My familiarity with exactly how Mesa integrates open source drivers like
RADV, Mesa=E2=80=99s Vulkan driver for AMD, is minmal, but there is excelle=
nt
documentation here:
https://docs.mesa3d.org/drivers/radv.html

Depending on what you need to do, you might not need to build a debuggable
version of that driver and can instead rely on either logging from the RADV
driver by setting environment variables, or using the validation layers
from LunarG=E2=80=99s Vulkan SDK.

I wouldn=E2=80=99t recommend rebuilding the main Vulkan library, unless you=
 want to
get into the guts of the loader itself.
