| mamarley | tseliot: I added support for the NVIDIA EGL libraries to gpu-manager.c in ubuntu-drivers-common. It is in ppa:mamarley/staging. I also tried to add it to prime-select, but I am not a Python programmer and that code befuddled me. | 11:26 |
| tseliot | mamarley: actually I'm working on that, and I'm trying to track down a segfault in the new code | 11:27 |
| mamarley | Ah, OK, so I guess I wasted my time. There was just a user complaining about it yesterday, so i figured I would take a stab at it. | 11:27 |
| mamarley | Well, at least I can tell him that it is being worked on. :) | 11:27 |
| tseliot | mamarley: not necessarily. What code did you based it on? | 11:27 |
| tseliot | *base | 11:28 |
| tseliot | mamarley: as in, did you use git? | 11:29 |
| mamarley | No, sorry. | 11:29 |
| tseliot | mamarley: so, no diff | 11:29 |
| mamarley | No, not really. I could take the file I modified and diff it against another one if you wanted though. | 11:30 |
| mamarley | One problem I did run into was that the nvidia-xyz-prime/ld.so.conf files only have the path to the mesa GL libs, not the EGL ones, so this may require a modification to the NVIDIA packages as well. | 11:31 |
| tseliot | I've just downloaded the sources | 11:31 |
| tseliot | mamarley: that is something that we need | 11:32 |
| tseliot | mamarley: but aren't the libraries all in the same place? | 11:33 |
| mamarley | tseliot: Nope, the GL ones are in /mesa and the EGL ones are in /mesa-egl | 11:33 |
| tseliot | mamarley: right, I even added code for that in gpu-manager. Patches for nvidia are welcome, if you have the time | 11:34 |
| mamarley | tseliot: You mean patches for the packages in the Ubuntu archives? | 11:35 |
| tseliot | mamarley: or for yours. I merged some of the changes from the PPA, and I have them in my local branch, so that might work too | 11:36 |
| tseliot | also, the change should be trivial | 11:36 |
| mamarley | OK, sure. Are we doing this only for Xenial? | 11:36 |
| tseliot | mamarley: for now | 11:39 |
| mamarley | tseliot: OK. I am a bit busy at the moment but I can upload patched NVIDIA drivers for all the versions for Xenial a little later today. | 11:39 |
| tseliot | mamarley: it works for me, thanks | 11:39 |
| mamarley | No problem | 11:40 |
| tseliot | mamarley: BTW, I might end up adopting your code for gpu-manager. It definitely wasn't a waste. My code, on the other hand... ;) | 11:41 |
| mamarley | I was actually surprised at how quickly I was able to get that part working. I haven't written plain-old C in quite a while, so I was expecting more trouble. | 11:43 |
| tseliot | yes, I like simple. I went with a more complex solution, and screwed up at some point | 11:44 |
| tseliot | I think I'll simply add the C code that I wrote to make it possible to test the EGL alternatives, and the python code | 11:49 |
| mamarley | OK, and I will let you know once I have those patched drivers uploaded. | 11:50 |
| tseliot | thanks | 11:52 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: did I promise to upload apitrace at some point? | 13:43 |
| tjaalton | to debina | 13:43 |
| tjaalton | -an | 13:43 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: I believe you may have, yes. :P | 15:05 |
| tjaalton | hah, so I'll do that now :P | 15:06 |
| tjaalton | hmm now that I look at it, the pristine-tar commit shows a different tarball name than the changelog | 15:18 |
| tjaalton | changelog has +repack | 15:18 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: should it be without +repack? | 15:21 |
| RAOF | Hm, let me check. | 15:22 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: Bah, pristine-tar should have the +repack. | 15:23 |
| tjaalton | ok | 15:25 |
| RAOF | Sorry. :) | 15:27 |
| tjaalton | so it's the same tarball though, or should have some files filtered out? | 15:28 |
| RAOF | It's got the files filtered out, it just has the wrong name. | 15:30 |
| tjaalton | ah, ok | 15:30 |
| tjaalton | so I'll just rename it | 15:30 |
| tjaalton | and maybe import | 15:30 |
| RAOF | Yeah. You *can* just rename the files on the pristine-tar branch, but gbp complains wierdly about that. | 15:31 |
| tjaalton | heh, first time I've actually checked out a pristine-tar branch.. | 15:33 |
| tjaalton | was going to just rename the built tarball | 15:33 |
| mamarley | tseliot: I have uploaded new versions of all the supported driver versions for Xenial with the Mesa EGL directory in the Prime ld.so.conf to https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages. 346 failed to upload, but that is due to a screwup I made a long time ago while packaging an older driver version. | 15:51 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I also uploaded 361.18 again for Wily, Vivid, and Trusty to remove the EGL alternative since those aren't going to get Prime support for EGL. | 15:52 |
| tseliot | mamarley: ok, thanks. BTW, I managed to get my gpu-manager code to work. That is well integrated with the test suite, so, I'm going to use that (I appreciate your effort though). | 15:55 |
| RAOF | Hm. We should remove the arch qualificatons for the Mir EGL patch. | 18:12 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: Mind if I enable Mir in Mesa on aarch64, s390x, powerpc, etc? | 23:00 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: nope, go ahead. pushed ubuntu branch too, now that 11.1.1 is in xenial | 23:19 |
| RAOF | ??? | 23:34 |
| RAOF | tjaalton: I do not yet see 11.1.1, apart from on the Ubuntu branch. | 23:34 |
| tjaalton | huh | 23:35 |
| tjaalton | oh hell, forgot to upload of course | 23:36 |
| tjaalton | done | 23:36 |
| RAOF | Win! | 23:37 |
