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.

fname:vkCmdDrawIndirect behaves similarly to flink:vkCmdDraw except that the
|
|
|
|
parameters are read by the device from a buffer during execution.
|
|
|
|
pname:drawCount draws are executed by the command, with parameters taken
|
|
|
|
from pname:buffer starting at pname:offset and increasing by pname:stride
|
|
|
|
bytes for each successive draw. The parameters of each draw are encoded in
|
|
|
|
an array of slink:VkDrawIndirectCommand structures. If pname:drawCount is
|
|
|
|
less than or equal to one, pname:stride is ignored.

Change log for July 15, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.21 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 21 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Clarify how <<features-supported-sample-counts,sample count queries>>
relate to the limits in slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits. (public issue
185).
* Clarify in the <<interfaces-iointerfaces,Shader Input and Output
Interfaces>> section that shader output variables have undefined values
until the shader writes to them (public issue 240).
* Specify the implicit value of image parameters that cannot be set in
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfo::pname:flags, pname:imageType,
pname:mipLevels, pname:samples, pname:tiling, and pname:initialLayout
(public issue 243).
* Make use of code:NULL and code:VK_NULL_HANDLE consistent in the
VK_KHR_swapchain extension (public issue 276).
Internal Issues:
* Clarify that presenting an image to a display surface swapchain applies
the display surface's mode, and that destroying a display surface
swapchain may reset the display's mode, in the VK_KHR_display_swapchain
extension (internal issue 247).
* Better describe what a slink:VkSurfaceKHR is, and that creating one does
not set a mode, in the VK_KHR_display extension. This is a round-about
way of pointing out that mode setting is not covered by the extension,
but rather is performed as a side effect of presentation (internal issue
247).
* Add more valid usage statements to flink:vkQueuePresentKHR command when
the VK_KHR_display_swapchain extension is present (internal issue
247).
* Add more includes to the VK_KHR_swapchain extension to better document
interactions with VK_KHR_display_swapchain (internal issue 247).
* Clarify restrictions on location aliasing in the
<<fxvertex,Fixed-Function Vertex Processing>> section (internal issue
370).
* Add mathematical description of blitting to flink:vkCmdBlitImage, and
link it to the <<textures,Image Operations>> chapter. Use mathematical
notation for ranges of texel coordinates in the <<textures,Image
Operations>> chapter. Fixed miscellaneous validity statements for
flink:vkCmdBlit and slink:VkImageBlit (internal issue 382).
Other Commits:
* Added a valid usage rule to flink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo that the
ename:VK_PRIMITIVE_TOPOLOGY_PATCH_LIST topology must only be used when
tessellation shaders are used.
* Expand the style guide into a formal "Procedures and Conventions"
document. Add a API Naming Conventions section, move most of the API
Specification Appendix C (Layers and Extensions) content into the new
document, and define the resulting procedures as mandatory (where
relevant). This more clearly separates use vs. specification of Vulkan
APIs.
* Update vk_platform.h to handle 32-bit ARMv8 binaries.
* Various minor cleanups to the Makefile and build process.
