![]() Most machines that use such old GPUs have CPUs that need every bit of help they can get as it is, even before you try loading the weight of doing more stuff in software (via llvmpipe or anything else). Users will still continue to be able to use the hardware (with less chance of regressions, actually).Those GPUs are still perfectly fine for video acceleration of the formats/sizes people watch on such machines (DVDs and 360p Youtube videos, for instance). And again, branching out into a legacy branch doesn't mean support will be removed. There's some discussion on mesa-dev about just enabling llvmpipe instead of using HW acceleration. ![]() ![]() These kinds of GPUs have limited use nowadays anyway. That is a far cry from "constant upgrading". The discussion is about branching out support for *really old* GPUs, around 10 years old and sometimes older.
