Initially planned for a November 25 release, the second Mesa 13.0 3D Graphics Library point release introduces a total of 58 changes across all supported drivers, including but not limited to Radeon, Intel i965, and VC4. Basic Gemini Lake support was implemented in the Intel i965 driver, and there great improvements to Vulkan drivers. Additionally, it looks like the X11 WSI integration has seen numerous fixes, Apollo Lake and Kaby Lake SKU strings were added to the Intel i965 driver, the Intel ANV Vulkan driver now correctly handles unsupported formats, and it looks like there are a couple of Wayland enhancements for Vulkan support.
