Hi,
It's been almost 4 months since the 12.0 branch was created, and soon
it will have been 3 months since Mesa 12.0 was released.
Is there any reason we haven't created the stable branch yet?
Ideally, we would time the release so that it's 1-2 months before fall
distribution releases.
Thanks Marek !
In all honesty I was secretly hoping that we'll get Dave/Bas RADV for
12.1. With the topic of which would be 'the default' Vulkan driver for
ATI/AMD hardware to be considered at a later stage.
If they have even close to the amount of work we had to get it merged, I
don't think that's at all realistic. Then again, Dave is the one who wants
to have a Vulkan driver for AMD hardware that he can package and ship so
I'll let him decide how badly he wants it in this release.
That said here are the tentative dates:
Oct 7/14 2016 - Feature freeze/Release candidate 1
Oct 14/21 2016 - Release candidate 2
Oct 21/28 2016 - Release candidate 3/final release
Fwiw I'm still in favour of getting RADV in even if it's not
perfect/feature complete. Devs, let me know if there's a "must have"
feature that we want in 12.1.
The main problem I have with merging radv is the whole conformance testing
end of it.
It's probably fine if I just make a big printf on device creation that RADV
isn't a conformant vulkan implementation yet. Sorta like what Intel do on the
older GPUs.
Otherwise I don't think merging it is a big job, it's 30,000 lines of standalone
code, I've already merged the prereq patches, and I think any code sharing
should happen in tree.
FWIW, I think that plan works fine.

Dave.
