Rosenzweig: From Panfrost to production, a tale of Open Source graphics Alyssa Rosenzweig reports
on the progress of the Panfrost driver. " Since our previous update on Panfrost, the open source stack for Arm's Mali Midgard and Bifrost GPUs, we've focused on taking our driver from its reverse-engineered origins on Midgard to a mature stack. We've overhauled both the Gallium driver and the backend compiler, and as a result, Mesa 20.3 -- scheduled for release at the end-of-the-month -- will feature some Bifrost support out-of-the-box." | | 11:47p |
Signed pushes for kernel.org Kernel.org manager Konstantin Ryabitsev describes
the Git signed-push functionality, which is now supported by the kernel.org system. " To help hedge against this problem, git provides
developers a way to sign their actual pushes, as a means to attest 'yes, I
actually did intend to push these commits into this ref in this repository
on this server, and here's my PGP signature to prove it.'" Among other things, these signatures can be preserved in a commit transparency log, which
is also now provided by kernel.org. |
