Mesa 26.2.3 is out today as the newest stable point release in this quarter's Mesa 26.2 series.

This bi-weekly point release issued by Eric Engestrom brings a variety of bug fixes back-ported from the current Mesa 26.3 development code. There are a variety of RadeonSI and RADV driver fixes for AMD GPUs, several Freedreno and Turnip driver fixes for Qualcomm Adreno GPUs, various Intel ANV Vulkan driver fixes including a workaround for the X-Plane 12 flight simulator, the Asahi Gallium3D driver now applies a workaround used on Firefox to also the Zen browser to address tearing and rendering issues, NVK memory leak fixes, and other bug fixes.

The AMD GFX1171 GPU target was also back-ported for Mesa 26.2.3. GFX1171 was added to Mesa 26.3 last month as another GFX117x "RDNA 4m" GPU target. Not much is known still on the upcoming "RDNA 4m" GPUs that are short of a full GFX12/RDNA4 implementation but in any case Mesa 26.2.3 now supports the GFX1171 variant.

The full list of patches found in today's Mesa 26.2.3 release can be found via Mesa-dev.
