Right, it's probably appropriate to finally have a documented wiki-page for Mesa SRU's, so I'll create one.
Upstream does extensive conformance testing on every release, but they do not cover hardware drivers. For that, we should be able to use Intel's Mesa CI which tests branches on many generations of GPU's from them. In order to use it, they need to grant developer access to it and I have a request pending now. For AMD hardware we can maybe ask them to test the backport on their CI (AIUI it's not public). In the past we've had the cert team test the backports on a handful of enabled machines (both Intel & AMD), but having the above would greatly improve the coverage and give greater confidence in these SRU's. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2037604 Title: Backport packages for 22.04.4 HWE stack Status in directx-headers package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in rust-bindgen package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in rust-clang-sys package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in directx-headers source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Status in mesa source package in Jammy: Incomplete Status in rust-bindgen source package in Jammy: Invalid Status in rust-clang-sys source package in Jammy: Invalid Bug description: [Impact] The graphics HWE stack from mantic needs to be backported for 22.04.4 directx-headers - build-dep of the new Mesa mesa - new major release (23.2.x) - new HW support, Meteor Lake.. [Test case] Install the new mesa on various hw, see that everything still works like before or better. [Where things could go wrong] This is a major update of Mesa, there could be regressions but we'll try to catch any with testing. And since it shares bugs with mantic, we'd already know if there are serious issues. We will backport the final 23.2.x at a later stage, the first backport is needed for enabling Intel Meteor Lake.
