Subject: i965: Free dead GLSL IR one last time.
X-Git-Tag: upstream/17.1.0~19584
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a09c5b8527c2b28d30c0b11111a66fc7d283c06f;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fmesa.git

i965: Free dead GLSL IR one last time.

While working on NIR's memory allocation model, I realized the GLSL IR
memory model was broken.

During glCompileShader, we allocate everything out of the
_mesa_glsl_parse_state context, and reparent it to gl_shader at the end.

During glLinkProgram, we allocate everything out of a temporary context,
then reparent it to the exec_list containing the linked IR.

But during brw_link_shader - the driver's final opportunity to do
lowering and optimization - we just allocated everything out of the
permanent context given to us by the linker.  That memory stayed
forever.

Notably, passes like brw_fs_channel_expressions cause us to churn the
majority of the code, so we really want to free dead IR here.

Saves 125MB of memory when replaying a Dota 2 trace on Broadwell.
