The NVIDIA 595.44.03 driver for Linux and 595.92 for Windows is shipping today for supporting the prominent new VK_KHR_device_address_commands extension. VK_KHR_device_address_commands debuted with Vulkan 1.4.346 as a long-in-development extension worked on by a wide variety of different organizations.
As explained in that earlier article today, VK_KHR_device_address_commands is intended to address a current Vulkan API limitation that applications / game engines end up currently needing to pass both buffer handles and device addresses. Since Vulkan 1.2 with VK_KHR_buffer_device_address there is the ability to obtain device addresses for buffers, but lots of functionality still depends upon buffer objects rather than device addresses. With VK_KHR_device_address_commands, that gap has been addressed.
With this NVIDIA Vulkan developer beta driver, VK_KHR_device_address_commands is now supported. The new Vulkan beta driver also adds host image copy support for all depth/stencil image formats on the latest Blackwell GPUs. There is also support for stencil aspect copies in different configurations. Plus a few fixes too.
