Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update. Github Issues: Internal Issues: * Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815). * Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835). * Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide accordingly (internal issue 839). * Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL. * Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal issue 853). * Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage, which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854). * Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures (internal issue 874). * Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName & slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance. * Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a timestamp query pool. * Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements. New Extensions: * `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16` * `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced` * `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax` * `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples` ----------------------------------------------------- Note: the 1.0.52 spec wasn't published on github, so the 1.0.53 release combines both change sets. ----------------------------------------------------- Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update. Github Issues: Internal Issues: * Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has <<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being unmapped>> (internal issue 819). * Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an object, not a variable (internal issue 836). * Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845). * Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`" section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType enumerated type (internal issue 856). * Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros instead of *link (internal issue 886). * Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>> extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension appendix. * Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working Group Members. New Extensions: * `VK_NV_fill_rectangle` * `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

(public pull request 698).
* Modify registry processing script to avoid irrelevant warnings of benign
enumerant redefinitions (public pull request 705).
* Fix some duplicate words and some misspelled "`stagess`" (public pull
request 712)
Internal Issues:
* Enable continuous integration tests on the internal Khronos gitlab
server by adding a .gitlab-ci.yml file. Note: this does not implement CI
on the public Github repository (internal issue 408).
* Add link from description of depth clamping in the <<fragops-depth,
depth test>> section to the
slink:VkPipelineRasterizationStateCreateInfo::pname:depthClampEnable
parameter which enables it, making it easily searchable / findable
(internal issue 1125).
* Clarify that arrays of arrays of descriptors are not allowed in the
<<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> and
<<interfaces-resources-setandbinding, DescriptorSet and Binding
Assignment>> sections (internal issue 1192).
* Comment out some redundant nested asciidoctor conditionals in the
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo valid usage block, and explain in all cases
why the redundant conditional exist and are commented out (internal
issue 1231).

can be used by extensions and implementations for handling Vulkan
sType/pNext style structures in a more generic way (internal issue
1265).

slink:VkAndroidHardwareBufferFormatPropertiesANDROID::pname:formatFeatures
only applies to external-format images. Add references to this in valid
usage statements that previously only referred to
slink:VkFormatProperties (internal issue 1244).
* Fix the description of elink:VkPipelineCreateFlagBits enumerant
ename:VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_VIEW_INDEX_FROM_DEVICE_INDEX_BIT to match the
name (internal issue 1279).
* Add a NOTE to the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding, DescriptorSet
and Binding Assignment>> section making it clear that variables sharing
a storage class may use identical descriptor set and bindings.
Specifically state the sometimes misunderstood ability to have one or
more differently typed image descriptors sharing a descriptor set and
binding (internal SPIR-V issue 264).
* Make DynamicIndexing features and capabilities also control the
uniformity of the descriptor used in memory access instructions in the
<<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> section. This
makes them also apply to variable_pointer usage, which can bypass the
array indexing operation (internal SPIR-V issue 289).
Other Issues:
* Correct flink:vkCmdBlitImage limitations on cubic blits to be 2D only,
not 3D.
* Update valid usage statements for slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo and
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference.

slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet, where all needed information is known, and
remove redundant statements.
* Move SPIR-V restriction that images be of either sampled or storage
types from the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set
Interface>> section to the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation
Rules within a Module>> section of the SPIR-V appendix.

Github Issues: * Refine swapchain association with surface for slink:VkSwapchainKHR, with matching valid usage statements for slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR and discussion following the <<swapchain-wsi-image-create-info>> table (public issue 637). * Re-remove several valid usage statements from slink:VkImageCreateInfo that had previously been removed at the time that ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_EXTENDED_USAGE_BIT was introduced. These statements had incorrectly been restored due to an glitch while merging from the old `1.0` branch to the current `master` branch (public issue 683). Internal Issues: * Fix reference page generation and configure build to generate reference pages 1.1 with all extensions, rather than core only, as was the case for the 1.0 ref pages (internal issues 484, 1056, 1205). * Require that slink:VkMemoryDedicatedRequirements::pname:prefersDedicateAllocation is ename:VK_TRUE when slink:VkMemoryDedicatedRequirements::pname:requiresDedicateAllocation is ename:VK_TRUE (internal issue 1222). * Fix Ruby extension code so `diff_html` Makefile target works (internal issue 1230). * Update `genRelease` script to generate 1.1 + all extensions reference pages - but not the single-page HTML / PDF versions, which are even larger than the API spec (internal issue 1245). Other Issues: * Add missing attributes to `vk.xml` for `VK_ANDROID_native_buffer`. * Specify that the slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:format member is the format of the image *view* that will be used for the attachment. * Use core sname:VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 in the `structextends` `vk.xml` attribute for sname:VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeaturesEXT and sname:VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingPropertiesEXT, rather than the KHR equivalent it was promoted from. * Fix the "`Fragment Input Attachment Interface`" glossary entry to match the specification body. * Clarify the interaction of sRGB images used as storage or texel buffers with <<textures-output-format-conversion, Texel Output Format Conversion>>. * Moved three valid usage statements from slink:VkRenderPassMultiviewCreateInfo up to slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, and added a new valid usage statement for slink:VkRenderPassInputAttachmentAspectCreateInfo. * Added valid usage statements for slink:VkBufferMemoryBarrier and slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier reflecting the global requirement that "`non-sparse resources must be bound to memory before being recorded to command`".

ename:VK_TRUE (internal issue 1222).
* Fix Ruby extension code so `diff_html` Makefile target works (internal
issue 1230).
* Update `genRelease` script to generate 1.1 + all extensions reference
pages - but not the single-page HTML / PDF versions, which are even
larger than the API spec (internal issue 1245).
Other Issues:

Change log for March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).

were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.

flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.

