Mesa 25.2.2 Ships The Latest Open-Source OpenGL & Vulkan Driver Fixes

([Mesa] 3 Hours Ago Mesa 25.2.2)


Mesa 25.2.2 is out today as another on-time, bi-weekly Mesa point release managed by Eric Engestrom.

Mesa 25.2.2 is now available with the latest batch of fixes atop last month's [1]Mesa 25.2 release that serves as this quarter's feature release for these open-source OpenGL and Vulkan drivers.

Some of the fixes to land for Mesa 25.2.2 over the past two weeks include:

- FIxing Mesa's GL_EXT_shader_clock support.

- A number of Radeon video acceleration fixes. This includes work by AMD engineer David Rosca to fix various RadeonSI VCN issues, particularly for systems running outdated GPU firmware. There is also a RADV Vulkan Video fix for VP9.

- The NVK Vulkan driver has seen a number of fixes, including support for larger QMDs and other updates for newer hardware.

- A few Intel "ANV" Vulkan driver fixes along with a number of other Intel driver fixes like some missing L3 cache flushes.

- 14 patches from Mike Blumenkrantz to provide more fixes for Zink with OpenGL implemented atop the Vulkan API.

- A DRIRC workaround for handling broken behavior with ANGLE.

The full list of Mesa 25.2.2 changes can be found via the [2]mailing list announcement . Mesa 25.3 meanwhile will be the next feature release due out around November and currently in development with the mainline Git code.
