AMD Polaris and Vega GPUs only to receive critical updates AMD is sunsetting its Polaris and Vega support on Windows. The company will only provide critical security patches. It has been long speculated that AMD has already abandoned the Vega and Polaris architectures, but the company has now confirmed that this is indeed the case. […]
Stupid question: does AMD contribute to RADV and mesa? As in, are they the main contributors to the amd drivers in Linux? I assume that they are at least significant contributors? For situations like this where support is dropped by AMD, does that mean that they will still patch card specific issues, or do other contributors take care of that?
(I know the drivers aren’t necessarily card specific overall, but what happens if a specific unsupported card has an issue with a new driver?)
