Mesa 25.1.6, a bugfix release, is now available for users of Mesa 25.1. This update addresses several issues, including improved handling of NULL pColorAttachmentLocations in the vkCmdSetRenderingAttachmentLocations function, adjustments to maximum image dimensions to align with hardware capabilities, and fixes for video surface tiling related to H.265 and VP9 formats on GFX 12.5+. It also resolves issues related to fence leaks in GetImage/PutImage, as well as in radeonsi/video and radv/video components.
The release includes contributions from multiple developers, with key fixes addressing a range of graphics processing tasks, such as adjusting push constants, optimizing resource invalidation, and ensuring compatibility with different shader and video engine requirements. Notably, improvements have been made in the handling of Vulkan interfaces, and the documentation has been updated to reflect changes and provide guidance for users.
For anyone encountering issues, feedback can be submitted through the designated GitLab page. The next bugfix release is scheduled for two weeks later, on July 30th.
For users looking to download the new version, the tarball is available, and checksums for verification are provided. This release signifies ongoing support and enhancement for the Mesa graphics library, which is crucial for a wide variety of open-source graphics applications.
To extend this summary, one could discuss the significance of these updates in the context of open-source graphics development, the collaborative nature of the contributions from various developers, and the importance of community feedback in the iterative process of software improvement. Additionally, highlighting the impact of these bug fixes on performance and compatibility across different hardware would be beneficial for users considering the upgrade
