Enabling this option makes Intel Gen8-11 hardware load the 'iris'
driver by default instead of the older 'i965' driver.
Regardless of how this option is set, users can still override which
driver the loader selects via two methods. The first is to create a
~/.drirc or /etc/drirc file with the following snippet:
<driconf>
<device driver="loader" kernel_driver="i915">
<option name="dri_driver" value="i965" />
</device>
</driconf>
The other option is to set an environment variable:
export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965
For now, "prefer_iris" defaults to i965 (the historical choice).
A separate future patch will change the default driver to iris.

`Mesa <https://mesa3d.org>`_ - The 3D Graphics Library ====================================================== Source ------ This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa. Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported. Build & install --------------- You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.html <https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use Meson (`docs/meson.html <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_): .. code-block:: sh $ mkdir build $ cd build $ meson .. $ sudo ninja install Support ------- Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is appropriate, you should ask your question on `Freenode's #dri-devel <irc://chat.freenode.net#dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if necessary. Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might take a while before someone qualified sees your question. To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your question, check out `Who's Who on IRC <https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_.
