RADV

[PhilPotter]

Just a question - is drm-next using a new enough amdgpu driver to take advantage of RADV if compiled from latest Mesa? And if yes, had anyone tried it and got working Vulkan on FreeBSD? I don't have hardware to take advantage in any case, but am planning my next setup/build and would like to put it together with FreeBSD in mind. Thanks.

drm-next is currently on whatever Linux 4.9 contains. There is a 4.10 branch in the works. I don't know if that's yet sufficient for RADV or not. I don't believe anybody has tried, the amdgpu is now in a relatively good shape for daily driving but I would expect there to be some (probably fixable) issues for whoever tries first.

Thanks.

It works! I've played vkQuake with it! Also Dolphin and RPCS3.
