Intel's Open-Source Vulkan Driver Wires Up Mesh Shader Queries
Building atop the Intel "ANV" Vulkan driver's mesh shader support that's been enabled by default since last year, the newest Mesa 24.2-devel code as of today now adds support for mesh shader queries. The Intel ANV driver now enables "meshShaderQueries" for creating query pools of the VK_QUERY_TYPE_MESH_PRIMITIVES_GENERATED_EXT query type and statistic queries of the mesh and task shader flags.