* `VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer`
-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for February 19, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.69 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 69 for this update. Github Issues: * Clean up description of synchronization for flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR (public issue 626). * Move valid usage statements requiring offset and extent to respect image transfer granularity requirements of the queue family they are submitted against from slink:VkImageCopy and slink:VkBufferImageCopy to the corresponding flink:vkCmdCopyImage, flink:vkCmdCopyBufferToImage, and flink:vkCmdCopyImageToBuffer commands, where are relevant information is known (public issue 654). * Clarify that flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr only supports device-level commands (public issue 655). Internal Issues: * Associate each elink:VkDescriptorType with a type of descriptor, and link to descriptions of those types (internal issue 860). * Rework valid usage extraction script to better utilize and respond to spec markup, and fix some spec markup accordingly (internal issues 846, 909, 945). * Rephrase flink:vkCmdPushConstants valid usage to allow overlapping push constant ranges in different shader stages (internal issue 1103). * Fix problem with diff_html target in extension.rb (internal issue 1104). * Modify valid usage statements for slink:VkClearDepthStencilValue, slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo, slink:VkViewport, and flink:vkCmdSetDepthBounds, and the description of vkCmdSetDepthBias, to clarify that clamping is applied if and only if the `VK_EXT_depth_range_unrestricted` is not enabled (internal issue 1124), in versions of the specification built with that extension included. * Resolve contradictions and use of undefined "`per-sample shading`" term in the <<primsrast-sampleshading, Sample Shading>> and <<shaders-fragment-execution, Fragment Shader Execution>> sections; for the <<features-features-sampleRateShading, sampleRateShading feature>>; for code:FragCoord, code:SampleId, and code:SamplePosition; and for slink:sname:VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo (internal issue 1134). * Clarify the meaning of the ptext:maxDescriptorSet* limits in footnote 8 of the <<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> table (internal issue 1139). * Fix broken NOTE markup in slink:VkSamplerCreateInfo.txt (internal issue 1140). * Remove extend comparison language from valid usage statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo, turning it into a simple validation of pname:mipLevels against pname:maxMipLevels (internal issue 1151). * Update valid usage statements for slink:VkImageCopy when the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` extension is enabled to allow multi-slice 2D <-> 3D copies when the pnaem:extent.depth parameter specifies the number of layers being copied, and matches the slink:VkImageSubresourceLayers.layerCount of the 2D image (internal issue 1152). * Rephrase memory / control barrier rules in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section to avoid "`not use none`", which could be misconstrued to allow no synchronization semantics, and only storage class semantics (internal issue 1154). Other Issues: * Move GLSL extension specifications to the KhronosGroup/GLSL repository on Github. * Add missing description of ename:VK_FILTER_CUBIC_IMG enum to slink:VkFilter. * Update description of code:PrimitiveId in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section to clarify its behavior. * Disallow disjoint images from being used with dedicated-memory images in slink:VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfoKHR. * Update README to suggest older versions of "mathematical" and "ruby-gems" packages for use on Cygwin. * Fix typos New Extensions: * `VK_AMD_buffer_marker`
2018-02-19 23:19:38 +00:00
Change log for March 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.70 spec update: * Vulkan 1.1 initial release. Bump API patch number and header version number to 70 for this update. The patch number will be used for both Vulkan 1.1 and Vulkan 1.0 updates, and continues to increment continuously from the previous Vulkan 1.0.69 update. NOTE: We are not publishing an updated 1.0.70 specification, or 1.1 reference pages, along with 1.1.70. There are still minor issues to work out with those build targets. However, we will soon generate all three types of documents as part of the regular spec update cycle. NOTE: The GitHub KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs repository now maintains the current specification in the `master` branch. The `1.0` branch is out of date and will not be maintained, since we will be generating both 1.1 and 1.0 specifications from the `master` branch in the future. Github Issues: * Clarify how mapped memory ranges are flushed in flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges (public issue 127). * Specify that <<synchronization-pipeline-stages, Pipeline Stages>> are a list of tasks that each command performs, rather than necessarily being discrete pieces of hardware that one task flows through. Add a "`synchronization command`" pipeline type which all synchronization command execute (it's just TOP + BOTTOM), with an explanatory note (public issue 554). Internal Issues: * Regenerate all images used in the spec in Inkscape with a consistent look-and-feel, and adjust image size attributes so they're all legible, and not too large with respect to the spec body text (internal issue 701). * Document in the <<extensions,extensions>> appendix and in the style guide that `KHX` extensions are no longer supported or used in the Vulkan 1.1 timeframe (internal issue 714). * Remove the leftover equations_temp directory after PDF build completes (internal issue 925). * Update the <<credits, Credits (Informative)>> appendix to include contributors to Vulkan 1.1, and to list them according to the API version(s) they contributed to (internal issue 987). * Add a NOTE to the introduction explaining that interfaces defined by extensions which were promoted to Vulkan 1.1 are now expressed as aliases of the Vulkan 1.1 type (internal issue 991). * Instrument spec source conditionals so spec can be built with 1.1 features, extensions promoted to 1.1, or both (internal issues 992, 998). * Modify the XML schema and tools to support explicit aliasing of types, structures, and commands, and use this to express the promotion of 1.0 extensions to 1.1 core features, by making the extension interfaces aliases of the core features they were promoted to. Mark up promoted interfaces to allow still generating 1.0 + extension specifications (internal issue 991). * Platform names, along with corresponding preprocessor symbols to enable extensions specific to those platforms, are now reserved in vk.xml using the <platform> tag. Update the registry schema and schema specification to match (internal issue 1011). * Updated the <<textures-texel-replacement, Texel Replacement>> section to clarify that reads from invalid texels for image resources result in undefined values (internal issue 1014). * Modify description of patch version so it continues to increment across minor version changes (internal issue 1033). * Clarify and unify language describing physical device-level core and extension functionality in the <<fundamentals-validusage-extensions, Valid Usage for Extensions>>, <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions, Extending Physical Device From Device Extensions>> <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> sections and for flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that instance-level functionality is tied to the loader, and independent of the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and associated with device extensions; physical devices are treated more uniformly between core and extensions; and instance and physical versions can be different (internal issue 1048). * Updated the <<commandbuffers-lifecycle, Command Buffer Lifecycle>> section to clarify the ability for pending command buffers to transition to the invalid state after submission, and add a command buffer lifecycle diagram (internal issue 1050). * Clarify that some flink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo parameters are ignored when push descriptors are not supported (internal issue 1054). * Specify that flink:vkCreateImage will return an error if the image is too large, in a NOTE in the slink:VkImageFormatProperties description (internal issue 1078). * Remove near-duplicate NOTEs about when to query function pointers dynamically in the <<initialization, Initialization>> chapter and replace by extending the NOTE in the <<fundamentals-abi, Application Binary Interface>> section (internal issue 1085). * Restore missing references to "`Sparse Resource Features`" in the flink:VkBufferCreateFlagBits description (internal issue 1086). * Tidy up definitions of descriptor types in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification, the <<descriptorsets, Resource Descriptors>> section and its subsections, and the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> for consistency, reduction of duplicate information, and removal of GLSL correspondance/examples (internal issue 1090). * Correctly describe code:PrimitiveId as an Input for tessellation control and evaluation shaders, not an Output (internal issue 1109). * Relax the requirements on chroma offsets for nearest filtering in <<textures-implict-reconstruction, Implicit Reconstruction>> (internal issue 1116). Other Issues: * Clarify the intended relationship between specification language and certain terms defined in the Khronos Intellectual Property Rights policy. Specific changes include: ** Rewrote IP/Copyright preamble and introduction to better agree with normative language both as laid out in the introduction, and the Khronos IPR policy. ** Added notion of fully informative sections, which are now tagged with "`(Informative)`" in their titles. ** Removed non-normative uses of the phrase "`not required`" ** Clarified the distinction between terms "`optional`" and "`not required:`" as they relate to the IPR Policy, and updated specification text to use terms consistent with the intent. ** Reduced additions to RFC 2119, and ensured the specification agreed with the leaner language. ** Removed the terms "`hardware`", "`software`", "`CPU`", and "`GPU`" from normative text. ** Moved several paragraphs that should not have been normative to informative notes. ** Clarified a number of definitions in the Glossary. ** Updated the document writing guide to match new terminology changes. * Explicitly state in the <<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime-acquire, application memory lifetime>> language that that for objects other than descriptor sets, a slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout object used in the creation of another object (such as slink:VkPipelineLayout or slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR) is only in use during the creation of that object and can be safely destroyed afterwards. * Updated the <<textures-scale-factor, Scale Factor Operation>> section to use the ratio of anisotropy, rather than the integer sample rate, to perform the LOD calculation. The spec still allows use of the sample rate as the value used to calculate the LOD, but no longer requires it. * Update `vulkan_ext.c` to include all platform-related definitions from the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into platform-specific and non-platform-specific files. * Fix bogus anchor name in the <<commandbuffers, Command Buffers>> chapter which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter.

Change log for March 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.70 spec update:
* Vulkan 1.1 initial release. Bump API patch number and header version
number to 70 for this update. The patch number will be used for both
Vulkan 1.1 and Vulkan 1.0 updates, and continues to increment
continuously from the previous Vulkan 1.0.69 update.

reference pages, along with 1.1.70. There are still minor issues to work

and 1.0 specifications from the `master` branch in the future.
Github Issues:
* Clarify how mapped memory ranges are flushed in
flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges (public issue 127).
* Specify that <<synchronization-pipeline-stages, Pipeline Stages>> are a

Internal Issues:
* Regenerate all images used in the spec in Inkscape with a consistent
look-and-feel, and adjust image size attributes so they're all legible,
and not too large with respect to the spec body text (internal issue
701).
* Document in the <<extensions,extensions>> appendix and in the style
guide that `KHX` extensions are no longer supported or used in the
Vulkan 1.1 timeframe (internal issue 714).
* Remove the leftover equations_temp directory after PDF build completes
(internal issue 925).
* Update the <<credits, Credits (Informative)>> appendix to include
contributors to Vulkan 1.1, and to list them according to the API
version(s) they contributed to (internal issue 987).
* Add a NOTE to the introduction explaining that interfaces defined by
extensions which were promoted to Vulkan 1.1 are now expressed as
aliases of the Vulkan 1.1 type (internal issue 991).
* Instrument spec source conditionals so spec can be built with 1.1
features, extensions promoted to 1.1, or both (internal issues 992,
998).
* Modify the XML schema and tools to support explicit aliasing of types,
structures, and commands, and use this to express the promotion of 1.0
extensions to 1.1 core features, by making the extension interfaces
aliases of the core features they were promoted to. Mark up promoted
interfaces to allow still generating 1.0 + extension specifications
(internal issue 991).
* Platform names, along with corresponding preprocessor symbols to enable
extensions specific to those platforms, are now reserved in vk.xml using
the <platform> tag. Update the registry schema and schema specification
to match (internal issue 1011).
* Updated the <<textures-texel-replacement, Texel Replacement>> section to
clarify that reads from invalid texels for image resources result in
undefined values (internal issue 1014).
* Modify description of patch version so it continues to increment across
minor version changes (internal issue 1033).
* Clarify and unify language describing physical device-level core and
extension functionality in the <<fundamentals-validusage-extensions,
Valid Usage for Extensions>>, <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid
Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers
Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions,
Extending Physical Device From Device Extensions>>
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> sections and for
flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that
instance-level functionality is tied to the loader, and independent of
the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and
associated with device extensions; physical devices are treated more
uniformly between core and extensions; and instance and physical
versions can be different (internal issue 1048).
* Updated the <<commandbuffers-lifecycle, Command Buffer Lifecycle>>
section to clarify the ability for pending command buffers to transition
to the invalid state after submission, and add a command buffer
lifecycle diagram (internal issue 1050).
* Clarify that some flink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo parameters
are ignored when push descriptors are not supported (internal issue
1054).
* Specify that flink:vkCreateImage will return an error if the image is
too large, in a NOTE in the slink:VkImageFormatProperties description
(internal issue 1078).
* Remove near-duplicate NOTEs about when to query function pointers
dynamically in the <<initialization, Initialization>> chapter and
replace by extending the NOTE in the <<fundamentals-abi, Application
Binary Interface>> section (internal issue 1085).
* Restore missing references to "`Sparse Resource Features`" in the
flink:VkBufferCreateFlagBits description (internal issue 1086).
* Tidy up definitions of descriptor types in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl`
specification, the <<descriptorsets, Resource Descriptors>> section and
its subsections, and the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set
Interface>> for consistency, reduction of duplicate information, and
removal of GLSL correspondance/examples (internal issue 1090).
* Correctly describe code:PrimitiveId as an Input for tessellation control
and evaluation shaders, not an Output (internal issue 1109).
* Relax the requirements on chroma offsets for nearest filtering in
<<textures-implict-reconstruction, Implicit Reconstruction>> (internal
issue 1116).
Other Issues:
* Clarify the intended relationship between specification language and
certain terms defined in the Khronos Intellectual Property Rights
policy. Specific changes include:
** Rewrote IP/Copyright preamble and introduction to better agree with
normative language both as laid out in the introduction, and the
Khronos IPR policy.
** Added notion of fully informative sections, which are now tagged with
"`(Informative)`" in their titles.
** Removed non-normative uses of the phrase "`not required`"
** Clarified the distinction between terms "`optional`" and "`not
required:`" as they relate to the IPR Policy, and updated specification
text to use terms consistent with the intent.
** Reduced additions to RFC 2119, and ensured the specification agreed
with the leaner language.
** Removed the terms "`hardware`", "`software`", "`CPU`", and "`GPU`" from
normative text.
** Moved several paragraphs that should not have been normative to
informative notes.
** Clarified a number of definitions in the Glossary.
** Updated the document writing guide to match new terminology changes.
* Explicitly state in the <<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime-acquire,
application memory lifetime>> language that that for objects other than
descriptor sets, a slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout object used in the
creation of another object (such as slink:VkPipelineLayout or
slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR) is only in use during the creation
of that object and can be safely destroyed afterwards.
* Updated the <<textures-scale-factor, Scale Factor Operation>> section to
use the ratio of anisotropy, rather than the integer sample rate, to
perform the LOD calculation. The spec still allows use of the sample
rate as the value used to calculate the LOD, but no longer requires it.
* Update `vulkan_ext.c` to include all platform-related definitions from
the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into
platform-specific and non-platform-specific files.
* Fix bogus anchor name in the <<commandbuffers, Command Buffers>> chapter
which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter. There
were no reference to this anchor, fortunately.
* Add valid usage statement for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet and
slink:VkCopyDescriptorSet requiring that the slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout
used to allocate the source and destination sets must not have been
destroyed at the time flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets is called.
* Document mapping of subgroup barrier functions to SPIR-V, and clarify a
place where subgroupBarrier sounds like it's execution-only in the
standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification.
* Use an HTML stylesheet derived from the Asciidoctor `colony` theme, with
the default Arial font family replaced by the sans-serif Noto font
family.
* Numerous minor updates to README.adoc, build scripts, Makefiles, and
registry and style guide specifications to support Vulkan 1.1 outputs,
use them as defaults, and remove mention of `KHX` extensions, which are
no longer supported.
New Extensions:
* `VK_EXT_vertex_attrib_divisor`

