these flags depending on which buffers are in the
graphics card.
Internal constants
------------------
Point and line size range and granularity limits are now stored
in the gl_constants struct, which is the Const member of GLcontext.
The limits are initialized from values in config.h but may be
overridden by device drivers to reflect the limits of that driver's
hardware.
Also added constants for NumAuxBuffers and SubPixelBits.
OpenGL Conformance
------------------
Mesa now passes all the OpenGL 1.1 conformance tests, except for
antialiased lines. AA lines fail on some, but not all, the tests.
In order to fix the remaining failures, a new AA line algorithm will
be needed (which computes coverage values for end-point fragments).
This will be done for Mesa 3.5/3.6.
OpenGL 1.2 GL_ARB_imaging subset
--------------------------------
Mesa 3.3 implements all the features of GL_ARB_imaging except for
image convolution. This will (hopefully) be done for Mesa 3.5/3.6.

Mesa 3.5 release notes
June 21, 2001
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 3.5) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 3.4) designate stable releases.
The biggest change in Mesa 3.5 is a complete overhaul of the source
code in order to make it more modular. This was driven by the DRI
hardware drivers. It simplifies the DRI drivers and opens the door
to hardware transform/clip/lighting (TCL). Keith Whitwell can take
the credit for that.
Driver Support
--------------
The device driver interface in Mesa 3.5 has changed a lot since Mesa 3.4
Not all of the older Mesa drivers have been updated. Here's the status:
Driver Status
---------------------- -----------
XMesa (Xlib) updated
OSMesa (off-screen) updated
FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) updated
SVGA updated
GGI not updated
Windows/Win32 not updated
DOS/DJGPP not updated
BeOS not updated
Allegro not updated
D3D not updated
DOS not updated
We're looking for volunteers to update the remaining drivers. Please
post to the Mesa3d-dev mailing list if you can help.
GLU 1.3
-------
Mesa 3.5 includes the SGI Sample Implementation (SI) GLU library.
This version of GLU supports the GLU 1.3 specification. The old
Mesa GLU library implemented the 1.1 specification. The SI GLU
library should work much better.
You'll need a C++ compiler to compile the SI GLU library. This may
be a problem on some systems.
New Extensions
--------------
GL_EXT_convolution
Adds image convolution to glRead/Copy/DrawPixels/TexImage.
GL_ARB_imaging
This is the optional imaging subset of OpenGL 1.2.
It's the GL_EXT_convolution, GL_HP_convolution_border_modes,
GL_EXT_histogram, GL_EXT_color_table, GL_EXT_color_subtable
GL_EXT_blend_color, GL_EXT_blend_minmax, GL_EXT_blend_subtract
and GL_SGI_color_matrix extensions all rolled together.
This is supported in all software renderers but not in all
hardware drivers (3dfx for example).
GL_ARB_texture_compression
This is supported in Mesa but only used by the 3dfx DRI drivers
for Voodoo4 and later.
GL_ARB_texture_env_add
This is identical to GL_EXT_texture_env_add.
GL_NV_blend_square
Adds extra blend source and dest factors which allow squaring
of color values.
GL_EXT_fog_coord
Allows specification of a per-vertex fog coordinate instead of
having fog always computed from the eye distance.
GL_EXT_secondary_color
Allows specifying the secondary (specular) color for each vertex
instead of getting it only from lighting in GL_SEPARATE_SPECULAR_COLOR
mode.
GL_ARB_texture_env_combine
Basically the same as GL_EXT_texture_env_combine
GL_ARB_texture_env_add extension
Texture addition mode.
GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3 extension
Dot product texture environment.
GL_ARB_texture_border_clamp
Adds GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER_ARB texture wrap mode
GL_SGIX_depth_texture, GL_SGIX_shadow and GL_SGIX_shadow_ambient
Implements a shadow casting algorithm based on depth map textures
GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap
Automatically generate lower mipmap images whenever the base mipmap
image is changed with glTexImage, glCopyTexImage, etc.
libOSMesa.so
------------
libOSMesa.so is a new library which contains the OSMesa interface for
off-screen rendering. Apps which need the OSMesa interface should link
with both -lOSMesa and -lGL. This change was made so that stand-alone
Mesa works the same way as XFree86/DRI's libGL.
