Summary

  • allow forcing GLSL extension detection results when building the Vulkan backend and document the cache variables
  • relax AMD architecture detection so Polaris-class boards are classified as AMD_GCN when shader core properties report a 64-lane wavefront
  • document a Vulkan build recipe and runtime flags tuned for AMD GCN (GFX8/Polaris) GPUs

Testing

  • not run (Vulkan SDK/glslc unavailable in container)
