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.

Description
-----------
Each region in pname:pRegions is copied from the source image to the same
region of the destination image. pname:srcImage and pname:dstImage can: be
the same image or alias the same memory.
Copies are done layer by layer starting with pname:baseArrayLayer member of
pname:srcSubresource for the source and pname:dstSubresource for the
destination. pname:layerCount layers are copied to the destination image.
[[copies-images-format-compatibility]]
The formats of pname:srcImage and pname:dstImage must: be compatible.
Formats are considered compatible if their texel size in bytes is the same
between both formats. For example, ename:VK_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM is
compatible with ename:VK_FORMAT_R32_UINT because both texels are 4
bytes in size. Depth/stencil formats must: match exactly.
fname:vkCmdCopyImage allows copying between size-compatible compressed
and uncompressed internal formats. Formats are size-compatible if the texel
size of the uncompressed format is equal to the compressed texel block size in
bytes of the compressed format. Such a copy does not perform on-the-fly
compression or decompression. When copying from an uncompressed format to a
compressed format, each texel of uncompressed data of the source image is
copied as a raw value to the corresponding compressed texel block of the
destination image. When copying from a compressed format to an uncompressed
format, each compressed texel block of the source image is copied as a raw
value to the corresponding texel of uncompressed data in the destination
image. Thus, for example, it is legal to copy between a 128-bit uncompressed
format and a compressed format which has a 128-bit sized compressed texel
block representing 4x4 texels (using 8 bits per texel), or between a 64-bit
uncompressed format and a compressed format which has a 64-bit sized
compressed texel block representing 4x4 texels (using 4 bits per texel).
When copying between compressed and uncompressed formats the pname:extent
members represent the texel dimensions of the source image and not the
destination. When copying from a compressed image to an uncompressed image
the image texel dimensions written to the uncompressed image will be source
extent divided by the compressed texel block dimensions. When copying from an
uncompressed image to a compressed image the image texel dimensions written
to the compressed image will be the source extent multiplied by the
compressed texel block dimensions. In both cases the number of bytes read and
the number of bytes written will be identical.
Copying to or from block-compressed images is typically done in multiples of
the compressed texel block. For this reason the pname:extent must: be a
multiple of the compressed texel block dimension. There is one exception to
this rule which is required: to handle compressed images created with
dimensions that are not a multiple of the compressed texel block dimensions.
If the pname:srcImage is compressed and if pname:extent.width is not a
multiple of the compressed texel block width then (pname:extent.width +
pname:srcOffset.x) must: equal the image subresource width, if
pname:extent.height is not a multiple of the compressed texel block height
then (pname:extent.height + pname:srcOffset.y) must: equal the image
subresource height and if pname:extent.depth is not a multiple of the
compressed texel block depth then (pname:extent.depth + pname:srcOffset.z)
must: equal the image subresource depth. Similarly, if the pname:dstImage is
compressed and if pname:extent.width is not a multiple of the compressed
texel block width then (pname:extent.width + pname:dstOffset.x) must: equal
the image subresource width, if pname:extent.height is not a multiple of the
compressed texel block height then (pname:extent.height + pname:dstOffset.y)
must: equal the image subresource height and if pname:extent.depth is not a
multiple of the compressed texel block depth then (pname:extent.depth +
pname:dstOffset.z) must: equal the image subresource depth. This allows the
last compressed texel block of the image in each non-multiple dimension to
be included as a source or destination of the copy.
fname:vkCmdCopyImage can: be used to copy image data between multisample
images, but both images must: have the same number of samples.
