--- Comment #1 from Kenneth Graunke <kenn...@whitecape.org> ---
Mesa already does have threading support similar to the NVIDIA drivers.
Threading is currently enabled via an application whitelist, as it's helpful
for certain games, but hurts others. You can see the current whitelist here:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/util/drirc
If you'd like to force threading to be enabled, just set an environment
variable before running the application:
export mesa_glthread=true
If it helps a particular game, feel free to submit a patch adding the binary
name to drirc, so we can whitelist it for everyone.
The radeonsi driver also makes use of threading to offload a bunch of work. It
also has threaded shader compilation.
Currently, none of the above work on the Intel i965 driver. If that's the
hardware you're interested in, feel free to reopen this.
