RADV on Windows is getting attention for good reason.
With Valve supporting our work to bring Mesa’s open source Vulkan driver for AMD GPUs beyond Linux, the effort points to what a shared driver codebase could unlock: easier debugging, faster fixes, and more collaboration across platforms.

#Mesa26.2 bringt frische #Grafiktreiber und #Optimierungen
Das #Mesa-Projekt hat Version 26.2 veröffentlicht. Das Update verbessert #Grafiktreiber, #Vulkan-Unterstützung und die #Hardwarekompatibilität unter #Linux.
Besonders #Gamer profitieren von zahlreichen Änderungen. Die #Vulkan-Treiber #RADV, #ANV, #NVK und Turnip wurden weiter ausgebaut. Sie bilden die Grundlage für Technologien wie #Steam #Play, #DXVK, #VKD3D-Proton und viele native #Vulkan-Spiele.

Ha sorprendido mucho el encargo de #Valve a @collabora para llevar #RADV a #Windows. A mí el primero, vamos.
Pero creo que es un movimiento muy inteligente que, por lo pronto, puede hacer muy accesible este controlador a estudios, por ejemplo.
La verdad que es una noticia flipante...

Seeehr interessanter Move:
#Valve Sponsors Work Bringing Open-Source Radeon #Vulkan #RADV Driver To Windows
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Valve-Sponsors-RADV-Windows
RADV ist besser optimiert als der offizielle Vulkan-Treiber von AMD für Windows. Indem sie die RADV-API auch auf Windows bringen, verbessern sie (zumindest für AMD-GPUs) die Vulkan-Situation auch auf der Plattform und das könnte ggf. langfristig eine Abkehr von Direct3D-Zielprogrammierung in großen Spielen nach sich ziehen.

Ah, yes, the thrilling tale of porting #RADV to Windows—because who wouldn't want to trap a wild, free Linux driver in the #Windows cage? 🖼️🔗 Let's all pretend it's not just an elaborate dance to make Linux devs feel superior for having something Windows users didn't even know they needed. 🤡🎉

What would it take to bring Mesa’s open source Vulkan driver for AMD GPUs to Windows?
RADV’s experimental Windows port is getting closer to running real workloads, while highlighting one of the key challenges ahead: building a stable interface to AMD’s proprietary kernel driver.

Por la ciencia y el bien de la humanidad: estoy jugando para probar si una variable de entorno, que modifica el comportamiento de #RADV, sirve para evitar los "crasheos". Por ahora, bien, oye. Tengo que seguir probando.

RADV Driver Enhancements Enable Performance Gains via VRS Optimizations

Valve publica una nueva implementación Anti Lag y de baja latencia para que sea incluida en el controlador de Vulkan para Linux, RADV ¿En qué consiste y cómo funciona esta nueva y prometedora implementación?

I want the same #gaming #performance as #CachyOS but I stay on #Arch. CachyOS is basically Arch with preconfigured tweaks. I build the same setup myself, so I know what every single #screw does and why it is there. No #ballast I do not understand, full #control. If something breaks, I know exactly where to look.
My #plan:
1. #CachyOS #repo and #BORE #kernel
2. #sysctl tweaks
3. #udev #scheduler rules
4. #amdpstate, preferred core
5. split lock off
6. #ananicy
7. #gamemode
8. #GEProton
9. #mesagit
10. #RADV transfer queue
11. #GPU performance level
12. #EXPO in the #BIOSFunny detail: the #CachyOS #wiki itself has a #guide for Arch users who do not want to switch but want full control.

Just in case anybody missed it: Marek Olšák (mareko) moved from AMD to Valve, as you can see from his #FDO GitLab profile: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mareko
And as anybody would expect, who knows him a bit, he hit the ground running (though that seems slow, when it comes to Marek) and has already the first MRs for #RADV merged, eg. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/41689 (read the MR description to know, why I've linked it 😉).
This is certainly a loss for #AMD and a major win for #Valve

Se vienen importantes mejoras en el rendimiento del raytracing para el driver libre de Vulkan en tarjetas gráficas AMD en Linux.
Aunque todavía está pendiente de que el código programado por Valve se incluya en Mesa, hay ya comparativas en el hilo del merge request de pasar de ejecutar el videojuego Silent Hill 2 Remake de 40 FPS a 60 FPS.