Device Driver Changes / Core Mesa Changes
-----------------------------------------
The ctx->Driver.LogicOp() function has been removed. It used to
be called during state update in order to determine if the driver
could do glLogicOp() operations, and if not, set the SWLogicOpEnabled
flag. Drivers should instead examine the LogicOp state themselves
and choose specialized point, line, and triangle functions appropriately,
or fall back to software rendering. The Xlib driver was the only driver
to use this function. And since the Xlib driver no longer draws
points, lines or triangles using Xlib, the LogicOp function isn't needed.
The ctx->Driver.Dither() function has been removed. Drivers should
detect dither enable/disable via ctx->Driver.Enable() instead.
The ctx->Driver.IndexMask() and ctx->Driver.ColorMask() functions
are now just called from glIndexMask and glColorMask like the other
GL state-changing functions. They are no longer called from inside
gl_update_state(). Also, they now return void. The change was made
mostly for sake of uniformity.
The NEW_DRVSTATE[0123] flags have been removed. They weren't being used
and are obsolete w.r.t. the way state updates are done in DRI drivers.
Removed obsolete gl_create_visual() and gl_destroy_visual().
Renamed functions (new namespace):
old new
gl_create_framebuffer _mesa_create_framebuffer
gl_destroy_framebuffer _mesa_destroy_framebuffer
gl_create_context _mesa_create_context
gl_destroy_context _mesa_destroy_context
gl_context_initialize _mesa_context_initialize
gl_copy_context _mesa_copy_context
gl_make_current _mesa_make_current
gl_make_current2 _mesa_make_current2
gl_get_current_context _mesa_get_current_context
gl_flush_vb _mesa_flush_vb
gl_warning _mesa_warning
gl_compile_error _mesa_compile_error
All the drivers have been updated, but not all of them have been
tested since I can't test some platforms (DOS, Windows, Allegro, etc).
X/Mesa Driver
-------------
The source files for the X/Mesa driver in src/X have been renamed.
The xmesa[1234].c files are gone. The new files are xm_api.c,
xm_dd.c, xm_line.c, xm_span.c and xm_tri.c.
Multitexture
------------
Eight texture units are now supported by default.
OpenGL SI related changes
-------------------------
In an effort to make Mesa's internal interfaces more like the OpenGL
SI interfaces, a number of changes have been made:
1. Importing the SI's glcore.h file which defines a number of
interface structures like __GLimports and __GLexports.
2. Renamed "struct gl_context" to "struct __GLcontextRec".
3. Added __glCoreCreateContext() and __glCoreNopDispatch() functions.
4. The GLcontext member Visual is no longer a pointer.
5. New file: imports.c to setup default import functions for Mesa.
16-bit color channels
---------------------
There's experimental support for 16-bit color channels (64-bit pixels)
in Mesa 3.5. Only the OSMesa interface can be used for 16-bit rendering.
Type "make linux-osmesa16" in the top-level directory to build the
special libOSMesa16.so library.
This hasn't been tested very thoroughly yet so please file bug reports
if you have trouble.
In the future I hope to implement support for 32-bit, floating point
color channels.

Mesa 4.0 release notes
October 18, 2001
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 3.3) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 3.4) designate stable releases.
Mesa version 4.0 signifies two things:
1. A stabilization of the 3.5 development release
2. Implementation of the OpenGL 1.3 specification
Note that the Mesa major version number is incremented with the OpenGL
minor version number:
Mesa 1.x == OpenGL 1.0
Mesa 2.x == OpenGL 1.1
Mesa 3.x == OpenGL 1.2
Mesa 4.x == OpenGL 1.3
New Features
------------
Mesa 3.5 already had all the new features of OpenGL 1.3, implemented as
extensions. These extensions were simply promoted to standard features:
GL_ARB_multisample
GL_ARB_multitexture
GL_ARB_texture_border_clamp
GL_ARB_texture_compression
GL_ARB_texture_cube_map
GL_ARB_texture_env_add
GL_ARB_texture_env_combine
GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3
GL_ARB_transpose_matrix
In Mesa 4.0 the functions defined by these extensions are now available
without the "ARB" suffix. For example, glLoadTransposeMatrixf() is now
a standard API function. The new functions in OpenGL 1.3 and Mesa 4.0 are:
glActiveTexture
glClientActiveTexture
glCompressedTexImage1D
glCompressedTexImage2D
glCompressedTexImage3D
glCompressedTexSubImage1D
glCompressedTexSubImage2D
glCompressedTexSubImage3D
glGetCompressedTexImage
glLoadTransposeMatrixd
glLoadTransposeMatrixf
glMultiTexCoord1d
glMultiTexCoord1dv
glMultiTexCoord1f
glMultiTexCoord1fv
glMultiTexCoord1i
glMultiTexCoord1iv
glMultiTexCoord1s
glMultiTexCoord1sv
glMultiTexCoord2d
glMultiTexCoord2dv
glMultiTexCoord2f
glMultiTexCoord2fv
glMultiTexCoord2i
glMultiTexCoord2iv
glMultiTexCoord2s
glMultiTexCoord2sv
glMultiTexCoord3d
glMultiTexCoord3dv
glMultiTexCoord3f
glMultiTexCoord3fv
glMultiTexCoord3i
glMultiTexCoord3iv
glMultiTexCoord3s
glMultiTexCoord3sv
glMultiTexCoord4d
glMultiTexCoord4dv
glMultiTexCoord4f
glMultiTexCoord4fv
glMultiTexCoord4i
glMultiTexCoord4iv
glMultiTexCoord4s
glMultiTexCoord4sv
glMultTransposeMatrixd
glMultTransposeMatrixf
glSampleCoverage
glSamplePass
GLX 1.4 is the companion to OpenGL 1.3. The only new features in GLX 1.4
are support for multisampling and the GLX_ARB_get_proc_address extension.
