[Mesa-dev] [PATCH v6 0/5] improved the support for ETC2 formats on Gen 7

[Eleni Maria Stea]

Intel Gen7 GPUs don't support the ETC2 formats natively and in order to
show the pixels properly we decompress them and create decompressed
miptrees. The problem with that is that the functions that map the
miptrees for reading (for example the GetCompressed* calls), and would
be supposed to read compressed pixel values, would read decompressed
values instead unless if we prevented this with assertions that make
the user programs either crash or misfunction.

These patches are an attempt to give a solution to this problem by using 2
miptrees: the main to store the ETC values and the generic shadow
(mt->shadow) to store the decompressed values. Each time that the main
miptree is mapped for writing we set a flag that the shadow will need
update and we check this flag before every draw call to update the
shadow miptree. (We perform the check right before drawing to avoid
missing changes from functions like the CopyImageSubData in the next 
frame). Then we map the shadow for sampling. This way, we can render the
images using the decompressed pixels of the shadow but we return the
compressed ones from the main when the texture is mapped for reading.

Also, the OES_copy_image extension that couldn't work on Gen 7 due to the
lack of the ETC support is now enabled back.

Finally, the following glcts and piglit tests pass:
