[Mesa-users] Strangely low OpenGL

Hello! I have Radeon HD5730 supporting up to OpenGL 4.4. (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units#Mobility_Radeon_HD_5xxx_Series
). Its driver is r600:
$ grep r600 /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[ 86.840] (II) RADEON(0): [DRI2] DRI driver: r600
[ 86.840] (II) RADEON(0): [DRI2] VDPAU driver: r600
[ 86.938] (II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized r600
According to news I saw and the https://mesamatrix.net/ , the driver fully
supports OpenGL 4.1. But why do I see OpenGL 3.3? I.e.:
$ glxinfo | grep version
server glx version string: 1.4
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.4
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 11.3.0-devel
(git-329d115 2016-05-26 trusty-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 3.30
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 11.3.0-devel (git-329d115 2016-05-26
trusty-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 11.3.0-devel
(git-329d115 2016-05-26 trusty-oibaf-ppa)
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.00
OpenGL-4.1 were hit by r600 in December 2015, and the build I'm using — you
can see the date — is 26 May 2016. Although the Mesa package I'm using is
neither from distro, nor compiled by me, I really doubt that compiling by
myself would change anything in this case (right?).
