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.

Parameters
----------
* pname:device is the logical device that owns the pipeline cache.
* pname:pipelineCache is the pipeline cache to retrieve data from.
* pname:pDataSize is a pointer to a value related to the amount of data in
the pipeline cache, as described below.
* pname:pData is either `NULL` or a pointer to a buffer.
2016-02-16 01:53:44 -08:00
Description
-----------
If pname:pData is `NULL`, then the maximum size of the data that can: be
retrieved from the pipeline cache, in bytes, is returned in pname:pDataSize.
Otherwise, pname:pDataSize must: point to a variable set by the user to the
size of the buffer, in bytes, pointed to by pname:pData, and on return the
variable is overwritten with the amount of data actually written to
pname:pData.
If pname:pDataSize is less than the maximum size that can: be
retrieved by the pipeline cache, at most pname:pDataSize bytes will be
written to pname:pData, and fname:vkGetPipelineCacheData will return
ename:VK_INCOMPLETE. Any data written to pname:pData is valid and can: be
provided as the pname:pInitialData member of the
sname:VkPipelineCacheCreateInfo structure passed to
fname:vkCreatePipelineCache.
[[pipelines-cache-header]]
Applications can: store the data retrieved from the pipeline cache, and use
these data, possibly in a future run of the application, to populate new
pipeline cache objects. The results of pipeline compiles, however,
may: depend on the vendor ID, device ID, driver version, and other details
of the device. To enable applications to detect when previously retrieved
data is incompatible with the device, the initial bytes written to
pname:pData must: be a header consisting of the following members:
Change log for August 26, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.25 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 25 for this update. * Structurally change the specification so that multiple extensions are included in the +1.0+ git branch, and specifications will include or not include those extensions at build time based on options passed to the Makefile. See +doc/specs/vulkan/README.html+ and the ``Layers and Extensions'' section of the ``Vulkan Documentation and Extensions'' document for more information on this change. * Register and publish new extensions in the single-branch form: ** +VK_NV_external_memory_capabilities+ ** +VK_NV_external_memory+ ** +VK_NV_external_memory_win32+ ** +VK_NV_win32_keyed_mutex+ Github Issues: * Clarify description of GetInstanceProcAddr and GetDeviceProcAddr (public issue 212). * Add SPIR-V <<textures-operation-validation, instruction validation>> for single-sampled images (public issue 316). * Fix spelling of ``tesselation'' in a few places and note it as an exception to the American spelling rules convention (public issue 327). * Fix Makefile to create output directory for ``styleguide'' target (public issue 329). * Fix numerous minor issues with incorrectly tags on enumerant names and table titles (public issue 330). * Generate specversion.txt date in UTC time and RFC 2822 format (public issue 335). * Convert link to the SPIR-V Specification for flink:VkShaderModuleCreateInfo into an internal link to the normative reference (public issue 336). * Add ename:VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY error code to flink:vkCreateDebugReportCallbackEXT (public issue 337). Internal Issues: * Update style guide regarding use of code:NULL and dname:VK_NULL_HANDLE (internal issue 393). * Change the definition of latexmath:[$q$] in the <<textures-image-level-selection,texture image level selection>> section to be the index of the maximum defined level for the view, not the number of levels in the view (internal issue 406). * Allow developers to override dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE with their own binary-compatible definition (internal issue 439). * Fix +vk_platform.h+ conditional logic causing compile failure with some Android compilers (internal issue 441). * Implement the single-branch model as described above (internal issue 461). Other Issues:

.Layout for pipeline cache header version ename:VK_PIPELINE_CACHE_HEADER_VERSION_ONE
[width="85%",cols="8%,21%,71%",options="header"]
|=====
| Offset | Size | Meaning
| 0 | 4 | length in bytes of the entire pipeline cache header
written as a stream of bytes, with the least
significant byte first
| 4 | 4 | a elink:VkPipelineCacheHeaderVersion value
written as a stream of bytes, with the least
significant byte first
| 8 | 4 | a vendor ID equal to
sname:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties::pname:vendorID
written as a stream of bytes, with the least
significant byte first
| 12 | 4 | a device ID equal to
sname:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties::pname:deviceID
written as a stream of bytes, with the least
significant byte first
| 16 | ename:VK_UUID_SIZE | a pipeline cache ID equal to
sname:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties::pname:pipelineCacheUUID
|=====
The first four bytes encode the length of the entire pipeline header, in
bytes. This value includes all fields in the header including the pipeline
cache version field and the size of the length field.
// refBegin VkPipelineCacheHeaderVersion Encode pipeline cache version
The next four bytes encode the pipeline cache version. This field is
interpreted as a elink:VkPipelineCacheHeaderVersion value, and must:
have one of the following values:

include::../api/enums/VkPipelineCacheHeaderVersion.txt[]
A consumer of the pipeline cache should use the cache version to interpret
the remainder of the cache header.
// refEnd VkPipelineCacheHeaderVersion vkCreatePipelineCache vkGetPipelineCacheData
If pname:pDataSize is less than what is necessary to store this
header, nothing will be written to pname:pData and zero will be written to
pname:pDataSize.
