# Cooperative Matrix Configuration Inspector
#
# vulkaninfo only reports the coopmat *feature* flag, never the per-config
# list. The full set of supported tile shapes / data types / scopes is
# returned exclusively by vkGetPhysicalDeviceCooperativeMatrixPropertiesKHR.
#
# This script writes a tiny standalone C probe, compiles it against the
# system Vulkan loader (no Vulkan SDK required, no ggmlR rebuild), runs it
# and presents the result as a data.frame.
#
# Run: Rscript inst/examples/coopmat_configs.R
#
# Answers: does this driver expose coopmat tile shapes beyond 16x16x16,
# BF16/FP8/INT8 variants, or a WORKGROUP (multi-subgroup) scope?
