Title: glapi_x86.S glx86asm.py





according to its headline glapi_x86.S was generated
by the script glx86asm.py - its just that i cannot
find that script in the XFree86 sources. Any hints?

Remove from the trunk the Mesa files that aren't needed.

Latest entry in cvs log of c/extras/Mesa/src/X86/glapi_x86.S
revision 1.7

Mesa 4.0.2 merge

(So the script glx86asm.py was removed after glapi_x86.S last changed,
which is a good sign).

 really? hmm, if the respective API listing ever changes or extends
 it might be simpler to use an existing script and then submitting the
 results
 than to perform error prone copy and paste operations on the results.

 i mean thats the reason why (possibly Brian Paul) added such a
 highly descriptive headline about that file beeing a generated one.

The file is probably still present in the upstream Mesa source. The Mesa
source in the XFree86 tree is just a copy, which appears to have had some
of the non-relevent stuff cleaned out.

You'd have to ask Brian to be sure, but I believe the intention is that 
if the interface ever changes, a new .S file be generated in the Mesa 
tree and imported to the XFree86  DRI trees.  There should never be a 
case where the .S file would change in XFree86 and not change in Mesa.

agreed, a rational method of doing it.

i just didnt remeber that libGL and Mesa implementation
are maintained elsewhere and are merely contributed parts.
