80 <para>
81 <function>glBlitFramebuffer</function> transfers a rectangle of pixel values from one region of the read framebuffer to another region in
82 the draw framebuffer. <parameter>mask</parameter> is the bitwise OR of a number of values indicating which buffers are
83 to be copied. The values are <constant>GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT</constant>, <constant>GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT</constant>, and
84 <constant>GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT</constant>. The pixels corresponding to these buffers are copied from the source rectangle bounded by the
85 locations (<parameter>srcX0</parameter>; <parameter>srcY0</parameter>) and (<parameter>srcX1</parameter>; <parameter>srcY1</parameter>)
86 to the destination rectangle bounded by the locations (<parameter>dstX0</parameter>; <parameter>dstY0</parameter>) and
87 (<parameter>dstX1</parameter>; <parameter>dstY1</parameter>). The lower bounds of the rectangle are inclusive, while the upper
88 bounds are exclusive.
89 </para>
90 <para>
91 The actual region taken from the read framebuffer is limited to the intersection of the source buffers being transferred, which may
92 include the color buffer selected by the read buffer, the depth buffer, and/or the stencil buffer depending on mask. The actual region
93 written to the draw framebuffer is limited to the intersection of the destination buffers being written, which may include multiple draw
94 buffers, the depth buffer, and/or the stencil buffer depending on mask. Whether or not the source or destination regions are altered due
95 to these limits, the scaling and offset applied to pixels being transferred is performed as though no such limits were present.
96 </para>
97 <para>
98 If the sizes of the source and destination rectangles are not equal, <parameter>filter</parameter> specifies the interpolation method that
99 will be applied to resize the source image , and must be <constant>GL_NEAREST</constant> or <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant>.
100 <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant> is only a valid interpolation method for the color buffer. If <parameter>filter</parameter> is not
101 <constant>GL_NEAREST</constant> and <parameter>mask</parameter> includes <constant>GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT</constant> or
102 <constant>GL_STENCIL_BUFFER_BIT</constant>, no data is transferred and a <constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> error is generated.
103 </para>
104 <para>
105 If <parameter>filter</parameter> is <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant> and the source rectangle would require sampling outside the bounds of
106 the source framebuffer, values are read as if the <constant>GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE</constant> texture wrapping mode were applied.
107 </para>
108 <para>
109 When the color buffer is transferred, values are taken from the read buffer of the read framebuffer and written to each of the draw
110 buffers of the draw framebuffer.
111 </para>
112 <para>
113 If the source and destination rectangles overlap or are the same, and the read and draw buffers are the same, the result of the operation
114 is undefined.

142 </para>
143 <para>
144 <constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if <parameter>filter</parameter> is <constant>GL_LINEAR</constant> and the read buffer
145 contains integer data.
146 </para>
147 <para>
148 <constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if the value of <parameter>GL_SAMPLES</parameter> for the read and draw buffers is
