Hi Roland,
The fast color clear on Radeon doesn't touch the memory of the texture
resource. Instead, it changes some GPU meta data that say the resource
is cleared (the location of the meta data is stored in pipe_resource).
This works fine as long as the gallium pipe_resource structure is used
for accessing the resource. That's not the case with the DDX, which is
responsible for putting the resource on the screen and it obviously
has no idea about the contents of pipe_resource, so it doesn't know
that the resource is in a cleared state and a special "flush"
operation must be done to actually write the "cleared" pixels (which
haven't been overwritten by new geometry of course).
The easiest way to solve this is to "flush" the cleared resource in
SwapBuffers and where the front buffer is flushed. The Gallium driver
can't do it automatically, because it has no notion of front and back
buffers nor does it know which resource must be "flushed". That's why
a new pipe_context function is being proposed, which was originally my
idea.
This commit only fixes r600g for st/dri. Any other co-state tracker
(like st/egl and st/xlib) will be broken if it's used with r600g. I
think we can ignore st/xlib. Not sure how important st/egl is (not
required for EGL under X).
