AMDGPU vs. Radeon GCN 1.0/1.1 Benchmarks With Linux 4.10

[groo_pcd]

Yeah, same for me. The only problem I've had is that I'm unable to start any Vulkan demo programs because of some LLVM linking thing. I tried starting the Talos Principle in Vulkan mode and that crashed immediately.

Could you try again with today (or yesterday) padoka git build? I messed up and was installing the radeon vulkan drivers in the wrong place, i fixed it this week.

Added: i also fixed the stable mesa build

Try Manjaro. They have a simple package for amdgpu support on GCN1.0 and up with working vulkan https://forum.manjaro.org/t/amdgpu-i...njaro/7890/472

That s a good job from AMD, long live to AMDGPU

So I forget - why is GCN1.1 not enabled in the kernel yet? Even though my 290 works fine on radeonsi, it seems to me that it is more stable on amdgpu.

Because it didn't make sense to even start trying to change the default until we reached the point you just described.

I'm also happy with my 290 on amdgpu only, for month already.

It partially ended up being a PTS problem. I removed and purged PTS and then it worked. And by worked I mean The Benchmark worked but the message still remained

Hmm? There should be no VAC for linux at all. Can you tell what the message says?

For anyone who wants to see, here is a link. Same thing happens on all computers tested, this is not a one off.

On article in whole, beside that Hawaii half-issue... it is boring

Looks like pitcairn is in better shape then before. So it's no boring for pitcairn owners too

Michael How do you test with CS:GO? I try and I only get a message about VAC. How do I get the actual benchmark to work? Thanks in advance.
