[Question] Nvidia Drivers Required for Kernel Math Functions? #710

Hello all,

Codon seems like such a cool project! I was looking through the documentation and saw that you use libdevice for math functions on the GPU. Is this an absolute requirement to run GPU kernels with math functions at present?

I have an nvida and an amd gpu but I prefer to use open source drivers (NVK[1], ROCm, and Mesa OpenCL/Zink[2]).

Additionally I wanted to ask if there are any plans/openness to allow OpenCL/Open Drivers/Other Alternatives (maybe Vulkan compute shaders?) implementation?

Thanks!
