Native DirectX 12 on Linux — First NVIDIA GPU Compute Milestone

I'm developing an experimental native Direct3D 12 implementation for Linux, with the long-term goal of supporting NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel through a common GPU adaptation layer — without Vulkan.

Today, I've reached an important milestone:

A NAK-compiled compute shader successfully executed on an RTX 4090 using NVIDIA's official 615.78.08 driver — without Nouveau or Vulkan.

Verified results:

• 1024/1024 computed values correct.
• Full 32 KiB readback verified.
• GPU memory allocation, channel creation, command submission, synchronization, and cleanup successful.
• No new kernel errors or GPU resets observed.

This is an early compute milestone, not a complete Direct3D 12 implementation. Frontend integration and independent review are still ahead.

The project is intended to be open source, with a vendor-independent architecture.

One step closer to native DirectX 12 on Linux. 🦾