glXGetProcAddress() is the only new function in GLX 1.4.
Multisample and Texture Compression
-----------------------------------
The OpenGL 1.3 specification allows the multisample and texture compression
features to essentially be no-ops. For example, if you query for multisample
support you'll find none, but the API functions work.
Similarly, texture compression is not implemented by any of the software
drivers but you can specify a generic compressed texture format (like
GL_COMPRESSED_RGBA) to glTexImage2D and it'll be accepted.
Device Drivers
--------------
Mesa advertises itself as either OpenGL 1.2 or OpenGL 1.3 depending on the
device driver. If the driver enables all the ARB extensions which are part
of OpenGL 1.3 then glGetString(GL_VERSION) will return "1.3". Otherwise,
it'll return "1.2".
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of the drivers.
Here's the current status of all included drivers:
Driver Status
---------------------- ---------------------
XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.3
OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.3

Mesa 4.1 release notes
October 29, 2002
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Even numbered versions (such as 4.0) designate stable releases.
Odd numbered versions (such as 4.1) designate new developmental releases.
New Features in Mesa 4.1
------------------------
New extensions. Docs at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/registry/
GL_NV_vertex_program
NVIDIA's vertex programming extension
GL_NV_vertex_program1_1
A few features built on top of GL_NV_vertex_program
GL_ARB_window_pos
This is the ARB-approved version of GL_MESA_window_pos
GL_ARB_depth_texture
This is the ARB-approved version of GL_SGIX_depth_texture.
It allows depth (Z buffer) data to be stored in textures.
This is used by GL_ARB_shadow
GL_ARB_shadow
Shadow mapping with depth textures.
This is the ARB-approved version of GL_SGIX_shadow.
GL_ARB_shadow_ambient
Allows one to specify the luminance of shadowed pixels.
This is the ARB-approved version of GL_SGIX_shadow_ambient.
GL_EXT_shadow_funcs
Extends the set of GL_ARB_shadow texture comparision functions to
include all eight of standard OpenGL dept-test functions.
GL_ARB_point_parameters
This is basically the same as GL_EXT_point_parameters.
GL_ARB_texture_env_crossbar
Allows any texture combine stage to reference any texture source unit.
GL_NV_point_sprite
For rendering points as textured quads. Useful for particle effects.
GL_NV_texture_rectangle (new in 4.0.4 actually)
Allows one to use textures with sizes that are not powers of two.
Note that mipmapping and several texture wrap modes are not allowed.
GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays
Allows arrays of vertex arrays to be rendered with one call.
GL_EXT_stencil_two_side
Separate stencil modes for front and back-facing polygons.
GLX_SGIX_fbconfig & GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
Off-screen rendering support.
GL_ATI_texture_mirror_once
Adds two new texture wrap modes: GL_MIRROR_CLAMP_ATI and
GL_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE_ATI.
Device Driver Status
--------------------
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of these drivers.
Here's the current status of all included drivers:
Driver Status
---------------------- ---------------------
XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.3
OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.3
FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3
SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3
Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3
Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.3
DOS/DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.3
GGI implements OpenGL 1.3
BeOS needs updating (underway)
Allegro needs updating
D3D needs updating
DOS needs updating
New features in GLUT
--------------------
1. Frames per second printing
GLUT now looks for an environment variable called "GLUT_FPS". If it's
set, GLUT will print out a frames/second statistic to stderr when
glutSwapBuffers() is called. By default, frames/second is computed
and displayed once every 5 seconds. You can specify a different
interval (in milliseconds) when you set the env var. For example
'export GLUT_FPS=1000' or 'setenv GLUT_FPS 1000' will set the interval
to one second.
