TBH I would of said that the GOL community is anything but toxic :dizzy:

I'm not the most frequent in here nor read every article/post so may miss a lot of it but still, would never consider GOL/users being toxic! .

I admit I pick on liam on occasion :P

AMD Vulkan driver 'radv' is now 'effectively a pass' for conformance

Quoting: CreakKnowing that the Linux kernel maintainers don't allow two drivers enabled for the same hardware at the same time (from what I understood), there's going to be a battle between RADV and AMD if they open source their Vulkan drivers...
They would more than likely merge the two.
I highly doubt that. We may see the AMDGPU-PRO driver making use of radv in future instead of their own implementation below AMDs AL in their driver. Same thing which goes on now with the DC/DAL patchset. It's more work involved there for the AMD devs, and AMD has been .. slightly pissed off not being able to do what ever they want for their hardware in the kernel, so we may still end up with two implementations in the end ;-).
We are referring to Vulkan and Radv not the kernel driver

Or AMD would hand it to dave to integrate into RADv which I feel they would do.
