Newer Arm Mali GPUs Now Advertising Vulkan 1.2 Support With Mesa's PanVK Driver


Following recent Vulkan 1.1 support within Mesa for the PanVK driver for open-source Arm Mali Vulkan driver support, Vulkan 1.2 is now being advertised.

Vulkan 1.2 is now being advertised by the PanVK driver for Arm Mali v10+ hardware, which is basically their Valhall 3rd gen architecture and newer. Erik Faye-Lund of Collabora elaborated in the commit bumping the support to Vulkan 1.2 for PanVK:"While not yet officially conformant, we support all the required features, and we pass the CTS. Let's mark off Vulkan 1.2, to make things easier for applications."
