1Mesa 9.0 Release Notes / October 8, 2012 2======================================== 3 4Mesa 9.0 is a new development release. People who are concerned with 5stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait 6for Mesa 9.0.1. 7 8Mesa 9.0 implements the OpenGL 3.1 API, but the version reported by 9glGetString(GL_VERSION) or glGetIntegerv(GL_MAJOR_VERSION) / 10glGetIntegerv(GL_MINOR_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being 11used. Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 123.1. OpenGL 3.1 is **only** available if requested at context creation 13because GL_ARB_compatibility is not supported. 14 15MD5 checksums 16------------- 17 18:: 19 20 be4cd34c6599a7cb9d254b05c48bdb1f MesaLib-9.0.tar.gz 21 60e557ce407be3732711da484ab3db6c MesaLib-9.0.tar.bz2 22 16b128544cd3f7e237927bb9f8aab7ce MesaLib-9.0.zip 23 24New features 25------------ 26 27Note: some of the new features are only available with certain drivers. 28 29- Added new Gallium3D - nv30 driver 30- Added new Gallium3D - radeonsi driver 31- Added OpenCL state tracker Clover 32- Completed VDPAU state tracker (video decoding support is currently 33 limited to MPEG1 and MPEG2) 34- GL_ARB_base_instance 35- GL_ARB_blend_func_extended 36- GL_ARB_debug_output 37- GL_ARB_invalidate_subdata - Currently a "no-op" implementation. This 38 extension is always enabled in all drivers. 39- GL_ARB_shader_bit_encoding 40- GL_ARB_texture_buffer_object 41- GL_ARB_timer_query 42- GL_ARB_transform_feedback3 43- GL_ARB_transform_feedback_instanced 44- GL_ARB_uniform_buffer_object 45- GL_EXT_unpack_subimage for ES 2.0 46- GL_EXT_read_format_bgra for ES 1.1 and 2.0 47- GL_EXT_texture_rg for ES 2.x 48- GL_NV_read_buffer for ES 2.0 49- GLX_ARB_create_context_robustness 50- EGL_KHR_create_context 51- EGL_KHR_surfaceless_context - This replaces the 52 EGL_KHR_surfaceless_{gles1,gles2,opengl} extensions that were never 53 approved by Khronos. 54- EGL_EXT_create_context_robustness 55 56Bug fixes 57--------- 58 59TBD -- This list is likely incomplete. 60 61Changes 62------- 63 64- The legacy/static Makefile system (ex: 'make linux-dri') has been 65 removed. The two supported build methods are now autoconf/automake 66 and SCons. 67- Removed support for GL_ARB_shadow_ambient extension 68- Removed Gallium3D - nvfx driver (use nv30 instead) 69- libGLU has been moved into its own repository, found at 70 https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/glu/ 71
