Comment (by X512):
Hopefully Mesa DRI infrastructure is not needed for Haiku, OpenGL drivers
can be directly based on Gallium (all non-Gallium drivers are declared
obsolete and removed from Mesa source tree), Vulkan drivers do not use DRI
framework.
My experimental implementation provides its own `libdrm` implementation
that allows running Mesa Vulkan drivers almost unchanged and also OpenGL
by using Zink. For OpenGL I use `glvnd` driver loader framework and EGL
`glvnd` driver over Gallium. HGL code in Mesa is dropped and BGLView is
implemented as wrapper over EGL in `glvnd`. My Mesa patches are available
here:
