Hi all,
I wanted to send out a quick message about naming conventions for mesa
entrypoints and dd table fallbacks.  There has been some confusion and
disagreement about this with some of the stuff Laura has been doing to
implement DSA.  Instead of side-track one of those patches for this
discussion, I thought it was worth its own e-mail.

When Laura started working on DSA, I suggested that, since we're
refactoring everything anyway, we refactor the guts of the entrypoint into
a DSA-style "internal entrypoint".  This internal entrypoint takes a
gl_context pointer, does less error checking, and actual mesa object
pointers instead of GLuint names.  I'll get to why in a minute here.
However, that leaves us needing a naming convention for three things:

  1) The entrypoint itself (currently _mesa_EntryPoint)
  2) the internal entrypoint (Laura chose _mesa_entry_point)
  3) the software fallback for the DD table entry (Laura chose
_mesa_TableEntry_sw)

These all sound good to me.

Me too.

-Brian
