For cases with lots of very small primitives, this may improve performance because we're not executing those dead channels all the time. Shader-db reports no instruction or cycle-count changes. However, by hacking up the driver to report when this optimization triggers, it appears to affect about 10% of shader-db. v2 (Kenneth Graunke): Always enable VMask prior to XeHP for now, because using VMask on those platforms allows us to perform the eliminate_find_live_channel() optimization. However, XeHP doesn't seem to have packed fragment shader dispatch, so we lose that optimization regardless, and there's no reason not to avoid vmask.

Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported. Build & install --------------- You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.rst <https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use Meson (`docs/meson.rst <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_): .. code-block:: sh $ mkdir build $ cd build $ meson .. $ sudo ninja install Support ------- 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.
