X-Git-Tag: upstream/17.1.0~14520
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4581f8428e0e1d2f6787d0765823c7883bd2cfcd;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fmesa.git

llvmpipe: disable VSX in ppc due to LLVM PPC bug

This patch disables the use of VSX instructions, as they cause some
piglit tests to fail

For more details, see: https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25503#c7

With this patch, ppc64le reaches parity with x86-64 as far as piglit test
suite is concerned.

v2:
- Added check that we have at least LLVM 3.4
- Added the LLVM bug URL as a comment in the code

v3:

- Only disable VSX if Altivec is supported, because if Altivec support
is missing, then VSX support doesn't exist anyway.

- Change original patch description.
