Phoronix: Mesa 21.3 LLVMpipe Enables OpenGL 4.5 Compatibility Profile Support

The LLVMpipe driver providing a generic OpenGL implementation that's CPU-accelerated for Mesa - and more performant than alternatives thanks to LLVM - can now support OpenGL 4.5 compatibility profile contexts...

What's next for LLVMpipe?
Can it get performance improvements?

Mesa still needs some more OpenCL work, but that is unrelated to LLVMpipe which seems to fully support both OpenGL 4.6 as well as OpenGL ES 3.2.

I wonder if its thread-scaling has gotten any better, since Michael last tested it.

Sure would be nice!

Yes, ACOpipe when!?

(Just kidding).
