Hello Timo, or anyone else affected,

Accepted wayland-protocols into noble-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wayland-
protocols/1.38-1~ubuntu0.24.04.1 in a few hours, and then in the
-proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
noble to verification-done-noble. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-noble. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The graphics HWE stack from plucky needs to be backported for 24.04.3

  directx-headers
  - backport from plucky
  - bumped build-dep of mesa

  spirv-headers
  - backport from plucky
  - build-dep of new spirv-tools

  spirv-tools
  - backport from plucky
  - has a bugfix that the intel shader compiler needs
  - NOTE! the current version in noble FTBFS even without any updates enabled, but this version builds, hence the full backport instead of just patching the current one

  wayland-protocols
  - bumped build-dep of mesa
  - note: this is NOT the version from plucky, which would require a newer wayland
    as well, but instead the oldest update to make mesa happy

  mesa
  - new major release, last of the series (25.0.7) so it has accumulated all
    the fixes upstream considered worthy for it
  - new HW support, bugfixes

  [Test case]

  We want to cover at least 2-3 different, widely used and already previously supported GPU generations from both AMD and Intel which are supported by this release, as those are the ones that cover most bases; nouveau users tend to switch to the NVIDIA driver after installation. No need to test ancient GPU's supported by mesa-amber. And best to focus on the newer generations (~5y and newer) as the older ones are less likely to break at this point.
  - AMD: Vega, Navi1x (RX5000*), Navi2x (RX6000*), Navi3x (RX7000*)
  - Intel: gen9 (SKL/APL/KBL/CFL/WHL/CML), gen11 (ICL), gen12 (TGL/ADL/RKL/RPL/DG2)

  Install the new packages and run some tests:
  - check that the desktop is still using hw acceleration and hasn't fallen back to swrast/llvmpipe
  - run freely available benchmarks that torture the GPU (Unigine Heaven/Valley/Superposition)
  - run some games from Steam if possible

  and in each case check that there is no gfx corruption happening or
  worse.

  Note that upstream releases have already been tested for OpenGL and
  Vulkan conformance by their CI.

  [Where things could go wrong]
  This is a major update of Mesa, there could be regressions but we'll try to catch any with testing. And since it shares bugs with plucky, we'd already know if there are serious issues.
