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 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.
