    sorry for asking again but can reconsider now enabling dozen?
    I don't have time to look at it, but patches are welcome!

    • Hi,
      oibaf where/how to send patches?
      also do you plan enabling new "rusticl" OpenCL 3.0 driver on oibaf builds?
      (https://www.phoronix.com/news/Mesa-22.3-Rusticl-Merged) seems supports even images, never supported by Clover..

        Hi, I am a bit busy lately, so I don't have time to look at rusticl myself​.
        You can send patches using to mail (see changelogs of the package), or posting on pastebin or similar and link it there.
        I already had a look at enabling d3d12 (but it was missing something IIRC), you'll find some commented code in my package source.

        • Hi,
          no problem thanks.. I'm lazy these days, but will probably try to test rusticl by building myself and providing patches after that..
          also sorry for asking too many things lately but asked for llvmpipe /lavapipe atomic float extensions support.. and has been merged (https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/me...a8eb181173787c) but requires LLVM >=15.0..
          are you updating your builds to LLVM 15.0(.1?) soon?
          thanks..

          • I'll update llvm to 15 probably the first days of October.

            • Updated mesa with llvm 15, only on kinetic, because Canonical won't build llvm 15 on i386 / jammy. Hopefully they'll enable it (it usually happens after some time), than I could use llvm 15 also on jammy.

                Please update libva to a newer version. It is still at 2.12.0 and latest is 2.16.0. This is super important for the crocus driver because VA-API support is only available in 2.14.0 and newer. Thanks!

                Currently I have (at my Radeon GPU):
                HTML Code:
                test@iMac-test:~$ vainfo

                libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_14
                libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
                vainfo: VA-API version: 1.14 (libva 2.12.0)

                • I have added libva 2.16 to kinetic.
                  I won't do it in jammy because since 2.15 there is this change:
                  * debian/libva2.symbols: Remove va_fool symbols
                  They are not used by any reverse dependency in the archive.​
                  which may don't break any Debian app, but someone already noticed it breaks Steam.

                  • ​Thanks for the answer. Final question, version 2.14 should work also in jammy aka 22.04, right? When ever possible please update the builds to this version because the next LTS version will be 24.04 so in quite a while. This will ensure that also all crocus users​ will have VA-API support until then.

                      Ahhm, Debian unstable has libva 2.16, what is the problem with Steam? It is working here without any issue.
