The Wiki in this repo has been removed, and the about section mentions that this is laanwj's personal fork, and not the upstream. So let's update the link to the upstream repo instead. There's no wiki there either, but the main repo itself contains a readme file with some docs. Most of this is pretty stale, but it seems better than nothing. In the longer run, we should probably create a page about etnaviv in the drivers directory of these docs, and try to keep that up to date.

Platforms and Drivers
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Mesa is primarily developed and used on Linux systems. But there's also
|
|
support for Windows, other flavors of Unix and other systems such as
|
|
Haiku. We're actively developing and maintaining several hardware and
|
|
software drivers.
|
|
|
|
The primary API is OpenGL but there's also support for OpenGL ES, Vulkan,
|
|
EGL, OpenMAX, OpenCL, VDPAU and VA-API.
|
|
|
|
Hardware drivers include:
|
|
|
|
- Intel GMA, HD Graphics, Iris. See `Intel's
|
|
Website <https://01.org/linuxgraphics>`__
|
|
- AMD Radeon series. See
|
|
`RadeonFeature <https://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature>`__
|
|
- NVIDIA GPUs (GeForce 5 / FX and later). See `Nouveau
|
|
Wiki <https://nouveau.freedesktop.org>`__
|
|
- Qualcomm Adreno 2xx-6xx. See :doc:`Freedreno
|
|
<drivers/freedreno>`
|
|
- Broadcom VideoCore 4 and 5. See :doc:`VC4 <drivers/vc4>` and
|
|
:doc:`V3D <drivers/v3d>`
|
|
- ARM Mali Utgard. See :doc:`Lima <drivers/lima>`
|
|
- ARM Mali Midgard, Bifrost. See :doc:`Panfrost <drivers/panfrost>`
|
|
- Vivante GCxxx. See `Etnaviv
|
|
Wiki <https://github.com/etnaviv/etna_viv>`__
|
|
- NVIDIA Tegra (K1 and later).
|
|
|
|
Layered driver include:
|
|
|
|
- :doc:`D3D12 <drivers/d3d12>` - driver providing OpenGL on top of
|
|
Microsoft's Direct3D 12 API.
|
|
- :doc:`SVGA3D <drivers/svga3d>` - driver for VMware virtual GPU
|
|
- :doc:`VirGL <drivers/virgl>` - project for accelerated graphics for
|
|
QEMU guests
|
|
- :doc:`Zink <drivers/zink>` - driver providing OpenGL on top of
|
|
Khronos' Vulkan API.
|
|
|
|
Software drivers include:
|
|
|
|
- :doc:`LLVMpipe <drivers/llvmpipe>` - uses LLVM for JIT code generation
|
|
and is multi-threaded
|
|
- Softpipe - a reference Gallium driver
|
|
|
|
Additional driver information:

Deprecated Systems and Drivers
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In the past there were other drivers for older GPUs and operating
|
|
systems. These have been removed from the Mesa source tree and
|
|
distribution. If anyone's interested though, the code can be found in
|
|
the Git repo. The list includes:

|
|
|
- 3dfx Glide
|
|
- 3DLABS Gamma
|
|
- ATI Mach 64
|
|
- ATI Rage 128
|
|
- ATI Radeon 7000 - 9250
|
|
- DEC OpenVMS
|
|
- Intel i810
|
|
- Intel i830 - i865
|
|
- Linux Framebuffer
|
|
- Matrox
|
|
- MS-DOS
