Hi,

Samuel suggested I introduce myself after I commented on issue #15137.

I worked at AMD for three years building GPU benchmark and profiling
tools for the graphics driver(UMD) team. Left a couple of years ago,
still interested in the Linux graphics stack. I'd like to contribute
to Mesa starting with RADV, since the driver-side debug and
measurement paths are closest to what I know.

I'm looking at the perf/debug tooling side of RADV as a contribution
area. Is there ongoing work in that space I should be aware of, or
areas that could use more hands?

Also, I understand I should assign issues before investigating. I
don't think my GitLab account has that permission yet =E2=80=94 should I ju=
st
comment on the issue for now?

Thanks,
Kingstom Chen
