Find more information on the Vulkan 1.1 specification and associated tests and tools at Khronos’s Vulkan Resource Page. Khronos will also release full Vulkan 1.1 conformance tests into open source and AMD, Arm, Imagination, Intel Corporation, NVIDIA and Qualcomm have implemented conformant Vulkan 1.1 drivers.

Version 1.1 expands Vulkan’s core functionality with developer-requested features, such as subgroup operations, while integrating a wide range of proven extensions from Vulkan 1.0.

Vulkan ecosystem momentum continues to grow with improved developer tools, wide industry adoption, and new specification for evolved functionality and performanceīeaverton, OR – Ma– The Khronos™ Group, an open consortium of leading hardware and software companies creating advanced acceleration standards, announces the release of the Vulkan® 1.1 and SPIR-V™ 1.3 specifications.

Vulkan 1.1 out today with multi-GPU support, better DirectX compatibility.

Vulkan 1.1 Specification Released: Open-source Tools, SDKs, and Launch Driver Support.

SPIR-V intermediate language adds the support of subgroup operations and enables enhanced compiler optimizations.Īlongside the release of Vulkan 1.1, a new Vulkan SDK has been released by LunarG and NVIDIA has published a new Vulkan driver that brings Vulkan 1.1 support. SPIR-V (cross-API intermediate language for natively representing parallel compute and graphics) has not been forgotten because the version 1.3 of the specifications has been released as well. Many existing Vulkan extensions are now part of the Vulkan 1.1 core: Vulkan 1.1 (the exact version is 1.1.70) adds the support of subgroup operations, protected memory and a new command to enumerate instance version (vkEnumerateInstanceVersion). Two years after the first version, the Khronos Group has released the second big iteration of Vulkan specifications.
