Hardware OpenGL ES emulation is a new feature of the Android SDKĮmulator introduced by Google since JellyBean. In short, Nvidia hardwareĪcceleration is not supported by Android-x86. Currently no any Android-x86 developer has Nvidia device or However, the porting of nouveau to Android-x86 is notįinished. Nvidia chip is supposed to be supported by Mesa using the nouveauĭriver. Interesting in the project may read its web: However, so far the progress is very slow as I know. "New High Priority Project: PowerVR drivers" PowerVR is proprietary thatĭoesn't have open source implementation yet. There are some Intel chip equipped with PowerVR engine by Imagination (olv) since 2011-2012 and has merged to the Mesa upstream. We have ported Mesa to Android to support hardwareĪcceleration on Android-x86. It is usually used by X window system for the 3D hardwareĪcceleration. OpenGL specification - a system for rendering interactive 3D graphics. Mesa ( ) is an open-source implementation of the Graphic HAL: gralloc.drm (src: hardware/drm_gralloc) GLES libraries: Mesa libraries (src: external/mesa, external/drm)ģ. It's on ourĬurrently we only support hardware acceleration for some IntelĢ. To enable GLES hardware acceleration on our x86 devices. Shame that no x86 vendor is willing to provide these things to help us Unfortunately in the Android-x86 world we are not that lucky. For Google Nexus series, Google allows the public toĭeveloper can use them to create an Android image with hardware Usually 1 and 3 are open sourced,īut 2 is almost proprietary and provided by the chip vendors in theīinary form.
In Android arm world, these are almost provided by the chip vendors
There are several steps to enable GLES hardware acceleration on Android: Intended for the developers who want to contribute to this field. This is a technical document that describes the plan to enable OpenGLĮS hardware acceleration for some x86 GPUs which don't have nativeĪndroid support from the open source community or their vendors.