Change log for February 19, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.69 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 69 for this update. Github Issues: * Clean up description of synchronization for flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR (public issue 626). * Move valid usage statements requiring offset and extent to respect image transfer granularity requirements of the queue family they are submitted against from slink:VkImageCopy and slink:VkBufferImageCopy to the corresponding flink:vkCmdCopyImage, flink:vkCmdCopyBufferToImage, and flink:vkCmdCopyImageToBuffer commands, where are relevant information is known (public issue 654). * Clarify that flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr only supports device-level commands (public issue 655).

2018-02-19 23:19:38 +00:00
Change log for February 19, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.69 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 69 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Clean up description of synchronization for flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR
(public issue 626).
* Move valid usage statements requiring offset and extent to respect image
transfer granularity requirements of the queue family they are submitted
against from slink:VkImageCopy and slink:VkBufferImageCopy to the
corresponding flink:vkCmdCopyImage, flink:vkCmdCopyBufferToImage, and
flink:vkCmdCopyImageToBuffer commands, where are relevant information is
known (public issue 654).
* Clarify that flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr only supports device-level
commands (public issue 655).
Internal Issues:
* Associate each elink:VkDescriptorType with a type of descriptor, and
link to descriptions of those types (internal issue 860).
* Rework valid usage extraction script to better utilize and respond to
spec markup, and fix some spec markup accordingly (internal issues 846,
909, 945).
* Rephrase flink:vkCmdPushConstants valid usage to allow overlapping push
constant ranges in different shader stages (internal issue 1103).
* Fix problem with diff_html target in extension.rb (internal issue 1104).
* Modify valid usage statements for slink:VkClearDepthStencilValue,
slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo, slink:VkViewport, and
flink:vkCmdSetDepthBounds, and the description of vkCmdSetDepthBias, to
clarify that clamping is applied if and only if the
`VK_EXT_depth_range_unrestricted` is not enabled (internal issue 1124),
in versions of the specification built with that extension included.
* Resolve contradictions and use of undefined "`per-sample shading`" term
in the <<primsrast-sampleshading, Sample Shading>> and
<<shaders-fragment-execution, Fragment Shader Execution>> sections; for
the <<features-features-sampleRateShading, sampleRateShading feature>>;
for code:FragCoord, code:SampleId, and code:SamplePosition; and for
slink:sname:VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo (internal issue 1134).
* Clarify the meaning of the ptext:maxDescriptorSet* limits in footnote 8
of the <<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> table (internal
issue 1139).
* Fix broken NOTE markup in slink:VkSamplerCreateInfo.txt (internal issue
1140).
* Remove extend comparison language from valid usage statement for
slink:VkImageCreateInfo, turning it into a simple validation of
pname:mipLevels against pname:maxMipLevels (internal issue 1151).
* Update valid usage statements for slink:VkImageCopy when the
`VK_KHR_maintenance1` extension is enabled to allow multi-slice 2D <->
3D copies when the pnaem:extent.depth parameter specifies the number of
layers being copied, and matches the
slink:VkImageSubresourceLayers.layerCount of the 2D image (internal
issue 1152).
* Rephrase memory / control barrier rules in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section
to avoid "`not use none`", which could be misconstrued to allow no
synchronization semantics, and only storage class semantics (internal
issue 1154).
Other Issues:
* Move GLSL extension specifications to the KhronosGroup/GLSL repository
on Github.
* Add missing description of ename:VK_FILTER_CUBIC_IMG enum to
slink:VkFilter.
* Update description of code:PrimitiveId in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section to clarify
its behavior.
* Disallow disjoint images from being used with dedicated-memory images in
slink:VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfoKHR.

"ruby-gems" packages for use on Cygwin.
* Fix typos
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_buffer_marker`

Change log for January 15, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.68 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 68 for this update. Github Issues: * Added more details in the <<extended-functionality-extensions-compatibility, Extension Compatibility>> section, allowing explicit incompatibilities, and simplify corresponding language in the style guide, which now defers to the API Specification on this point (public issue 638). * Fix typo in description of slink:VkCommandBufferLevel::pname:level (public issue 651). * Only include extension-dependent valid usage statement for slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, and note that the extension names for header files described in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window System-Specific Header Control>> section are only valid links, when the specification being viewed is built with the corresponding extensions enabled (public issue 652). Internal Issues: * Add language to elink:VkResult specifying that when commands return an error, output parameter contents are undefined instead of unmodified (except for pname:sType and pname:pNext). Note that this is a behavior change. Add notes calling out slink:VkImageFormatProperties as an exception (internal issue 1118). * Add "`general-purpose`" to the style guide, and correct existing uses of "`general purpose`" as an adjective (internal issue 1121). * Add the ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT_EXT token for the `VK_EXT_validation_cache` extension, following the same naming pattern as other tokens in the extension, but keep the old ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT token around for backwards compatibility (internal issue 1126). Other Issues: * Specify that flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT does not affect copies or clears, matching existing language for the scissor rectangle test. * Move the <<boilerplate-sType, pname:sType>> definition from the boilerplate appendix to the Fundamentals chapter, putting it together with the valid usage of pname:sType rather than having the definition split across two places. * Inline all of the etext:Vk*Flags definitions, moving each one from the boilerplate appendix to appear either after the corresponding etext:Vk*FlagBits value if one is defined, or after the first structure that includes them if not.

