[Nouveau] [Bug 96957] New: [NVE0] Feature request: Support Vulkan on Kepler cards.
bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96957 Bug ID: 96957 Summary: [NVE0] Feature request: Support Vulkan on Kepler cards. Product: Mesa Version: git Hardware: Other OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: Drivers/DRI/nouveau Assignee: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: ovariegata at yahoo.com QA Contact: nouveau at lists.freedesktop.org Hi, If at all possible can vulkan be supported on kepler cards? It would have immediate benefits for use with RetroArch and the mupen64plus (parallel) libretro core which recently added vulkan support for their new plugin based on the old cpu based angrylion plugin from the original mupen64plus project. Angrylion is not very usable without a powerful cpu despite being the most accurate plugin for nintendo64 emulation, but now with the new parellel plugin this changing quickly. However anyone using nouveau drivers can not take advantage of this new feature unlike those with intel, amd or nvidia drivers. Nvidia supports Vulkan on both kepler and maxwell cards, but given the state of maxwell and nouveau it would be great if at least kepler could be supported. Here are some relevant links concerning RetroArch. libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-3-5-released libretro.com/index.php/first-ever-revolutionary-n64-vulkan-emulator-coming-soon-only-for-libretro-parallei github.com/libretro/RetroArch github.com/libretro/mupen64plus-libretro Thanks! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Nouveau] [Bug 96957] [NVE0] Feature request: Support Vulkan on Kepler cards.
bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96957 --- Comment #1 from Ilia Mirkin <imirkin at alum.mit.edu> --- This is not the proper forum for feature requests like this. The people behind nouveau are certainly aware of Vulkan, in a perfect world, would develop drivers for it. However, it's a lot of work. It took Intel developers many months working full-time and with several people to support it. Nouveau just doesn't have this sort of manpower. If you're interested in leading such an effort, join us at #nouveau on irc.freenode.net. If you're interested in open-source support (GL or otherwise), buy an AMD gpu next time - giving your money to NVIDIA isn't helping anyone [involved in OSS]. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96957 --- Comment #2 from ovariegata at yahoo.com --- Thanks for the reply, I have already talked to you about this in #nouveau and made this request again here so that it would be more visible given recent developments with RetroArch. I do realize it would be a lot of work and even though I would like to help with this I'm just not nearly at that level of programming yet. Also, not really relevant, but I have not given any money to nvidia in years and don't plan to again. My card is second hand. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
