One of the uglier bits of the classic drivers, in my opinion, is the ChooseTexFormat hook. Most drivers are trying to get to a similar set of formats, and using similar fallbacks for unavailable formats. Worse, they need to cleverly choose formats based on the incoming type/format to avoid having to munge the data on the way in if possible, and everyone needs to work those out. So, rather than having each driver have these smarts, move it to the core.
There are still some rough edges. There are not enough fallbacks yet to cover everything (see i810 for example), so drivers with a more restricted set of supported formats may need to add more lines to _mesa_choose_tex_format. Also, the endianness-dependent choice of formats in texmem.c and radeon's texturing isn't merged -- I knew I'd mess it up somehow if I did it on my own, so I'm leaving radeon for someone with big-endian to finish off. Any complaints, or should I go ahead and merge this? _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
