is a very simple& dumb tgsi -> r600 assembler that does work and can run
glxgears
and couple others non textured demos. I want to freeze r600_asm* stuff as i

to reuse at latter point with a proper optimizer (thought there is a couple

thing missing in it like splitting alu node when reaching the 256dwords
limit).
So now if you want to add opcode the only file you need to touch is
r600_shader.c.
Also i would like to avoid any kind of work on optimizing what it spit.
I am going to add texture support over the next few days (target being
tri-tex,
multiarb, tunnel, tunnel2 at that point i think quake engine should run).
Todo list (kind of sorted):
- texture support
- use const buffer rather than cfile
- avoid recompiling the shader at each draw command (would improve speed a
lot)
- stencil support
- support more states (blending, alpha, rasterization, ...)
- geometry shader
- tiling support
- color mask support
- hyperz
- a proper compiler
Feel free to pick something and have fun.
You're awesome as usual. Can we talk about maybe some common
optimizations to r300g and r600g (and maybe others) that can be done
in TGSI? Code sharing is fun, and I *really* don't want to see
features fall by the wayside just because the shader compiler needs
work.
~ C.
When i first looked at optimization i looked at r300 compiler, but
thing is i want to try a different approach that would be very hard
to apply to r300-r500 hw. Basic idea is to do all optimization as
scalar, and repack the instruction after. The repacking is more or
less easy on r6xx and after but it's really tricky on r3xx-r5xx.
Cheers,
Jerome