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 65 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Replaced inaccurate "`pixel`" with "`texel`" or "`compressed texel
block`" as appropriate in the <<sparsememory, Sparse Resources>> chapter
(public issue 86).
* Attempt to clarify security/integrity guarantees in the
<<fundamentals-errors, Errors>> section (public issue 147).
* Update the <<memory-device,Device Memory>> section with clarifications
and markup fixes (public pull request 194).

sample code for `VK_EXT_debug_marker` extension (public pull request
227).
* Clarified slink:VkFramebufferCreateInfo language regarding concurrent
use of attachment resources during a render pass instance (public issue
299).
* Added overlap rules for destination regions in <<copies,copy commands>>.
Also unified the sparse and non-sparse source-destination overlap rules,
since the non-sparse rules were technically inaccurate in the face of
aliasing in flink:vkBindMemory2 - the new rules are true regardless
(public issue 317).
* Clarified the <<features-features-samplerAnisotropy,
pname:samplerAnisotropy feature>> to only affect the
slink:VkSamplerCreateInfo::pname:anisotropyEnable value, and that
pname:maxAnisotropy is ignored when pname:anisotropyEnable is VK_FALSE
(public issue 503).
* Clarify pointer valid usage statements to use "`valid pointer to valid
_object_`" terminology and update the
<<fundamentals-validusage-pointers,Valid Usage for Pointers>> section
accordingly (public pull request 547).
* Some operations that use integer coordinates can also accept a LOD to
sample from. Add a description of that selection and the validity
conditions in the new <<textures-integer-coordinate-operations, Integer
Texel Coordinate Operations>> section (public issue 548).
* Update stext:VkImageSubresource* valid usage statements (public pull
request 550).
* Added text tying ename:VK_OUT_OF_POOL_MEMORY error for
flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets to the number of descriptor types in the
allocating pool. Removed redundant "`length`" text about number of
descriptors returned (public issue 582).
* Update slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR descriptions (public pull request
585).
* Update slink:VkPipelineViewportWScalingStateCreateInfoNV and related
structures' valid usage statements (public pull request 587).

(public pull request 601).
* Fix some math markup problems and be more consistent in use of asciidoc
math markup (public pull request 602).
Internal Issues:
* Clarified that attribute reads from incomplete vertex buffer elements
are considered out of bounds accesses, in the
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures and flink:vkCmdBindVertexBuffers.txt
sections (internal issue 842).
-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for October 20, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.64 spec update:

Github Issues:
* Add chapter name to the PDF page footer (public pull request 458).
* Fix several mistaken references to the nonexistent etext:VK_DEVICE_LOST
status to etext:VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST (public pull request 502).
* Fix description of the tlink:PFN_vkDebugReportCallbackEXT debug report
callback function pointer to match the validation layer behavior (public
issue 534).
* Document experimental KHX extensions and alternate vendor author IDs
also ending in X in more detail in the <<extensions, Layers &
Extensions>> appendix, the extensions section of the style guide, and
the registry schema description document (public issues 536, 580).
* Fix references to ptext:pDepthStencil to properly refer to
pname:pDepthStencilState or pname:pRasterizationState as appropriate in
the slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo description (public issue 542).
* Fix wrong parameter name in slink:VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo
valid usage (public pull request 571).
Internal Issues:
* Update the style guide to describe how to write LaTeX math expressions
in table cells (internal issue 908).
* Define how framebuffer-local dependencies work between subpasses with
the same or different numbers of samples, in the
slink:VkSubpassDescription and <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions,
Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> sections. This clarifies which samples
in an input attachment you are allowed to access after a
framebuffer-local dependency (internal issue 915).
* Specify which storage classes can have an initializer in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section
(internal issue 1023).
* Use "LOD" consistently for "level-of-detail", to eliminate spelling
inconsistencies. The term is already standardized in the Glossary
(internal issue 1027).
Other Issues:
* Fix false positives in Makefile dependencies when rules fail, by
deleting partially-made targets.

Change log for October 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.63 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 63 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Add missing valid usage statements for ptext:maxDescriptorSets*,
ptext:maxPerStageDescriptorInputAttachments, and
ptext:maxPerStageResources to slink:VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo.txt,
flink:VkComputePipelineCreateInfo, and
flink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo (public issue 546).
* Fix typos in ftext:vkCmdDraw*AMD descriptions (public pull request 549).
* Fixed flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp so it is not unnecessarily restricted to
queues supporting graphics or compute operations (public issue 558).
* Improvements to valid usage generator for output `*Flags` pointer
parameters and for some `void *` parameters (public pull requests 560,
562).
* Document `altlen` attribute in XML schema as valid C99 syntax and tweak
`vk.xml` to match (public pull request 566).
* Clarify when pname:fence is signaled by flink:vkQueueSubmit in a more
obvious place (public issue 577).
Internal Issues:
* Specify a whitelist of supported SPIR-V Storage Classes in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
appendix (internal SPIR-V issue 166).
* Relax the shared semaphore wait timeout requirement in the
<<synchronization-semaphores-importing, Importing Semaphore Payloads>>
section (internal issue 820).
* Update the <<textures-image-level-selection, Image Level(s) Selection>>
equations so that the parameters returned by the level-of-detail query
appear explicitly, also fixing the issue that linear filtering would
select a level below the base level for magnification (internal issue
926).
* Disallow creation of a swapchain with zero pname:imageExtent in
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR and slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR
(internal issue 1020).
Other Issues:
* Clarify in <<textures-operation-validation,Image View Validation>> that
the layout of subresources in an image view must have a layout that
matches that written into the descriptor, and that this section is about
validating image views, not images.
New Extensions:
* `VK_EXT_global_priority`
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 &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; 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 &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;fig-non-strict-lines,Non strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in tables in the &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;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 August 14, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.58 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 58 for this update. Github Issues: * Update the <<interfaces-resources-descset,Descriptor Set Interface>> section to allow multiple variables with the same descriptor set/binding decorations, and require that all variables that are statically used must be consistent with the pipeline layout. Allow ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_COMBINED_IMAGE_SAMPLER to be used with texture and sampler variables (public issues 522, 524). Internal Issues: * Replace networkx package used for extension dependency generation with a homegrown network dependency traverser (internal issue 713). * Specify in the <<interfaces-fragmentoutput, Fragment Output Interface>> section that if a fragment shader writes integers that cannot be represented in the format of the colour attachment, then the result is undefined (internal issue 893). * Separate malformed valid usage statement for slink:VkPipelineRasterizationStateCreateInfo into two (internal issue 918). * Fix cases where the term 'pNext chain' is incorrectly used in reference to functions, rather than their parameters. Replace 'pNext list' with 'pNext chain'. Fixed typo in the example code of +VK_KHR_dedicated_allocation+ (internal issue 944). * Fix typo in elink:VkExternalSemaphoreHandleTypeFlagBitsKHR enum descriptions, replacing etext:VK_EXTERNAL_SEMAPHORE_HANDLE_TYPE_FENCE_FD_BIT_KHR with ename:VK_EXTERNAL_SEMAPHORE_HANDLE_TYPE_SYNC_FD_BIT_KHR, and make the description more consistent with VK_EXTERNAL_FENCE_HANDLE_TYPE_SYNC_FD_BIT_KHR (internal issue 950). Other Issues: * Clarify how pipeline stage masks affect <<synchronization-pipeline-stages-masks, access and synchronization scopes>>. * Clarify that dedicated allocations do not allow aliasing in the flink:vkBindBufferMemory and flink:vkBindImageMemory valid usage statements. * Correct specification of pname:dynamicCount for push_constant token in slink:VkIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_shader_viewport_index_layer`

Change log for October 6, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.62 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 62 for this update. Github Issues: * Move asciidoc conditionals for `VK_KHR_maintenance1` in slink:VkDescriptorSetAllocateInfo so valid usage statements for `VK_KHR_push_descriptor` aren't accidentally removed when the first extension isn't enabled (public issue 573). * Fixed errors in API example code for flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSetWithTemplateKHR and flink:vkCmdPushDescriptorSetWithTemplateKHR (public issue 577). Internal Issues: * Specify constraints on concurrent access to fences that share payload in the <<synchronization-fences-importing, Importing Fence Payloads>> and <<synchronization-semaphores-waiting-state, Semaphore State Requirements For Wait Operations>> sections (internal issue 820). * Define the term "`retired swapchain`", reorganize some swapchain language, and improve language for pname:oldSwapchain in flink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR, the <<swapchain-wsi-image-create-info>> table, flink:vkDestroySwapchainKHR, and flink:vkAcquireNextImage2KHX (internal issue 869). * Describe in the <<writing-arrays, Describing Properties of Array Elements>> section of the style guide how and when to use "`each`" and "`any`" to refer to properties of array elements, and make those uses in the specification consistent (internal issue 884). * Clarified that events cannot be used for cross-queue synchronization in the <<synchronization-events, Events>> section and for flink:vkCmdWaitEvents (internal issue 970). * Add success and error codes to +vk.xml+ for flink:vkCreateValidationCacheEXT (internal issue 995). * Clarify aspect mask usage for image memory barriers of multi-plane images in slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier, and the <<textures-layout-validation, Layout Validation>> section (internal issue 996). Other Issues: * Fixed typo in flink:VkRenderPassSampleLocationsBeginInfoEXT (renamed field pname:pSubpassSampleLocations to pname:pPostSubpassSampleLocations). * Add missing buffer usage requirements for indirect draws in flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect, flink:vkCmdDrawIndirectCountAMD, flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect, and flink:vlCmdDrawIndexedIndirectCountAMD. * Modify Makefile to allow specification to build in git "`detached HEAD`" state. * Update valid usage ID generation script to allow recursively operating on all `.txt` files in a specified directory, and move the `startVUID` tracking information into a separate python file that is automatically updated by the script. New Extensions: * Add +vk.xml+ entries for pending `VK_ANDROID_native_buffer` extension (note, this extension is not yet enabled). * `VK_AMD_shader_image_load_store_lod`

table, flink:vkDestroySwapchainKHR, and flink:vkAcquireNextImage2KHX
(internal issue 869).
* Describe in the <<writing-arrays, Describing Properties of Array
Elements>> section of the style guide how and when to use "`each`" and
"`any`" to refer to properties of array elements, and make those uses in
the specification consistent (internal issue 884).
* Clarified that events cannot be used for cross-queue synchronization in
the <<synchronization-events, Events>> section and for
flink:vkCmdWaitEvents (internal issue 970).
* Add success and error codes to +vk.xml+ for
flink:vkCreateValidationCacheEXT (internal issue 995).

