Mesa 17.0.6 Released with AMD Polaris 12 GPU Support for Radeon Vulkan Driver

Containing a total of 55 changes, which include both new functionality and fixes for recently discovered bugs, we can say that Mesa 17.0.6 is a hefty maintenance update that all users of the Mesa 17.0 3D Graphics Library series should install, that, of course, if they didn’t already upgrade to the newer Mesa 17.1 stable branch. The main highlight of the Mesa 17.0.6 release is Polaris 12 support for the Radeon RADV Vulkan driver, along with better Polaris 12 support for the RadeonSI graphics driver, which received several improvements for Volcanic Islands (VI) and Southern Islands (SI) series of AMD Radeon GPUs.
