My reading of https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/17801 also is that adding a meson option is indeed the only thing required to get this going.
I don't know if the submitter, Alex Fan, is or plans to work on the MR, nor anyone else. From what you described, I think the best way is for you to comment on the MR, offer to help, and get it done if Alex isn't working on it, or does not reply.

External Email Dear mesa developers, I am trying to run mesa with llvmpipe on a RISC-V platform, without success. This is needed in order to get some performance figures for the RISC-V Graphics SIG. By default llvmpipe is using MCJIT and crashes on lp_build_create_jit_compiler_for_module because MCJit does not support RISC-V. Seems like MCJIT is deprecated and it is not going to accept new architectures, so llvmpipe will never run on RISC-V unless ported to ORC JIT. I see there is already a merge request for migrating llvmpipe from the deprecated MCJIT to the new ORC JIT: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/17801<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgitlab.freedesktop.org%2Fmesa%2Fmesa%2F-%2Fmerge_requests%2F17801&data=05%7C01%7Cjfonseca%40vmware.com%7C32d436bd9c7d4f82a89708db1a6f9283%7Cb39138ca3cee4b4aa4d6cd83d9dd62f0%7C0%7C1%7C638132838743751755%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Vcua8DKHtnF0tyL%2Fc9YnY2zivGQCS%2F%2F0z%2BEphdUXoLU%3D&reserved=0> My understanding is that the code is good for merging in a disabled state (rather than enabled by default). However the merge is gated by the fact that a meson build option is still missing. Do the mesa developers need help with this? I could try to add the missing option myself if that helps, as this task is critical for supporting basic graphics on RISC-V. Let me know what RISC-V can do to help. Regards. !!
