            Bug ID: 106646
           Summary: Support VK_IMAGE_USAGE_STORAGE_BIT for WSI swapchain
                    surfaces
           Product: Mesa
           Version: git
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Drivers/Vulkan/Common
          Assignee: mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: bugs.freedesk...@haasn.xyz
                CC: airl...@freedesktop.org, chadvers...@chromium.org,
                    dan...@fooishbar.org, ja...@jlekstrand.net

It would appear as though RADV (and ANV, judging by the code) on both X11 and
Wayland only support the following hard-coded list of VkImageUsageFlags:

   caps->supportedUsageFlags =
      VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT |
      VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT |
      VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSFER_DST_BIT |
      VK_IMAGE_USAGE_COLOR_ATTACHMENT_BIT;

Could we get VK_IMAGE_USAGE_STORAGE_BIT added to this list? Other Vulkan
implementations I looked at (NVIDIA and AMDVLK) both support it, and simply
adding it to the list seems to work just fine for me. (on RADV+X11, not sure
about ANV or Wayland)

Use case: I have a rendering pipeline (mpv/vlc/libplacebo) that may involve the
use of a compute shader during the final output step, in order to do HDR peak
detection. If the swapchain image supports STORAGE_BIT then I can directly
paint to screen without needing to allocate an intermediate texture and
roundtrip through a fragment shader unnecessarily.
