Right, I can put Piglit on top of virgl and see how well that works. It
would be good to enable virgl ‘out of the box' at some point, I've been
proposing that for a while :)

OE-Core is meant to be usable for validating BSPs amongst other things<br>
though. Testing virgl does prove the graphics stack is working too from<br>
a software perspective so does have some value.</blockquote><div \
