Subject: st/dri: remove GALLIUM_MSAA and __GL_FSAA_MODE environment variables
X-Git-Tag: upstream/17.1.0~23441
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8449121971ce1db03fea19665d314e523fdc10dd;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fmesa.git

st/dri: remove GALLIUM_MSAA and __GL_FSAA_MODE environment variables

Some users don't understand that these variables can break OpenGL.
The general is rule is that if an app supports MSAA, you mustn't use
GALLIUM_MSAA.

For example, if an app has an 8xMSAA FBO and GALLIUM_MSAA=4
is set, resolving the FBO to the back buffer will be rejected which will look
like this on all gallium drivers:

The environment variables also have no effect on modern apps like TF2, but
there is still a performance hit due to wasted bandwidth and VRAM.

In a nutshell, it does more harm than good.
