alyssa changed the topic of #panfrost to: Panfrost - FLOSS Mali Midgard + Bifrost + Valhall - Logs https://oftc.irclog.whitequark.org/panfrost - I don't know anything about WSI. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
<alyssa>
scratch that, got a burst of energy tonight and getting close to mergable disk cache
<alyssa>
let's see how bad the bandaid is for this "hardware is unhappy" workaround
<alyssa>
thread count up in 43 (-6) shaders
<alyssa>
bundles hurt by 3% total
<alyssa>
369 affected
<alyssa>
big shrug, idk
<alyssa>
I don't *want* to regress midgard shaderdb by 3% but it's also not going to... matter...
<alyssa>
(disk cache and fixing separate shader corner cases WILL matter..)
<alyssa>
invalid encoding, but why
<HdkR>
Panfrost doesn't have disk cache yet?
<HdkR>
Or just a family?
<alyssa>
HdkR: disk cache coming soon
<HdkR>
Nice, time for Steam to start hosting Panfrost shader cache files in addition to Adreno
<alyssa>
Uh oh
<alyssa>
HdkR: but, uh, there's no way to play x86 games on mali hardware, that's my story :-p
<alyssa>
and im sticking to it ;p
<HdkR>
haha
<HdkR>
Technically Steam on MacOS supports Apple Silicon binaries in the store :P

<alyssa>
HdkR: Do they use nonstandard CPU features?
<HdkR>
I guess they all compile for ARMv8.4+
<HdkR>
MacOS doesn't even let you read EL1 MSRs like Linux does, it's very sad.
<alyssa>
No AMX in steam yet? ;p
<HdkR>
lol, I think the minspec is SSE2 with cmpxchg
<HdkR>
Also x86-64 because no proper 32-bit support in the OS :D

Of course Steam itself doesn't support Apple Silicon, it just supports it as applications it can launch
<HdkR>
Only ~1300 games on Steam support Apple Silicon
<alyssa>
other amx
<HdkR>
I believe saying that it is only x86 provided sufficient details about supporting Apple AMX :P
<Daanct12>
should i get a m1
<Daanct12>
seeing alyssa doing god work on the gpu driver i can't help myself asking this question
<HdkR>
Mac Mini is fairly reasonable price though, Same with Windows Dev Kit 2023
<alyssa>
Daanct12: panfrost is man-years ahead of asahi gpu
<alyssa>
(and my primary focus is and continues to be panfrost.. asahi is a hobby)
<Daanct12>
ah i see. i'm still waiting for a day when i can finally get my hands on a rk3588 dev board, heard that thing is insanely powerful
<alyssa>
panfrost on [anything older than rk3588] is man-years ahead of rk3588
<alyssa>
though that should be turning around :)
<Daanct12>
sounds like i'll be ready by the point i got a 3588 board, but i can still live with llvmpipe as long as it's powerful enough
<Daanct12>
currently i'm with a s922x android tv box that has been consistently overheating (beelink gt-king)
<Daanct12>
that thing has very bad heat transfer because of it's thermal paste stuff, planning on doing a copper heat plate + new thermal paste mod on it one day
<Daanct12>
also i looked at the disassembly on the internet and they didn't even bother putting thermal pad on the dram (which is where most of the mali power are)
<Daanct12>
so i'm going to fix that one day when i'm not too lazy