Github Issues:
* Provide alternate length attributes (altlen=) in the XML schema, for
those using length attributes to generate code instead of documentation
(public issue 555).
* Fix erroneous references to `latex:` being used for asciidoc math
markup, rather than `latexmath:` (public pull request 556).
* Add author ID to XML for Kazan software renderer (public pull request
557).
Internal Issues:
* Add the <<fundamentals-abi,Application Binary Interface>> section
describing platform ABI requirements and recommendations, add examples
of function and function pointer declarations to the
<<boilerplate-platform-specific-calling-conventions, Platform-Specific
Calling Conventions>> section, and remove related language that existed
elsewhere in the specification (internal issue 64).
* Describe where to document valid usage interactions of chained
structures in the style guide, and fix one case now appearing in
slink:VkBufferCreateInfo instead of the child
slink:VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV structure (internal issue
715).
* Add example to the style guide of describing enumerated types which are
empty when the spec is built without relevant extensions enabled, and
apply it to existing examples for
elink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutCreateFlagBits and
elink:VkSubpassDescriptionFlagBits (internal issue 864).
* Add a note to the <<fundamentals-validusage-enums, Valid Usage for
Enumerated Types>> section that the special values suffixed with
etext:_BEGIN_RANGE, etext:_END_RANGE, etext:_RANGE_SIZE and
etext:_MAX_ENUM are not part of the API and should: not be used by
applications (internal issue 872).
* Added note to flink:vkCmdUpdateBuffers explaining the performance
penalty for copies done in this way, and why the upper copy limit is
what it is (internal issue 952).
* Update `VK_KHX_device_group` to split some functionality into the new
`VK_KHR_bind_memory2` extension, and rename that functionality (internal
issue 969).
* Remove *Status* fields from extension appendices, since they are by
definition published and complete by the time they reach the public
github repository (internal issue 973).
Other Issues:
* Update Data Format specification dependency to version 1.2 and change
references to DF sections accordingly.
* Update XML to make the pname:pAllocator parameter of
flink:vkRegisterDeviceEventEXT and flink:vkRegisterDisplayEventEXT in
the `VK_EXT_display_control` extension as optional.

Forgot 1.0.60 change log
2017-09-04 10:25:01 +00:00
Change log for September 5, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.60 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 60 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Document that <<queries-timestamps, Timestamp Queries>> can only be
meaningfully compared when they are written from the same queue (public
issue 216).
* Document that the `<extension>` tag `type` attribute is required for
non-disabled extensions (derived from, but does not close public issue
354).
* Clean up registry schema length attribute descriptions to be consistent
and correct (public issue 555).
Internal Issues:
* Replace as much of the hand-written extension appendix metadata as
possible with asciidoc includes generated from corresponding attributes
of +vk.xml+, and enhance the style guide to match. This avoids
inconsistencies between +vk.xml+ and the appendices, and produces a more
uniform style (internal issue 137).
* Remove the generated extDependency.{py,sh} files from the tree and
create them dynamically on demand instead, reducing merge conflicts
(internal issue 713).
* Add a prototype tool for generating in-place difference markup for
sections guarded by asciidoc conditionals, and new syntax for open
blocks to support it (internal issue 833).
* Remove unnecessary restriction of etext:*SYNC_FD_BIT_KHR external handle
types to the same physical device in the
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceIDPropertiesKHR,
flink:VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoKHR,
slink:VkImportFenceWin32HandleInfoKHR, slink:VkImportFenceFdInfoKHR,
slink:VkImportSemaphoreWin32HandleInfoKHR,
slink:VkImportSemaphoreFdInfoKHR
<<external-memory-handle-types-compatibility, External memory handle
types compatibility>>, <<external-semaphore-handle-types-compatibility,
External semaphore handle types compatibility>>, and
<<external-fence-handle-types-compatibility, External fence handle types
compatibility>> sections (internal issue 956).
Other Issues:
* Remove dependency of +VK_KHX_device_group+ on +VK_KHR_swapchain+ (there
is an interaction, but not a strict dependency), and add a new
`extension` attribute to the `<require` XML tag to allow classifying a
subset of interfaces of an extension as requiring another extension.
Update the registry schema and documentation accordingly.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_shader_fragment_mask` (and related `GL_AMD_shader_fragment_mask`
GLSL extension)
* `VK_EXT_sample_locations`
* `VK_EXT_validation_cache`
-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for August 19, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.59 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 59 for this update.

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 &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; 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 &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;fig-non-strict-lines,Non strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in tables in the &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;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 15, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.55 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 55 for this update. Github Issues: * Removed unintended optional parameter in +vk.xml+ from the pname:pWaitSemaphores member of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR, which resulted in the generation of an incorrect implicit valid usage clause allowing pname:pWaitSemaphores to be NULL even when pname:waitSemaphoreCount is non-zero (public issue 491). * Add missing attribute to +vk.xml+ documenting that slink:VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT extends slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfo (public issue 510). * Add const qualifier for some `VK_EXT_debug_market` extension command parameters that were missing it (public issue 513). * Fix definition of q and level~base~ in <<textures-image-level-selection,Image Level(s) Selection>> (public issue 515). * Clarify lifetime requirement for slink:VkRenderPass objects used in object creation (public issue 516). * Fix link to floating/normalized fixed-point conversion from <<interfaces-fragmentoutput,Fragment Output Interface>> (public issue 521).

In addition, restructured the valid usage clauses corresponding to the members of the slink:VkImageSubresourceRange structure and added missing valid usage clauses for its pname:baseMipLevel and pname:baseArrayLayer members (internal issues 803, 849). * Modify `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification to allow explicit std430 on a push_constant declaration (internal issue 919). Other Commits: * Modify <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions, Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> to use synchronization scope terminology. * Add ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT to the `VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace` extension. * Replace XML comments with `comment` attributes and/or tags, to enable tools which transform the XML without loss of information. * Replace `validextensionstructs` with `structextends`, which is tagged in the child structure instead of the parent. This makes it slightly simpler to add new structs to the XML, causes fewer merge conflicts, and the information is kept localized to the extension structures where it belongs. The old `validextensionstructs` attributes will be retained until we're certain this doesn't cause problems with known consumers of +vk.xml+.

out-of-host/out-of-device-memory, and improve the
<<fundamentals-errorcodes, description of those errors (internal issue

* Add a NOTE documenting that flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR can only signal
a single semaphore, and how to deal with that when multiple physical
devices in a logical device need to wait on it (internal issue 730).
* Improve description of pname:pNext chains of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceImageFormatInfo2KHR and
slink:VkImageFormatProperties2KHR (internal issue 814).
* Clean up math markup issues in the <<textures, Image Operations>>
chapter (internal issue 818).

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update. Github Issues: * Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links (public issue 455). * Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466). * Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487). * The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion description (public issue 488). Internal Issues: * Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part of the specification (internal issue 583). * Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583). * Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance extensions, device extensions, or both in the <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749). * Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750). * Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767) * Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>> section (internal issue 770). * Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the <<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal issue 775). * flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec text, but needed an associated valid usage statement. * Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section. * Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section. * Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the debug_report extension.

anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that

Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

Github Issues: * Allow <<synchronization-pipeline-barriers-subpass-self-dependencies, self-dependencies>> (also described for slink:VkSubpassDependency) to have earlier stages depend on later stages if all stages are framebuffer-space (public issue 125). * Clarify when pipeline state structures are ignored in the slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo strucure, when the tessellation structure must be valid, and remove 'if `NULL`' descriptions from the valid usage statements (public issue 445). * Remove the obsolete "validextensionstructs" attribute for flink:VkPresentRegionsKHR. This caused a pname:pNext valid usage statement to be generated which wasn't consistent with what is stated in the spec (public issue 481). Internal Issues: * Clarify facingness of non-polygon fragments for slink:VkStencilOpState and in the code:FrontFacing <<interfaces-builtin-variables,built-in variable description>>. Define 'facingness' of a fragment as a distinct term from facingness of a polygon (internal issue 662). * Clarify that the texture compression features (e.g. pname:textureCompressionBC) means that all formats of that type (<<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR,ASTC>>, <<features-features-textureCompressionETC2,ETC2>>, <<features-features-textureCompressionBC,BC>>) are supported, and that support for individual formats may: queried separately (internal issue 663). * Clarify in the valid usage for slink:VkBindImageMemoryInfoKHX that each SFR rectangle must be a multiple of the sparse block size for each aspect, e.g. in a depth/stencil image using separate depth/stencil planes (internal issue 721). * Re-remove KHX variants of KHR structure types after promotion (internal issue 762).

self-dependencies>> (also described for slink:VkSubpassDependency) to
have earlier stages depend on later stages if all stages are
framebuffer-space (public issue 125).
* Clarify when pipeline state structures are ignored in the
slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo strucure, when the tessellation
structure must be valid, and remove 'if `NULL`' descriptions from the
valid usage statements (public issue 445).
* Remove the obsolete "validextensionstructs" attribute for
flink:VkPresentRegionsKHR. This caused a pname:pNext valid usage
statement to be generated which wasn't consistent with what is stated in
the spec (public issue 481).
Internal Issues:
* Clarify facingness of non-polygon fragments for slink:VkStencilOpState
and in the code:FrontFacing <<interfaces-builtin-variables,built-in
variable description>>. Define 'facingness' of a fragment as a distinct
term from facingness of a polygon (internal issue 662).
* Clarify that the texture compression features (e.g.
pname:textureCompressionBC) means that all formats of that type
(<<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR,ASTC>>,
<<features-features-textureCompressionETC2,ETC2>>,
<<features-features-textureCompressionBC,BC>>) are supported, and that
support for individual formats may: queried separately (internal issue
663).
* Clarify in the valid usage for slink:VkBindImageMemoryInfoKHX that each
SFR rectangle must be a multiple of the sparse block size for each
aspect, e.g. in a depth/stencil image using separate depth/stencil
planes (internal issue 721).
* Re-remove KHX variants of KHR structure types after promotion (internal
issue 762).

