[Mesa-dev] Mesa 17.1.8 release candidate

[Andres Gomez]

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 17.1.8 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 15 queued
 - 0 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 2 rejected patches


In the current queue we have:

In Mesa Core we include a fix to prevent a crash in
glCompressedTextureSubImage3D.

The GLSL compiler now includes a fix to add some int64 constant
propagation cases.

Intel drivers have received several patches. Among those, i965 has
gotten a fix for performance queries and another one for a problem that
could have caused rendering corruption or possibly hangs in programs
which use compute shaders.

AMD's drivers have also seen some improvements. radeonsi has gotten a
temporary workaround for a tessellation driver bug while radv includes
a patch to prevent a potential crash.

nouveau's has gotten a fix to properly set the sType for TXF ops to
U32.

For EGL, the Wayland platform of the the DRI2 drivers has received a
fix to prevent a possible indefinite block.

Take a look at section "Mesa stable queue" for more information.


Testing reports/general approval
--------------------------------

Any testing reports (or general approval of the state of the branch)
will be greatly appreciated.

The plan is to have 17.1.8 next Monday (28th of August), around or
shortly after 13:00 GMT.

If you have any questions or suggestions - be that about the current
patch queue or otherwise, please go ahead.
