almost identical [kms_]swrast_dri.so files for mesa and arc-mesa |
||||||
Issue descriptionI got curious about this because dianders@ mentioned the list of large files in rootfs in bug 676152 , and I noticed that there's two (almost) identical swrast files under /usr/lib64/dri. Here's the 2 files that are about 23MB each: -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 23210088 Dec 14 15:42 kms_swrast_dri.so -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 23210080 Dec 14 15:42 swrast_dri.so Using hexdump and diff, it turns out that these two files are almost 99.9% binary identical. Only the last 1-2KB or so are different (seems to be the symbol tables and it is most likely to do with the name difference between "kms_swrast_dri" and "swrast_dri"). Maybe we want to figure out if one of the .so is redundant or we could use a symlink.
