DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Faith Ekstrand (Collabora)\nWhen Vulkan 1.0 first ca
 me out a decade ago\, writing Vulkan drivers was fun.  You just mapped API
  bits to HW bits and off you go!  In 2026\, with Vulkan 1.4 and hundreds o
 f extensions\, it's not so simple.  There is legacy cruft we all have to c
 arry.  There are 3 versions of some enums which have to be remapped by som
 eone.  There are duplicate entrypoints and queries everywhere.\n\nIn the O
 penGL world\, we have an answer for this: Gallium.  Is it time for a Galli
 um for Vulkan?  In this presentation\, Faith will talk about why she think
 s it's time\, what that layer would look like\, and what it would mean for
  the Vulkan drivers that exist in the tree today.\n\nhttps://indico.freede
