An alternative method (flesh out glsl_to_nir to a separate static library) is getting extremely hairy real quick. So be warned if you want to go that route. Then again regardless if one goes the former or latter method, we should really start thinking about getting a common IR (and infra around it) factored out. If we discard GLSL, we also have mesa (prog) IR, which will be extra tricky to get out unless i965_compiler kicks out the dependency of prog_to_nir() and alike. -Emil _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
