17<h1>Mesa 10.2 Release Notes / June 6, 2014</h1>
18
19<p>
20Mesa 10.2 is a new development release.
21People who are concerned with stability and reliability should stick
22with a previous release or wait for Mesa 10.2.1.
23</p>
24<p>
25Mesa 10.2 implements the OpenGL 3.3 API, but the version reported by
26glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) /
27glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
28Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 3.3.  OpenGL
293.3 is <strong>only</strong> available if requested at context creation
30because compatibility contexts are not supported.

65<h2>Bug fixes</h2>
66
67TBD.
68
69<h2>Changes</h2>
70
71<ul>
72<li>Renamed <i>--with-llvm-shared-libs</i> to <i>--enable-llvm-shared-libs</i></li>
73<p>
74The option is used to control how mesa is linked against LLVM, and now
75defaults to enabled (shared linking).
76</p>
77
78<li>Split <i>libxatracker.so</i> into a standalone library which can be used
79with any gallium driver.</li>
80<p>
81Previously the library was linked statically against vmware's virtual gpu
82driver(svga), whereas now it loads a shared pipe_*.so driver. Provide the
83following options during configure, if you would like support for svga driver
84<i>--enable-xa --with-gallium-drivers=svga</i>
85</p>
86
87<p>
88Note: The files are installed in $(libdir)/gallium-pipe/ and the interface
89between them and libxatracker.so is <strong>not</strong> stable.
90</p>
91
92<li>The environment variable GALLIUM_MSAA that forced a multisample GLX visual was removed.</li>
93</ul>
