     62 
     63 Softpipe
     64 ^^^^^^^^
     65 
     66 Reference software rasterizer. Slow but accurate.
     67 
     68 .. _trace:
     69 
     70 Trace
     71 ^^^^^
     72 
     73 Wrapper driver. Trace dumps an XML record of the calls made to the
     74 :ref:`Context` and :ref:`Screen` objects that it wraps.
     75 
     76 Rbug
     77 ^^^^
     78 
     79 Wrapper driver. :ref:`rbug` driver used with stand alone rbug-gui.
     80 
     81 State Trackers
     82 --------------
     83 
     84 Clover
     85 ^^^^^^
     86 
     87 Tracker that implements the Khronos OpenCL standard.
     88 
     89 .. _dri:
     90 
     91 Direct Rendering Infrastructure
     92 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
     93 
     94 Tracker that implements the client-side DRI protocol, for providing direct
     95 acceleration services to X11 servers with the DRI extension. Supports DRI1
     96 and DRI2. Only GL is supported.
     97 
     98 GLX
     99 ^^^
    100 
    101 MesaGL
    102 ^^^^^^
    103 
    104 Tracker implementing a GL state machine. Not usable as a standalone tracker;
    105 Mesa should be built with another state tracker, such as :ref:`DRI` or
    106 :ref:`EGL`.
    107 
    108 VDPAU
    109 ^^^^^
    110 
    111 Tracker for Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix.
    112 
    113 WGL
    114 ^^^
    115 
    116 Xorg DDX
    117 ^^^^^^^^
    118 
    119 Tracker for Xorg X11 servers. Provides device-dependent
    120 modesetting and acceleration as a DDX driver.
    121 
    122 XvMC
    123 ^^^^
    124 
    125 Tracker for X-Video Motion Compensation.
    126 
    127 Auxiliary
    128 ---------
    129 
    130 OS
    131 ^^
    132 
    133 The OS module contains the abstractions for basic operating system services:
    134 
    135 * memory allocation
    136 * simple message logging
    137 * obtaining run-time configuration option
    138 * threading primitives
    139 
    140 This is the bare minimum required to port Gallium to a new platform.
    141 
    142 The OS module already provides the implementations of these abstractions for
    143 the most common platforms.  When targeting an embedded platform no
    144 implementation will be provided -- these must be provided separately.
    145 
    146 CSO Cache
    147 ^^^^^^^^^
    148 
    149 The CSO cache is used to accelerate preparation of state by saving
    150 driver-specific state structures for later use.
    151 
    152 .. _draw:
    153 
    154 Draw
    155 ^^^^
    156 
    157 Draw is a software :term:`TCL` pipeline for hardware that lacks vertex shaders
    158 or other essential parts of pre-rasterization vertex preparation.
    159 
    160 Gallivm
    161 ^^^^^^^
    162 
    163 Indices
    164 ^^^^^^^
    165 
    166 Indices provides tools for translating or generating element indices for
    167 use with element-based rendering.
    168 
    169 Pipe Buffer Managers
    170 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    171 
    172 Each of these managers provides various services to drivers that are not
    173 fully utilizing a memory manager.
    174 
    175 Remote Debugger
    176 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    177 
    178 Runtime Assembly Emission
    179 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    180 
    181 TGSI
    182 ^^^^
    183 
    184 The TGSI auxiliary module provides basic utilities for manipulating TGSI
    185 streams.
    186 
    187 Translate
    188 ^^^^^^^^^
    189 
    190 Util
