  25. Re:Hallelujah on ARM Code for Raspberry Pi Goes Open Source (Video) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I feel like the tech press really dropped the ball on this and swallowed the hype from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The drivers are not open source. The userspace stubs are.The stubs just use RPC to talk to the real driver which is still closed. Go look at the source code linked:

    https://github.com/raspberrypi/userland/blob/master/interface/khronos/glxx/glxx_client.c#L488

    The code here does nothing except RPC – this is not a driver. Which means that it’s not possible add OpenCL or new OpenGL versions. This announcement is a disgusting lie.
