Change log for March 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.6 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 6 for this
update.
Github Issues:
* Define 'invocation group' for compute and graphics shaders. Cleanup
definition and use of 'workgroup', and add glossary entries (public
issue 1).
* Various minor editorial fixes (public issue 33).
* Clarify locations for block members in the
<<interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>>
section (public issue 45).
* Editorial fixes for <<commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer
Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59).
* Clarify behavior of depth test in the <<fragops-depth,Depth
Test>> section (public issues 80, 81).
* Remove discussion of return codes from
flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties and
flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements, which don't return values
(public issue 82).
* Allow flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect and flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect
pname:drawCount of 0, as well as 1, when the multiDrawIndirect
feature is not supported (public issue 88).
* Remove confusing wording in the <<features-limits,Limits>>
section describing the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits
pname:minTexelBufferOffsetAlignment,
pname:minUniformBufferOffsetAlignment, and
pname:minStorageBufferOffsetAlignment members as both minimums and
maximums (public issue 91).
* Clarified that only the RGB components should be affected in places
where sRGB is referred to in the spec, such as ASTC formats. Minor
re-wording to avoid "color space" when actively incorrect, now that
we refer to the Data Format Spec which actually makes a distinction
between color space and transfer function (public issue 94).
* Treat pname:pPropertyCount == 0 consistently in
flink:vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties (public issue 99)
* Cleanup minor editorial issues in chapters 14-17 (public issue 100).
* Clarify definition of flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties
and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 101).
* Define the flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties pname:pLayerName
parameter to be a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string (public
issue 101).
* Rearrange "Missing information" references in mandatory format
tables (public issue 101).
* Clarify that the enumerated extensions returned by
flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties will only include
extensions provided by the platform or extensions implemented in
implicitly enabled layers (public issue 101).
* Miscellaneous editorial fixes. Include the Vulkan spec patch number
in the PDF title. Fix label on <<fig-non-strict-lines,Non
strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in
tables in the <<features-required-format-support,Required
Format Support>> section. Don't require FQDNs used as layer names be
encoded in lower case if not possible, in the
<<extensions-naming-conventions, Extension and Layer Naming
Conventions>> section (public issues 101, 119, 121).
Internal Issues:
* Fixed excessive spacing in tables in XHTML (internal issue 18).
* Clarify that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT
applies to secondary command buffers. Previously spec only referred
to the members of pname:pCommandBuffers being affected by this bit.
Added a separate slink:VkSubmitInfo Valid Usage restriction
specifying that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT
also applies to any secondary command buffers that are recorded into
the primary command buffers in pname:pCommandBuffers (internal issue
106).
* Clarify that slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo::pname:pEnabledFeatures can be
NULL (internal issue 117).
* Remove "the value of" where it is redundant (e.g. speaking of an API
parameter, struct member, or SPIR-V variable, but not when speaking
of color components) (internal issue 175).
* Forced patch version to always be 0 in the header. Add a
"VK_API_VERSION_<major>_<minor>" macro for people to use to do the
right thing. Add a VK_HEADER_VERSION which captures the header
release number independent of the spec patch number (internal issue
176).
* Correct description of
slink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo::pname:pName to "a pointer to
a null-terminated UTF-8 string" (internal issue #197).
Other Commits:
* Updated DataFormat spec reference to the new date for revision 5 of
that spec.
* Fixed KEEP option (to retain LaTeX intermediate files) in the
Makefile to be included when edited there, as well as set on the
command line.
* Reserve and add "VK_IMG_filter_cubic" to the registry, and implement
script functionality to add and remove validity from existing
functions. Includes schema and readme changes.
* Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl so push_constants do not have descriptor
sets.

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.

