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

I'm also installing thru paru, despite directx-headers-git being installed, it still breaks with the same error.

miyalys commented on 2024-12-27 11:16 (UTC) (edited on 2024-12-27 11:17 (UTC) by miyalys)

Personally I was simply trying to install it via an AUR helper - specifically paru.
This is the version of directx-headers-git it installed:
r234.b172a9c-1

Maybe it's because it doesn't build inside a clean chroot, then, and therefore it has the wrong llvm-version...?
I should probably just have read the pinned comments.

@miyalys, @KrzychuKropopek,

25.0.0_devel.199466.c0e5e8f932a.d41d8cd-1 builds ok in a clean chroot environment. Are you building against the latest directx-headers-git? What is the command you use to build?

KrzychuKropopek commented on 2024-12-26 00:50 (UTC)

have the same problem as miyalys

Not sure if it's a missing build dependency or something.

mesa-git-25.0.0_devel.198878.81d0c24e2f6.d41d8cd-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst builds fine against repo llvm in a clean chroot build.

What is the llvm variant & version you build against ?

What is the exact command you use to build ?

Please post the full build log somewhere public.

I keep getting hit with this error

Does CachyOS use pkgconf ?

If so, there's probably a cleaner solution by setting PKG_CONFIG to the correct profile (provided by gcc)

See lib32-mesa-git build() function for an example .

ms178 commented on 2024-11-29 20:07 (UTC)

As I am using CachyOS which uses fish, I could fix my gbm problem with adding the following to the .config/fish/config.fish file:

set -Ux PKG_CONFIG_PATH /usr/lib64/pkgconfig $PKG_CONFIG_PATH

ms178 commented on 2024-11-29 18:21 (UTC)

I've noticed on the latest mesa-git that indirect rendering seems to be gone now, at least the following part "ln -s /usr/lib/libGLX_mesa.so.0 "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/libGLX_indirect.so.0"" now leads to an error due to a missing file.

While at it, I've also cleaned up that part:

# remove script file from /usr/bin
# https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/issues/2230
rm "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/mesa-overlay-control.py"
rmdir "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"

I don't know if it is related to these cleanups, but I now see problems when building Kwin that seems to be missing a check for gbm:

-- The following REQUIRED packages have not been found:
