Hello,
I have been looking at the code in Gallium/drivers/v3d related to
texture conversion, specifically v3dx_tfu.c.
I have been trying to find how to convert a texture from raster
format RGBA8 to UIF (either XOR or NO_XOR). I tried break-pointing
the v3dX(tfu) function, but it doesn't appear to be called in my
simple textured triangle OpenGL program on a Raspberry Pi 4
(VideoCore VI v. 42).
I am looking for where this conversion takes place, as it appears the
VideoCore expects textures to be in another format before they can be
sampled properly.
Is there anyone here who can point me to any one of the following:
- How v3dX(tfu) ends up getting used (e.g., a user-space program I
can run to blit/convert a raster texture into a UIF texture)
- Any notes on the TFU interface itself (what the registers expect,
beyond what can clearly infer from v3dX(tfu))
- If the TFU isn't used to convert to UIF, where the conversion takes
place
I may have misunderstood the texture sampler. I am sampling a texture
successfully (pixels are the color I expect) but the pixels are
completely "out of order", which is what hints me that they need to
be in UIF instead of raster format.
I would greatly appreciate someone to bounce a few V3D questions off of.
Thanks,

(Apologies if this was received before; I checked the archive and
didn't see it, so I subscribed to the list and re-sent in case I need
to be a subscriber to send. I sent this to mesa-dev since I am
looking for low level details, so if this should go to the mesa list
instead please let me know.)
For this kind of things it is usually done through gitlab issues.
Would it be possible if you create an issue with that, and
additionally adding the simple texture triangle program that you
mentioned before?
Thanks
