Vulkan Cooperative Matrix Merged For RDNA4 GPUs With RADV, DCC Support Inches Closer
Last week when RADV lead developer Samuel Pitoiset with Valve was commenting on the AMD RDNA4 state with the Mesa RADV driver it was noted that Vulkan cooperative matrix support, Vulkan Video encode/decode, and DCC support were still missing
Merged today is support for VK_KHR_cooperative_matrix on GFX12 / RDNA4 hardware as the latest feature now crossed off the TODO list for these upcoming AMD Radeon graphics cards. The other bit of good news for RDNA4 on the RADV Vulkan driver is the DCC support coming together for delta color compression as an important performance feature. So hopefully that RADV DCC support will be all merged in time for the Radeon RX 9070 series graphics cards launching in March.
