This means it doesn't have to block while the current frame finishes using the
vertex buffer; it just moves on to the next, probably-not-in-use buffer.

If one creates a window with the SDL_WINDOW_FULLSCREEN_DESKTOP flag, and creates a render target with SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_RENDER_SCALE_QUALITY, "linear"), and afterwards sets SDL_SetHint(SDL_HINT_RENDER_SCALE_QUALITY, "nearest"), after minimizing the window, the scale quality hint is lost on the render target. Textures however do keep their interpolation modes.
SDL now builds with gcc 7.2 with the following command line options:
-Wall -pedantic-errors -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-overlength-strings --std=c99
New functions get and set the YUV colorspace conversion mode:
SDL_SetYUVConversionMode()
SDL_GetYUVConversionMode()
SDL_GetYUVConversionModeForResolution()
SDL_ConvertPixels() converts between all supported RGB and YUV formats, with SSE acceleration for converting from planar YUV formats (YV12, NV12, etc) to common RGB/RGBA formats.
Added a new test program, testyuv, to verify correctness and speed of YUV conversion functionality.

There are already patches available from mingw64 that fix the issue
https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/tree/master/mingw-w64-SDL2
With those applied, I could compile SDL2 without problems. But of course, it would be preferable if SDL built cleanly from source.
"UWP" appears to be Microsoft's new name for WinRT/Windows-Store APIs.
This set of changes updates SDL's WinRT backends to support the Win10 flavor
of WinRT. It has been tested on Win10 on a desktop. In theory, it should
also support Win10 on other devices (phone, Xbox One, etc.), however further
patches may be necessary.
This adds:
- a set of MSVC 2015 project files, for use in creating UWP apps
- modifications to various pieces of SDL, in order to compile via MSVC 2015 +
the Win10 API set
- enables SDL_Window resizing and programmatic-fullscreen toggling, when using
the WinRT backend
- WinRT README updates
This change-set fixes a lot of windowing related bugs, especially with
regards to Windows 8.x apps running on Windows 10 (which was the driver for
this work). The primary fixes include:
* listed display modes were wrong, especially when launching apps into a
non-fullscreen space
* reported window flags were often wrong, especially on Windows 10
* fullscreen/windowed mode switches weren't failing (they are not
programmatically possible in Win 8.x apps).
The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly
uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to
use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful
because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash
in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was
dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
