Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

* pname:queueFlags contains flags indicating the capabilities of the
queues in this queue family.
* pname:queueCount is the unsigned integer count of queues in this
queue family.
* pname:timestampValidBits is the unsigned integer count of meaningful
bits in the timestamps written via fname:vkCmdWriteTimestamp. The valid
range for the count is 36..64 bits, or a value of 0, indicating no
support for timestamps. Bits outside the valid range are guaranteed to
be zeros.
* pname:minImageTransferGranularity is the minimum granularity
supported for image transfer operations on the queues in this queue
family.

* if ename:VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT is set, then the queues in this queue
family support graphics operations.
* if ename:VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT is set, then the queues in this queue
family support compute operations.
* if ename:VK_QUEUE_TRANSFER_BIT is set, then the queues in this queue
family support transfer operations.
* if ename:VK_QUEUE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set, then the queues in this
queue family support sparse memory management operations (see
<<sparsememory,Sparse Resources>>). If any of the sparse resource
features are enabled, then at least one queue family must: support this
bit.
If an implementation exposes any queue family that supports graphics
operations, at least one queue family of at least one physical device
exposed by the implementation must: support both graphics and compute
operations.
[NOTE]
.Note
====
All commands that are allowed on a queue that supports transfer operations
are also allowed on a queue that supports either graphics or compute
operations thus if the capabilities of a queue family include
ename:VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT or ename:VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT then
reporting the ename:VK_QUEUE_TRANSFER_BIT capability separately for that
queue family is optional:.

For further details see <<devsandqueues-queues,Queues>>.
The value returned in pname:minImageTransferGranularity has a unit of
compressed texel blocks for images having a block-compressed format, and a
unit of texels otherwise.
Possible values of pname:minImageTransferGranularity are:
* latexmath:[$(0,0,0)$] which indicates that only whole mip levels must:
be transferred using the image transfer operations on the corresponding
queues. In this case, the following restrictions apply to all offset and
extent parameters of image transfer operations:
** The pname:x, pname:y, and pname:z members of a slink:VkOffset3D
parameter must: always be zero.
** The pname:width, pname:height, and pname:depth members of a
slink:VkExtent3D parameter must: always match the width, height, and
depth of the image subresource corresponding to the parameter,
respectively.
* latexmath:[$(Ax, Ay, Az)$] where latexmath:[$Ax$], latexmath:[$Ay$],
and latexmath:[$Az$] are all integer powers of two. In this case the
following restrictions apply to all image transfer operations:
** pname:x, pname:y, and pname:z of a slink:VkOffset3D parameter must: be
integer multiples of latexmath:[$Ax$], latexmath:[$Ay$], and
latexmath:[$Az$], respectively.
** pname:width of a slink:VkExtent3D parameter must: be an integer
multiple of latexmath:[$Ax$], or else latexmath:[$(x + width)$] must:
equal the width of the image subresource corresponding to the
parameter.
** pname:height of a slink:VkExtent3D parameter must: be an integer
multiple of latexmath:[$Ay$], or else latexmath:[$(y + height)$] must:
equal the height of the image subresource corresponding to the
parameter.
** pname:depth of a slink:VkExtent3D parameter must: be an integer
multiple of latexmath:[$Az$], or else latexmath:[$(z + depth)$] must:
equal the depth of the image subresource corresponding to the
parameter.
** If the format of the image corresponding to the parameters is one of
the block-compressed formats then for the purposes of the above
calculations the granularity must: be scaled up by the compressed
texel block dimensions.
Queues supporting graphics and/or compute operations must: report
latexmath:[$(1,1,1)$] in pname:minImageTransferGranularity, meaning that
there are no additional restrictions on the granularity of image
transfer operations for these queues. Other queues supporting image
transfer operations are only required: to support whole mip level
transfers, thus pname:minImageTransferGranularity for
queues belonging to such queue families may: be latexmath:[$(0,0,0)$].
