https://libre-riscv.org/nlnet_2019_amdvlk_port/ i've submitted a funding request to the Charitable Foundation, NLNet, for people to be the recipient of donations to work on a port of MESA RADV (or AMDVLK, as appropriate) to the Libre RISC-V Hybrid CPU / GPU / VPU. as this is a *hybrid* CPU/GPU, once the chain of GLSL-SPIRV-NIR-LLVMIR-assembler has generated the assembly code, it is executed *directly* on the Libre RISC-V SoC, *not* shipped over an IPC/RPC mechanism to a [separate] GPU. as mentioned in the link above it has a lot in common with swiftshader, except that swiftshader is not really suitable, here. if there is anyone who would like to help with this, and be the recipient of direct (tax-deductible) funding from NLNet for doing so, please do contact me privately or off-list. one important request: to fulfil NLNet's Horizon 2020 Backing (Grant agreement No 825310), we need at least one EU Citizen to sign the MOU. this is *not* a contract. the EU Citizen does not have to *reside* in the EU, they just have to have an EU Residence. more information about NLNet is here: https://nlnet.nl/foundation/ with many thanks, l. _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
