Vulkan 1.1.110 Released  will RX 480 support the following extensions anytime soon?

VK_EXT_fragment_shader_interlock - Featured in Vulkan 1.1.110

GL_ARB_fragment_shader_interlock - Part of OpenGL 4.5

i'm a bit disappointed and curious as to why Nvidia and Intel has support for this but AMD doesnt.

Our OpenGL & Vulkan forum seems to be better place to ask this query, so I'm moving it there.

Thanks.

Hi onsolight‌, Thanks for your feedback, It looked like we didn't support this ext, we will take it into consideration. Thanks!

[onsolight]

Is Polaris even capable if it? Im seeing allot say only Vega supports the feature.

[dorisyan]

I haven't got the exact message until now

[onsolight]

Any news on this? looks like Nvidia already has support for it.

onsolight, could you check with gl extension viewer if your 480 supports

GL_INTEL_fragment_shader_ordering

it reports the R VII does have support 

[onsolight]

nope nothing here

[gharland]

if the hardware doesn't support it, maybe they can emulate it in software.  Hopefully it would only cause a slowdown in the event of concurrent writes to the same pixel, which may only be a small proportion of fs invocations.  Better to lose a few fps than not be able to run at all.  Fingers crossed.
