Phoronix: OpenGL 4.3 Robust Buffer Access Is Now Done For RadeonSI

There is another OpenGL 4.3 extension crossed off the TODO list of the AMD RadeonSI Gallium3D driver for GCN GPUs...

There are patches for all of them now BTW!

Looks like some major RadeonSI milestones will be achieved pretty soon now. Many thanks to all the people involved in the development.

The next mesa should be v12 instead of 11.3 isn't it, or is full OpenGL support needed in a driver Mesa itself has every extension for up to 4.3 but no driver exposes all of them.

SSBO is also done now.

So RadeonSI should be OpenGL4.2 in git now.
And only GL_ARB_compute_shader is missing from OpenGL4.3 in git.
Next mesa should be 12.

Which also makes it the first mesa driver to hit OpenGL 4.2, 4.3 as soon as compute shaders are committed and the last parts of 4.4 are on the mailing list too

full support is needed, but there is a full 4.2 support for radeonsi, therefore 12.0
