P3b/P4b deepening, landing under the P7 program (PLAN-PH-P34B-P7.md 1.2, wave 2-D
package D2). The code half of "按存储属主键控的发射游标与 view 索引重映射" landed in
P4a/P5e; this is the verification half it never had.
TextureViewAliasScenario, four cases: an upload through a layer-restricted view
sampled through the owner and the reverse, each once and again across draw
boundaries so the drain runs three times. Each case asserts on TWO channels at
once - sampled texels AND MGPipeTextureEmitter's SubDataCount / RefusedSubDataCount
/ DrainListSize, read through the new Harness/TextureEmitPeek. The counters are the
load-bearing half: a level that never made it onto the drain list is still uploaded
by the next whole-level respecify, by a glGenerateMipmap or by the monolith sync
path, so the picture comes out right one frame late and a pixel-only case goes green
over the regression on most trees.
Registered in the three GLES split arms, and MOBILEGL_ESPRYT_ENABLE_TEXTURE_VIEW=1
added to MGL_ITEST_GLES_{SPLIT,SPAWN,TCP,TCPDEVICE}_ENVIRONMENT - views are Espryt's
opt-in and without it every case green-skips. The Tcp arm needed the knob on the
TcpServer.Start fixture as well: that lane's server is pre-started rather than
spawned from the client, so it withheld GL_ARB_texture_view and all four cases
SKIPPED while the identical Split and Spawn arms ran.
Red-once (R-16): TextureObjectView::MarkStorageDirtyRegion made to call
PipeNoteLevelDirty on ITSELF instead of forwarding to the storage owner - the
two-cursor shape. TheViewUploadDrainRunsAgainAfterADrawBoundary goes red on both
channels simultaneously (stale owner texels AND SubDataDelta() == 0). The plan
predicted case (a); it is (c) that reds, because the first drain of a texture's life
carries the whole level anyway - recorded in the note.
TheOwnerUploadDrainRunsAgainAfterADrawBoundary is EXCLUDED BY NAME from the split
arms: it is red on all three transports and green under monolith, because an
owner-side resource_subdata moves only the owner's record.Serial and nothing
propagates that to the records viewing it. Cause and the two candidate fix sites are
named in the CMake comment and in notes/p34b/espryt-d2.md. The name stays in every
lane (G14).
MobileGL
A desktop OpenGL implementation
MobileGL is a free and open-source project that implements a desktop OpenGL API. The goal is to provide a complete desktop OpenGL implementation with a state management layer and multi-backend support.
Note
Status: In development. Parts of the codebase are incomplete. Current short-term target: OpenGL 4.2 (Core Profile).
Project positioning
MobileGL is an implementation of a desktop OpenGL library. It aims to provide:
- Full OpenGL state management.
- A front-end that exposes OpenGL functions.
- Multiple independent backend implementations, where each backend targets a specific graphics API and remains fully isolated from others.
This project is intended as an implementation/translation layer.
Key components
The repository is organized into following top-level modules:
- MG_State — state tracking and management logic for Graphics APIs.
- MG_Impl — front-end implementations of Graphics APIs that interact with
MG_StateandMG_Backend. - MG_Backend — per-backend translation layer that maps front-end Graphics APIs' semantics and state into concrete backend API calls (e.g. OpenGL ES, Vulkan).
- MG_Util and other utility modules.
Third-party components

Build Instructions
We currently provide no releases and no precompiled binaries.
If you want to try the project right now, you’ll need to build it yourself:
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/MobileGL-Dev/MobileGL.git -
Initialize and update all submodules recursively:
git submodule update --init --recursive -
Follow glslang’s own documentation for its required initiation.
-
Configure and build the project with CMake:
cmake -B build cmake --build buildor do it in a modern way:
cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++ cmake --build buildAlternatively, you can use platform-specific build commands as needed.
Build For macOS
On macOS, MobileGL can be built as a dylib that exposes the normal OpenGL/CGL/NSOpenGL entry points and routes them to the DirectVulkan backend. This is useful for running applications such as Minecraft through their stock GLFW/LWJGL OpenGL path while MobileGL is injected before context creation.
Prerequisites:
- macOS with Clang and Ninja.
- Vulkan loader and MoltenVK installed. With Homebrew, the MoltenVK ICD is commonly located at
/opt/homebrew/etc/vulkan/icd.d/MoltenVK_icd.json.
Configure and build:
cmake -S . -B build-macos-magma \
-G Ninja \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DMOBILEGL_BACKEND_TYPE=DirectVulkan \
-DMOBILEGL_BUILD_TEST=OFF \
-DMOBILEGL_BUILD_BENCHMARK=OFF
cmake --build build-macos-magma --target MobileGL -j8
The dylib will be generated at:
build-macos-magma/libMobileGL.dylib
To run Minecraft by MobileGL from a launcher like PrismLauncher, keep the stock LWJGL/GLFW natives and add a wrapper command to the instance settings:
env DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/absolute/path/to/MobileGL/build-macos-magma/libMobileGL.dylib MOBILEGL_BACKEND_TYPE=DirectVulkan VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/opt/homebrew/etc/vulkan/icd.d/MoltenVK_icd.json
Also make sure the JVM arguments include:
-XstartOnFirstThread
DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES must be active before GLFW creates its OpenGL context. After startup, the Minecraft F3 screen should report MobileGL and the Direct (Vulkan) backend if the injection worked.
Build Options
| Option | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
MOBILEGL_BUILD_TEST |
Build MobileGL tests (requires Clang) | ON |
MOBILEGL_BUILD_BENCHMARK |
Build MobileGL benchmarks (requires Clang) | ON |
MOBILEGL_FORCE_RELEASE_OPT |
Enable O3 and LTO in Debug build | ON |
MOBILEGL_ENABLE_TRACY |
Enable Tracy profiler for performance analysis | OFF |
Notes:
- The project requires C++23.
MG_TestandMG_Benchmarkcan only be built with Clang, not GCC. To enforce Clang, add-DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=clang -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=clang++to your command.- On Android, tests and benchmarks are always disabled.
