removed obsolete options, build now works again.

building opencl clover is disabled for now, see https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/11863

Those that need opencl should use rusticl instead. Note that rusticl at runtime is disabled by default, see https://docs.mesa3d.org/envvars.html#rusticl-environment-variables for info about enabling it.

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

To use the r600 state tracker driver you have to substitute Driver "radeon" in your xorg.conf with Driver "r600g"

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-08-27 10:55 (UTC)

Hi guys, I propose a patch that adds XORG State Tracker support for r600 (so that you don't have to use the xf86-video-ati driver anymore. The driver is still quite immature, but works quite well considering it is in the tree since 18 hours) and also makes this package provide libglapi : --- mesaorig/PKGBUILD 2011-08-27 12:47:42.899792076 +0200 +++ mesa-r600g-git/PKGBUILD 2011-08-27 12:27:53.896436578 +0200 @@ -4,8 +4,8 @@ # Adapted from offical archlinux mesa package pkgname=(mesa-r600g-git) -pkgver=20110715 -pkgrel=2 +pkgver=20110827 +pkgrel=1 _realver=7.12 pkgdesc="Mesa R600 gallium for Radeon HD 2xxx and later - git version.If you live in the US, you should delete --enable-texture-float \ line." arch=('x86_64') @@ -13,9 +13,9 @@ depends=('libxt' 'libxxf86vm' 'libxdamag makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'python2' 'talloc' 'libxml2' 'imake' 'git' 'glproto' 'dri2proto>=2.6' 'llvm' 'xorg-server-devel' 'libxvmc' 'libvdpau') optdepends=('libtxc_dxtn: S3TC support' 'mesa-demos: glxinfo and glxgears') -provides=(mesa=${_realver} libgl=${_realver} ati-dri=${_realver}) -replaces=(mesa libgl ati-dri) -conflicts=('xf86-video-ati<6.9.0-6' mesa libgl ati-dri) +provides=(mesa=${_realver} libgl=${_realver} ati-dri=${_realver} libglapi=${_realver}) +replaces=(mesa libgl ati-dri libglapi) +conflicts=('xf86-video-ati<6.9.0-6' mesa libgl ati-dri libglapi) url="http://mesa3d.sourceforge.net" license=(custom) source=(LICENSE) @@ -51,6 +51,7 @@ build() { --enable-shared-dricore \ --enable-gbm \ --enable-gallium-gbm \ + --enable-xorg \ --enable-xvmc \ --enable-vdpau \ --enable-gallium-g3dvl \ @@ -88,6 +89,10 @@ package() { # ati-dri cd "${srcdir}/build/src/mesa/drivers/dri" make -C ${srcdir}/build/src/gallium/targets/dri-r600 DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install +# xorg-r600 + cd "${srcdir}/build/src/mesa/drivers/dri" + make -C ${srcdir}/build/src/gallium/targets/xorg-r600 DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install +# xorg-r600 #license install -m755 -d "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}" install -m755 "${srcdir}/LICENSE" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/" Bye

Maybe you could add '--depth 1' to the 'git clone' command to only fetch the latest code, as most of us don't need hunders of megabytes of mesa history. Also as this doesn't prevent the new commits from stagging on top of each others, and the size of the clone grows, on every rebuild. Replacing 'cp -r ${_gitname} build' with 'rsync -a --exclude=.git ${_gitnmame}/* build' should in theory speed things up too. We don't need git history while building O_o, or does someone need it?

flex and bison are build depencies, please add them.

GLES libs is not installd here.. I have them only in my mesa-git/src/build/lib/ directory not /usr/lib/..

tavianator commented on 2011-08-02 21:34 (UTC)

@Svenstaro: Read the PKGBUILD, it is split. In fact, it's heavily based on the official mesa PKGBUILD. @diegoxter: Thanks, I've put a lot of your improvements into the updated PKGBUILD.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-07-27 20:02 (UTC)

http://pastebin.com/Yhx5yFpx Fixed :)

svenstaro commented on 2011-07-24 01:10 (UTC)

The mesa split package in [testing] is always built from git and updated periodically (every few weeks or so). This AUR package is effectively the same but in a non-split manner because AUR doesn't support split packages. If you want to be sure you are getting the newest stuff and have it integrate well with the other Arch packages, just rebuild the [testing] mesa package every time you need a new commit from upstream.

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-07-24 00:58 (UTC)

Is this package updated? I mean, does it have all the features (or makeflags, whatever you want to call them) that mesa and *-dri packages in [extra] or [testing] repos have?

drog commented on 2011-07-23 19:04 (UTC)

Thanks for the package, works fine c:
