Consistent with how we lazily allocate framebuffers this patch allows us
to instantiate textures but still specify constraints and requirements
before allocating storage so that we can be sure to allocate the most
appropriate/efficient storage.
This adds a cogl_texture_allocate() function that is analogous to
cogl_framebuffer_allocate() which can optionally be called to explicitly
allocate storage and catch any errors. If this function isn't used
explicitly then Cogl will implicitly ensure textures are allocated
before the storage is needed.
It is generally recommended to rely on lazy storage allocation or at
least perform explicit allocation as late as possible so Cogl can be
fully informed about the best way to allocate storage.

Note: This reverts the cogl_texture_rectangle_new_with_size API change
that dropped the CoglError argument and keeps the semantics of
allocating the texture immediately. This is because Mutter currently
uses this API so we will probably look at updating this later once
we have a corresponding Mutter patch prepared. The other API changes
were kept since they only affected experimental api.
This splits out the very high level texture constructors that may
internally construct one of several types of lower level texture due to
various constraints.
This also updates the prototypes for these constructors to take an
explicit context pointer and return a CoglError consistent with other
texture constructors.

Until now, we hardcoded the internal format to GL_RGBA and used the
internal format returned by pixel_format_to_gl() as the format for
checking the texture size and format we're asked to create.
Let's use the proper internal format/format from now on.
This is needed as a later patch introduces DEPTH and DEPTH_STENCIL

The coding style has for a long time said to avoid using redundant glib
data types such as gint or gchar etc because we feel that they make the
code look unnecessarily foreign to developers coming from outside of the
Gnome developer community.
Note: When we tried to find the historical rationale for the types we
just found that they were apparently only added for consistent syntax
highlighting which didn't seem that compelling.
Up until now we have been continuing to use some of the platform
specific type such as gint{8,16,32,64} and gsize but this patch switches
us over to using the standard c99 equivalents instead so we can further
ensure that our code looks familiar to the widest range of C developers
who might potentially contribute to Cogl.
So instead of using the gint{8,16,32,64} and guint{8,16,32,64} types this
switches all Cogl code to instead use the int{8,16,32,64}_t and
uint{8,16,32,64}_t c99 types instead.
Instead of gsize we now use size_t
For now we are not going to use the c99 _Bool type and instead we have
introduced a new CoglBool type to use instead of gboolean.

Since the original patch was done after removing deprecated API
this back ported patch doesn't affect deprecated API and so
actually this cherry-pick doesn't remove all remaining use of
CoglHandle as it did for the master branch of Cogl.
This adds public constructors which take a CoglBitmap to all primitive
texture types. This constructor should be considered the canonical
constructor for initializing the texture with data because it should
be possible to wrap any type of data in a CoglBitmap. Having at least
this single constructor avoids the need to have an explosion of
constructors such as new_from_data, new_from_pixel_buffer and
new_from_file etc.
The already available internal bitmap constructor for CoglTexture2D
has had its flags parameter removed under the assumption that flags do
not make sense for primitive textures. The meta constructor
cogl_texture_new_from_bitmap now just explicitly calls set_auto_mipmap
after constructing the texture depending on the value of the
COGL_TEXTURE_NO_AUTO_MIPMAP flag.

Cogl already had a vtable for the texture driver. This ended up being
used for some things that are not strictly related to texturing such
as converting between pixel formats and GL enums. Some other functions
that are driver dependent such as updating the features were not
indirected through a vtable but instead switched directly by looking
at the ctx->driver enum value. This patch normalises to the two uses
by adding a separate vtable for driver functions not related to
texturing and moves the pixel format conversion functions to it from
the texture driver vtable. It also adds a context parameter to all of
the functions in the new driver vtable so that they won't have to rely
on the global context.
This creates a CoglBitmap which points into an existing buffer in
system memory. That way it can be used to create a texture or to read
pixel data into. The function replaces the existing internal function
_cogl_bitmap_new_from_data but removes the destroy notify call back.
If the application wants notification of destruction it can just use
the cogl_object_set_user_data function as normal. Internally there is
now a convenience function to create a bitmap for system memory and
automatically free the buffer using that mechanism.
The name of the function is inspired by
cairo_image_surface_create_for_data which has similar semantics.

The cogl.h header is meant to be the public header for including the 1.x
api used by Clutter so we should stop using that as a convenient way to
include all likely prototypes and typedefs. Actually we already do a
good job of listing the specific headers we depend on in each of the .c
files we have so mostly this patch just strip out the redundant
includes for cogl.h with a few fixups where that broke the build.