* Make clearer that color write mask is applied regardless of whether
blending is enabled, by referring to the
<<framebuffer-color-write-mask,Color Write Mask>> section (public issue
241).
* Fix public issue 414:
** Added two new command buffer states (invalid, pending), and an explicit
"command buffer lifecycle" section to explain them.
** Replaced "pending execution" with "in the pending state".
** Replaced a bunch of "this will invalidate the command buffer" language
with "this will move the command buffer to the invalid state", and added
validation language for what state those command buffers should be in.
** Added additional validation language about what state a command buffer
should be in for various commands that affect it.
** Added invalidation language to destroy commands in the lifetimes section
of fundamentals.
** Added command buffers to list of objects which must not be deleted
whilst a (primary) command buffer is in the recording or pending state.
* Update `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` extension to allow anonymous push constant
blocks (public issue 428).

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 &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; 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 &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;fig-non-strict-lines,Non strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in tables in the &lt;&lt;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 &lt;&lt;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.

Other Commits: * Add validity requirements for flink:vkCmdCopyQueryPoolResults pname:dstBuffer parameter. * Fix ref page build to generate .3 targets in the right output directory.

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 40 for this update.
* There is a major build change in this release. We are now using the
Ruby-based ``asciidoctor'' implementation, rather than the Python-based
``asciidoc'' implementation, to process the specification. While the
actual specification markup changes were minimal, this requires a new
set of build tools and a very different installation process, especially
because we now use an experimental direct-to-PDF backend for Asciidoctor
instead of Docbook->dblatex->PDF. It is no longer possible to build the
Specification using asciidoc. See doc/specs/vulkan/README.adoc
for some guidance on installing the new toolchain components.
* There are some minor rendering issues in the PDF output due to teething
problems with the asciidoctor toolchain, especially with mathematical
equations. We are aware of these and working on them.

2017-03-18 05:53:58 +00:00
* Updated sample code for the <<sparsememory-examples-basic,sparse
resource binding example>> (public issue 97).
* Modify line and point clipping behavior in the
<<vertexpostproc-clipping, Primitive Clipping>> section to allow for
pop-free behavior. The ability to check for which behavior is
implemented may be added a future feature or extension (public issue
113).
* Unify the discussions of implicit ordering throughout the spec, in
particular in the new sections <<drawing-primitive-order, Primitive
Order>>, <<primrast-order, Rasterization Order>>, and
<<synchronization-implicit, Implicit Synchronization Guarantees>>; the
discussion of <<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>>;
and references elsewhere to these sections (public issue 133).
* Clarify \<\<descriptorsets-compatibility,Pipeline Layout Compatibility>>
language and introduce the term ``identically defined'' (public issue
164).
* Add a dependency to the +VK_EXT_debug_marker+ extension that's needed to
reuse the object type enum from +VK_EXT_debug_report+, and moves the

426).
* Correct typo in New Objects list for <<VK_EXT_debug_report>> (public
issue 447).
Change log for April 1, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.8 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 8 for this update. Github Issues: * Specify in the validity language for flink:vkBeginCommandBuffer that pname:commandBuffer mustnot: currently be pending execution (public issue 96). * Describe depth comparison using the correct temporary variable names in the <<textures-depth-compare-operation,Depth Compare Operation>> section (public issue 100). * Clarify the order of descriptor update operations in the flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets command (public issue 115). * Specify in the VK_KHR_swapchain extension that flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR's pname:semaphore and pname:fence parameters cannot both be sname:VK_NULL_HANDLE (partly addresses, but does not fully close, public issue 117 / internal issue 246). * Change reference to the "lifetime" of a Vulkan command to "duration", and define the "duration" term (public issue 135). * Added valid usage language for slink:VkImageLayout to require both pname:height and pname:depth to be 1 for 1D images and pname:depth to be 1 for 2D images (public issue 137). * Fix SPIR-V example code in the <<descriptorsets-inputattachment,Input Attachment>> section to properly decorate the code:InputAttachmentIndex (public issue 139). * Fix reference to nonexistent pname:imageInfo in the description of flink:VkWriteDescriptorSet to refer to pname:pImageInfo (public issue 140). Internal Issues: * Link to the fixed-function vertex chapter from the drawing chapter (internal issue #110) * Fix typo in slink:VkImageCreateInfo validity language: ptext:maxExtent.sampleCounts -> pname:sampleCounts (internal issue 249). * Explain why the non-core token etext:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PRESENT_SRC_KHR is used in the example in the <<synchronization-semaphores,Semaphores>> section (internal issue 251). * Attempt to clarify in the VK_KHR_android_surface extension's <<platformQuerySupport_android,Android Platform Support>> section that there is no Android-specific WSI query, and why (internal issue 252). Other Commits: * Add missing language about ename:VK_INCOMPLETE being returned from array queries when the passed array is too short, in the VK_KHR_display, VK_KHR_swapchain, and VK_KHR_surface extensions.

* Moved to asciidoctor for spec builds (internal issue 121).
* Update style guide to describe where to put new extensions-specific
asciidoc files, and what to name them (internal issue 626).
* Add src/spec/indexExt.py to autogenerate registry index entries linking
into the 1.0-extensions specification, instead of maintaining the index
manually. (internal issue 642).
* Autogenerate extension dependencies and lists of all extensions and all
KHR extensions from the "supported" attributes in +vk.xml+. Execute
+make config/extDependency.sh+ from +doc/specs/vulkan+ when a supported
extension is added to vk.xml, to regenerate the dependency script. The
consequence is that specifying a single extension to the +makeExt+
script will automatically enable all extensions it depends on as well,
and that the +makeAllExts+ and +makeKHR+ scripts do not need to be
updated when a new extension is supported (internal issue 648).
* Put extension appendices all at the same asciidoc section level, so KHR
WSI extensions show up in the HTML index (internal issue 648).

* Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference
between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from
offsets are handled (internal issue 355).
* Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+,
+<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+
extensions (internal issue 448).
* Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and
+<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449).
* Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the
<<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better
approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547).
* Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the
introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal
issue 607).
* Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as
well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax
asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This
change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of
XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation
index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the
document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback
(internal issue 613).

(internal issue 631).

Also made certain scenarios clearer - an implementation may now continue without error if an allocation failed and it is able to continue correctly (public issue 21). * Require that etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set when the corresponding etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT is used, in the <<sparsememory-miptail,Mip Tail Regions>> section and related commands flink:vkCreateBuffer and flink:vkCreateImage (public issue 84). * Update the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> chapter to clarify interactions between optional features and dynamic state for the pname:depthBiasClamp and pname:wideLines features (public issue 89). * Describe the code:WorkgroupSize builtin in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section, and update the <<compute-shaders,Compute Shaders>> section to further clarify how to set the number of workgroups to execute in a compute shader (public issue 145). * Use the term *image subresource* everywhere instead of *subresource*, except for the special case of *host-accessible subresource*, which may be either an image subresource or buffer range (public issue 120) * Add a note to the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> section about extensibility of structures (Public issue 165). * Fix return code flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR when the timeout parameter is 0 to ename:VK_NOT_READY instead of ename:VK_TIMEOUT (public issue 170). * Fix typo in slink:VkLayerProperties::pname:apiVersion field (public issue 172).

