Yes, that will be an issue.
About EGL thread safety, I don't have an estimated time to work on it. I tried fine grained mutexes a while ago, and IIRC it imposed a lot of efforts on the drivers. Also, to support various EGL extensions, I had to kepp refining the mutexes. FWIW, If I were to do it again, I would prefer to start simple with a per-display mutex and a global mutex. -olv ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ Mesa3d-dev mailing list Mesa3d-dev@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mesa3d-dev
