I'm sorry for being not explicit. It is not deterministic if the layer includes other ICD implementations (meta-qcom, meta-freescale, etc.) You can point out that it's the layer's reposnsibility to handle providers in this case. However I think that having a predefined default would be benefitable (and at least would force those layers to override those providers instead of depending on the undefined behaviour). In particular, I stumbled upon this in meta-qcom when the package manager (rpm) was happily selecting the Adreno Vulkan ICD just because it ended up being the first one. > Ideally we shouldn't need to set RPROVIDERS, they're a source of issues > and I'd prefer not to have them at all... -- With best wishes Dmitry
