Marek Olš?k of AMD finished landing the code needed today in Mesa for exposing the OpenGL 4.0 ARB_tessellation_shader by the RadeonSI Gallium3D driver...

GL3.txt is lying, ARB_shader_precision is already implemented for nc0.

Also EGL 1.5 support got in a few hours ago.

File a bug or notify a developer with a source, GL3.txt is updated manually.

Only subroutines to go for GL4 then. Looks great.

In first place it probably should be GL4.txt these days :P

So Intel / AMD, it would look really nice on the PR front for Linux to advertise 4.2 across the board on all GPUs in time for Steam Machines launching. Just thought I'd mention the timing is appropriate.

As tess require llvm 3.7 and GL 4 will require llvm 3.8... i guess spring 2016. distros will have GL 4

Rejoice peasants

There will probably have a backport of the code to llvm 3.7
