** Description changed: [Impact] The graphics HWE stack from questing needs to be backported for 24.04.4 builds available on https://launchpad.net/~canonical-x/+archive/ubuntu/x-staging/+packages rust-annotate-snippets-0.11 - bumped runtime dep of rust-bindgen-0.71 - forked as a new versioned source package rust-proc-macro2-1.0 - bumped build-dep of rust-bindgen-0.71 - forked as a new versioned source package meson-1.7 rust-bindgen-0.71 rust-bindgen-cli-0.71 - bumped build-deps of mesa - forked as a new versioned source package rust-no-panic-0.1 - bumped build-dep of mesa - forked as a new versioned source package rust-rustc-hash-2 - new build-dep of nvk driver - new source in noble libdrm - bumped build-dep of mesa wayland-protocols - bumped build-dep of mesa - this is a full backport, but with tests disabled so that we don't need to backport a newer wayland as well (due to the need for wayland-scanner) mesa-compat - a new source package based on 25.1.7 plus a revert bringing osmesa back - builds libxatracker and libosmesa which got removed from main mesa mesa - new major release, last of the series (25.2.x) so it has accumulated all the fixes upstream considered worthy for it - new HW support, bugfixes [Test case] - We want to cover at least 2-3 different, widely used and already previously supported GPU generations from both AMD and Intel which are supported by this release, as those are the ones that cover most bases; nouveau users tend to switch to the NVIDIA driver after installation. No need to test ancient GPU's supported by mesa-amber. And best to focus on the newer generations (~5y and newer) as the older ones are less likely to break at this point. + For the rusty build-depends, the only test needed is to see that they + build, and they allow mesa to build. + + For mesa, we want to cover at least 2-3 different, widely used and already previously supported GPU generations from both AMD and Intel which are supported by this release, as those are the ones that cover most bases; nouveau users tend to switch to the NVIDIA driver after installation. No need to test ancient GPU's supported by mesa-amber. And best to focus on the newer generations (~5y and newer) as the older ones are less likely to break at this point. - AMD: Vega, Navi1x (RX5000*), Navi2x (RX6000*), Navi3x (RX7000*) - Intel: gen9 (SKL/APL/KBL/CFL/WHL/CML), gen11 (ICL), gen12 (TGL/ADL/RKL/RPL/DG2) Install the new packages and run some tests: - check that the desktop is still using hw acceleration and hasn't fallen back to swrast/llvmpipe - run freely available benchmarks that torture the GPU (Unigine Heaven/Valley/Superposition) - run some games from Steam if possible and in each case check that there is no gfx corruption happening or worse. Also test WebGL on a browser like Firefox/Chromium - open https://webglsamples.org and run some demos Note that upstream releases have already been tested for OpenGL and Vulkan conformance by their CI. [Where things could go wrong] This is a major update of Mesa, there could be regressions but we'll try to catch any with testing. And since it shares bugs with plucky, we'd already know if there are serious issues.
