[Mesa-dev] [RFC PATCH 00/65] ARB_bindless_texture for RadeonSI

[Dieter Nützel]

Hello Samuel,

running this on radeonsi/RX580.
Didn't saw better numbers for Wine/TS2017 (TrainSimulator 2017) ever 
before.
But didn't feaguered if it (can) use bindless (with Wine/stagging). Do 
we have a knob to toggle bindless on and off?
A key from Feral for DiRT Rally or the like would be very nice (my son 
would go crazy). - He (nine years old) love (car) simulators. ~50 € is 
much for 'testing'...

So got my

Tested-by: Dieter Nützel <Dieter at nuetzel-hh.de>

Here come some output from 'ogl-samples'

ATTENTION: default value of option mesa_glthread overridden by 
environment.
OpenGL Version Needed 4.2 ( 4.5 Found )
