Rosenzweig: Dissecting the Apple M1 GPU, the end
Alyssa Rosenzweig has written a blog post about her work to help ship a "great driver" for the Apple M1 GPU that supports OpenGL, Vulkan, and enables gaming with Proton.
We've succeeded beyond my dreams. The challenges I chased, I have tackled. The drivers are fully upstream in Mesa. Performance isn't too bad. With the Vulkan on Apple myth busted, conformant Vulkan is now coming to macOS via LunarG's KosmicKrisp project building on my work.
Satisfied, I am now stepping away from the Apple ecosystem. My friends in the Asahi Linux orbit will carry the torch from here.
Rosenzweig indicates her next project will be working on Intel's Xe-HPG graphics architecture. LWN covered her talk on Apple M1/M2 GPU drivers in October 2024.
[$] The tangled web of XSLT browser support
The Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) language is used by web browsers to style XML content to make it easily readable; XSLT is part of the HTML living standard that is maintained by the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG). Only a small fraction of web sites serve content that requires web browsers to support XSLT, in part because major browser implementations have neglected the technology over the past 25 years. Now, it seems, they would like to rid themselves of it entirely. A plan to disable XSLT in Blink (Chrome's rendering engine) and a pull request by a Google Chrome developer to remove mentions of the specification from the HTML standard have been met with opposition, but arguments in favor of XSLT have proven ineffective.
