Does AMD use a statically linked OpenGL?
- holowoodman 10mo agoAMD uses the dynamically linked system libGL.so, usually Mesa.
- direwolf20 10mo agoSo you still need dynamic linking to load the right driver for your graphics card.
- holowoodman 10mo agoMost stuff like that uses some kind of "icd" mechanism that does 'dlopen' on the vendor-specific parts of the library. Afaik neither OpenGL nor Vulkan nor OpenCL are usable without at least dlopen, if not full dynamic linking.
