Description

There appears to be some value in having this with softpipe/llvmpipe/swr for runtime switching and comparing and maybe something is faster on llvmpipe than swr, while something else is faster vice-versa (though that's all for a sad software use case). Given that, what are the actual disadvantages of having this - what is the cost of keeping this going? Users can in principle switch between implementations with the LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH environment variable or similar. If only for testing and comparing this might be sufficient. Ah sorry, I misunderstood. If you want to switch between llvmpipe, softpipe and swr (and not swrast), you use the GALLIUM_DRIVER variable. https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/gallium/docs/source/drivers/openswr/usage.rst The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=2411166e56da41fc163475c0ce0f6c10310d6468 commit 2411166e56da41fc163475c0ce0f6c10310d6468 Author: Matt Turner <mattst88@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2018-05-27 06:51:04 +0000 Commit: Matt Turner <mattst88@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2018-05-27 06:54:19 +0000 media-libs/mesa: Drop eselect-mesa support It only allowed selecting between two i915 drivers and two swrast drivers. Not interesting. Now, if gallium is enabled we will default to the gallium version of these drivers, otherwise the classic version.