2017-03-18 05:53:58 +00:00
* Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that
the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective
source and destination images.
* Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If
the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to
flink:vkAcquireNextImage.
* Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image
must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set.
* Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of
slink:VkPresentInfoKHR in the <<wsi_swapchain,WSI Swapchain>> section.
* Update valid usage for flink:vkCmdSetViewport and flink:vkCmdSetScissor
to account for the multiple viewport feature. If the feature is not
enabled, the parameters for these functions have required values that
are defined in the <<features-features-multiViewport,multiple
viewports>> section of the spec but were not reflected in the valid
usage text for these functions.
* Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common
color spaces.
Change log for April 15, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.10 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 10 for this update. Github Issues: * Slightly tweak the <<memory-allocation,Host Memory>> allocator language so that an application wrapping the standard C alloc/free/realloc functions is still correct - the previous language was too strong with regards to freeing memory. Also made certain scenarios clearer - an implementation may now continue without error if an allocation failed and it is able to continue correctly (public issue 21). * Require that etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set when the corresponding etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT is used, in the <<sparsememory-miptail,Mip Tail Regions>> section and related commands flink:vkCreateBuffer and flink:vkCreateImage (public issue 84). * Update the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> chapter to clarify interactions between optional features and dynamic state for the pname:depthBiasClamp and pname:wideLines features (public issue 89). * Describe the code:WorkgroupSize builtin in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section, and update the <<compute-shaders,Compute Shaders>> section to further clarify how to set the number of workgroups to execute in a compute shader (public issue 145). * Use the term *image subresource* everywhere instead of *subresource*, except for the special case of *host-accessible subresource*, which may be either an image subresource or buffer range (public issue 120) * Add a note to the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> section about extensibility of structures (Public issue 165). * Fix return code flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR when the timeout parameter is 0 to ename:VK_NOT_READY instead of ename:VK_TIMEOUT (public issue 170). * Fix typo in slink:VkLayerProperties::pname:apiVersion field (public issue 172). Internal Issues: * Fix a few minor internally-detected typos. * Minor formatting tweaks to pseudocode in the <<resources,Resource Creation>> chapter (internal issue 179). * Fix typo in the definition of point sampling for elink:VkCullModeFlagBits (internal issue 268).

Internal Issues: * Document that the requested patch version number specified as part of slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:apiVersion is ignored when creating an instance (internal issue 176). * Clarify handling of extension structs in the <<fundamentals-validusageValid Usage>> section (internal issue 254). * Update required slink:VkImageFormatProperties::pname:maxMipLevels to be limited to the maximum allowed mipmap pyramid size corresponding to the actual maximum supported size for the format (internal issue 256). * Modify the <<features-extentperimagetype,Allowed Extent Values Based On Image Type>> section so the allowed maximum extent is the maximum image dimension supported for each dimension of the type of texture being queried (internal issue 257). * Clarify in the <<spirvenv-module-validation,Validation Rules within a Module>> section that at least one of the code:LocalSize execution mode or code:WorkgroupSize decoration is required for each compute shader entry point in a shader module (internal issue 279). * Add validity rules for formats in flink:vkCmdClearColorImage and flink:vkCmdClearDepthStencilImage (internal issue 283). * Clarify that slink:VkImageFormatProperties::pname:maxResourceSize is an upper bound, and that it may not be possible to create an image anywhere near that size (internal issue 284). Other Commits: * Fix various minor markup errors reported by validation scripts. * Change copyright from Khronos Free Use License to Apache 2.0 license on relevant script/XML/header files.

Public Issues: * Merge flink:vkCmdPipelineBarrier self-dependency barrier VUs referring to the same subpass dependency (public pull request 756). * Describe default value of `"optional"` attribute in the registry schema document (public issue 769) * Fix links in <<VK_NVX_raytracing>> extension (public pull request 805). * Mark the <<VK_KHR_mir_surface>> extension obsolete (see public issue 814 - does not close this, however). * Fix missing endif in Image Creation block (public issue 817). Internal Issues: * Clarify that the compressed texture formats corresponding to <<features-features-textureCompressionETC2>>, <<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR>>, and <<features-features-textureCompressionBC>> is not contingent on the feature bits, and may be supported even if the features are not enabled (internal issue 663). * Clarify that code:FragStencilRefEXT is output only in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section (internal issue 1173). * Identify and correct many overly-aggressive uses of "`undefined`", and narrow them down, where straightforward to do so. Mark such resolved uses of "`undefined`" with the custom undefined: macro. Add a new <<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section (internal issue 1267). * Don't require code:inline_uniform_block descriptors to be populated before use in the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets section (internal issue 1380). * Allow suppressing inline SVG images by controlling this with an attribute set in the Makefile, rather than the explicit [%inline] directive (internal issue 1391). * Mark 'Khronos' as a registered trademark in several places, now that it is one. * Fix typo in the <<VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64>> appendix using the GLSL naming of the compare exchange op when referring to the SPIR-V op. * Specify in the flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyProperties section that all implementations must support at least one queue family, and that every queue family must contain at least one queue. * Make slink:VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pname:dynamicStateCount, slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsPerPixel, and slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsCount optional, to fix bogus implicit valid usage checks that were causing failures in the conformance tests. * Fix vendor tag in reserved extension 237 constants. Does not affect anything since it's just a placeholder, but this should avoid further comments. * Minor markup fixes in some extension appendices. New Extensions: * `<<VK_FUCHSIA_imagepipe_surface>>`

* Added validation language for flink:vkCmdWaitEvents,
flink:vkQueueSubmit, flink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, and in the
<<synchronization-pipeline-stages-supported>> section to prevent
recording stage dependencies that aren't supported on the queue
(internal issue 516).
* Make a few changes that generalize spec language for use with possible
future extensions by adding glossary terms and generalizing ``feature''
to ``feature or extension'' where relevant (internal issues 448, 590).
* Added "pipeline type" attribute to +vk.xml+ for relevant commands and
utilize it in automatic generation of the Command Properties table
(internal issue 517).
* Specify that WSI implementations must provide both UNORM and sRGB
formats in the description of slink:VkColorSpaceKHR (internal issue
529).
* Remove nesting of explicit valid usage statements where it is not
meaningful (internal issue 583).
Other Issues:
* Add validity language requiring that
slink:VkPushConstantRange::pname:offset be a multiple of 4, as stated in
the spec language.

* 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

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

* 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

Change log for June 24, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.18 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 18 for this update. Github Issues: * Added "queue operation" terminology, and modified spec to actually use this terminology (public issue 155). The act of submitting a piece of work to a queue now generates "operations" for the queue to execute, including operations to wait on/signal semaphores and fences. Synchronization waits on these operations, making execution dependency chains more obvious for semaphores and fences (though additional work is still needed here). These changes include: ** Overview of "queue submission" commands in chapter <<devsandqueues-submission>>. ** Updated descriptions for fence and semaphore waits and signals in the synchronization chapter <<synchronization-semaphores-waiting>>, <<synchronization-semaphores-signaling>> and <<synchronization-fences-waiting>>. ** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation within queue submission functions. ** New glossary terms. ** Moved device idle and queue wait idle to synchronization chapter in order to describe them in terms of other synchronization primitives. ** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation allowed removal of the "implicit ordering guarantees" section, as this information is now wholly covered where these primitives are described. *** The "host writes" section of this is still there for now - in its own section. This could probably be merged into other sections later. *** Modified fundamentals chapter on queue ordering to make sense in context of the new changes, and avoid duplication. <<fundamentals-queueoperation>> * Added "aspect" and "component" definitions to the glossary, and made sure these terms are referenced correctly (public issue 163). * Update valid usage for ftext:vkGet*ProcAddr to only include conditions that must be met to get a valid result. In particular, it's okay to call flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr with any string and will get a code:NULL if that string is not a core Vulkan function or an enabled extension function (addresses but does not fully close public issue 214). * Change the WSI extension dependencies to refer to version 1.0 of the Vulkan API, instead of the pre-1.0-release internal revisions numbers (public issue 238). * Specified that <<interfaces-fragmentoutput,undeclared fragment shader outputs>> result in undefined values input to the blending unit or color attachment (public issue 240). Internal Issues: * Better documented that the registry XML "optional" tag for values only applies when that value is the size of an array (internal issue 335). * Add a stronger definition for the valid usages of VkSpecializationMapEntry.size in the <<pipelines-specialization-constants,Specialization Constants>> section (internal issue 345). * Change code:OpName to code:OpDecorate (along with appropriate syntax) for vertex shader built-ins (internal issue 368). * Add missing ref pages (those which are not currently stubs) to apispec.txt for the single-page version of the ref pages (internal issue 378). Other Commits: * Fix example in the <<descriptorsets,Descriptor Sets>> section to use M, N, and I, describing set, binding, and index, consistently throughout the example code.

