Turnip Freedreno Android

[klark231]

can you please release the vulkan.so for Android for use on Termux.

[MastaG]

You can download the patched turnip driver from the releases page.
Extract it and rename vulkan.ad07XX.so to libvulkan.so for use with Termux.
If you're running Ubuntu in proot/chroot then you can just use the PPA as described in the README

[klark231]

hmmmmmmmmmm but in most ubuntu chroot we use libvulkan_freedreno.so

[MastaG]

Yes, then just follow the instructions and add the launchpad ppa repository :)
You'll get the nightly dri3 patched turnip driver with kgsl enabled.

I tried to rename libvulkan.so to libvulkan_freedreno.so but it doesnt work game wont boot

[klark231]

oh well thought it worked but I was using another driver didnt notice. tried your again and wont do anything

[MastaG]

But are you using termux native or proot?

[klark231]

But are you using termux native or proot?

chroot with ubuntu noble

[klark231]

But are you using termux native or proot?

actually have you tried it with wine or only linux apps?

[MastaG]

I've tried SuperTuxKart with both native vulkan and zink and vkmark and it all works fine on my S24.
This is Ubuntu 24.04 with proot.
It also works on my OnePlus 7T Pro in chroot.

But I'm using the driver from my PPA as per instructions of the readme.

For the record the PPA is nightly built from Oibaf's mesa (main git) with the dri3 patches applied and kgsl enabled.
No need to load custom libvulkan drivers as the PPA will upgrade the OS driver packages.

so I was able to make it work now. but it works a lot slower than other turnip drivers. others tested it too

you can try turnip by Mobox it works almost 2x faster than this for some reason

[MastaG]

Perhaps this is because I don't apply any other patches or open merge requests.
The PPA repository contains mesa from main git, with only the dri3 patch and the kgsl enabled.

[MastaG]

I just rebased the dri3 patch and launchpad built new packages for both 24.04 and 24.10.
Try doing apt update + upgrade.

Can this driver work at all for termux native?

[MastaG]

yes, I've tried it on both termux proot and chroot.
however keep in mind that these are nightly builds.. so stuff can break from time to time.

I see. I'm basically trying to get hardware acceleration working in termux native with out proot. Iv done so much research and my research has landed here for something more updated and patched. I'm still a noob and I'm trying hard to learn do you mind giving me a basic run down of how I can get this build of yours to work in the native termux environment at all? There's freedrino but unfortunately it's not very updated to support 750 like this is.

[MastaG]

I have a Samsung S24 which features a A750 and that's already supported for a while now within mesa.
Oh wait, you said native?

I didn't try that, the PPA is build for Ubuntu 20.04 and 20.10, so they probably won't work with termux native due to linkage / libc differences, so it won't work.

Checkout the termux repo's, there should be one or two mesa packages, you could try to edit them so they build with the dri3.patch from my repo.

[astroskyoffical]

Yeah that sound like a good way to fix this issue. Basically just patch the ones that come from termux and make it work somehow.

[astroskyoffical]

Hey idk if this can help anyone or you @MastaG but basically I got Qualcomm drivers working in termux native lol......and to see how huge the speed increase is an understatement. This .Deb package is about to be pushed to termux and I thought I'd shared this discovery with you so you can work out it's kinks. There's a few issues. Bender marks run amazing. I get almost 1k fps with glmark2 and vulkn tests. However there's graphics issues and a few opengl translation issues

I made a reddit post about it just now

Hopefully this can fixed!
