docs/asahi: Add initial driver docs
Emma asked for some docs on how to use wrap for when wrap gets landed. This should do :-) Signed-off-by: Alyssa Rosenzweig <alyssa@rosenzweig.io> Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/16512>

Asahi
|
||||
=====
|
||||
|
||||
The Asahi driver aims to provide an OpenGL implementation for the Apple M1.
|
||||
|
||||
Testing on macOS
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
On macOS, the experimental Asahi driver may built with options:
|
||||
|
||||
-Dosmesa=true -Dglx=xlib -Dgallium-drivers=asahi,swrast
|
||||
|
||||
To use, set the ``DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH`` environment variable:
|
||||
|
||||
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/nobody/mesa/build/src/gallium/targets/libgl-xlib/ glmark2 --reuse-context
|
||||
|
||||
Only X11 apps are supported. XQuartz must be setup separately.
|
||||
|
||||
Wrap (macOS only)
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Mesa includes a library that wraps the key IOKit entrypoints used in the macOS
|
||||
UABI for AGX. The wrapped routines print information about the kernel calls made
|
||||
and dump work submitted to the GPU using agxdecode.
|
||||
|
||||
This library allows debugging Mesa, particularly around the undocumented macOS
|
||||
user-kernel interface. Logs from Mesa may compared to Metal to check that the
|
||||
UABI is being used correcrly.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, it allows reverse-engineering the hardware, as glue to get at the
|
||||
"interesting" GPU memory.
|
||||
|
||||
The library is only built if ``-Dtools=asahi`` is passed. It builds a single
|
||||
``wrap.dylib`` file, which should be inserted into a process with the
|
||||
``DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES`` environment variable.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to trace an app ``./app``, run:
|
||||
|
||||
DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=~/mesa/build/src/asahi/lib/libwrap.dylib ./app