NOTE: the demo or application must call the glutInit() function for
this to work. Otherwise, the env var will be ignored.
Finally, this feature may not be reliable in multi-window programs.
2. glutGetProcAddress() function
The new function:
void *glutGetProcAddress(const char *procName)
is a wrapper for glXGetProcAddressARB() and wglGetProcAddress(). It
lets you dynamically get the address of an OpenGL function at runtime.
The GLUT_API_VERSION has been bumped to 5, but I haven't bumped the
GLUT version number from 3.7 since that's probably Mark Kilgard's role.
This function should probably also be able to return the address of
GLUT functions themselves, but it doesn't do that yet.
XXX Things To Do Yet XXXX
-------------------------
isosurf with vertex program exhibits some missing triangles (probably
when recycling the vertex buffer for long prims).
Porting Info
------------
If you're porting a DRI or other driver from Mesa 4.0.x to Mesa 4.1 here
are some things to change:
1. ctx->Texture._ReallyEnabled is obsolete.
Since there are now 5 texture targets (1D, 2D, 3D, cube and rect) that
left room for only 6 units (6*5 < 32) in this field.
This field is being replaced by ctx->Texture._EnabledUnits which has one
bit per texture unit. If the bit k of _EnabledUnits is set, that means
ctx->Texture.Unit[k]._ReallyEnabled is non-zero. You'll have to look at
ctx->Texture.Unit[k]._ReallyEnabled to learn if the 1D, 2D, 3D, cube or
rect texture is enabled for unit k.
This also means that the constants TEXTURE1_*, TEXTURE2_*, etc are
obsolete.
The tokens TEXTURE0_* have been replaced as well (since there's no
significance to the "0" part:
old token new token
TEXTURE0_1D TEXTURE_1D_BIT
TEXTURE0_2D TEXTURE_2D_BIT
TEXTURE0_3D TEXTURE_3D_BIT
TEXTURE0_CUBE TEXTURE_CUBE_BIT
<none> TEXTURE_RECT_BIT
These tokens are only used for the ctx->Texture.Unit[i].Enabled and
ctx->Texture.Unit[i]._ReallyEnabled fields. Exactly 0 or 1 bits will
be set in _ReallyEnabled at any time!
Q: "What's the purpose of Unit[i].Enabled vs Unit[i]._ReallyEnabled?"
A: The user can enable GL_TEXTURE_1D, GL_TEXTURE_2D, etc for any
texure unit all at once (an unusual thing to do).
OpenGL defines priorities that basically say GL_TEXTURE_2D has
higher priority than GL_TEXTURE_1D, etc. Also, just because a
texture target is enabled by the user doesn't mean we'll actually
use that texture! If a texture object is incomplete (missing mip-
map levels, etc) it's as if texturing is disabled for that target.
The _ReallyEnabled field will have a bit set ONLY if the texture
target is enabled and complete. This spares the driver writer from
examining a _lot_ of GL state to determine which texture target is
to be used.
2. Tnl tokens changes
During the implementation of GL_NV_vertex_program some of the vertex
buffer code was changed. Specifically, the VERT_* bits defined in
tnl/t_context.h have been renamed to better match the conventions of
GL_NV_vertex_program. The old names are still present but obsolete.
Drivers should use the newer names.
For example: VERT_RGBA is now VERT_BIT_COLOR0 and
VERT_SPEC_RGB is now VERT_BIT_COLOR1.
3. Read/Draw Buffer changes
The business of setting the current read/draw buffers in Mesa 4.0.x
was complicated. It's much simpler now in Mesa 4.1.
Here are the changes:
- Renamed ctx->Color.DrawDestMask to ctx->Color._DrawDestMask
- Removed ctx->Color.DriverDrawBuffer
- Removed ctx->Pixel.DriverReadBuffer
- Removed ctx->Color.MultiDrawBuffer
- Removed ctx->Driver.SetDrawBuffer()
- Removed swrast->Driver.SetReadBuffer().
- Added ctx->Color._DrawDestMask - a bitmask of FRONT/BACK_LEFT/RIGHT_BIT
values to indicate the current draw buffers.
