Hi everyone,
Thank you all so much for your comments and replies.

@Micha: Understood. I agree that the 800-file diff for the 25.3.3 CVE backp=
ort is too intrusive for a clean review. I am withdrawing that proposal.

@Fabian: That sounds like the correct path forward. Since you are planning =
to sync the toolchain (llvm) from Forky, do you have a rough timeline for t=
hat or the spirv-* packages?

I'd be happy to help test the Mesa 26 build or assist with the package prep=
aration once the dependency stack lands in trixie-backports. I have Intel A=
rc hardware ready to validate the whole stack.

Best regards,
stornic56
