Dependencies
OpenGL 1.0 or later is required
This extensions is written against the OpenGL 1.4 Specification.
Overview
This extension adds a new pixel storage parameter to indicate that
images are to be packed in top-to-bottom order instead of OpenGL's
conventional bottom-to-top order. Only pixel packing can be
inverted (i.e. for glReadPixels, glGetTexImage, glGetConvolutionFilter,
etc).
Almost all known image file formats store images in top-to-bottom
order. As it is, OpenGL reads images from the frame buffer in
bottom-to-top order. Thus, images usually have to be inverted before
writing them to a file with image I/O libraries. This extension
allows images to be read such that inverting isn't needed.
IP Status
None
Issues
1. Should we also define UNPACK_INVERT_MESA for glDrawPixels, etc?
Resolved: No, we're only concerned with pixel packing. There are other
solutions for inverting images when using glDrawPixels (negative Y pixel
zoom) or glTexImage (invert the vertex T coordinates). It would be easy
enough to define a complementary extension for pixel packing in the
future if needed.

In the section labeled "Placement in Client Memory" on page 184
insert the following text into the paragraph before the sentence
that starts with "If the format is RED, GREEN, BLUE...":
"The parameter PACK_INVERT_MESA controls whether the image is packed
in bottom-to-top order (the default) or top-to-bottom order. Equation
3.8 is modified as follows:
... the first element of the Nth row is indicated by
p + Nk, if PACK_INVERT_MESA is false
p + k * (H - 1) - Nk, if PACK_INVERT_MESA is true, where H is the
image height
