/* XXX: For an overview of the functionality implemented here, please

 */

/* 
 * TODO: We need to do a better job of minimizing when we call glVertexPointer
 * and pals in enable_state_for_drawing_mesh
 * 
 * We should have an internal 2-tuple cache of (VBO, offset) for each of them
 * so we can avoid some GL calls. We could have cogl wrappers for the
 * gl*Pointer funcs that look like this:
 *
 * cogl_vertex_pointer (n_components, gl_type, stride, vbo, offset);
 * cogl_color_pointer (n_components, gl_type, stride, vbo, offset);
 *
 * They would also accept NULL for the VBO handle to support old style vertex
 * arrays.
 *
 * TODO:
 * Actually hook this up to the cogl shaders infrastructure. The mesh API has
 * been designed to allow adding of arbitrary attributes for use with shaders,
 * but this has yet to be actually plumbed together and tested.
 * The bits we are missing:
 * - cogl_program_use doesn't currently record within ctx-> which program
 *   is currently in use so a.t.m only Clutter knows the current shader.
 * - We don't query the current shader program for the generic vertex indices
 *   (using glGetAttribLocation) so that we can call glEnableVertexAttribArray
 *   with those indices.
 *   (currently we just make up consecutive indices)
 * - some dirty flag meshanims to know when the shader program has changed
 *   so we don't need to re-query it each time we draw a mesh.
 * 
 * TODO:
 * There is currently no API for querying back info about a mesh, E.g.:
 * cogl_mesh_get_n_vertices (mesh_handle);
 * cogl_mesh_attribute_get_n_components (mesh_handle, "attrib_name");
 * cogl_mesh_attribute_get_stride (mesh_handle, "attrib_name");
 * cogl_mesh_attribute_get_normalized (mesh_handle, "attrib_name");
 * cogl_mesh_attribute_map (mesh_handle, "attrib_name");
 * cogl_mesh_attribute_unmap (mesh_handle, "attrib_name");
 * (Realistically I wouldn't expect anyone to use such an API examine the
 *  contents of a mesh for modification, since you'd need to handle too many
 *  possibilities, but never the less there might be other value in these.)

 * TODO:
 * It may be worth exposing the underlying VBOs for some advanced use
 * cases, e.g.:
 * handle = cogl_vbo_new (COGL_VBO_FLAG_STATIC);
 * pointer = cogl_vbo_map (handle, COGL_VBO_FLAG_WRITEONLY);
 * cogl_vbo_unmap (handle);
 * cogl_vbo_set_data (handle, size, data);
 * cogl_vbo_set_sub_data (handle, offset, size, data);
 * cogl_vbo_set_usage_hint (COGL_VBO_FLAG_DYNAMIC);
 *
 * TODO:
 * Experiment with wider use of the mesh API internally to Cogl.
 * - There is potential, I think, for this API to become a work-horse API
 *   within COGL for submitting geometry to the GPU, and could unify some of
 *   the GL/GLES code paths.
 * E.g.:
 * - Try creating a per-context mesh cache for cogl_texture_rectangle to sit
 *   on top of.
 * - Try saving the tesselation of paths/polygons into mesh objects internally.
 *
 * TODO
 * Expose API that lets developers get back a mesh handle for a particular
 * polygon so they may add custom attributes to them.
 * - It should be possible to query/modify a mesh efficiently, in place,
 *   avoiding copies. It would not be acceptable to simply require that
 *   developers must query back the n_vertices of a mesh and then the
 *   n_components, type and stride etc of each component since there
 *   would be too many combinations to realistically handle.
 * 
 * - In practice, some cases might be best solved with a higher level
 *   EditableMesh API, (see futher below) but for many cases I think an
 *   API like this might be appropriate:
 *
 * cogl_mesh_foreach_vertex (mesh_handle, (MeshIteratorFunc)callback,
 *			     "gl_Vertex", "gl_Color", NULL);
 * void callback (CoglMeshVertex *vert)
 * {
 *    GLfloat *pos = vert->attrib[0];
 *    GLubyte *color = vert->attrib[1];
 *    GLfloat *new_attrib = buf[vert->index];
 *    
 *    new_attrib = pos*color;
 * }
 *
 * TODO
 * Think about a higher level EditableMesh API for building/modifying mesh
 * objects. 
 * - E.g. look at Blender for inspiration here. They can build a mesh
 *   from "MVert", "MFace" and "MEdge" primitives. 
 * - It would be possible to bake an EditableMesh into a regular Mesh, and
 *   vica versa 
 *

