I've read your comment several times but I still can't quite understand
the
whole issue.

The intention was that AllocStorage() should never fail because of the
internalFormat value.  We do error checking of internalFormat earlier in
renderbuffer_storage().  Then the driver chooses a hw format that best
matches the requested internalFormat.


The driver is r600g and the format is GL_RGB9_E5
(EXT_texture_shared_exponent). There is sampler support, but no
colorbuffer support. The format is quite special, no other format
matches it well, though I guess any RGB float format would work.
However the spec doesn't require renderbuffer support despite the fact
the format is accepted in glRenderbufferStorage.


This looks like a spec/documentation issue.  The GL 3.0 spec (page 180) says
GL_RGB9_E5 is a texture-only format.  But the GL_EXT_texture_shared_exponent
spec says it's accepted by glRenderbufferStorage.

I just hacked up a quick test for the NVIDIA driver.  Passing GL_RGB9_E5 to
glRenderbufferStorage() generates a GL_INVALID_OPERATION error.

Actually, I take that back. I made a mistake in my test program. GL_INVALID_OPERATION was being generated because of a missing glBindRenderbuffer() call. Grrr.

NVIDIA seems to accept GL_RGB9_E5, GL_R11F_G11F_B10F and GL_RGB10_A2UI as internalFormat. No error is generated. But I get a GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED when I check the framebuffer status.


Mesa will
need some changes if we want to generate the same error, rather than
GL_INVALID_ENUM.

Could you test w/ AMD's driver?

The AMD driver also generates GL_INVALID_OPERATION.

Looks like we should defer specific format checking until FBO validation time.

Still, some Mesa clean-ups are in order...
