Public bug reported: [Availability]
vulkaninfo tool is present up to Bionic in package vulkan-utils, as part of vulkan source package: <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vulkan> in updates pocket <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vulkan/1.1.70+dfsg1-1ubuntu0.18.04.1> : amd64 arm64 armhf i386 ppc64el s390x The package was in sync until it had to be changed to accomodate the MIR requirements (delta contains now dep8 tests and a patch the tests). Package with test is here: https://code.launchpad.net/~mirespace/ubuntu/+source/vulkan/+git/vulkan (ppa : https://launchpad.net/~mirespace/+archive/ubuntu/bionic-vulkan-adding-dep8-tests). [Rationale] This tool is included in our GKE images for Bionic and the package needs to be on main for this reason. Because the source package changes for the needed tool to be MIR -vulkaninfo-, here is presented this MIR for vulkaninfo in Bionic and the submitted MIR for vulkan-tools is [5] for the rest of the Ubuntu series. [Security] No CVEs found. [Quality assurance] -> Bugs No active bugs in launchpad. Debian: - https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/ pkgreport.cgi?include=tags%3Apatch&exclude=tags%3Apending&pend- exc=done&repeatmerged=no&src=vulkan : The only one has a patch and is a request for porting to non-linux systems. Upstream: https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan- LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues. They have 20 bugs open (517 closed), but it's a read-only report and many of these were moved or/and fixed in the splitting of repositories that they did from this (https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Tools/, https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-ValidationLayers, https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Loader). -> Contents root@bionic:~# apt-file list vulkan-utils vulkan-utils: /usr/bin/vulkan-smoketest vulkan-utils: /usr/bin/vulkaninfo vulkan-utils: /usr/share/doc/vulkan-utils/changelog.Debian.gz vulkan-utils: /usr/share/doc/vulkan-utils/copyright vulkan-utils: /usr/share/man/man1/vulkan-smoketest.1.gz vulkan-utils: /usr/share/man/man1/vulkaninfo.1.gz -> Installation: No debconf questions arise. root@bionic:~# apt install vulkan-utils [...] The following additional packages will be installed: libvulkan1 The following NEW packages will be installed: libvulkan1 vulkan-utils Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Get:1 <http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu> bionic-updates/universe amd64 libvulkan1 amd64 1.1.70+dfsg1-1ubuntu0.18.04.1 [93.4 kB] Get:2 <http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu> bionic-updates/universe amd64 vulkan-utils amd64 1.1.70+dfsg1-1ubuntu0.18.04.1 [88.7 kB] As result, we see libvulkan1 needs also to be imported from universe (It's already in Focal main), but it's from the same source package as vulkan-utils (vulkan). → Building: It builds ok. vulkan package was renamed to vulkan-tools, so in Debian and in upstream are not maintained under this form anymore. It uses a debian/watch file. Although the package scans HW (as its target functionality is to show vulkan information related to gpu) and in that sense also "deals with exotic HW", it incorporates a mocked ICD driver that we used e. g. for testing. -> Tests: They are now included alongside a patch needed for json output: [...] VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_DEPTH_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT_BIT VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_BLIT_SRC_BIT VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_BLIT_DST_BIT VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_LINEAR_BIT VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_CUBIC_BIT_IMG VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT_KHR VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_TRANSFER_DST_BIT_KHR Checking GPU0 is virtual in text output deviceType = VIRTUAL_GPU Checking GPU0 is mocked in json output 'DISPLAY' environment variable not set... skipping surface info "Vulkan Mock Device" Checking GPU0 virtual and mocked in html output 'DISPLAY' environment variable not set... skipping surface info autopkgtest [12:51:12]: test check-sections: -----------------------] autopkgtest [12:51:12]: test check-sections: - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - -check-sections PASS autopkgtest [12:51:13]: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ summary check-sections PASS -> Lintian executions: ❯ lintian --pedantic -I --show-overrides E: libvulkan-dev: missing-dependency-on-libc needed by usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so and 5 others E: libvulkan-dev: package-must-activate-ldconfig-trigger usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_utils.so W: libvulkan-dev: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libVkLayer-core-validation libVkLayer-object-tracker libVkLayer-parameter-validation libVkLayer-threading libVkLayer-unique-objects libVkLayer-utils W: libvulkan-dev: shlib-without-versioned-soname usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so libVkLayer_core_validation.so W: libvulkan-dev: shlib-without-versioned-soname usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_object_tracker.so libVkLayer_object_tracker.so W: libvulkan-dev: shlib-without-versioned-soname usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_parameter_validation.so libVkLayer_parameter_validation.so W: libvulkan-dev: shlib-without-versioned-soname ... use --no-tag-display-limit to see all (or pipe to a file/ program) I: vulkan-utils: extended-description-is-probably-too-short I: libvulkan-dev: hardening-no-bindnow usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so I: libvulkan-dev: hardening-no-bindnow usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_object_tracker.so I: libvulkan-dev: hardening-no-bindnow usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_parameter_validation.so I: libvulkan-dev: hardening-no-bindnow ... use --no-tag-display-limit to see all (or pipe to a file/program) I: libvulkan1: hardening-no-bindnow usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvulkan.so.1.1.70 I: libvulkan-dev: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so I: libvulkan-dev: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_object_tracker.so I: libvulkan-dev: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_parameter_validation.so I: libvulkan-dev: no-symbols-control-file ... use --no-tag-display-limit to see all (or pipe to a file/ program) I: libvulkan1: no-symbols-control-file usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvulkan.so.1.1.70 I: libvulkan-dev: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/vulkan/implicit_layer.d/ I: libvulkan-dev: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so Attemped Attempted I: libvulkan-dev: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_core_validation.so truely truly I: libvulkan-dev: spelling-error-in-binary usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libVkLayer_parameter_validation.so Attemped Attempted Errors appears in libvulkan-dev (not libvulkan1 or vulkan- utils)... anyway, looking into this at the moment if submission. [Dependencies] All dependencies are in main or provided by the package itself, as seen in Installation above. [Standards compliance] dh style simple rules plus use of gentarball, compat 9. [Maintenance] It's a simple command tool application that is not maintained in Debian as vulkan because the package has been renamed to vulkan-tools. Server team is going to sign up for Ubuntu. [Background information] vulkaninfo outputs various types of Vulkan information such as: -device properties of identified GPUs -Vulkan extensions supported by each GPU -recognized layers -supported image formats and format properties. Vulkan is a next generation graphics and compute API that provides high-efficiency, cross-platform access to modern GPUs. vulkan source package [1] seems to be renamed to [2] (it is also not present in the removals file [3]). Upstream [4] is now Read-only, with recommendations to use the new repositories (vulkan-tools among others, that was also MIR submitted: because the source package changes for the needed tool to be MIR -vulkaninfo-, here is presented this MIR and here is the MIR for vulkan-tools [5]).
