<x11@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 232778: graphics/mesa-libs: Enable xatracker
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D232778



--- Description ---
In preparation for vmwgfx, the drm kernel driver for vmware graphics, we ne=
ed
to have mesa produce the XA tracker (a shared library and some header files=
).

xf86-video-vmware will autodetect these files during build and enable kms a=
nd
drm support. If the kernel module, vmwgfx, is not loaded at runtime,
xf86-video-vmware will fallback to software rendering (tested) so nothing
should break for non-kms users.

libxatracker.so is both build and runtime dependency to xf86-video-vmware.

Adding

CONFIGURE_ARGS+=3D --enable-xa

to mesa-libs/Makefile should be sufficient (and modify dependencies as need=
ed).
