NVIDIA Adds Vulkan Support To Nsight Systems
Nsight Systems, NVIDIA's proprietary cross-platform tool providing a timeline view of system resource analysis and other metrics while running GPU compute/graphics workloads, now can handle the Vulkan API.
NVIDIA Nsight Systems 2019.3 introduces Vulkan support for Windows and Linux for this performance analysis tool. This allows for developers to better inspect GPU workloads, understand how a process thread is utilized on each CPU core, understand the command buffer creation, swap chain behavior, queues, and other characteristics in debugging issues and optimizing the performance of your game or GPU application.

It Looks Like AMD Is About To Post The Open-Source Radeon "Navi" Driver Code
It looks like the AMD posting of the open-source Radeon driver enablement code for next-gen "Navi" GPUs is imminent. In fact, the first bits of it quietly were pushed out today.
In my habitual monitoring of prominent Git repositories, I noticed today the AMDGPU LLVM back-end began seeing "gfx1010" commits. Yep, GFX1010 is Navi!
So far there's the target definitions that includes workarounds for different architecture bugs and a few new instructions. There's also the SGPR register changes for GFX10 though not too revealing.
