To those with the directx errors : archlinux directx-headers pacakgae is 2 releases behind upstream. Try building against aur directx-headers-git .

I don't remember what d3d12 does, but offical mesa also supports it.

@ZephyrCheez : thanks, that option lead to meson subprojects and mesa sourcetree does appear to include the data needed to use them. Adding nouveau vulkan looks doable now, no idea when there will be time to implement it.

@Beiruty, those have the same cause as the other recent build failures : changes in intel drivers.

The build issues caused by changes in intel drivers are now solved for MESA_WHICH_LLVM 1, 3 and 4 (llvm-minimal-git , llvm from lordheavy unofficial repo and offical repo llvm )

MESA_WHICH_LLVM 2 (aur llvm-git) build is still broken, but I MAY have a solution for that without having to create new packages.

The good news is that once all 4 variants built again, only minor changes should be needed to add opencl clover & opencl rusticl support.

(A lot of the work required to built the intel drivers is also useful for clover & rusticl)

Mesa and llvm are closely tied together. Everytime the llvm mesa is built against changes/updates , mesa needs to be rebuilt.

I expect anyone building mesa-git against one of the llvm trunk variants to be able to do that themselves, but atleast some of the people that built against repo llvm don't understand how to deal with such a rebuild.

The rest of this post is meant for those people.

  • Verify if latest PKGBUILD requirements match llvm repo versions.
  • If they don't , post to alert the maintainer of this.
  • DELAY the update of llvm/clang suite and their lib32- counterparts
  • Once the PKGBUILD does match, download it.

Option A - best one

  • run pacman -Syu to ensure your system is in sync with your mirrror server
  • build mesa-git in a clean chroot

see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot for the official way or https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/clean-chroot-manager for an alternative method.

  • install the newly built mesa-git
  • run pacman -Syu
  • ready

Option B - 2nd best

  • revert to repo mesa
  • pacman -Syu
  • build mesa-git
  • switch from mesa to mesa-git
  • ready

  • choosing which llvm variant to build against

WARNING : aur helpers don't support this method at all. They check .SRCINFO and that doesn't include this variable so it will use the default which is hardcoded to build against repo llvm.

Why would I want to use llvm development versions ?

For full functionality and latest features mesa trunk master needs to be build against llvm trunk master.
If you build against stable llvm things MAY work, but you're likely to lack some features and face stability issues.

Mesa-git uses a custom environment variable MESA_WHICH_LLVM for flexibility.
It has 4 values.
1 : aur llvm-minimal-git
2 : aur llvm-git
3: llvm-git from LordHeavy' unofficial repo
4: llvm from extra repo

I use value 1 95% of the time and set this in ~/.bash_rc .
If MESA_WHICH_LLVM is unset or empty, the default value of 4 (extra llvm) is used.

  • main difference with stable repo package
[extra]mesa is a split package, but aur mesa-git isn't.
Basically with aur mesa-git you get everything in one package, while [extra]/mesa allows you to leave out some parts if you don't want/need them.
Having a single package reduces maintenance and makes switching from stable to mesa-git rather easy, though reverting back to stable can be tricky.
  • meson settings
Those who compare PKGBUILDs will notice I don't use arch-meson, but meson setup.
I disagree with some of the settings made by arch-meson (especially the buildtype and enabling LTO by default) and feel using meson setup is cleaner.
  • how to update

run pacman Syu update non-repo packages for llvm if you use them

build mesa-git, log out , update mesa-git and restart X .

run glxinfo -B to verify basic OpenGL functionality

build lib32-mesa-git

run glxinfo32 -B to verify basic OpenGL functionality for multilib programs

The mesa driver is currently broken for Intel graphics cards and hardware accelerated video decoding. If you open any hardware / GPU accelerated video decoder, it will fail with Intel driver fails with "intel_do_flush_locked failed: No such file or directory" Bug Report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71759 I created a binary releases for people having the same problem and want a quick solution, the patch is confirmed to work on three different core iX machines (3. to 5. Gen): https://github.com/cookiengineer/abs

@Lone_Wolf - thank you, not only does lvm-svn and clang-svn take forever to build, they're also broken right now. I just removed the -svn on both deps and am hoping it'll build just fine, if that fails Ill add that binary repo, thanks :)

Lone_Wolf commented on 2016-08-26 13:07 (UTC)

Gentoofu, the rejection is because that patch is now part of master. I have removed the patch and updated the Package.

100best, while mesa-git may builds against stable llvm NOW, chances that it will still do that in a few weeks are low. Best case you'll miss out on newer features or get problems that have been solved in llvm-svn . I do agree llvm-svn takes a long time to build (50 minutes on my system) , but there's a better solution : user kerberizer' unofficial llvm-svn repo, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unofficial_user_repositories#llvm-svn

It builds without the svn versions of LLVM and Clang which take forever to compile "llvm-libs-svn", "clang-svn", and "llvm-svn" so instead "llvm-libs", "clang", and "llvm" appear to work fine.

Latest git contains bug with black/dark textures (see bug: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97285) probably on all amd/ati gpu. 1. yaourt mesa-git 2. Change PKGBUILD (add custom patch, download from: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=125699) 3. Build it. PROFIT! @Lone_Wolf Probably, you may need to add a patch. Think about it.
