CLVK Is Piping OpenCL On Top Of Vulkan

[Guest]

Awesome! This won't help Northern Islands and older, but oh well.

DXVK, CLVK. Good. Now can we do a GLVK and get rid of 80% of mesa code?

Technically, you wouldn't be getting rid of mesa as much as you would be retargetting mesa to use vulkan as a low-level back-end instead of the current Gallium3D.
(And writing as many Vulkan drivers necessary to support the same hardware as all current Gallium3D back-ends).

But yeah, the Mesa dev have even though a bit about it (though experiment about one day replacing gallium3d back-end with something which is basically vulkan + a few extra "mesa"-specific extensions, to cover the things that a high level tracker like openGL needs, but vulkan doesn't provide - e.g.: memory management Vulkan extensions didn't exist back then).
