| zzarr | hello! | 16:34 |
|---|---|---|
| zzarr | this is just a "what if" question, if I have a Vulkan driver for a graphics card, when Mir have support for Vulkan, would that mean that I could use Mir with that driver, or does it not work that way? | 16:37 |
| alan_g | zzarr: essentially, yes. Although there might be some caveats. camako ^? | 16:42 |
| kdub | zzarr, I think if its vulkan supported via mesa, you'll probably be alright (because mir has a mesa platform) | 16:49 |
| kdub | if its supported via <a blob>, support will come when <a blob> is a supported mir platform | 16:50 |
| zzarr | okey | 16:58 |
| zzarr | so, I'll have to wait and see | 16:59 |
| zzarr | there's a Vulkan driver comming to Mali GPU's but I don't know how/if it will be open/closed source | 17:00 |
| kdub | well, thats an android platform | 17:00 |
| kdub | and android is supported | 17:00 |
| kdub | what we would need there is hybris support for vulkan | 17:01 |
| kdub | which afaik, is not present | 17:01 |
| zzarr | well kdub, I have an ASUS Chromebook Flip, which Ubuntu would be lovely on ;) | 17:02 |

| camako | zzarr, answering your original question, mir support needs to be added to every Vulkan driver separately | 17:32 |
| camako | zzarr, there is no such thing as Mir support for Vulkan in Mir | 17:32 |
| camako | zzarr, Mir support must be in the individual drivers themselves | 17:33 |
| camako | We have a prototype for the Mesa Vulkan Intel driver - we were able to do this ourselves since Mesa is open source | 17:34 |
| camako | We'll upstream it when everything is ready | 17:34 |
| camako | We also have a prototype for the LunarG Intel Vulkan driver - not sure if that one is worth upstreaming (or even if that's possible... maybe) | 17:35 |
| zzarr | camako: I thought that it was that way | 17:45 |
| zzarr | I have to wait and see what they release | 17:45 |
| camako | zzarr, when is this expected to come out? | 17:46 |
| zzarr | camako: I don't know, it says comming soon | 17:51 |
| zzarr | is this something useful? http://malideveloper.arm.com/resources/drivers/open-source-mali-gpus-ump-user-space-drivers-source-code/ | 17:54 |
| camako | not to me :-) | 18:00 |

| zzarr | okey | 18:04 |
| zzarr | some day, I will read about how ump and all the other parts of a gpu driver (I only know about kernel-driver and user-space driver yet) | 18:06 |
| zzarr | is there an ongoing porting of openjdk to mir? | 18:17 |

| sil2100 | Hello! Could anyone review an mir MP? I mean the one in the following silo: https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/1421 | 18:25 |
