Jason Ekstrand has announced the initial release of NVK, a new open-source Vulkan driver for NVIDIA hardware in Mesa.

Introducing NVK

Say hello to a brand new, open-source Vulkan driver for NVIDIA hardware in Mesa. For the past several months, I've been working on writing a brand new open-source Vulkan driver for NVIDIA hardware in Mesa called NVK. This new driver has primarily been written by myself (Jason Ekstrand), along with Karol Herbst and Dave Airlie at Red Hat. In the last month or two, we've started picking up a few commits here and there from community folks and I'm hopeful that community involvement will only increase going forward.
