[Mesa-dev] [ANNOUNCE] Mesa 18.3.3 release candidate

Wed Jan 30 18:33:35 UTC 2019

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 18.3.3 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 45 queued
 - 4 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 3 rejected patches

In the current release candidate we have fix for a memory leak in the etnaviv
driver, better NEON assembly code in vc4 and couple of stability improvements
to the radeonsi driver. A memory leak affecting all gallium drivers have been
addressed.

The time required to compile GLSL shaders with large amount of uniforms, such
as Godot, has been improved.

GLX and swrast have also been improved for better. 

On the Vulkan side, the ANV driver adjusted the number of images supported
for gen8 and earlier to 8, while for newer hardware it remains the same 64.
The RADV driver has seens a collection of stability improvements and fix for
the Vulkan version advertised in some corner cases.

To top it all up, the meson build system has seen a steady amount of fixes:
the DSO version for the VDPAU drivers is now included, ICC compatibility
patches, opencl handling and relaxed handling when building osmesa.

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 18.3.3 this thursday (31st January 2019), 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.

Rejected (3)
============

Bas Nieuwenhuizen (1):
      f67dea5e19e radv: Fix multiview depth clears

Reason: This commit requires commits aeaf8dbd097 and 7484bc894b9 which did not
        land in branch.

Jason Ekstrand (2):
      bfe31c5e461 nir/builder: Add nir_i2i and nir_u2u helpers which take a bit size
      abfe674c54b spirv: Handle arbitrary bit sizes for deref array indices

Reason: The commits aren't suitable in their present form. Backport
         requested, silence from developer.
