The release introduces a fixed-function 3D graphics pipeline with a rasterizer and texture units, expanding beyond GPGPU compute. New features include tensor core structured sparsity, warp group-level matrix multiplication, a hardware kernel scheduler, a command processor architecture, async barriers, a Mesa/Lavapipe Vulkan back-end (vortexpipe), and HIP support via chipStar. The design supports RTL simulation and AMD-Xilinx or Altera FPGAs. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