- Added ctx->Pixel._ReadSrcMask to indicate the source for pixel reading.
The value is _one_ of the FRONT/BACK_LEFT/RIGHT_BIT values.
- Added ctx->Driver.DrawBuffer() and ctx->Driver.ReadBuffer().
These functions exactly correspond to glDrawBuffer and glReadBuffer calls.
Many drivers will set ctx->Driver.DrawBuffer = _swrast_DrawBuffer and
leave ctx->Draw.ReadBuffer NULL.
DRI drivers should implement their own function for ctx->Driver.DrawBuffer
and use it to set the current hardware drawing buffer. You'll probably
also want to check for GL_FRONT_AND_BACK mode and fall back to software.
Call _swrast_DrawBuffer() too, to update the swrast state.
- Added swrast->Driver.SetBuffer().
This function should be implemented by all device drivers that use swrast.
Mesa will call it to specify the buffer to use for span reading AND
writing and point/line/triangle rendering.
There should be no confusion between current read or draw buffer anymore.
- Added swrast->CurrentBuffer to indicate which color buffer to read/draw.
Will be FRONT_LEFT_BIT, BACK_LEFT_BIT, FRONT_RIGHT_BIT or BACK_RIGHT_BIT.
This value is usually passed to swrast->Driver.SetBuffer().
4. _mesa_create_context() changes. This function now takes a pointer to
a __GLimports object. The __GLimports structure contains function
pointers to system functions like fprintf(), malloc(), etc.
The _mesa_init_default_imports() function can be used to initialize
a __GLimports object. Most device drivers (like the DRI drivers)
should use this.
5. In tnl's struct vertex_buffer, the field "ProjectedClipCoords"
has been replaced by "NdcPtr" to better match the OpenGL spec's
terminology.
6. Since GL_EXT_stencil_two_side has been implemented, many of the
ctx->Stencil fields are now 2-element arrays. For example,
"GLenum Ref" is now "GLenum Ref[2]" The [0] elements are the front-face
values and the [1] elements are the back-face values.
ctx->Stencil.ActiveFace is 0 or 1 to indicate the current face for
the glStencilOp/Func/Mask() functions.
ctx->Stencil.TestTwoSide controls whether or not 1 or 2-sided stenciling
is enabled.
7. Removed ctx->Polygon._OffsetAny. Removed ctx->Polygon.OffsetMRD.
8. GLfloat / GLchan changes:
- Changed ctx->Driver.ClearColor() to take GLfloat[4] instead of GLchan[4].
ctx->Color.ClearColor is now GLfloat[4] too.
- Changed ctx->Driver.AlphaRef() to take GLfloat instead of GLchan.
- ctx->Color.AlphaRef is now GLfloat.
- texObj->BorderColor is now GLfloat[4]. texObj->_BorderChan is GLchan[4].
This is part of an effort to remove all GLchan types from core Mesa so
that someday we can support 8, 16 and 32-bit color channels dynamically
at runtime, instead of at compile-time.
9. GLboolean ctx->Tranform.ClipEnabled[MAX_CLIP_PLANES] has been replaced
by GLuint ctx->Transform.ClipPlanesEnabled. The later is a bitfield.
10. There's a new matrix_stack type in mtypes.h used for the Modelview,
Projection, Color and Texcoord matrix stacks.
11. The ctx->Current.* fields have changed a lot. Now, there's a
ctx->Current.Attrib[] array for all vertex attributes which matches
the NV vertex program conventions.

PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction

Odd-numbered versions (such as 5.1) designate new developmental releases.
Bug fixes
---------
See the VERSIONS file for a list of bugs fixed in this release.
New Features in Mesa 5.1
------------------------
GL_ARB_vertex_program / GL_ARB_fragment_program
Michal Krol and Karl Rasche implemented these extensions. Thanks!
Be aware that there may be some rough edges and lurking bugs.
GL_ATI_texture_env_combine3 extension
This adds a few new texture combine modes.
Contributed by Ian Romanick.
GL_SGI_texture_color_table
Adds a color table lookup to the RGBA texture path. There's a separate
color table for each texture unit.
Contributed by Eric Plante.
GL_NV_fragment_program
NVIDIA's fragment-level programming feature.
Possible lurking bugs:
- the DDX and DDY commands aren't fully tested
- there may be bugs in the parser
- the TEX and TXP instructions both do perspective correction
- the pack/unpack instructions may not be correct
GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test
This extension adds a scissor-like test for the Z axis. It's used to
optimize stencil-volume shadow algorithms.
