Mesa, an open source implementation of the OpenGL specification and a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics, is now at version 10.2.4.

Mesa 10.2.4 is the next iteration in the series and implements the OpenGL 3.3 API. This means that some drivers might not support the specifications for the latest Mesa. This build integrates quite a few fixes and changes and it's one of the biggest releases in the last few months.

According to the changelog, a number of geometry shader memory leaks have been fixed, the pixel_x/y workaround has been fixed for all UW types, the bias for samplerCubeShadow on nv50 is now ignored, manual TXD is now used when offsets are involved, the auxiliary surface field #defines for Broadwell has been added, the execution size has been set to 8 for instructions with force_sechalf set, plumbing has been added for Broadwell's auxiliary surface support, 2x MSAA support has been implemented to the MCS allocation function, and compressed multisample support (CMS) on Broadwell has been added.

More details about this release can be found in the official announcement. You can download the Mesa 10.2.4 sources right now from Softpedia. There is no binary file available, so it’s better to get the update from the official repositories.
