USB-C display output on Rockchip is coming together, one upstream piece at a time. Our work on the upcoming Flipper One is helping advance DisplayPort Alt Mode support for RK3588/RK3576, addressing the USB-PD, PHY, hotplug, and DRM challenges along the way to mainline Linux: col.la/usbcdisplayp...

Kraid is now the default Panfrost compiler for Valhall and newer Mali GPUs! ⚡ The new compiler cuts shader instructions and spilling, speeds up compilation, lowers memory use, and provides a stronger foundation for future Panfrost optimization. col.la/panfrostkraid #Kraid #Panfrost #Mesa #Vulkan

OpenXR spatial containers are here: an open, cross-platform API for spatial windowing in XR. Apps can switch between a bounded multitasking mode and a full immersive mode, with the system managing placement. www.khronos.org/blog/openxr-... #OpenXR #XR

Android graphics stacks are getting a stronger open source path. With Turnip, Mesa’s #Vulkan driver for Qualcomm Adreno GPUs, we helped bring Android conformance, cleaner platform integration, shared runtime plumbing, and real-device CI into the same upstream-focused stack. col.la/mesaonandroid
