Free Desktop ☛ mesa 24.0.0-rc3
Hello everyone,
I'm happy to announce the next release candidate, 24.0.0-rc3.
As always, if you find any issues please report them here: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/new
Any issue that should block the release of 24.0.0 final, thus adding more 24.0.0-rc* release candidates, must be added to this milestone: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/milestones/45
The next release candidate is expected in one week, on January 31st.
Cheers, Eric -
Tomeu Vizoso: Etnaviv NPU update 15: We are upstream!
Today the initial merge request for Teflon was merged into Mesa, along with the first hardware driver, for VeriSilicon's Vivante NPU.
An update
More on the latter:
-
Vivante NPU (found in Amlogic A311D) gets its open-source driver upstreamed to Mesa
The Teflon project is an open-source TensorFlow Lite delegate that currently supports VeriSilicon Vivante NPU and aims to support several other Hey Hi (AI) accelerators over time. The project has recently been upstreamed to Mesa meaning Hey Hi (AI) inference with open-source software will work out of the box in supported hardware once Mesa 24.1 is released in May 2024.
