The part of the roadmap that interests me the most is the GPU support part. This is something I'm really interested in and I do already have working mesa 20.1 port for Genode along with both kernel and userspace driver parts targetting qemu virtual GPU (virgl). The kernel part was borrowed from Linux 5.8 and ported using "forked" dde_linux code.
The main problem is my port is not compatible with existing Genode windowing system. My initial goal was to support Linux DRM/KMS APIs in Genode. While working on this I decided to omit the KMS part of the duo, but DRM parts are complete enough to run mesa EGL/DRM backend without major modifications. My end goal is to get Qt EGLFS backend working and have GLESv2 accelarated QML GUI running on top of it. The only missing part right now is the EGLFS backend port. I'm not there yet only because I got distracted by my clang port :P. Even though my plans are probably not fully aligned with Genode Labs, I think the mesa port I have might save you some porting time. /ptw On Fri, 2021-01-15 at 14:25 +0100, Norman Feske wrote: > Dear Genode community, > > I want to thank everyone of you who participated in the road-map > discussion.
