Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The Gallium llvmpipe driver is a software rasterizer that uses LLVM to
|
|
do runtime code generation. Shaders, point/line/triangle rasterization
|
|
and vertex processing are implemented with LLVM IR which is translated
|
|
to x86, x86-64, or ppc64le machine code. Also, the driver is
|
|
multithreaded to take advantage of multiple CPU cores (up to 8 at this
|
|
time). It's the fastest software rasterizer for Mesa.
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
- For x86 or amd64 processors, 64-bit mode is recommended. Support for
|
|
SSE2 is strongly encouraged. Support for SSE3 and SSE4.1 will yield
|
|
the most efficient code. The fewer features the CPU has the more
|
|
likely it is that you will run into underperforming, buggy, or
|
|
incomplete code.
|
|
|
|
For ppc64le processors, use of the Altivec feature (the Vector
|
|
Facility) is recommended if supported; use of the VSX feature (the
|
|
Vector-Scalar Facility) is recommended if supported AND Mesa is built
|
|
with LLVM version 4.0 or later.
|
|
|
|
See ``/proc/cpuinfo`` to know what your CPU supports.
|
|
|
|
- Unless otherwise stated, LLVM version 3.9 or later is required.
|
|
|
|
For Linux, on a recent Debian based distribution do:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
aptitude install llvm-dev
|
|
|
|
If you want development snapshot builds of LLVM for Debian and
|
|
derived distributions like Ubuntu, you can use the APT repository at
|
|
`apt.llvm.org <https://apt.llvm.org/>`__, which are maintained by
|
|
Debian's LLVM maintainer.
|
|
|
|
For a RPM-based distribution do:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
yum install llvm-devel
|
|
|
|
For Windows you will need to build LLVM from source with MSVC or
|
|
MINGW (either natively or through cross compilers) and CMake, and set
|
|
the ``LLVM`` environment variable to the directory you installed it
|
|
to. LLVM will be statically linked, so when building on MSVC it needs
|
|
to be built with a matching CRT as Mesa, and you'll need to pass
|
|
``-DLLVM_USE_CRT_xxx=yyy`` as described below.
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
You can build only the x86 target by passing
|
|
``-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=X86`` to cmake.
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
To build everything on Linux invoke meson as:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
meson -D glx=gallium-xlib -D gallium-drivers=swrast
|
|
ninja
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Linux
|
|
~~~~~
|
|
|
|
On Linux, building will create a drop-in alternative for ``libGL.so``
|
|
into
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
build/foo/gallium/targets/libgl-xlib/libGL.so
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
lib/gallium/libGL.so
|
|
|
|
To use it set the ``LD_LIBRARY_PATH`` environment variable accordingly.
|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
On Windows, building will create
|
|
``build/windows-x86-debug/gallium/targets/libgl-gdi/opengl32.dll`` which
|
|
is a drop-in alternative for system's ``opengl32.dll``, which will use
|
|
the Mesa ICD, ``build/windows-x86-debug/gallium/targets/wgl/libgallium_wgl.dll``.
|
|
To use it put both dlls in the same directory as your application. It can also
|
|
be used by replacing the native ICD driver, but it's quite an advanced usage, so if
|
|
you need to ask, don't even try it.
|
|
|
|
There is however an easy way to replace the OpenGL software renderer
|
|
that comes with Microsoft Windows 7 (or later) with llvmpipe (that is,
|
|
on systems without any OpenGL drivers):
|
|
|
|
- copy
|
|
``build/windows-x86-debug/gallium/targets/wgl/libgallium_wgl.dll`` to
|
|
``C:\Windows\SysWOW64\mesadrv.dll``
|
|
|
|
- load this registry settings:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|

|
|
; https://www.msfn.org/board/topic/143241-portable-windows-7-build-from-winpe-30/page-5#entry942596
|
|
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\OpenGLDrivers\MSOGL]

|
|
"DriverVersion"=dword:00000001
|
|
"Flags"=dword:00000001
|
|
"Version"=dword:00000002
|
|
|
|
- Ditto for 64 bits drivers if you need them.
|
|
|
|
Profiling
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
Linux perf integration
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
On Linux, it is possible to have symbol resolution of JIT code with
|
|
`Linux perf <https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/>`__:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
perf record -g /my/application
|
|
perf report
|
|
|
|
When run inside Linux perf, llvmpipe will create a
|
|
``/tmp/perf-XXXXX.map`` file with symbol address table. It also dumps
|
|
assembly code to ``/tmp/perf-XXXXX.map.asm``, which can be used by the
|
|
``bin/perf-annotate-jit.py`` script to produce disassembly of the
|
|
generated code annotated with the samples.
|
|
|
|
You can obtain a call graph via
|
|
`Gprof2Dot <https://github.com/jrfonseca/gprof2dot#linux-perf>`__.
|
|
|
|
Unit testing
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Building will also create several unit tests in
|
|
``build/linux-???-debug/gallium/drivers/llvmpipe``:
|
|
|
|
- ``lp_test_blend``: blending
|
|
- ``lp_test_conv``: SIMD vector conversion
|
|
- ``lp_test_format``: pixel unpacking/packing
|
|
|
|
Some of these tests can output results and benchmarks to a tab-separated
|
|
file for later analysis, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
build/linux-x86_64-debug/gallium/drivers/llvmpipe/lp_test_blend -o blend.tsv
|
|
|
|
Development Notes
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
- When looking at this code for the first time, start in lp_state_fs.c,
|
|
and then skim through the ``lp_bld_*`` functions called there, and
|
|
the comments at the top of the ``lp_bld_*.c`` functions.
|
|
- The driver-independent parts of the LLVM / Gallium code are found in
|
|
``src/gallium/auxiliary/gallivm/``. The filenames and function
|
|
prefixes need to be renamed from ``lp_bld_`` to something else
|
|
though.
|
|
- We use LLVM-C bindings for now. They are not documented, but follow
|
|
the C++ interfaces very closely, and appear to be complete enough for
|
|
code generation. See `this stand-alone
|
|
example <https://npcontemplation.blogspot.com/2008/06/secret-of-llvm-c-bindings.html>`__.
|
|
See the ``llvm-c/Core.h`` file for reference.
