Interviewer: How many image formats do you want?
Vulkan: Yes!
Interviewer: How many letters do you need at most?
Vulkan: Yes (looking at VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_2_SAMPLED_IMAGE_YCBCR_CONVERSION_CHROMA_RECONSTRUCTION_EXPLICIT_FORCEABLE_BIT_KHR)
On a more serious note I finally started working on adding support for VkFormatFeatureFlagBits2 to the caps viewer and database. Not sure yet how to present that information in a nice-to-look-at way.
I have released a substantial update to my @vulkan#Vulkan GPU hardware database at https://vulkan.gpuinfo.org that fundamentally improves filtering. And I also reworked some SQL statements and upgraded the server to improve general performance.
I hope this makes the database (even) more useful to those developing with Vulkan.
It has been quite a while since the last release, so this version adds support for features and properties for a lot of recently added extensions (almost 20), including those from the Vulkan 2024 roadmap.
Also did a lot of changes under the hood to improve code quality and make it easier to add new features to the app.
Adds support for a slew of new extensions, updates the Vulkan profiles library to the latest version including 2023 profiles and adds a few minor fixes.
