Does anyone know how to monitor NVK driver?

Something like nvtop perhaps?

I don't have a Nvidia GPU, so I can't test it, maybe Mission Center works.

From their GitLab readme:

Monitor overall GPU usage, video encoder and decoder usage, memory usage and power consumption, powered by the popular NVTOP project
- That looks like a nice project. Though sadly didn't work for NVK. I'm assuming it would work with a proprietary driver since it's based on nvtop.
  
  Does nvk expose anything thru sysfs?
  Take a look at "/sys/class/drm/card*/device/"
Afaik there is no way to view usage for nouveau yet
- I see. I'm quite surprised with the current developments of NVK. It already has a better Wayland experience and runs mid-range games great. Though I'm going back to proprietary driver for now and would like to revisit NVK in the near future.
Mangohud, I'd assume.
- Not exactly what I want but still tried it. It shows my GPU as 0%. Is it perhaps it's set to Nvidia proprietary driver somehow? btop was showing GPU as well when I was using proprietary driver but now it doesn't show a GPU.
