AMD lopettaa AMDVLK Linux-ajurin kehityksen

[Kaotik]

AMD on ilmoittanut lopettavansa avoimen lähdekoodin AMDVLK Vulkan-ajurin kehitystyön. Jatkossa yhtiö tulee turvautumaan Mesa RADV -ajuriin, joka on ollut jo pidempään harrastajien suosiossa.

AMD ilmoitti jo toukokuussa tulevansa sisällyttämään RADV-ajurin osaksi Radeon Software for Linux -ajuripakettiaan.

"In a move to streamline development and strengthen our commitment to the open-source community, AMD is unifying its Linux Vulkan driver strategy and has decided to discontinue the AMDVLK open-source project, throwing our full support behind the RADV driver as the officially supported open-source Vulkan driver for Radeon™ graphics adapters.

This consolidation allows us to focus our resources on a single, high-performance codebase that benefits from the incredible work of the entire open-source community. We invite developers and users alike to utilize the RADV driver and contribute to its future."
