[Mesa-dev] Mesa 17.2.4 release candidate

[Andres Gomez]

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 17.2.4 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 21 queued
 - 10 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 6 rejected patches


In the current queue we have:

In Mesa Core we have included a change to prevent KOTOR from breaking
when in combination with the ATI fragment shader extension. 
Additionally, NIR has also received a correction.

Mesa's state tracker has gotten a patch to avoid leaks in certain
situations like when resizing a window.

Intel drivers have received several fixes.  The compiler has gotten a
couple, while anv also received one.  i965 got a patch to avoid VA-API, 
Beignet and other contexts in the system to break when in combination
with previous versions of Mesa 17.2.x.

AMD's compiler has received a couple of fixes while radv has also
received another couple, including one to avoid a hang due to an
overflow on huge textures.

Broadcom's vc4 has corrected a problem when compiling with Android's
clang.

clover has also seen fixed a problem compiling after a specific clang
revision.

Vulkan's WSI has gotten plugged a memory leak for X11.

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 17.2.4 next Sunday (29th of October), around or
shortly after 18:00 GMT.

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