212 <parameter>CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2"</parameter>: By default,
213 <application>Autoconf</application> sets CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to
214 "-g -O2". That results in binaries and libraries being built with
215 debugging symbols which make them bigger. Override the default
216 flags to omit -g compiler flag so the final libraries are smaller.

218
219 <para>
220 <parameter>--disable-gallium-egl</parameter>: This switch disables
221 the egl_gallium loader in favor of egl_dri2 loader which supports
222 both DRI and Gallium drivers.

224
225 <para>
226 <parameter>--enable-texture-float</parameter>: This switch enables
227 floating-point textures and render buffers. Please consult

277 controls which Gallium drivers should be built. Available drivers
278 are: i915, ilo, nouveau, r300, r600, radeonsi, svga and swrast. You
279 will need to remove r300, r600 and radeonsi from the list if you did
