[Mesa-dev] [ANNOUNCE] Mesa 17.2.7 release candidate

Mon Dec 11 20:02:44 UTC 2017

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 17.2.7 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 45 queued
 - 2 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 1 rejected patches

The current queue consists of a variety of fixes, with a sizeable hunk in the
shared GLSL codebase.

Whereas for individual drivers - i965 has a crash fix for when playing various
Valve games, r600 and nouveau have tweaks in their compiler backends. Fast
clears on radeonsi and RADV are better now, while the VAAPI encoding is playing
nicely with GStreamer.

The WGL state tracker and SWR driver have also seen minor improvements.

To top of up - Mesa should build fine with the latest glibc 2.17.

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 17.2.7 this Wednesday(13th Dec 2017), around or shortly
after 20:00 GMT.

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