Intel developers are planning to merge their branched version of Mesa with their Vulkan graphics driver into mainline Mesa in just a matter of days.

Since Intel published their open-source Vulkan Linux driver back on launch day, it’s been in a Mesa Git branch. However, now that the Intel Vulkan driver is getting into good shape and the changes against mainline Mesa are getting there too, the Open-Source Technology Center developers are planning for the merge to happen soon.
