In Summary :
It had been more than two weeks since the last time AMD developers updated their public source trees making up the official AMDVLK Vulkan driver but fortunately that has now changed. Given the time since the last commit, there is a lot of goodies with this new AMDVLK driver refresh.
Those building the AMDVLK driver from source for using this "official" Radeon Vulkan driver in place of Mesa's RADV driver, the latest batch of changes include:
- Support for the VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64 extension to handle atomic operations on 64-bit integers.
- Support for Google's VK_GOOGLE_decorate_string and VK_GOOGLE_hlsl_functionality1 for the decorate string SPIR-V bits and help with their Direct3D to Vulkan mapping, respectively. [...]
