Description Honza Macháček 2023-09-04 13:03:53 UTC

media-libs/mesa-23.2.0_rc2 failed to compile for me, complaining of:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: src/gallium/drivers/r600/libr600.a.p/r600_pipe.c.o: in function `r600_create_context':
r600_pipe.c:(.text.r600_create_context+0xbb): undefined reference to `vl_video_buffer_create'

and some more undefined references.

The commit 33673bcc
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/33673bcc2ab84de0b1ff35519e7d7a58ef572fba
was the cause. It states “ rusticl: stop linking with libgalliumvl, it's not needed,” but apparently it is, at leas as long as librusticl contains r600 driver, added by the commit 7c78c346
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/7c78c346ff86b16e5e8dec09b6ee5209719e44c8

Reverting the commit 33673bcc, that is adding libgalliumvl back to the dependencies of librusticl, made media-libs/mesa-23.2.0_rc2 compile and install for me.

Could you report this upstream please and link it here? Thanks.

If you could also throw in the full build.log here, that would be appreciated.

BTW would like to add, not sure what else is needed to get clinfo to detect my R600 so there might be more issues here - I am still using several r600 gpus.

Also, this is mesa-23.2.1 since mesa-23.2.0_rc2 expired.
