Inquiry about the size of dynamic_stubs and handling

[张凡]

Dear Mesa 3D development team：

     I am a developer who is highly interested in Mesa 3D and has been studying OpenGL extensions and Mesa 3D implementation. In my project, I have encountered some questions regarding the size of dynamic_stubs and I would greatly appreciate your help and guidance.

    Firstly, I have noticed that in Mesa 3D, the size of dynamic_stubs is set to 256. I am curious to know why this value has been chosen as the standard size. I would like to understand the factors that were considered in determining this value. Are there any specific technical reasons or limitations that led to this fixed size?

    Secondly, in my project, I need to write some custom OpenGL extension functions, but I anticipate that the number of these functions may exceed 256. In such a scenario, how should I proceed? How can I expand the size of dynamic_stubs to accommodate a larger number of function definitions?

    I greatly appreciate the excellent work you have been doing in Mesa 3D, and I admire your expertise and experience. I believe that your guidance and advice will be crucial in advancing my project.

Thank you for taking the time to read my email, and I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

fan zhang
