Many of these extensions are old and obsolete in modern programming practice they are listed for the sake of completeness. The extension registry has over 300 extensions listed. The registry also contains guidelines for creating new extensions and has example C/C++ header files containing function entry points and token enums. When paired with Copper DRI extension (not yet upstreamed), the average FPS in Tomb Raider is 20% higher on a RTX 2070.The OpenGL Extension Registry is maintained by the ARB and contains the technical specifications of all known OpenGL extensions.

If you are experiencing issues in your default OpenGL drivers (a bug in RadeonSI, Iris, etc.), you could try using the Zink driver.Īccording to this Phoronix benchmark, the average FPS in some applications ranges from 58-105% on Zink compared to RadeonSI, using an AMD RX 6700 XT.Īs of, many applications do not work on NVIDIA GPUs even with the latest driver 495.44 and mesa-git AUR's master branch.

This can be used to get full desktop OpenGL support on devices that only support Vulkan. The Zink driver is a Gallium driver that emits Vulkan API calls instead of targeting a specific GPU architecture.

Tip: In most use-cases, llvmpipe and swr are faster than softpipe. You should see 3 rotating gears when running the program. OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.00įrom the same package, you can also use glxgears as a basic OpenGL test. OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 20.3.4 OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30 OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile OpenGL core profile context flags: (none) OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 3.30 OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 20.3.4 $ glxinfo | grep OpenGL OpenGL vendor string: X.Org To verify your OpenGL installation, you can use mesa-utils glxinfo, which should display output like this (with different values depending on your setup, of course): amdgpu-pro-libgl AUR is the proprietary driver for AMD GPUs.nvidia-utils is the proprietary driver for NVIDIA GPUs, which includes an OpenGL implementation.

Note: When using Mesa, the correct driver should be selected automatically, no configuration needed once the package is installed.

nouveau_vieux : for NVIDIA NV04 (Fahrenheit) to NV20 (Kelvin) GPUs.

i965 : for Intel's Gen 4 hardware and later.

i830 and i915 : for older Intel integrated GPUs.

mesa-amber is the legacy Mesa package which includes the classic (non-Gallium3D) drivers for older hardware:.

#OPENGL EXTENSIONS VIEWER NVIDIA AND INTEL SOFTWARE#

llvmpipe : a software rasterizer which uses LLVM for x86 JIT code generation and is multi-threaded.

softpipe : a software rasterizer and a reference Gallium driver.

d3d12 : for OpenGL 3.3 support on devices that only support D3D12 (i.e.

zink : a Gallium driver used to run OpenGL on top of Vulkan.

iris : for Intel's Gen 8 hardware and later.

crocus : for Intel's Gen 4 to Gen 7 hardware.

virtio_gpu : a virtual GPU driver for virtio, can be used with QEMU based VMMs (like KVM or Xen).

nouveau : Nouveau is the open-source driver for NVIDIA GPUs.

radeonsi : for AMD's Southern Island GPUs and later.

r600 : for AMD's Radeon R600 GPUs up to Northern Islands.

mesa is the up to date Mesa package which includes most of the modern drivers for newer hardware:.

There are two Mesa packages each with a distinct set of drivers: Mesa also provides software rasterizers, such as llvmpipe. It has a collection of open-source drivers for Intel graphics, ATI, AMD and NVIDIA GPUs. Mesa is an open-source OpenGL implementation, continually updated to support the latest OpenGL specification.

To find the code-name of an NVIDIA GPU, check the code-name list from the Nouveau project.

To find the family of an AMD (and ATI) GPU, check the decoder ring from the X.Org project.

Intel's Gen N hardware does not refer to the generation of the CPU, it refers to the generation of the GPU, which is different from the generation of the CPU.