This moves _cogl_get_format_bpp from cogl-bitmap.c to cogl.c and renames
it to _cogl_pixel_format_get_bytes_per_pixel. This makes it clearer that
it doesn't return bits per pixel and makes the naming consistent with
other cogl api. The prototype has been moved to cogl-private.h since it
seems we should be aiming to get rid of cogl-internal.h at some point.
The patch also adds a simple gtk-doc comment since we might want to make
this api public.

The texture driver functions are now accessed through a vtable pointed
to by a struct in the CoglContext so that eventually it will be
possible to compile both the GL and GLES texture drivers into a single
binary and then select between them at runtime.
This exposes a CoglTexture2D typedef and adds the following experimental
API:
cogl_is_texture_2d
cogl_texture_2d_new_with_size
cogl_texture_2d_new_from_data
cogl_texture_2d_new_from_foreign
Since this is experimental API you need to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API before including cogl.h.
Note: With these new entrypoints we now expect a CoglContext pointer to
be passed in, instead of assuming there is a default context. The aim is
that for Cogl 2.0 we won't have a default context so this is a step in
that direction.
glib already has a data type to manage a list of callbacks called a
GHookList so we might as well use it instead of maintaining Cogl's own
type. The glib version may be slightly more efficient because it
avoids using a GList and instead encodes the prev and next pointers
directly in the GHook structure. It also has more features than
CoglCallbackList.
If an atlas texture's last reference is held by the journal or by the
last flushed pipeline then if an atlas migration is started it can
cause a crash. This is because the atlas migration will cause a
journal flush and can sometimes change the current pipeline which
means that the texture would be destroyed during migration.
This patch adds an extra 'post_reorganize' callback to the existing
'reorganize' callback (which is now renamed to 'pre_reorganize'). The
pre_reorganize callback is now called before the atlas grabs a list of
the current textures instead of after so that it doesn't matter if the
journal flush destroys some of those textures. The pre_reorganize
callback for CoglAtlasTexture grabs a reference to all of the textures
so that they can not be destroyed when the migration changes the
pipeline. In the post_reorganize callback the reference is removed
again.

