Can you trace it with apitrace, and upload the trace file?
After installing apitrace (it should be in the Manjaro repos), you can just do:
$ apitrace trace -a egl retroarch
and then reproduce the problem.
Check it replays with
$ apitrace replay retroarch.trace
(If that doesn't work, you might need to remove the file and try again without "-a egl")
Compress the file with xz / zstd / whatever then stick it somewhere I can download it.
I realise I've been neglecting to post anything here for a while, so
this has content from two or three updates...
mesa-git-20.3.0_devel.127750.ac6b8e42ce2-1:
Changes from 14a12b771d0 to ac6b8e42ce2:
Performance:
- Implement EXT_multisampled_render_to_texture, which improves WebGL
perfomance in Chromium (!6161)
- Many refactorings, resulting in reduced CPU overhead
- Temporary buffers are now stored in an array rather than a hash table, reducing
CPU overhead searching the table (!6494)
Fixes:
- Fix a crash in wined3d for Mesa compiled in debug mode (!6085)
- Fixes for some Firefox WebRender shaders (!6144)
- Fix a deadlock with Source engine games (!6190)
- AFBC (automatic texture compression) support (!6159)
- Many memory leak fixes (!6373)
Known regressions:
- The optimisation for streaming textures broke, impacting
software-decoding mpv and some software-rendered games. This has
been fixed upstream. (!6608)
- Synchronisation for AFBC blits has caused some applications, notably
DarkPlaces, to drop to unplayable frame rates. There is no fix for this yet.
- SuperTuxKart has regressed, causing 'melty' characters. Now fixed upstream. (!6659)
OpenGL 3.0 is almost enabled by default now - only one more MR needs
to be merged for all required extensions to be supported (!6675)
Next week at XDC there is going to be some news about Panfrost,
but I'm not allowed to tell you what it is...
