Re: [Mesa-dev] Request for Mentor - XorgEvoc - Piglit for VA-API
Welcome! From the page: https://www.x.org/wiki/SummerOfCodeIdeas/ Might try and ping Christian König. Do you have an AMD GPU?

But I have been going through the available projects for the XorgEVoC program and the project *Piglit for VA-API *caught my attention. I have mailed last week looking out for mentors for the project, but unfortunately this email did not receive attention due to the busy schedule at Xorg I guess. I have been working on the project since the last time I mailed asking for directions. As Alex mentioned in his reply, I have read through the piglit documentation and am now sufficiently familiar with piglit. Things that I have done until now:- 1. Read through the Piglit documentation (Capable of understanding and writing small tests using piglit) 2. Compiled gstreamer, and also set up the gst-uninstalled environment. 3. Understood about the architecture of gstreamer. 4. Currently reading about VA-API. 5. Planning to implement a simple VA-API app to better understand the type of tests I need to write for VA-API I am comfortable with both C and Python and given the skill set I am confident of accomplishing the project. I would thus like to discuss the details and deliverable of the project with my potential mentor and would like to know how I can proceed with the project. Since no potential mentor was mentioned in the Idea's Page, it would be really kind of someone if they are willing to be a mentor for the project. I can assure you that I will put the best of my efforts and dedication into the project and will see that the project is completed. Thank you for your valuable time.

Re: [Mesa-dev] Introduction to Community and Queries Regarding Task : Unit and performance tests for VA-API
Am not a mentor, but welcome to the community. On 08/31/2018 11:38 AM, Iti Shree wrote: Good morning, I am Iti Shree currently pursuing B.Tech degree in Information and Technology. I was browsing through some project and saw Xorg project ideas. Many of them are indeed interesting, though they have precise hardware requirement (I have AMD processor). I was reading ideas and I think it's good to start with " Unit and performance tests for VA-API", however, the task doesn't mention potential mentors, therefore, I thought I should send a mail. I'd like to know more about this project and to know who to contact exactly for further queries regarding the same. I've already joined irc channels for the respective task as mentioned in the blog.

[Mesa-dev] OpenCL Support on older AMD GPUs
Hi, Is there likely to be support for OpenCL on older AMD GPUs? I have tried running an OpenCL benchmark (https://github.com/mpicbg-scicomp/gearshifft) on an AMD A6-6420K APU running Fedora 28. The code seems to partially run, but gives incorrect results. Would it be challenging to add full OpenCL 1.1 support? The GPU of particular interest to me is Radeon HD 8470, caicos, which appears to have WIP: https://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature How can one help move this forward? ___ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
