Modularized dri drivers and an SDK enabled mesa tree are available in my personal git repos at http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~libv/
The SDK enabled mesa tree adds to the mesa build system to create shared libraries libmesadri and libmesadricommon. It creates the relevant .pc files and installs the necessary headers include/mesa/ (and updates glcore.h). The patch is about 300 lines each time, and only adjusts the build system. The modularized drivers are fully autotooled and can be built and installed the familiar way once the dependencies are available (currently, libdrm and the dri sdk, and some driver specific libdrms for i9xx and radeon). These drivers are i810, i9xx (i915 and i965), mach64, mga, r128, radeon (also includes r200, r300 and r600), savage, sis, tdfx and unichrome. This work was done for currently 16 versions between mesa 7.0 and the freshly tagged 7.8-rc1, all were extensively and oft repeatedly built through. 5 versions were also run tested (glxinfo, glxgears) for the radeon and unichrome drivers, and the swrast driver was also tested several times. Such a large range of versions was handled to prove the long term feasability of this. This work satisfies my requirements from my "TODO: Mesa" slide from my fosdem talk, for which the slides are available at: http://people.freedesktop.org/~libv/graphics_driver_stack_(FOSDEM2010_-_slides)$ This only handles the DRI part of things, gallium seems to be more in flux atm, and from what i hear, it should be easier to have modular drivers there. Comments, additions, changes?
