[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/4] Actual ARB_multi_draw_indirect support

The current support in mesa for ARB_multi_draw_indirect is pretty
shameful... it just does N separate draws. Instead make it possible
for drivers to handle this in a more efficient manner. Also create the
backend interfaces necessary to support ARB_indirect_parameters,
although the (trivial) frontend bits are not part of this series.

Of course right now st/mesa will still break up the multidraw into N
draws since no backends actually support this. And there are no
piglits (other than one in images) which actually make use of
glMultiDraw*Indirect... oh well.

The nvc0 support is going to be a tad tricky for this since I can't
feed an arbitrarily-sized buffer into the command stream (something
like 2K max items per command). So I need to split it up. And I need
to beef up the macro we use for it. That's all a task for next year
though.

Ilia Mirkin (4):
  vbo: create a new draw function interface for indirect draws
  gallium: add sufficient draw interface to allow new indirect features
  gallium: add caps to expose support for multi indirect draws
  st/mesa: add support for new mesa indirect draw interface