Change log for September 30, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.29 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 29 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Remove redundant constraint on
slink:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo::pname:queryFlags (public issue
224).
* Fix typo and remove link in Note in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (public issue 359).
* Fix erroneous validation statement for the pname:layout member of
slink:VkComputePipelineCreateInfo (public issue 362).
Internal Issues:
* Restore long figure captions using asciidoc sidebar blocks, due to
restrictions of asciidoc syntax (internal issue 101).
* Replace most latexmath equations with comparable markup in straight
asciidoc, which significantly improves time required to fully load and
process the HTML forms of the Specification. There are known minor font
and alignment inconsistencies with MathJax and PDF rendering of
latexmath equations. Please do not file github issues about these. We
are aware of the inconsistencies and will make refinements over time,
while the performance improvements are compelling in at least some major
browsers (internal issue 313).
* Move handcoded validity statements from +vk.xml+ into the Specification
body, easing work in the single-branch model. Specify the distinction
between these explicit statements, and the implicit validity statements
inferred from vk.xml. Validity statements now appear in two blocks for
each command and structure - handcoded "Valid Usage" and the implicit
"Valid Usage (Implicit)" (internal issue 392).
* Add the +returnedonly="false"+ attribute to WSI output structures,
removing incorrectly generated implicit validity statements for
slink:VkDisplayPropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlanePropertiesKHR,
slink:VkDisplayModePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR,
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, and slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures
(internal issue 486).
* Update slink:VkImageLayout to require the
ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT be set for sampled depth/stencil images
(internal issue 487).
* Use an explicit format specifier string for the date command invocation
in the +Makefile+ instead of the shorthand -R option, which doesn't work
on BSD and MaxOS X date commands (internal issue 500).
Other Issues:
* Use the terms ``allocation scope'' and ``extension scope'' instead of
just ``scope'', and add them to the glossary.

Change log for September 23, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.28 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 28 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Minor spelling and typography cleanup, add definitions of
ename:VK_FALSE and ename:VK_TRUE as just what their names say
(public issues 220, 318, 325, 365; internal issues 451, 496)
* Clarify that the pname:maxDescriptorSet limits in the
<<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> table are n *
maxPerStage limit (where n=number of supported stages) (public issue
254).
* Minor cleanup to <<boilerplate-platform-macros,Platform-Specific
Macro Definitions>> appendix (public issue 314).
* Add valid usage statement to slink:VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo
disallowing multiple push constant ranges for the same shader stage
(public issue 340).
* Clarify the elink:VkSharingMode description of what executing the
"same" barriers means in case of ownership transfer (public issue
347).
* Rename copyright.txt and add COPYING.md to try and reduce confusion
about applicable copyrights (public issue 350).
* Extend the table in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window System-Specific
Header Control>> section to describe the external headers included when
each etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macro is defined (public issue 376).
Internal Issues:
* Add "Revision History" to the PDF outputs following the table of
contents, to match HTML outputs (internal issue 43).
* Clarified that flink:vkMapMemory may fail due to virtual address
space limitations (internal issue 346).
* Add +refBody+ comment markup for ref page autoextraction when required
(internal issue 400).
* Document proper use of "mipmap" and "mip" in the style guide API
naming rules, matching the spelling rules (internal issue 471).
* Tweak the <<extensions,Layers and Extensions>> appendix to note that
the Specification may be built with arbitrary combinations of
extensions (internal issue 483).
* Remove incorrect statement allowing
slink:VkClearAttachment::pname:colorAttachment to be >=
slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:colorAttachmentCount (internal
issue 488).
* The <<features-limits-viewportboundsrange,viewportBoundsRange>> is
expressed in terms of the pname:maxViewportDimensions but this is
actually two values. Clarify that it's based on the larger of the two
(if they differ) (internal issue 499).
Other Issues:
* Reflowed text of the entire spec using the 'reflow' Makefile gater,
to (hopefully) reduce future internal git churn as edits are made
and extensions added in return for one-time pain. This has no
perceptible change on the spec outputs but considerable changes on
the asciidoc source (internal issue 367).

are aware of the inconsistencies and will make refinements over time,
while the performance improvements are compelling in at least some major
browsers (internal issue 313).
* Move handcoded validity statements from +vk.xml+ into the Specification
body, easing work in the single-branch model. Specify the distinction
between these explicit statements, and the implicit validity statements
inferred from vk.xml. Validity statements now appear in two blocks for
each command and structure - handcoded "Valid Usage" and the implicit
"Valid Usage (Implicit)" (internal issue 392).
* Add the +returnedonly="false"+ attribute to WSI output structures,
removing incorrectly generated implicit validity statements for
slink:VkDisplayPropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlanePropertiesKHR,
slink:VkDisplayModePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR,
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, and slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures
(internal issue 486).
* Update slink:VkImageLayout to require the
ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT be set for sampled depth/stencil images
(internal issue 487).
* Use an explicit format specifier string for the date command invocation
in the +Makefile+ instead of the shorthand -R option, which doesn't work
on BSD and MaxOS X date commands (internal issue 500).
Other Issues:
* Use the terms ``allocation scope'' and ``extension scope'' instead of
just ``scope'', and add them to the glossary.

