2025-11-06docs: Give more reproducible instructions for how to build the docs.Emma Anholt
I routinely don't update the docs because the build (hawkmoth in particular) is a pain. The prior instructions almost worked, except that on Debian you need to use a venv (which is a good idea to do for py3-clang as well for reproducibility, anyway), and the versions that were listed didn't actually run any more due to a revoked dependency.

2025-11-06vulkan/runtime: Add an environment variable to validate shader binariesFaith Ekstrand
Setting MESA_VK_VALIDATE_SHADER_BINARIES will cause the shader code to round-trip every shader through [de]serialize and only ever use the deserialized version. This catches bugs where the driver may drop things in the [de]serialization process. It also deserializes the new shader again and compares it against the original to ensure that deserialize -> serialize is idempotent. Acked-by: Eric R.

2025-11-05docs/perfetto: Explain using tracebox, and put commands in the list.Emma Anholt
This binary that perfetto builds automatically launches traced and traced_probes, doesn't need tmux installed, doesn't need you to know tmux ui, and doesn't need the tmux helper script hacked to not call the wrong arch's ninja if you cross compiled. Also, it's silly to send people into an explanation and links to docs, when we have the instructions they actually want below.

2025-10-29radeonsi: enable ACO by defaultMarek Olšák
NIR+ACO is the best SSA-based shader compiler for AMD GPUs that exists. There are many reasons why NIR+ACO is better than LLVM, and I have a long list that I've collected over the years, but the major ones are better GPU performance (faster GPU memory access thanks to better clauses and scheduling, a lot less SGPR/VGPR spilling, better loop support, slightly smaller shader binaries), 8x lower shader compile times, and smaller memory footprint of the IR. It also shows that NIR is a mature SSA-based shader compiler that helps drivers generate optimized code very quickly. And most importantly, radeonsi has slightly better Viewperf performance with NIR+ACO than LLVM, and that's difficult to ignore.
