Description

The compiler the panfrost drivers currently use for Bifrost and later hardware is starting to show its age. It was originally developed as a Bifrost compiler and Valhall support was bolted on as an afterthought. This summer, a few of us at Arm and Collabora have been building a brand new compiler for Valhall and later hardware. In this presentation, we'll talk about the new compiler, the rational for rewriting instead of fixing the old one, and our plans for the Panfrost compiler stack going forwards.
