Looking good apart from the FIXME and:

[K900]

Also fixed the fixme.

rc2 is out, if you want to update the draft

[K900]

Confirmed RC2 builds, pushed.

[matdibu]

rc3 was just released, could you check if there any regressions?

And out of pure curiosity, was there any kind of regression between rc1 and rc2?

[K900]

No issues on either rc2 or rc3. That said, updated.

[K900]

-rc4 works fine, also added xcbutilkeysyms to enable the Vulkan WSI to capture traces when a hotkey is pressed.

Quick note, newer versions (direct commits, but this might affect rc5 when it's out) break for me in some local testing these versions fail to build for nouveau if you're not building the radeonsi driver too it seems (which only happens if you override the package anyway), requiring the code from upstream MR № 26680 (as a patch) to compile.

24.1 is out

[K900]

Updated to 24.1.0 release, no issues here.

[pyrox0]

Been testing this for a few days(AMD Drivers, Ryzen 7640HS CPU), and I'm seeing much better stability and performance than current main branch.

[niklaskorz]

Tried on an Nvidia GPU (RTX 4090) to test the new NVK drivers with Vulkan 1.3 support, but unfortunately no Vulkan app launches (getting segmentation faults and out of memory errors on start). I don't think this is NixOS specific though, looks like my hopes for Nvidia on Mesa 24.1 were a bit too high. :') OpenGL works fine (tried Firefox, some WebGL websites, YouTube videos in 4K, Epiphany, VS Code, glxgears, sway, Gnome) and is even quite performant (~70% of the FPS I see on proprietary drivers for glxgears with swapinterval 0).

Edit: upstream issue is at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/11166
Edit 2: ok the referenced issue mentions a commit that is not even part of Mesa 24.1, so that's strange, must be something else then on my side...
Edit 3: NVK modifiers have been backported to 24.1 in this commit so it's likely causing my issues after all: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/9e27390d68bf15ca90b92a11b162b93c841e0659

Any ETA on this?
The 24.1 release of Mesa is quite important to me and to support modern ARM SBCs, as it includes support for the Mali-G610 found in RK3588-based SOCs, in boards such as the Orange Pi 5 or Radxa Rock Pi 5

[K900]

We follow upstream Mesa guidance and don't ship .0 releases. Mesa 24.1.1 should be out in a few days, and we will ship that after a staging cycle.

Try with kernel 6.10-rc1 (or rc2), I was hitting the same issue on 6.9.2.
6.10-rc1 has an important patch for drm modifiers.

@niklaskorz This MR should fix the issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/29563

Also, Asahi driver is included.

Just changing the version and hash in this PR from what it currently is at to this builds fine. No other changes needed.

version = "24.1.1";
hash = "sha256-ADiCbG9+iNkLTOb3GRkvpYyn3t9O3KoRdM972SDvieo=";

[K900]

Building a bunch of stuff locally to confirm, will merge after.

x86_64-darwin is broken: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/262379171
(aarch64-darwin perhaps as well; waiting for rustc fix first)
