 Artemis Tosini (NixOS) | Nice! I remember getting the necessary parts building that once, but I never integrated it into something functional | 15:04:53 |

 K900 | @Puna so uh, Debian has llvm-spirv-translator on ppc64be | 05:35:44 |
| K900 | Can we look at what they're doing maybe | 05:35:53 |
| Puna | debian doesn't build any of the OpenCL-based drivers on ppc64 I think | 05:42:15 |
| Puna | * debian doesn't build any of the OpenCL-based drivers on ppc64 I think? | 05:42:44 |
| K900 | I mean I guess it's possible that they have the package and it just like | 05:43:37 |
| K900 | Doesn't work at all | 05:43:39 |
| K900 | But that would be sus | 05:43:42 |
| K900 | But like it's definitely there: https://packages.debian.org/sid/llvm-spirv-21 | 05:45:18 |
| K900 | And they don't patch it or anything :https://sources.debian.org/patches/spirv-llvm-translator-21/21.1.3-1/ | 05:45:42 |

| Puna | the thing is that glslang, spirv-tools and spirv-llvm-translator all just have parsing bugs on big-endian AFAICT. both in their test suites (most of which we don't run) and when you try to translate existing stuff with them. i just picked spirv-llvm-translator as the scapegoat here (and we likely won't be able to run its test suite, cus it wants LLVM's lit and that seems annoying to set up).

| K900 | Running the test suite should be possible I think | 05:47:33 |

| K900 | Conceptually | 05:47:48 |
| Puna | gallium: softpipe nouveau r300 r600 virgl
vulkan: nouveau gfxstream
nouveau uses OpenCL in current mesa, but mesa on ppc64 debian is held back at 25.0.7-2… | 05:50:57 |
| K900 | Mostly what I'm thinking is, it would be very nice for future reference to have an actual record of what is failing | 05:51:03 |
