LLVMpipe Now Exposes Shared Virtual Memory Support
![MESA](/assets/categories/mesa.webp)
The change to advertise system SVM support was merged this week to Mesa 23.3-devel. SVM is one of the requirements of OpenCL 2.0. Karol Herbst of Red Hat notes that now system SVM is exposed, it opens the door for proper SYCL/CHIP-SPV support for Rusticl on LLVMpipe. On the Rusticl side it's supported SVM since earlier this year.
Rusticl continues advancing nicely for a modern Rust-based OpenCL driver in Mesa both for the various Gallium3D hardware drivers and atop LLVMpipe for a CPU-based implementation.
