Hi,

this is a retake of Ben Avison's series starting with
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pixman/2015-March/003506.html

Of that series, the first patch has landed. Here I am replacing patches 3
and 4. Patch 2 is included in my series as is, with my R-b added.  I am leaving
patch 5 of that series for a bit later, including some other clean-ups to
lowlevel-blt-bench.

The point of my series is to try and take into accout Søren's review comments
from
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pixman/2014-October/003457.html
particularly:

This series tries to do just that: move the parsing/printing code to utils and
extend it to be usable from lowlevel-blt-bench.

Apart from restructuring, there is one significant(?) difference to Ben's
patches: for a solid mask, Ben used a8r8g8b8, but my code uses a8. I hope this
is fine in general, but should we also add a condition, that if a test has CA
flag and a solid mask, then that mask needs to be a8r8g8b8?

None of the existing tests has a solid mask for CA tests. I'm not sure how much
it makes sense.

I have tested this series with the usual 'make check' after each commit, plus
verified that the output of check-formats (the lists of operators and formats)
is the same before and after.

This series allows to attempt even impossible tests like src_8888_n. A solid
destination is obviously nonsense, and triggers a segfault:
  pixman_image_composite32
    general_composite_rect
      dest_write_back_narrow
        NULL function pointer
To me it seems that Pixman does not validate its arguments well enough, but
that's off-topic here. I don't think this kind of validation would belong in
lowlevel-blt-bench but libpixman itself.

Ben, when we eventually get to the actual optimization patches, I expect I will
reproduce the benchmarks myself while reviewing. Is that ok?
What do you think of this series?


Thanks,
pq
