ATI Radeon bug report

[zeckensack]

I've found what I assume to be a bug in the OpenGL driver or underlying hardware.

hardware/software version concerned:
The issue concerns the original Radeon series of chips (pre 8500) and has only been verified on this earlier series (Radeon 32 DDR to be exact), using the officialy released 4.13.9009 driverset on Windows 98SE.

description of issue:
When the third texture environment is configured to perform a DOT3 operation, the results of this operation are wrong. More specifically, the output of the DOT3 operation is not even a scalar but a full 'funky' color result. This happens only on the third texture environment.

reproduction of issue:
I have attached C source code for a minimal application, using the glut library, that can visually demonstrate the issue.

The application activates GL_COMBINE_ARB for all three texture units.
The application then configures the texture environment pipeline to perform decal texturing on the first environment, passthrough on the second and the DOT3 operation on the third texture environment. The same texture referenced on the first environment is used as a dummy texture for the second and third environments.

With the space bar the user can cycle the position of the dot3 operation in the pipeline through the environments to observe the results of different configurations.
These configs should all yield the same result, but they don't

configurations that can be cycled through:

Dot3 on tex env 2 (default configuration):
env0 does replace operation with source=texture, operand=source_color
env1 does replace operation with source=previous, operand=source_color
env2 does DOT3_RGB_ARB operation with sources=previous,previous, operands=source_color,source_color

Dot3 on tex env 0:
env0 does DOT3_RGB_ARB operation with sources=texture,texture, operands=source_color,source_color
env1 does replace operation with source=previous, operand=source_color
env2 does replace operation with source=previous, operand=source_color

Dot3 on tex env 1:
env0 does replace operation with source=texture, operand=source_color
env1 does DOT3_RGB_ARB operation with sources=texture,texture, operands=source_color,source_color
env2 does replace operation with source=previous, operand=source_color

I still hope I'm wrong http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/smile.gif

Oh, and I'd like to see verification or ... err ... the opposite of verification from Radeon8500 users http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/smile.gif

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you still need to specify texture coords for ALL TMU's?

The spec only mandates that textures must be bound to the environments. Texture coordinates should have some default value (though I can't find it in the spec right now ...). Not that I actually referenced any textures in the later environments anyway ...

However, I've just slapped multitexture coordinates in and the result is still exactly the same - still wrong http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/frown.gif

NitroGL: A followup

The initial values of s, t, and r of the current texture coordinates
are zero;Found on page 21 (page 33 in Acrobat Reader) of glspec1.3.pdf.

Hmm... It probably is a driver bug then.

You sure send a report to devrel@ati.com

I've seen this problem occur as well. I've been learning opengl for a couple months now, going through nehe tutorials, redbook, radeon sdk examples, etc, so I figured it was a problem with my code. But when I changed my code so dot3 occurred in GL_TEXTURE1_ARB instead of GL_TEXTURE2_ARB, I got the expected results rather than a strangely colored mess.

The example above demonstrates the problem on my Radeon 7200. I've got an 8500 on the way, I'll try the above example code on it when it arrives. http://www.opengl.org/discussion_boards/ubb/smile.gif
