Mesa 17.2.6 is now available and brings many new fixes for Intel and AMD Radeon GPUs, including improvements to SIMD32 and little-core for the Intel i965 OpenGL driver and a fix for a GPU hang that occurred when playing hardware-accelerated video with the MPV open-source video player. For AMD Radeon GPUs, the Mesa 17.2.6 update plugs not one but two memory leaks from the Radeon RADV Vulkan driver, and fixes an issue with the reversing of the tess factor components for isolines. on the r600 driver. On the other hand, Mesa 17.2.6 fixes two performance regressions for the SWR driver and addresses a use-after-free bug in the Gallium driver.