Change log for November 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.35 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 35 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Document in the <<memory-device-hostaccess,Host Access>> section that
mapping and unmapping does not invalidate or flush the mapped memory
(public issues 27, 126).
* Redefine the entire <<synchronization>> chapter in terms of consistent
and well defined terminology, that's called out at the start of the
chapter. This terminology is applied equally to all synchronization
types, including subpass dependencies, submissions, and much of the
implicit ordering stuff dotted around the spec. Key terms are laid out
in the <<synchronization-dependencies,Execution and Memory
Dependencies>> section at the top of the rewritten chapter (public
issues 128, 131, 132, 217, 299, 300, 302, 306, 322, 346, 347, 371, 407).
* Specify order of submission for batches in the
<<vkQueueSubmit,vkQueueSubmit>> and
<<vkQueueBindSparse,vkQueueBindSparse>> commands (public issue 371).
* Add valid usage statements to each of the WSI extension sections
indicating that the WSI-specific structure parameters must be valid, and
remove automatically generated valid usage statements now covered by the
manual sections (public issue 383).
* Clarify render pass compatibility for flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands (public
issue 390).
Internal Issues:
* Update +vk.xml+ to make previously explicit valid usage statements for
<<vkDebugReportMessageEXT,vkDebugReportMessageEXT>> implicit instead
(internal issue 553).
* Add valid usage statement for slink:VkCreateImageInfo preventing
creation of 1D sparse images (internal issue 573).
* Fix Python scripts to always read/write files in utf-8 encoding, and a
logic error in reflib.py which could cause a fatal error for
malstructured asciidoc (internal issues 578, 586).

Change log for September 23, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.28 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 28 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Minor spelling and typography cleanup, add definitions of
ename:VK_FALSE and ename:VK_TRUE as just what their names say
(public issues 220, 318, 325, 365; internal issues 451, 496)
* Clarify that the pname:maxDescriptorSet limits in the
<<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> table are n *
maxPerStage limit (where n=number of supported stages) (public issue
254).
* Minor cleanup to <<boilerplate-platform-macros,Platform-Specific
Macro Definitions>> appendix (public issue 314).
* Add valid usage statement to slink:VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo
disallowing multiple push constant ranges for the same shader stage
(public issue 340).
* Clarify the elink:VkSharingMode description of what executing the
"same" barriers means in case of ownership transfer (public issue
347).
* Rename copyright.txt and add COPYING.md to try and reduce confusion
about applicable copyrights (public issue 350).
* Extend the table in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window System-Specific
Header Control>> section to describe the external headers included when
each etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macro is defined (public issue 376).
Internal Issues:
* Add "Revision History" to the PDF outputs following the table of
contents, to match HTML outputs (internal issue 43).
* Clarified that flink:vkMapMemory may fail due to virtual address
space limitations (internal issue 346).
* Add +refBody+ comment markup for ref page autoextraction when required
(internal issue 400).
* Document proper use of "mipmap" and "mip" in the style guide API
naming rules, matching the spelling rules (internal issue 471).
* Tweak the <<extensions,Layers and Extensions>> appendix to note that
the Specification may be built with arbitrary combinations of
extensions (internal issue 483).
* Remove incorrect statement allowing
slink:VkClearAttachment::pname:colorAttachment to be >=
slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:colorAttachmentCount (internal
issue 488).
* The <<features-limits-viewportboundsrange,viewportBoundsRange>> is
expressed in terms of the pname:maxViewportDimensions but this is
actually two values. Clarify that it's based on the larger of the two
(if they differ) (internal issue 499).
Other Issues:
* Reflowed text of the entire spec using the 'reflow' Makefile gater,
to (hopefully) reduce future internal git churn as edits are made
and extensions added in return for one-time pain. This has no
perceptible change on the spec outputs but considerable changes on
the asciidoc source (internal issue 367).

