*** linux 4.9 with KALLSYMS_ALL=y is required

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-lts49-kallsyms/

*** mesa-noglvnd is required

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mesa-noglvnd/ The mesa package in Arch now includes the glvnd libGL, which conflicts with the AMDGPU-PRO libGL. You'll need to replace mesa with mesa-noglvnd.

@GI_Jack I know. As of comment 2018-10-11 06:08, try to just drop that. I am now trying to make working gpu pasthrough configuration so I could easily test drivers in a virtual environment. If you are interested, please join. I have a problem of a secondary passthrough. See this: https://youtu.be/Zg3cJHJtNzg

binfmt-support missing dep

Yes, this package is out of date now. I just prepared it for further updates in a way that it won't clutter pkgbuild's diff with version upgrades. It was maintained by Corngood, he is not interested in this package anymore, so now I got maintaining of it. The plan is the following: - Return Travis ci back - Explore deb packages which are in amd's archive - Repack them to pkgbuild using gen-pkgbuild.py If you are interested, I invite you to join.

the package is out date,

will this work with GCN 1 cards?

Regarding dependency "binfmt-support", it was deleted on 2/28/2018. See https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-requests/2018-February/022626.html

This is because systemd-binfmt replaces its functionality.

Previous comments saying they couldn't find "binfmt-support" on the AUR, but with a link that got to its files will no longer work. I asked about how those files were still accessible but searching for "binfmt-support" didn't find anything at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=241075 and those files were deleted. If that messes anything up, sorry about that, wasn't my intention.

That said, I'm assuming the dependency of "binfmt-support" can just be removed, since "systemd" is in "base". I haven't tried it, and probably won't be, because downgrading kernels is a no-go for me.

If I'm right, perhaps a 17.40.492261-2 could be released, removing it as the only change.

@ illogical123 - I could be wrong, but if I'm understanding this right, isn't AMDVLK really only going to supersede AMDGPU-PRO-VULKAN, not all of AMDGPU-PRO? So, AMDGPU, mesa-libgl, opencl-mesa, and xf86-video-amdgpu would still be used? To me, if that's the case, I can't call AMDGPU-PRO dead like some of those links are. (For Vulkan gaming specifically, sure, perhaps, and Vulkan is only going to get more and more prevalent.)

For those eagerly waiting for a never version of AMDGPU-PRO:

"... the current impression from AMD is that AMDVLK is intended to supersede AMDGPU-PRO for Vulkan gaming on Linux" https://medium.com/@mdiluz/whats-the-deal-with-amdvlk-3ea21d5656ba

It's work for PS4 PRO (CUH 7016B)?

I've asked Corngood and he would like to handle the release process when someone makes a PR or might hand over the package to somebody who would like to adopt it.
