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

The patch file is outdated (due to modifications) new is pasted here http://pastebin.com/JGbRAkw0

@electricprism, this is a -git package. When you run makepkg, the version will automagically be updated to match the one in Git master--which, right now, would be "12.1.0_devel.82376.f39439d-1".

electricprism commented on 2016-06-07 22:34 (UTC)

So with Mesa 12 getting into RC will we be getting that? Or are we already getting Mesa 12 and the version number just needs to be bumped from 11.3 up? Curious.

Lone_Wolf commented on 2016-05-24 14:09 (UTC)

I've added libpthread-stubs as make dependency for now, but there are other solutions. Will post in the forum mesa-git thread about this. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=212819

configure: error: Package requirements (pthread-stubs) were not met Needs libpthread-stubs from AUR to compile.

kerberizer commented on 2016-05-23 22:42 (UTC)

Hm, it seems that after this commit we need to pull in libpthread-stubs... https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=1f4869a2089c6172feff382e177d74ac68c241a7 Otherwise, configure complains that "Package requirements (pthread-stubs) were not met: No package 'pthread-stubs' found". Not sure if there isn't another solution.

haagch commented on 2016-05-03 14:27 (UTC)

Ah I changed that locally and didn't update the AUR. Now it should work. They changed something in their configure script so --with-vulkan-icddir does something very weird now, but when removing --with-vulkan-icddir from the configure options, it does the right thing now.

Mesa master is supposed to be built against LLVM trunk, so I'm not sure if that wouldn't be an overkill and too much burden on Lone_Wolf. These compat changes happen fairly often, mainly because of Clover. Perhaps a sticky comment with a reminder to always build against latest LLVM trunk might be enough?

yurikoles commented on 2016-04-30 08:10 (UTC)

Last error was solved by upgrading llvm-svn. Consider putting svn rev in deps.