Change log for September 6, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.26 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 26 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Bring sample code in the +VK_KHR_surface+ and +VK_KHR_swapchain+
extension summary appendices up to date, and note they will be replaced
with pointers to the LunarG SDK examples in the future (public issue
279).
* Add a new <<fundamentals-commandsyntax-results-lifetime,Lifetime of
Retrieved Results>> section specifying that ftext:vkGet* and
ftext:VkEnumerate* results are invariant unless otherwise specified, and
specify behavior for individual commands which are not invariant (public
issue 280).
* Remove conflicting definition of
slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR::pname:maxSrcPosition and clean up
language of the remaining definition (public issue 351).
* Fix many minor spelling errors and add rules to the style guide to
prevent recurrences (public issue 352).
Internal Issues:
* Remove redundant descriptions of the etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macros from
the <<wsi,Window System Integration>> chapter in favor of the
description in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header,Window System-Specific
Header Control>> appendix (internal issue 6).
* Replace misleading 'can: be destroyed when not X' with more correct
'must: not be destroyed while X' in the
<<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime,Object Lifetime>> section. Disallow
destroying a pipeline layout while a command buffer using it is
recording (internal issue 241).
* Clarify that ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSIENT_ATTACHMENT_BIT is valid for
all images used as attachments in elink:VkImageUsageFlagBits and the
slink:VkImageLayout validity language (internal issue 320).
* Note that <<extended-functionality-layers,Layers>> may wrap object
handles, but that this is a generally discouraged. A link to additional
information in the documentation for layer authors is provided (issue
398)
* Replace the mustnot: and shouldnot: macros with equivalent must: not and
should: not to get rid of non-English words while still highlighting
normative language (internal issue 407).
* Disallow creating multisampled images with
ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_CUBE_COMPATIBLE_BIT in the slink:VkImageLayout
validity language and the <<features-supported-sample-counts,Supported
Sample Counts>> section (internal issue 445).
* Fix typo so that flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect is defined in terms of
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed rather than flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect (internal
issue 446).
* Reorganize the per-extension information sections to all be in the
<<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> appendix. Also fix a typo in
+VK_IMG_filter_cubic+ which incorrectly identified it as a +KHR+
extension (internal issue 461).
Other Issues:
* Use asciidoc markup instead of latexmath to simplify diagrams in the
<<features-formats-non-packed,byte mapping tables>> for color formats.
* Fix a markup problem with the wildcarded enumerant names in a NOTE in
the <<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section.
* Fix missing attributes in the XML interface for
elink:VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV and
elink:VkExternalMemoryFeatureFlagBitsNV (KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Hpp issue
#25)
* Cleanup reference page builds so only core pages are built for releases.

Change log for September 30, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.29 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 29 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Remove redundant constraint on
slink:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo::pname:queryFlags (public issue
224).
* Fix typo and remove link in Note in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (public issue 359).
* Fix erroneous validation statement for the pname:layout member of
slink:VkComputePipelineCreateInfo (public issue 362).
Internal Issues:
* Restore long figure captions using asciidoc sidebar blocks, due to
restrictions of asciidoc syntax (internal issue 101).
* Replace most latexmath equations with comparable markup in straight
asciidoc, which significantly improves time required to fully load and
process the HTML forms of the Specification. There are known minor font
and alignment inconsistencies with MathJax and PDF rendering of
latexmath equations. Please do not file github issues about these. We
are aware of the inconsistencies and will make refinements over time,
while the performance improvements are compelling in at least some major
browsers (internal issue 313).
* Move handcoded validity statements from +vk.xml+ into the Specification
body, easing work in the single-branch model. Specify the distinction
between these explicit statements, and the implicit validity statements
inferred from vk.xml. Validity statements now appear in two blocks for

* Add the +returnedonly="false"+ attribute to WSI output structures,
removing incorrectly generated implicit validity statements for
slink:VkDisplayPropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlanePropertiesKHR,
slink:VkDisplayModePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR,
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, and slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures
(internal issue 486).
* Update slink:VkImageLayout to require the
ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT be set for sampled depth/stencil images
(internal issue 487).
* Use an explicit format specifier string for the date command invocation
