Example URL:
chrome://gpu

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Run against llvmpipe 0.5
2. chrome://gpu shows a problem with GPU not working due to "VMware software renderer on older Mesa"

What is the expected behavior?
GPU works.

What went wrong?
https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/gpu/config/software_rendering_list.json?l=413&rcl=3fab2ea25adb3374c3fc4f040df147f8541cf944

Chromium has a check "Disable VMware software renderer on older Mesa" that should disable the software renderer on llvmpipe < 9.2.1.

That check is implemented by saying "all llvmpipe >= 9.2.1 are allowed".

It matches against

    "gl_renderer": ".*Gallium.*llvmpipe.*"

so far that works, because the renderer string (e.g. of osmesa) looked like this:

    Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 4.0, 256 bits)

But in version 0.5, it looks like this instead:

    llvmpipe (LLVM 5.0, 256 bits)

Note how they have dropped the word "Gallium".

That is why Chromium's regex no longer matches successfully, and the driver is accidentally not allowed.

The fix is to switch the regex to ".*llvmpipe.*" instead.

Note there are 3 occurrences of this regex in that file.
