How The Radeon OpenGL Performance Has Evolved From The HD 2900XT To RX Vega
This comparison can't easily be achieved on Windows due to the older cards being pushed off onto a different "legacy" driver path, which isn't the case under Linux with the open-source drivers. All of these graphics cards from the R600 and RV770 to Vega were tested with the amd-staging-4.12 Linux 4.12 kernel paired with Mesa 17.3-dev built against LLVM 6.0 SVN. The mainline Linux kernel and Mesa continue going back to supporting hardware on the R600 Gallium3D driver and even older with the R300 Gallium3D driver still being semi-maintained within the Mesa source tree.

radv on SI and CIK GPU - update
I recently acquired an r7 360 (BONAIRE) and spent some time getting radv stable and passing the same set of conformance tests that VI and Polaris pass.
The main missing thing was 10-bit integer format clamping for a bug in the SI/CIK fragment shader output hardware, where it truncates instead of clamps. The other missing piece was code for handling f16->f32 conversions according to the vulkan spec that I'd previously fixed for VI.

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future TechThe metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world. Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