GL_NV_light_max_exponent
Lifts the 128 limit for max light exponent.
GL_EXT_texture_rectangle
Identical to GL_NV_texture_rectangle
GL_ARB_occlusion_query
Useful for visibility-based culling.
GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two
Removes the restriction that texture dimensions must be powers of two.
GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object
Allows server-side vertex arrays, optimized host/card data transfers, etc.
GL_ARB_point_sprite
ARB-approved version of GL_NV_point_sprite. Basically allows textures
to be applied to points.
GL_IBM_multimode_draw_arrays
Allows multiple vertex arrays to be drawn with one call, including arrays
of different types of primitives.
GL_SUN_multi_draw_arrays
An alias for GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays, standard in OpenGL 1.4.
Faster glDrawPixels / glCopyPixels in X11 driver
If your X screen is 32bpp, glDrawPixels to the front color buffer will
be accelerated (via XPutImage()) if the image format is GL_BGRA and the
type is GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE. No raster operations, such as depth test,
blend, fog, etc. can be enabled.
If your X screen is 16bpp, glDrawPixels to the front color buffer will
be accelerated (via XPutImage()) if the image format is GL_RGB and the
type is GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5. No raster operations, such as depth
test, blend, fog, etc. can be enabled.
glCopyPixels() calls for the front color buffer will be accelerated
(via XCopyArea()) if no raster operations, such as depth test, blend,
fog, pixel zoom, etc. are enabled.
The speed-up over typical software rendering is a factor of 10 for
glDrawPixels and 100 for glCopyPixels.
With the addition of GL_ARB_occlusion_query, GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object,
GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two and GL_EXT_shadow_funcs, Mesa 5.1 supports
all the new features of OpenGL 1.5. Mesa 6.0 (the next stable release)
will advertise GL_VERSION = "1.5".
Vertex/Fragment program debugger
--------------------------------
GL_MESA_program_debug is an experimental extension to support
interactive debugging of vertex and fragment programs. See the
docs/specs/OLD/MESA_program_debug.spec file for details.
The bulk of the vertex/fragment program debugger is implemented
outside of Mesa. The GL_MESA_program_debug extension just has minimal
hooks for stopping running programs and inspecting programs.
The progs/tests/debugger.c (only in CVS) program is an example of how
the extension can be used. Presently, the debugger code and demo code
is in the same file. Eventually the debugger code should be moved
into a reusable module.
As it is now, the demo lets you set breakpoings in vertex/fragment
programs, single step, and print intermediate register values. It's
basically just a proof of concept.
Directory tree reorganization
-----------------------------
The directory structure for Mesa has been overhauled to improve its layout.
All source code for Mesa, GLU, GLUT, etc is now under the src/ directory
in appropriate subdirectories.
The Mesa source code and drivers has been reorganized under src/mesa/.
All demonstration programs and tests are now in subdirectories under progs/.
Build System Changes
--------------------
The GNU automake/autoconf support has been removed. As it was, it seldom
worked on anything but Linux. The Mesa developers aren't big fans of
automake/autoconf/libtool and didn't have the time to maintain it.
If someone wants to contribute new automake/autoconf support (and is
willing to maintain it), it may be re-incorporated into Mesa, subject
to some requirements.
The "old style" makefile system has been updated:
1. Make-config has been trimmed down to fewer, modern configurations.
2. Most of the bin/mklib.* scripts have been rolled into a new "mklib"
script that works on all sorts of systems. There are probably some
bugs in it, but it's been tested on Linux, SunOS 5.8 and IRIX 6.5.
Improvements/contributes are greatly appreciated.
3. The Makefile.X11 files have been cleaned up in various ways
Source File Changes
-------------------
The mmath.[ch] files are obsolete. Their contents have been moved
into the imports.[ch] and macros.[ch] files.
The files related to vertex and fragment programming have changed.
Old files:
vpexec.[ch]
vpparse.[ch]
vpstate.[ch]
New files:
program.[ch] - generic ARB/NV program code
arbprogram.[ch] - ARB program API functions
arbfragparse.[ch] - ARB fragment program parsing
arbvertparse.[ch] - ARB vertex program parsing
arbparse.[ch] - ARB vertex/fragment parsing
arbparse_syn.h - vertex/fragment program syntax
nvprogram.[ch] - NV program API functions
nvvertprog.h - NV vertex program definitions
nvfragprog.h - NV fragment program definitions
nvvertparse.[ch] - NV vertex program parser
nvfragparse.[ch] - NV fragment program parser
nvvertexec.[ch] - NV vertex program execution
swrast/s_nvfragprog.[ch] - NV fragment program execution
The files related to per-vertex handling have changed.
