Public bug reported: [Impact] Currently bionic still uses an older version of the vulkan loader (version 1.1.70) with some fixes added on top. Since Vulkan api development is happening at a fast pace, the loader should be kept updated. The latest versions of the loader contain a lot of fixes and updates which are required to support latest version of Vulkan API.
The latest loader, i.e., 1.1.121 or later should be made available with bionic. [Test case] Check all vulkan apps, so that they work as before. [Regression Potential] The vulkan loader is backwards compatible, so it should be an enhancement without regressing any functionality. ** Affects: vulkan (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853102 Title: Update Vulkan loader in bionic to version 1.1.121 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vulkan/+bug/1853102/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
