ChanServ changed the topic of #panfrost to: Panfrost - FLOSS Mali Midgard & Bifrost - Logs https://oftc.irclog.whitequark.org/panfrost - <macc24> i have been here before it was popular

<erlehmann>
is anyone here familiar with OGLES2 shader programming and mali GPU?
<erlehmann>
it seems that minetests OGLES2 renderer uses more than the guaranteed minimum of instructions for some shader stuff
<erlehmann>
sfan5 (a minetest developer) maintains that no one is willing to put in the work of fixing this
<erlehmann>
but maybe someone here has a mali GPU and can program shaders and is willing to take a look?
<erlehmann>
macc24 wait you told me to come here. do you have the affected mali 400 in your posession?
<macc24>
oh my god
<macc24>
mali 400
<macc24>
it's a bad idea to ask me anything rn
<macc24>
i should not be on irc when unsober
<macc24>
bye
<erlehmann>
but the ballmer peak!
<erlehmann>
sober programming is overrated, some of the worst bugs were created by people entirely sober
<HdkR>
Going over the hardware limit of instructions basically means your need to write your shaders to stay under the limit. Same problems that old Intel hardware used to have.
<erlehmann>
hey, i am running stuff on old intel hardware.
<macc24>
erlehmann: y'know, if reporting bugs leads to insults you're doing it wrong
<HdkR>
Only insult so far is to old hardware at this point?
<erlehmann>
macc24 i was once called a terrorist for ending like 5 bug reports with “a mandatory code review would have been a great opportunity to spot this mistake”, but in my defense, it lead to code reviews.
<erlehmann>
yes, ppl love to say “your hardware is too old / too niche” etc. pp.
<erlehmann>
regardless, i am not going to fix shaders on mali gpu simply bc i do not have a mali gpu
<HdkR>
In any case, both sides can approach the problem. Both sides might not be able to fix the problem. It's what happens when you hit hardware limits like this.
<erlehmann>
but if anyone of you plays minetest, feel free to ping me
<macc24>
erlehmann: i play some minestest to annoy driver devs and find bugs
<macc24>
s/find bugs/poke holes in drivers/
<erlehmann>
oh, it is a great game to do that
<erlehmann>
the reform bug was amazing
<erlehmann>
having missing backface culling show the back … of a player face
<erlehmann>
backface culling was never so literal and will never again be
<alyssa>
mali 400 is in #lima
<alyssa>
panfrost is for mali t720 and newer
<HdkR>
Midgard 1st gen cries
<macc24>
mali t830? unsupported???????
<erlehmann>
thank you alyssa
<alyssa>
macc24: t830 should work fine
<alyssa>
and i think i accidentally allowlisted it (and t880) last week, have fun
<macc24>
alyssa: i have a phone with mali t830
nlhowell has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
<macc24>
i got it today as replacement for curent phone but its actually slower

so ill try to make mainline linux work on exynos 7870
<macc24>
i want to make it run but my zero self esteem tells me ill fail so yall will never hear about it again
<alyssa>
exynos is admittedly a bad omen
<macc24>
listen im incredilby insecure about myself and i need concrete proof taht im not just a random person and i actually know something
<macc24>
so illl make thaat exynos phone usable on mainline kenrel
<macc24>
oops i was too honest
<erlehmann>
i think that is adorable
<erlehmann>
also a good goal
<erlehmann>
i also hate programming, but like results!