Old files:
tnl/t_eval_api.c - old per-vertex code
tnl/t_imm_alloc.c - old per-vertex code
tnl/t_imm_api.c - old per-vertex code
tnl/t_imm_debug.c - old per-vertex code
tnl/t_imm_dlist.c - old per-vertex code

tnl/t_save_loopback.c - new per-vertex code
tnl/t_save_playback.c - new per-vertex code
tnl/t_vtx_eval.c - old per-vertex code
Other new files:
bufferobj.[ch] - GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object functions
version.h - defines the Mesa version info
Other removed files:
swrast/s_histogram.[ch] - moved into src/histogram.c
Other Changes
-------------
The ctx->Driver.CreateTexture function has been removed - it wasn't used.
New device driver hook functions:
NewTextureObject - used to allocate struct gl_texture_objects
NewTextureImage - used to allocate struct gl_texture_images
New ctx->Texture._EnabledCoordUnits field:
With the addition of GL_NV_fragment_program we may need to interpolate
various sets of texture coordinates even when the corresponding texture
unit is not enabled. That is, glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_xD) may never get
called but we still may have to interpolate texture coordinates across
triangles so that the fragment program will get them.
This new field indicates which sets of texture coordinates are needed.
If a bit is set in the ctx->Texture._EnabledUnits bitmask is set, the
same bit MUST be set in ctx->Texture._EnabledCoordUnits.
The ctx->_TriangleCaps field is deprecated.
Instead of testing the DD_* bits in _TriangleCaps, you should instead
directly test the relevant state variables, or use one of the helper
functions like NEED_SECONDARY_COLOR() at the bottom of context.h
While testing _TriangleCaps bits was fast, it was kludgey, and setting
the bits in the first place could be error prone.
New vertex processing code.
The code behind glBegin, glEnd, glVertex, glNormal, etc. has been
totally rewritten. It's a cleaner implementation now and should use
less memory. (Keith)
To Do

Add screen-awareness to fakeglx.c

Mesa 6.0 release notes
January 16, 2004
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 5.1) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.0) designate stable releases.
Mesa version 6.0 signifies two things:
1. A stabilization of the 5.1 development release
2. Implementation of the OpenGL 1.5 specification. When you query
glGetString(GL_VERSION) "1.5" will be returned (as long as the
driver supports all the required features).
Note that the Mesa major version number is incremented with the OpenGL
minor version number:
Mesa 1.x == OpenGL 1.0
Mesa 2.x == OpenGL 1.1
Mesa 3.x == OpenGL 1.2
Mesa 4.x == OpenGL 1.3
Mesa 5.x == OpenGL 1.4
Mesa 6.x == OpenGL 1.5
New Features
------------
Mesa 5.1 already had all the new features of OpenGL 1.5, implemented as
extensions. These extensions were simply promoted to standard features:
GL_ARB_occlusion_query extension
GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two extension
GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object extension
GL_EXT_shadow_funcs
Device Drivers
--------------
Mesa advertises itself as either OpenGL 1.2 or OpenGL 1.3 depending on
the device driver. For example, if the driver enables all the ARB
extensions which are part of OpenGL 1.3 then glGetString(GL_VERSION)
will return "1.3". Otherwise, it'll return "1.2".
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of the drivers.
Here's the current status of all included drivers:

Mesa 6.0.1 release notes
April 2, 2003
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Even-numbered versions (such as 6.0.x) designate stable releases.
Odd-numbered versions (such as 6.1.x) designate new developmental releases.
Mesa 6.0.1 just fixes bugs found since the 6.0 release. See the VERSIONS
file for details.
Device Drivers
--------------
Mesa advertises itself as supporting OpenGL 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5
depending on the device driver's capabilities. For example, if the
driver enables all the ARB extensions which are part of OpenGL 1.5
then glGetString(GL_VERSION) will return "1.5". Otherwise, it'll

Mesa 6.1 release notes
August 18, 2004
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.1) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.0) designate stable releases.
New Features
------------
Half-precision floating point (GLhalf) pixel formats are supported
in Mesa, but the feature isn't exposed yet since the ARB extension
hasn't been finalized yet.
Texture image handling
----------------------
The code which implements image conversion, pixel transfer ops, etc
for glTexImage commands has been rewritten.
