In addition to the issues raised by Jason, radv isn't the only Vulkan
driver for AMD GPUs.


I don't think Andres patch should be made jump through hoops for a driver
that isn't open source. AMD are free to provide patches to support this use
case but asking anyone outside AMD to care for a piece of software that
isn't
open source, isn't a very nice thing to do.

>From reading Jason's requests it does look like just leave it to the
drivers to
sort out is the best option, and for radeonsi/radv we could go with a static
string as we at least share addrlib in this world. Beyond that I think AMD
would
need to propose later patch for interop with the pro driver.

Dave.
