15:12Company: apart from opaque region, is there another benefit I could get from knowing my window is fully opaque?
15:13Company: I could select XR24 over AR24, but EGL selects that for me
15:13Company: and I'm not sure I'd want to reconfigure a new swapchain in Vulkan, or would I?
15:21any1: The way the question is phrased, "opaque region" is a benefit, but that's nonsensical. Maybe I'm lacking some context
15:25any1: Are you asking if there is another way to specify that a window is fully opaque?
15:27emersion: i think instead of reconfiguring the swapchain you could disable alpha blending to get the same effect
15:27emersion: hm, wouldn't work since the compositor can ignore the opaque region
15:34jadahl: the client doesn't get any benefit, it's the compositor that gets it. e.g. avoiding blending and/or culling
15:42Company: I was thinking about the whole rendering step, so both client and compositor
15:43Company: and my starting point was that I know that my current frame (which likely means future ones, too, but I don't know that yet) is fully opaque
15:43Company: so obviously I'm gonna set the opaque region to the whole surface
15:44Company: but I could also do things like switch to an RGBx format, ie from AR24 to XR24
15:45MrCooper: an alpha-less format means you don't need to set the opaque region, can't think of any other difference it makes offhand
15:45MrCooper: oh, another thing is you could use a 10 bpc format
15:46Company: I hadn't thought about that
15:49Company: I wonder if that's worth it
15:50Company: if (current_format == FP16 && surface_is_opaque()) current_format = UNORM10;
15:55MrCooper: saves memory bandwidth at least
15:57Company: yeah, it might indeed be worth it - though memory bandwidth limits are not something GTK apps hit, and probably even less when the app is opaque, which happens on fullscreen with direct scanout

20:17emersion: any objections to a bugfix release?
20:17emersion: i'd like to get the scanner validator fixes
20:17emersion: hm, maybe should look at the MR list before…
