Hi, Tom, thanks for your kind guidance. within a daunting day, we have made clover work on our APU platform. for your information, we are running on ubuntu 12-04, i386.
out of curiosity, r600 driver relies on the newest llvm API, see llvm 3.2. is it stable? we know LLVM is a fast moving project and their APIs are subject to change year by year. I assume you are working tightly to llvm 3.2 because AMD backend will merge to trunk, right? we ask this question because android-x86 can not support up-to-date llvm. it only has llvm 2.8 now. we may port a certain version of llvm to satisfy with android and mesa. thanks, --lx On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 11:04 PM, Alex Deucher <alexdeuc...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Oct 4, 2012 at 10:53 AM, Tom Stellard <t...@stellard.net> wrote: > > On Thu, Oct 04, 2012 at 10:42:45PM +0800, Liu Xin wrote: > >> Hi, Tom, > >> > >> thank you for your instant response. we decide to try clover for r600. > it > >> should work on ubuntu(11.10), right? > >> have you refined tgsi compiler for r600? > >> > > > > Build instructions for clover + r600g are here: > > http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/GalliumCompute#How_to_Install > > these should work on most any distro. > > > > We are in the process of transitioning from LLVM 3.2 to LLVM 3.1, so > > these instructions may change in the near future. > > 3.1 to 3.2 ;) > > > > > There are no plans to update the r600g tgsi compiler to handle TGSI > > compute instructions.