When Cogl debugging is disabled then the 'waste' variable is not used
so it throws a compiler warning. This patch removes the variable and
the value is calculated directly as the parameter to COGL_NOTE.
Instead of directly banging GL to migrate textures the atlas now uses
the CoglFramebuffer API. It will use one of four approaches; it can
set up two FBOs and use _cogl_blit_framebuffer to copy between them;
it can use a single target fbo and then render the source texture to
the FBO using a Cogl draw call; it can use a single FBO and call
glCopyTexSubImage2D; or it can fallback to reading all of the texture
data back to system memory and uploading it again with a sub texture
update.
Previously GL calls were used directly because Cogl wasn't able to
create a framebuffer without a stencil and depth buffer. However there
is now an internal version of cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture which
takes a set of flags to disable the two buffers.
The code for blitting has now been moved into a separate file called
cogl-blit.c because it has become quite long and it may be useful
outside of the atlas at some point.
The 4 different methods have a fixed order of preference which is:
* Texture render between two FBOs
* glBlitFramebuffer
* glCopyTexSubImage2D
* glGetTexImage + glTexSubImage2D
Once a method is succesfully used it is tried first for all subsequent
blits. The default default can be overridden by setting the
environment variable COGL_ATLAS_DEFAULT_BLIT_MODE to one of the
following values:
* texture-render
* framebuffer
* copy-tex-sub-image
* get-tex-data
Previously Cogl would only ever use one atlas for textures and if it
reached the maximum texture size then all other new textures would get
their own GL texture. This patch makes it so that we create as many
atlases as needed. This should avoid breaking up some batches and it
will be particularly good if we switch to always using multi-texturing
with a default shader that selects between multiple atlases using a
vertex attribute.
Whenever a new atlas is created it is stored in a GSList on the
context. A weak weference is taken on the atlas using
cogl_object_set_user_data so that it can be removed from the list when
the atlas is destroyed. The atlas textures themselves take a reference
to the atlas and this is the only thing that keeps the atlas
alive. This means that once the atlas becomes empty it will
automatically be destroyed.
All of the COGL_NOTEs pertaining to atlases are now prefixed with the
atlas pointer to make it clearer which atlas is changing.
The GLES2 wrapper is no longer needed because the shader generation is
done within the GLSL fragend and vertend and any functions that are
different for GLES2 are now guarded by #ifdefs.
This applies an API naming change that's been deliberated over for a
while now which is to rename CoglMaterial to CoglPipeline.
For now the new pipeline API is marked as experimental and public
headers continue to talk about materials not pipelines. The CoglMaterial
API is now maintained in terms of the cogl_pipeline API internally.
Currently this API is targeting Cogl 2.0 so we will have time to
integrate it properly with other upcoming Cogl 2.0 work.
The basic reasons for the rename are:
- That the term "material" implies to many people that they are
constrained to fragment processing; perhaps as some kind of high-level
texture abstraction.
- In Clutter they get exposed by ClutterTexture actors which may be
re-inforcing this misconception.
- When comparing how other frameworks use the term material, a material
sometimes describes a multi-pass fragment processing technique which
isn't the case in Cogl.
- In code, "CoglPipeline" will hopefully be a much more self documenting
summary of what these objects represent; a full GPU pipeline
configuration including, for example, vertex processing, fragment
processing and blending.
- When considering the API documentation story, at some point we need a
document introducing developers to how the "GPU pipeline" works so it
should become intuitive that CoglPipeline maps back to that
description of the GPU pipeline.
- This is consistent in terminology and concept to OpenGL 4's new
pipeline object which is a container for program objects.
Note: The cogl-material.[ch] files have been renamed to
cogl-material-compat.[ch] because otherwise git doesn't seem to treat
the change as a moving the old cogl-material.c->cogl-pipeline.c and so
we loose all our git-blame history.
CoglAtlas chooses a fairly large default initial size of either
512x512 or 1024x1024 depending on the texture format. There is a
chance that this size will not be supported on some platforms which
would be catastrophic for the glyph cache because it would mean that
it would always fail to put any glyphs in the cache so text wouldn't
work. To fix this the atlas code now checks whether the chosen initial
size is supported by the texture driver and if not it will get halved
until it is supported.
Previously when creating a new rectangle map it would try increasingly
larger texture sizes until GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is reached. This is bad
because it queries state which should really be owned by the texture
driver. Also GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE is often a conservative estimate so
larger texture sizes can be used if the proxy texture is queried
instead.
Previously when the atlas needs to be migrated it would start by
trying with the same size as the existing atlas if there is enough
space for the new texture. However even if the atlas is completely
sorted there will always be some amount of waste so when the atlas
needs to grow it would usually end up redundantly trying the same size
when it is very unlikely to fit. This patch changes it so that there
must be at least 6% waste available after the new texture is added
otherwise it will start with the next atlas size.
_cogl_atlas_new now has two extra parameters to specify the format of
the textures it creates as well as a set of flags to modify the
behavious of the atlas. One of the flags causes the new textures to be
cleared and the other causes migration to avoid actually copying the
textures. This is needed to use CoglAtlas from the pango glyph cache
because it needs to use COGL_PIXEL_A_8 and to clear the textures as it
does not fill in the gaps between glyphs. It needs to avoid copying
the textures so that it can work on GL implementations without FBO
support.
Instead of storing a pointer to the CoglRectangleMap and a handle to
the atlas texture in the context, there is a now a separate data
structure called a CoglAtlas to manage these two. The context just
contains a pointer to this. The code to reorganise the atlas has been
moved from cogl-atlas-texture.c to cogl-atlas.c
This simply renames CoglAtlas to CoglRectangleMap without making any
functional changes. The old 'CoglAtlas' is just a data structure for
managing unused areas of a rectangle and it doesn't neccessarily have
to be used for an atlas so it wasn't a very good name.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so
this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some
consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl
is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all
code yet.
There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large
amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the
changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines.
The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function
prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for
prototypes:
return_type
cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0,
CoglType arg1);
Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently
active Cogl developers agree on it.
The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types
in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all
been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char
respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been
replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used.
The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean,
gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize.
The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest
range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so
- especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of
foreign looking typedefs.
This adds a 'dump-atlas-image' debug category. When enabled, CoglAtlas
will use Cairo to create a png which visualizes the leaf rectangles of
the atlas.
This adds a CoglAtlas type which is a data structure that keeps track
of unused sub rectangles of a larger rectangle. There is a new atlased
texture backend which uses this to put multiple textures into a single
larger texture.
Currently the atlas is always sized 256x256 and the textures are never
moved once they are put in. Eventually it needs to be able to
reorganise the atlas and grow it if necessary. It also needs to
migrate the textures out of the atlas if mipmaps are required.
