Introducing Virgil - 3D virtual GPU for qemu

Virgil is a research project I've been working on at Red Hat for a few months now and I think is ready for at least announcing upstream and seeing if there is any developer interest in the community in trying to help out.

The project is to create a 3D capable virtual GPU for qemu that can be used by Linux and eventually Windows guests to provide OpenGL/Direct3D support inside the guest. It uses an interface based on Gallium/TGSI along with virtio to communicate between guest and host, and it goal is to provided an OpenGL renderer along with a complete Linux driver stack for the guest.

Just a note and I can't stress this strongly enough, this isn't end user ready, not even close, it isn't even bleeding edge user ready, or advanced tester usage ready, its not ready for distro packaging, there is no roadmap or commitment to finishing it. I don't need you to install it and run it on your machine and report bugs.

I'm announcing it because there maybe other developers interested or other companies interested and I'd like to allow them to get on board at the design/investigation stage, before I have to solidify the APIs etc. I also don't like single company projects and if I can announcing early can help avoid that then so be it!

If you are a developer interested in working on an open source virtual 3D GPU, or you work for a company who is interested in developing something in this area, then get in touch with me, but if you just want to kick the tyres, I don't have time for this yet.
