Ekstrand: NVK Has landed
Faith Ekstrand announceson the Collabora blogthat NVK, an open-source Vulkan driver for NVIDIA GPUs, will be included in theMesa 23.3 release.
Merging into mesa/main is certainly a big milestone but NVK isnowhere near finished. It will take a long time before we get thebugs worked out and get a full feature set with reasonableperformance. What it does mean is that we're pretty confident inthe core of the driver and that we have a good base to build ongoing forward.
The necessary kernel support is planned for the 6.6 release; thisblog post from David Airlie describes the work being done on that side.