  /* Pseudo code:
   * 
   * Broadly speaking we start with a list of unsorted attributes, and filter
   * those into 'new' and 're-use' CoglMeshVBO (CBO) lists. We then take the
   * list of new CBO structs and compare with the CBOs that have already been
   * submitted to the GPU (but ignoring those we already know will be re-used)
   * to determine what other CBOs can be re-used, due to being superseded, 
   * and what new GL VBOs need to be created.
   * 
   * We have three kinds of CBOs:
   * - Unstrided CBOs
   *    These contain a single tightly packed attribute
   *    These are currently the only ones ever marked as FREQUENT_SUBMIT
   * - Strided CBOs
   *	 These typically contain multiple interleved sets of attributes,
   *	 though they can contain just one attribute with a stride
   * - Multi Pack CBOs
   *     These contain multiple attributes tightly packed back to back)
   *
   * First create a new-CBOs entry "new-multipack-CBO"
   * Tag "new-multipack-CBO" as MULTIPACK + INFREQUENT_RESUBMIT
   * For each unsorted attrib:
   *   if already marked as submitted:
   *	 iterate reuse-CBOs:
   *	   if we find one that contains this attribute:
   *	     free redundant unsorted attrib struct
   *	     remove the UNUSED flag from the attrib found in the reuse-CBO
   *	     continue to next unsorted attrib
   *	 iterate submitted VBOs:
   *	   if we find one that contains this attribute:
   *	     free redundant unsorted attrib struct
   *	     unlink the vbo and move it to the list of reuse-CBOs
   *	     mark all attributes except the one just matched as UNUSED
   *	 assert (found)
   *	 continue to next unsorted attrib
   *   if strided:
   * 	 iterate the new, strided, CBOs, to see if the attribute is
   *	 interleved with one of them, if found:
   *	   add to the matched CBO
   *	 else if not found:
   *	   create a new-CBOs entry tagged STRIDED + INFREQUENT_RESUBMIT
   *   else if unstrided && tagged with FREQUENT_RESUBMIT:
   *     create a new-CBOs entry tagged UNSTRIDED + FREQUENT_RESUBMIT
   *   else
   *     add to the new-multipack-CBO
   * free list of unsorted-attribs
   * 
   * Next compare the new list of CBOs with the submitted set and try to
   * minimize the memory bandwidth required to upload the attributes and the
   * overhead of creating new GL-BOs.
   *
   * We deal with four sets of CBOs:
   * - The "new" CBOs
   *    (as determined above during filtering)
   * - The "re-use" CBOs
   *    (as determined above during filtering)
   * - The "submitted" CBOs
   *    (I.e. ones currently submitted to the GPU)
   * - The "final" CBOs
   *	(The result of resolving the differences between the above sets)
   * 
   * The re-use CBOs are dealt with first, and we simply delete any remaining
   * attributes in these that are still marked as UNUSED, and move them
   * to the list of final CBOs.
   *
   * Next we iterate through the "new" CBOs, searching for conflicts
   * with the "submitted" CBOs and commit our decision to the "final" CBOs
   *
   * When searching for submitted entries we always unlink items from the
   * submitted list once we make matches (before we make descisions
   * based on the matches). If the CBO node is superseded it is freed,
   * if it is modified but may be needed for more descisions later it is
   * relinked back into the submitted list and if it's identical to a new
   * CBO it will be linked into the final list. 
   *
   * At the end the list of submitted CBOs represents the attributes that were
   * deleted from the mesh.
   * 
   * Iterate re-use-CBOs:
   *   Iterate attribs for each:
   *	 if attrib UNUSED:
   *	   remove the attrib from the CBO + free
   *	   |Note: we could potentially mark this as a re-useable gap
   *	   |if needs be later.
   *   add re-use CBO to the final-CBOs
   * Iterate new-CBOs:
   *   List submitted CBOs conflicting with the this CBO (Unlinked items)
   *   found-target-BO=FALSE
   *   Iterate conflicting CBOs:
   *	 Disassociate conflicting attribs from conflicting CBO struct
   *	 If no attribs remain:
   *	   If found-target-BO!=TRUE
   *	   _AND_ If the total size of the conflicting CBO is compatible:
   *	   |Note: We don't currently consider re-using oversized buffers
   *	     found-target-BO=TRUE
   *	     upload replacement data
   *	     free submitted CBO struct
   *	     add new CBO struct to final-CBOs
   *	   else:
   *	     delete conflict GL-BO
   *	     delete conflict CBO struct

   *	   relink CBO back into submitted-CBOs
   *
   *   if found-target-BO == FALSE:

   *	 add new CBO struct to final-BOs
