glGetShaderPrecisionFormat

This should be fixed in master by the following series of commits.  Assuming this doesn't cause any regressions, I'll cherry pick these (and some other patches related to GL_ARB_ES2_compatibility) to the 7.10 and 7.9 branches in the next week or so.

That's because your test is broken.  It's passing uninitialized pointers to glGetShaderPrecisionFormat.

fix a bug for the test case of glGetShaderPrecisionFormat

Oh sorry. I have fixed the bug of the test case and it passes whih following commit

The test is still incorrect.  The range parameter returns two values, not one.

So you need something like
GLint range[2], precision;

glGetShaderPrecisionFormat(GL_VERTEX_SHADER, GL_HIGH_FLOAT, range, &precision);

Also, it would be nice if the test would query all the supported shader types and precision types to make sure no errors are generated and the results are sensical.

I already added that test to piglit.  It's arb_es2_compatibility-getshaderprecisionformat.  It checks all of the shader types and precision types and verifies that the minimum values required by the spec are returned.

We should be able to build real ES2 tests in piglit within a week or so.  Once that happens, all of the tests in tests/spec/arb_es2_compatibility will get "ported" to ES2.  The only change that will need to happen is removing the assumption that highp is supported for fragment shaders.

This test looks correct.  Does it pass on master?  I plan to cherry pick some of these patches back to 7.9 and 7.10.

In the presence of the test I mentioned in comment #9, this new test is not useful.

Yes the new test case just can check glGetShaderPrecisionFormat and it passes on master. Following is the verified commit.

Closing since, from the comments, it sure sounds fixed.

But it hasn't been cherry picked back to 7.10 or 7.9.

Fixed in 7.9 (4d2a725196e70f5480a90d9af818a1b508ac98a9) and 7.10 (f9e01af6c3071669c2d52ddaeea98c98b8b7e10c).

verified with (7.9)2b41289691421863970c73745ad6e191da4b32d7 and (7.10)f9f01e40c7ca66b72ad6c8fe98eaedbc03ae59b8
