Mesa <https://mesa3d.org>
_ - The 3D Graphics LibraryThis repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa. Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.
Go to the folder with Mesa code and run the commands:
$ meson . build -Dgallium-va=disabled -Dgallium-drivers=virgl -Ddri3=disabled -Dvulkan-drivers= -Dglx=xlib -Dplatforms=x11 -Dbuildtype=release
$ ninja -C build
Before building earlier versions of Mesa, you need to apply a fix: "virgl/vtest: fix memory overwrite problem in virgl_vtest_send_get_caps()" https://github.com/Mesa3D/mesa/commit/060936fe0de668127310a65e607fa4b7b48d6f0a
You can find more information in our documentation (docs/install.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/install.html>
), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (docs/meson.rst <https://docs.mesa3d.org/meson.html>
):
.. code-block:: sh
$ meson setup build $ ninja -C build/ $ sudo ninja -C build/ install
Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is
appropriate, you should ask your question on OFTC's #dri-devel <irc://irc.oftc.net/dri-devel>
, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your
question, check out Who's Who on IRC <https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>
.
The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the
mailing lists: mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org <https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev>
