Description

A lot has changed in the last six and a half years since the Vulkan spec was first released. Instead of only having one Vulkan driver in Mesa, we now have nine. Mesa has also built quite a bit of shared Vulkan driver infrastructure over the years. Writing a new Vulkan driver today looks little like it did six years ago. In this talk, Jason will give an overview of the infrastructure we have today and how it makes writing Vulkan drivers easier.
