Mesa 9.0 Release Notes / October 8, 2012
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
Mesa 9.0 is a new development release. People who are concerned with
|
|
stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait
|
|
for Mesa 9.0.1.
|
|
|
|
Mesa 9.0 implements the OpenGL 3.1 API, but the version reported by
|
|
glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) /
|
|
glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being
|
|
used. Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL
|
|
3.1. OpenGL 3.1 is **only** available if requested at context creation
|
|
because GL_ARB_compatibility is not supported.

New features
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Note: some of the new features are only available with certain drivers.
|
|
|
|
- Added new Gallium3D - nv30 driver
|
|
- Added new Gallium3D - radeonsi driver
|
|
- Added OpenCL state tracker Clover
|
|
- Completed VDPAU state tracker (video decoding support is currently
|
|
limited to MPEG1 and MPEG2)
|
|
- GL_ARB_base_instance
|
|
- GL_ARB_blend_func_extended
|
|
- GL_ARB_debug_output
|
|
- GL_ARB_invalidate_subdata - Currently a "no-op" implementation. This
|
|
extension is always enabled in all drivers.
|
|
- GL_ARB_shader_bit_encoding
|
|
- GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object
|
|
- GL_ARB_timer_query
|
|
- GL_ARB_transform_feedback3
|
|
- GL_ARB_transform_feedback_instanced

|
|
- GL_EXT_read_format_bgra for ES 1.1 and 2.0
|
|
- GL_EXT_texture_rg for ES 2.x
|
|
- GL_NV_read_buffer for ES 2.0
|
|
- GLX_ARB_create_context_robustness
|
|
- EGL_KHR_create_context
|
|
- EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context - This replaces the
|
|
EGL_KHR_surfaceless_{gles1,gles2,opengl} extensions that were never
|

|
removed. The two supported build methods are now autoconf/automake
|
|
and SCons.
|
|
- Removed support for GL_ARB_shadow_ambient extension
|
|
- Removed Gallium3D - nvfx driver (use nv30 instead)
|
|
- libGLU has been moved into its own repository, found at
|
|
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/glu/
