Older Broadwell Graphics Performance Is Looking Good With The New Intel Gallium3D OpenGL Linux Driver

This is good news for my trusty old X250.

And for my Dell 5855 and 7140 too.

It would be great if the driver would support Haswell and maybe sometime some dev has some free time to devote on this and adds this support. I would really appreciate that.
However this might just stay a dream for a long time (or forever).

It won't happen, the Gen architecture pre-Broadwell is too different and has already been explicitly stated they won't add pre-Gen8 support.

We would appreciate any bug reports.

I'm working 16 hours for day, I will have vacations next week and I will report bugs with iris driver, testing with a new asus tuf with intel i58300h cpu

Good work intel I'm too see the great performance improvements not only with 3d but with opencl
