[Mesa-dev] [PATCH v4 14/44] i965: Add support for control register

[Jose Maria Casanova Crespo]

Control register cr0 in i965 can be used to change the rounding modes
in 32-bit to 16-bit floating-point conversions.

>From intel Skylake PRM, vol 07, section "Register and Tegister Regions",
 subsection "Control Register" (page 754):

"Subregister cr0.0:ud contains normal operation control fields such as the
 floating-point mode ... "

Floating-point Rounding mode is changed at bits 5:4 of cr0.0:

"Rounding Mode. This field specifies the FPU rounding mode. It is
initialized by Thread Dispatch."
  00b = Round to Nearest or Even (RTNE)
  01b = Round Up, toward +inf (RU)
  10b = Round Down, toward -inf (RD)
  11b = Round Toward Zero (RTZ)"
