Ilia, thanks for the gallium link.
Do you know any links to high level info with broad strokes about how this
sync works? Frankly I do not know driver terminology and wanted to know
more about how this sync is performed for my research. I'm using mesa as a
reference because it has open implementation code. Occlusion query
functionality probably waits for z-buffer to become ready. Problem is that
usual synchronization techniques do not apply here. I'm thinking that
driver code gets notifications about state change. I want to know what kind
of notifications are available? Can query be performed in parallel with
another frame being processed or does it need complete GPU pipeline flush?
Thanks,
Vyacheslav
