Mesa

Mesa is an open-source 3D graphics library that provides the commonly-used DRI and Gallium3D open-source Linux graphics drivers.

Activity Earlier In The Year

ci/llvmpipe: Add testing of gles3/31/gl
Emma Anholt: llvmpipe is a pretty important driver, we should be fully testing it.

turnip: Demote API version to 1.1.
Eric Anholt: We don't support major 1.2 required extensions like timeline semaphores.

anv: Allow storage on all formats that support typed writes
Jason Ekstrand: In particular, this gives us B8G8R8A8_UNORM storage support which is useful for writing WSI images from compute shaders.

zink: always enable fixed shader-caps
Erik Faye-Lund: This is required for a bunch of stuff that can occur in any Vulkan shader stage, not just these few.

zink: implement sparse buffer creation/mapping
Mike Blumenkrantz: sparse buffers are not cpu-readable, so any mapping requires that they use a staging buffer, either the stream uploader for writes or a manual copy for readback

zink: add a ctx function for handling device lost resets
Mike Blumenkrantz

venus: query extended resource info from gralloc
Yiwei Zhang: Creating Android swapchain image from gralloc buffer requires to use VkImageDrmFormatModifierExplicitCreateInfoEXT.

radv: Add a STONEY baseline for dEQP.
Charlie Turner: See:

intel/compiler: Add common function for CS dispatch info
Caio Marcelo de Oliveira Filho: We have this small calculations repeated in each Intel driver, so move them to a single place to be reused.

nir/opt_algebraic: optimizations for add umax/umin with zero
Gert Wollny: For unsigned comparisons with zero these ops can be eliminated.

Mesa Release Tags

venus: add VN_MAX_API_VERSION
Chia-I Wu: Use VN_MAX_API_VERSION for the instance version such that we don't suddenly advertise 1.3 when the header is updated to 1.3 for example. Use it to cap the device version as well.

VERSION: bump to 21.2.0-devel
Eric Engestrom: Part-of: <

anv: bump internal descriptor index fields to 32bits
Lionel Landwerlin: Prior to supporting VK_EXT_descriptor_indexing all of our descriptor limits where below 64k which fitted a uint16_t.

intel: Rename GEN_VERSIONx10 macro to GFX_VERx10
Anuj Phogat: Commands used to do the changes: export SEARCH_PATH="src/intel src/gallium/drivers/iris src/mesa/drivers/dri/i965" grep -E "GEN_VERSION" -rIl $SEARCH_PATH | xargs sed -ie "s/GEN_VERSION/GFX_VER/g"

VERSION: bump for 21.1.0 cycle
Dylan Baker

Bump version for 21.0 devel
Dylan Baker

radv: remove useless assignment of MAX_API_VERSION
Samuel Pitoiset: It's overwritten few lines below.

Bump development version and clear new_features
Dylan Baker

anv: Advertise shaderIntegerFunctions2
Jason Ekstrand: We advertised the extension string but never the feature bit.

cut 20.1 branch
Eric Engestrom
