I'll try that first and let you know if it works.
I hate to break the bad news. Tried this just now - still get hangs :( So I guess, all userspace clients* does need to use RS-format if we use this feature. GPGPU workloads seems to be special use-case where the RS hwbinding table format can be disabled. Otherwise, I guess we are stuck with this inflexibility. [1] On the other hand, it doesn't seem all that bad though. The RS hw-binding table format are only needed for clients that submit vertex and pixel shader commands. I've identified currently just UXA and SNA that seem to use this besides Mesa.