Now the gl_texture_format struct has a new StoreImage function
pointer. Each texture format must implement this function. The
function is totally responsible for converting the user's texture
image into the specific format. A few helper functions makes this
relatively simple.
Overall, the code is much simpler, cleaner and easier to work with
now. Adding new texture formats is straight-forward and there's no
longer any distinction between "hardware" and "software" formats.
Finally, the code for compressed texture images has been reorganized
as well.
Removed files:
texutil.c
texutil.h
texutil_tmp.h
New files:
texcompress_s3tc.c
texcompress_fxt1.c
Driver / context changes
------------------------
The _mesa_create_context() and _mesa_initialize_context() function
parameters have changed. They now take a pointer to a struct
dd_function_table. Drivers can initialize this table by calling
_mesa_init_driver_functions(). Drivers should then plug in the special
functions they implement. In particular, the ctx->Driver.NewTextureObject
pointer _must_ be set so that the default texture objects created in
_mesa_create/initialize_context() are correctly built.
The _mesa_init_driver_functions() function allows a lot of redundant code
to be removed from the device drivers (such as initializing
ctx->Driver.Accum to point to _swrast_Accum). Adding new functions to
the dd_function_table can be done with less hassle since the pointer can
be initialized in _mesa_init_driver_functions() rather than in _all_ the
drivers.
Device Drivers
--------------
Mesa advertises itself as supporting OpenGL 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5
depending on the device driver's capabilities. For example, if the
driver enables all the ARB extensions which are part of OpenGL 1.5
then glGetString(GL_VERSION) will return "1.5". Otherwise, it'll
return "1.4" or the next lower version that implements all required
functionality.
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of the drivers.

Mesa 6.2 release notes
October 2, 2004
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.1) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.2) designate stable releases.
This release primarily just fixes bugs found in the Mesa 6.1 release.
See the VERSIONS file for details.
ToDo: PBO for polygon stipple, convolution filter, etc.
Known Issues
------------
The GL_EXT_pixel_buffer_object extension isn't fully implemented for
functions like glPolygonStipple, glConvolutionFilter, glColorTable,
etc. The important functions like glRead/DrawPixels, glTex[Sub]Image,
and glBitmap work with PBOs.

Mesa 6.3 release notes
July 20, 2005
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.3) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 6.2) designate stable releases.
New Features
------------
GL_ARB_draw_buffers - allows a fragment program to write to a number of
separate color buffers, instead of just one.
GL_OES_read_format - allows one to query the fastest glReadPixels format
and datatype.
GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object - buffer objects for pixel read/write functions.
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object - allows render-to-texture and provides a
window-system indepedent Pbuffer facility.
The Mesa CVS tree contains a couple tests of this extension.
DirectFB driver, contributed by Claudio Ciccani. See docs/README.directfb
for details.
Vertex/Fragment Program PRINT Instruction
-----------------------------------------
The GL_NV_vertex_program and GL_NV_fragment_program languages have been
extended with a PRINT instruction.
glDeleteTextures(), glDeletePrograms() and glDeleteBuffers() Changed
--------------------------------------------------------------------
To match the behaviour of other OpenGL implementations, glDeleteTextures,
glDeletePrograms and glDeleteBuffers have been modified so that:
* The named texture/program/buffer ID is immediately freed for re-use.
* The actual texture object, program or buffers isn't really deleted until
it is no longer bound in any rendering context (the reference count
is zero).
Previously, the texture/program/buffer ID wasn't freed until the object
was really deleted.
Note that textures, programs and buffers can be shared by several rendering
contexts so they can't be deleted until they're unbound in _all_ contexts.
GL_EXT_framebuffer_object changes
---------------------------------
Implementing this extension involved changing a lot of code (for the better).
The gl_framebuffer object now a collection of gl_renderbuffer objects.
Renderbuffers may store colors, stencil indices, or depth values. The
gl_framebuffer and gl_renderbuffer types are object-oriented in design.
All the old RGB, color index, stencil and depth-related span functions for
reading/writing pixels from/to buffers has changed. Now, all pixels are
read/written through a set of common renderbuffer functions (methods).
Most device drivers have been updated for these changes, but some haven't.
To Do (someday) items
---------------------
Switch to freeglut
Increase MAX_DRAWBUFFERS
driver hooks for BeginQuery/EndQuery
Miscellaneous
-------------
The main/get.c file is now generated with a Python script (get_gen.py).
