Urgent Bug Triage
Bugs tracked for upcoming Firefox releases, in decreasing order of urgency:
Agenda
- OMTC update (ajuma, nrc, Bas)
- Azure project update (nrc, kentuckyfriedtakahe)
- Multi-resolution tiles (BenWa)
- SIGGRAPH recap (BenWa, gw280, Bas)
- BenWa:
- ES 3.0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL#OpenGL_4.3
- Texture max has to be at least 2048^2!
- PBOs!
- Texture compression
- Discard framebuffer
- Debug capabilities to receive debugging messages during application development
- multi-application robustness extension
- Shader binary (startup perf)
- The PowerVR Insider SDK
- Qualcom
- Do FBO work first in ONE step because rebind it causes expensive flushes on some GPUs.
- Use minimum shader precision acceptable. Typecast to lower precision when you don't need it.
- Web3D
- Pushed back towards keeping that in the client.
- They need support for custom CSS properties and perhaps ways to extend devtools.
- Relaxing security for shaders that are safe (no dependent texture read).
- NV Path Rendering
- ES 3.0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL#OpenGL_4.3
- BenWa:
- Bug 771219 - Tile base progressive painting
- Progress: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/10523664/output.webm
- Can be interrupted at tile granularity
- Can paint at any or both resolution at once and could be controlled by a heuristic
- Has a stub for doing adding tile drawing priority but we need code to check the screen intersections.
- Low res buffer isn't at a fix resolution yet.
