[SOLVED] Is the 32 bit vulkan driver broken in Slackaware current?

adcdam · 12-16-2023, 08:43 PM

im getting

Code:

Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_surface'.
Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_xlib_surface'.
BInit - Unable to initialize Vulkan!

since Mesa 23.2. i tried Mesa 23.3.1 and same thing, work fine with mesa 23.1.8 and llvm 16
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/ste...x/issues/10127
games that are 64 bit and wine 64 bits work, games that are 32 doesn't work.
My gpu is rx6700xt.

Do the versions of vulkan match? Sometimes multilib lags a bit on updates, and if memory serves we did get a vulkan upgrade recently.

adcdam · 12-17-2023, 11:13 AM

i have mesa-23.3.1-x86_64-1,
mesa-compat32-23.3.1-x86_64-1compat32
llvm-17.0.6-x86_64-1 ,
llvm-compat32-17.0.6-x86_64-1compat32,
spirv-llvm-translator-17.0.0-x86_64-1 ,
vulkan-sdk-1.3.268.0-x86_64-1
vulkan-sdk-compat32-1.3.268.0-x86_64-1compat32
same thing the driver is broken at least for my gpu perhaps it need a patch or something.

it work fine with
mesa 23.1.8
llvm 16

OK...what happens when you try to run the 32-bit vkcube? (/usr/bin/32/vkcube)

adcdam · 12-17-2023, 11:17 AM

Code:

/usr/bin/32/vkcube
vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties failed to find the VK_KHR_surface extension.

Do you have a compatible Vulkan installable client driver (ICD) installed?
Please look at the Getting Started guide for additional information.

/usr/bin/vkcube
Selected GPU 0: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT (RADV NAVI22), type: DiscreteGpu

the 64 bit work fine, i can see the cube spinning.

the steam guys told me this:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/ste...x/issues/10127
Thanks, https://gist.github.com/adcdam/26e0d...e1-txt-L83-L97 confirms that 32 bit Vulkan is indeed broken on your system because the Vulkan loader isn't finding a suitable driver for your video card, but beyond that it's not clear why that's the case.

perhaps it need a patch? https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231215...gutronix.de/T/

I miss the compat32 version of spirv-llvm-translator in this list, it is needed by the 32bit vulkan driver.
Perhaps you have not run "slackpkg install multilib" for a while? Sometimes, new packages get added to the collection and spirv-llvm-translator-compat32 was added in october:

Code:

+--------------------------+
Fri Oct  6 08:55:55 UTC 2023
current/compat32-tools: added l/spirv-llvm-translator to massconvert32.sh
current/slackware64-compat32:  Refreshed the *compat32 packages.

adcdam · 12-17-2023, 02:25 PM

i added the package spirv-llvm-translator-compat32-17.0.0-x86_64-1compat32
and the result is the same as before, 32 bit games doesn't work

Code:

ls /var/log/packages | grep mesa
mesa-23.3.1-x86_64-1
mesa-compat32-23.3.1-x86_64-1compat32
❯ ls /var/log/packages | grep llvm

kernel-modules-6.6.7-x86_64-1

Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_surface'.
Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_xlib_surface'.
BInit - Unable to initialize Vulkan!

if i downgrade back to mesa 23.1.8 and llvm 16 all work fine.
with the packages below all work fine, steam, wine and the 32-bit vkcube
32-bit vkcube example

/usr/bin/32/vkcube

Anyone with the same problem?

garpu · 12-18-2023, 04:48 PM

I think cwizardzone is with AMD and does stuff with 32-bit gaming, WINE, etc? We'll see what Christmas/birthday brings this year.

Yes. I recall you made a post about this a few weeks ago and the problem hasn't resolved itself even with the November 24th upgrades to mulitlib.

You're not alone, but it is weird that it's affecting only 32-bit applications but I have no idea if it affects nVidia users? I'm also using an AMD GPU and CPU.

adcdam · 12-20-2023, 06:08 PM

Tommyc7 there is no problem with 32 bit vulkan drivers i was missing some multilib packages, sorry!!!!!!!!!
it got solved by slackpkg install multilib
Sorry Pat my apologies!!!!!

TommyC7 · 12-21-2023, 05:06 AM

Do you remember which packages you were missing?

Cheers.

Unfortunately for me it doesn't seem like any of those were the source of my problem as I have those packages installed but I appreciate your post nonetheless.