Mesa's #RADV getting a debug HUD (RADV_HUD=1).
"It currently reports memory budget and PSO cache stats (useful for validating pre-compilation). It's still very preliminary and it will be improved over time to report more info, for debugging purposes and for performance (ie. performance counters)." -- Samuel Pitoiset

#Linux 6.19's Significant ~30% Performance Boost For Old #AMD #Radeon #GPU
With Linux 6.19, the GCN 1.0/1.1 GPUs are now defaulting to modern #AMDGPU kernel #driver in place of the legacy "Radeon" DRM driver that has been the default for GCN 1.1/1.0 and other #ATI/AMD graphics processors of the past 2+ decades. Besides #RADV #Vulkan support when comparing #OpenGL tests that ran on both kernel drivers, on average with Linux 6.19 was 30% better performance out-of-the-box!

Schön, dass mesa/radv Fortschritte macht. Ich denke jetzt, da AMD die Sackgassen amdvlk und ihren proprietären Treiber eingestellt haben, können dort mehr Ressourcen einfließen :neocat_happy: #amd #mesa #radv #linux #gaming #raytracing #benchmark

AMD lopettaa pelikohtaiset RDNA 1 & 2 -näytönohjainten ajuripäivitykset Windowsille. Linux? Avoimine ajureineen turvassa ✌️
Näiden korttien hintahan tulee myös samalla ropisten alas. Pingviinin kannattaa alkaa sovittelemaan ostohousuja; Linuxissa RDNA1 / RDNA2 käyttäen Mesa, RADV -ajureita on muikea kokemus.
Moinen päätös yleisen tuen päättämisestä näinkin uusille laitteille dunkkaa pahasti, totta maar. Päätös ei siis kuitenkaan kosketa Linuxia ja siinä suosittuja avoimia ajureita -- Windows-käyttäjät taas töräytetään ikään kuin nyssen alle.

Adiós a AMDVLK... Pero no te preocupes que te lo vamos a explicar .
Actualmente en Linux hay dos drivers de Vulkan para tarjetas AMD. El primero es RADV, que está desarrollado por Valve y es el que usas por defecto. El segundo es AMDVLK, que estaba siendo desarrollado por AMD, y que es peor en todo salvo en raytracing.
La situación lleva a una división de esfuerzos que ahora se arregla ya que AMD va a apostar por RADV.

AMDVLK è ufficialmente dismesso. AMD punta tutto su RADV per il supporto Vulkan su Linux. Una scelta strategica che semplifica lo sviluppo e rafforza il sistema open source. Scopri cosa cambia. #Linux #AMD #Vulkan #RADV #Mesa #OpenSource

Radeon Software For Linux Dropping #AMD's Proprietary OpenGL/Vulkan Drivers
»The release notes mention AMD #AMF will also no longer be included with users encouraged instead to target the Video Acceleration API (VA-API) within Mesa for their multimedia accelerated needs.«
Sehr gut, dann wird bald jede Software VA-API bei AMD-GPUs unterstützen müssen, auch #Handbrake!

AMD goes MORE open source by default ✅
RADV (Mesa 3D graphic driver stack's Vulkan driver) officially supported by AMD now - out of the box Linux conveniency + !
Vulkan? An open API for modern gaming graphic needs.
"Starting with 25.20: The Mesa Vulkan driver will be officially supported, along with Mesa OpenGL and Multimedia support. The AMD proprietary OpenGL and Vulkan drivers will no longer be included in the release."

｢ Mesa's Radeon Vulkan driver "RADV" is now exposing its emulated ray-tracing support by default for older AMD Radeon GPUs even without any form of hardware-accelerated ray-tracing in order to run the new Indiana Jones game. It turns out even the emulated RT mode is fast enough to allow various older AMD Radeon graphics cards to be playable with this title ｣