These changes include: ** Overview of "queue submission" commands in chapter <<devsandqueues-submission>>. ** Updated descriptions for fence and semaphore waits and signals in the synchronization chapter <<synchronization-semaphores-waiting>>, <<synchronization-semaphores-signaling>> and <<synchronization-fences-waiting>>. ** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation within queue submission functions. ** New glossary terms. ** Moved device idle and queue wait idle to synchronization chapter in order to describe them in terms of other synchronization primitives. ** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation allowed removal of the "implicit ordering guarantees" section, as this information is now wholly covered where these primitives are described. *** The "host writes" section of this is still there for now - in its own section. This could probably be merged into other sections later. *** Modified fundamentals chapter on queue ordering to make sense in context of the new changes, and avoid duplication. <<fundamentals-queueoperation>> * Added "aspect" and "component" definitions to the glossary, and made sure these terms are referenced correctly (public issue 163). * Update valid usage for ftext:vkGet*ProcAddr to only include conditions that must be met to get a valid result. In particular, it's okay to call flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr with any string and will get a code:NULL if that string is not a core Vulkan function or an enabled extension function (addresses but does not fully close public issue 214). * Change the WSI extension dependencies to refer to version 1.0 of the Vulkan API, instead of the pre-1.0-release internal revisions numbers (public issue 238). * Specified that <<interfaces-fragmentoutput,undeclared fragment shader outputs>> result in undefined values input to the blending unit or color attachment (public issue 240). Internal Issues: * Better documented that the registry XML "optional" tag for values only applies when that value is the size of an array (internal issue 335). * Add a stronger definition for the valid usages of VkSpecializationMapEntry.size in the <<pipelines-specialization-constants,Specialization Constants>> section (internal issue 345). * Change code:OpName to code:OpDecorate (along with appropriate syntax) for vertex shader built-ins (internal issue 368). * Add missing ref pages (those which are not currently stubs) to apispec.txt for the single-page version of the ref pages (internal issue 378). Other Commits: * Fix example in the <<descriptorsets,Descriptor Sets>> section to use M, N, and I, describing set, binding, and index, consistently throughout the example code.

* As promised, we are removing the example code, from the appendix, for
the VK_KHR_surface and VK_KHR_swapchain extensions. The cube demo

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.

Change log for March 17, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.44 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 44 for this update. Github Issues: * Fix description of <<features-extentperimagetype, Allowed Extent Values Based On Image Type>> (public issue 290). * Better specify VK_DEVICE_LOST behavior around flink:vkQueueSubmit, flink:vkWaitForFences, and flink:vkGetFenceStatus (public issue 423). * Clarify definition of flink:vkGetQueryPoolResults::pname:queryCount (public issue 441). * Simplify and clean up normative language. Remove shall and replace recommend and variants with should wherever possible (public issue 448). * Fix all dangling internal cross-references in the 1.0-extensions specification, and add scripts/checkXrefs to find these in the future (public issue 456). * Reverse order of ChangeLog.txt entries so the most recent version is documented first (public issue 463) * Removes "become invalid" which clashes with invalid state for command buffers. (public issue 467) * Disallowed pending state in spec text for vkResetCommandBuffer, matching valid usage (public issue 468) * Removes sentence describing invalid state "like initial state". (public issue 469) * Disallows begin command buffer from resetting command buffers in the "recording" state. (public issue 470) * Removes mention of state from description of VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_RESET_COMMAND_BUFFER_BIT (public issue 471) * Removed extra valid usage statement in VkSubmitInfo (public issue 472) Internal Issues: * Clarify description of the pname:imageLayout member of sname:VkDescriptorImageInfo. * Fix typos where etext:VK_VIEW_TYPE* was used instead of etext:VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE. * Removed the <<VK_KHR_display>> and <<VK_KHR_display_swapchain>> example code from the specification and noted it has been moved to the Vulkan SDK cube demo (internal issue 179). * Reorder VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV description (internal issue 480). * Clarify than an implementation is <<fundamentals-validusage-flags,permitted to return 'undefined' bit flags>> in a bitfield (internal issue 640). * Break Valid Usage statements describing unrelated parameters into separate statements, and add a style guide entry to follow this approach (internal issue 685). * Move valid usage statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo from spec body to the explicit valid usage block (internal issue 693). * Fix typos in the descriptions of slink:VkDisplaySurfaceCreateInfoKHR, flink:vkCreateDisplayModeKHR, and flink:vkGetDisplayPlaneSupportedDisplaysKHR in the <<display,Presenting Directly to Display Devices>> section (internal issue 698, 704, 716). * Clarified that mandatory depth/stencil formats are only a requirement for 2D images (internal issue 719). * Clarify that variables decorated with DeviceIndex/ViewIndex must be in the Input storage class (internal issue 733). * Work around generator script problem with removal of Unicode literals from Python 3.0-3.2 using `future` package (internal issue 737). * Remove nonexistent structure type enums from vk.xml (internal issue 738). * Fix validextensionstructs attributes for structures in the pname:pNext chain for VkPresentInfoKHR, fixing implicit valid usage statements for those structures (internal issue 740). New Extensions:

* 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).

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 March 17, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.44 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 44 for this update. Github Issues: * Fix description of <<features-extentperimagetype, Allowed Extent Values Based On Image Type>> (public issue 290). * Better specify VK_DEVICE_LOST behavior around flink:vkQueueSubmit, flink:vkWaitForFences, and flink:vkGetFenceStatus (public issue 423). * Clarify definition of flink:vkGetQueryPoolResults::pname:queryCount (public issue 441). * Simplify and clean up normative language. Remove shall and replace recommend and variants with should wherever possible (public issue 448). * Fix all dangling internal cross-references in the 1.0-extensions specification, and add scripts/checkXrefs to find these in the future (public issue 456). * Reverse order of ChangeLog.txt entries so the most recent version is documented first (public issue 463) * Removes "become invalid" which clashes with invalid state for command buffers. (public issue 467) * Disallowed pending state in spec text for vkResetCommandBuffer, matching valid usage (public issue 468) * Removes sentence describing invalid state "like initial state".

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 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.

* Reflowed text of the entire spec using the 'reflow' Makefile target, to
(hopefully) reduce future internal git churn as edits are made and
extensions added in return for one-time pain. This has no perceptible
effect on the spec outputs, but considerable changes on the asciidoc
source (internal issue 367).

Change log for August 12, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.24 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 24 for this update. Github Issues: * Fix type mismatch in swapchain image equivalency table (public issue 289). * Fix a copy-and-paste error in the description of flink:vkGetSwapchainImagesKHR::pname:pSwapchainImages, that said it was an array of ``sname:VkSwapchainImageKHR structures'' instead of an array of ``sname:VkImage handles'' (public issue 292). * Specify that ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_CUBE_COMPATIBLE_BIT is only valid for ename:VK_IMAGE_TYPE_2D images (public issue 293). * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands saying that when called outside a render pass instance, the secondary command buffers must not have been created with the ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_RENDER_PASS_CONTINUE_BIT (public issue 297). * Fix description of +VK_NO_STDINT_H+ in the <<boilerplate-platform-macros,platform macros>> section (public issue 314). Internal Issues: * Normalize the language for the remaining built-in variables in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section. Fix code:FrontFacing and code:HelperInvocation, as they should be of code:boolean type rather than code:integer (internal issue 323). * Clarify that when ename:VK_WHOLE_SIZE is used for a buffer descriptor range, the effective range must still be within the max buffer range (internal issue 426). * Clarify that command buffers and descriptor sets are allocated rather than created. Also clarify when the recording state of a command buffer is relevant (internal issue 434).

Github Issues:
Change log for March 31, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.46 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 46 for this update. Github Issues: * Add language to the <<fundamentals-validusage-enums, Valid Usage for Enumerated Types>> section allowing values to be returned from Vulkan that are not present in extensions explicitly enabled by the application, similar to existing language for bit flags in the <<fundamentals-validusage-flags, Valid Usage for Flags>> section (public issue 442). * *Important*: run `gem update --pre asciidoctor-pdf` before trying to build this version of the spec - 1.5.0.alpha15 is required for this change. Removes the monkey patch currently used to draw valid usage blocks across multiple pages which had numerous issues. A fixed version was incorporated into Asciidoctor-PDF for the latest release, so the monkey patch or any variant thereof is no longer required (public issue 465).

2017-03-18 05:53:58 +00:00
* Fix type mismatch in swapchain image equivalency table (public issue
289).
* Fix a copy-and-paste error in the description of
flink:vkGetSwapchainImagesKHR::pname:pSwapchainImages, that said it
was an array of ``sname:VkSwapchainImageKHR structures'' instead of
an array of ``sname:VkImage handles'' (public issue 292).
* Specify that ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_CUBE_COMPATIBLE_BIT is only valid
for ename:VK_IMAGE_TYPE_2D images (public issue 293).
* Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands saying
that when called outside a render pass instance, the secondary
command buffers must not have been created with the
ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_RENDER_PASS_CONTINUE_BIT (public issue
297).
* Fix description of +VK_NO_STDINT_H+ in the
<<boilerplate-platform-macros,platform macros>> section (public
issue 314).
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).

* Normalize the language for the remaining built-in variables in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section. Fix
code:FrontFacing and code:HelperInvocation, as they should be of
code:boolean type rather than code:integer (internal issue 323).
* Clarify that when ename:VK_WHOLE_SIZE is used for a buffer
descriptor range, the effective range must still be within the max
buffer range (internal issue 426).
* Clarify that command buffers and descriptor sets are allocated
rather than created. Also clarify when the recording state of a
command buffer is relevant (internal issue 434).
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.

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).

Internal Issues:
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.

* Describe remaining +vk_platform.h+ macros in the <<boilerplate,API
Boilerplate>> appendix (internal issue 6).
* Clarify
<<features-features-robustBufferAccess,pname:robustBufferAccess>>
feature behavior; what memory can be accessed, how bounds checking is
performed, and allowing for vectorization (internal issue 332).
* Document markup for automatic extraction of reference pages from the
spec sources in the style guide (internal issue 395).
* Allow flink:vkCreateDisplayModeKHR to return
ename:VK_ERROR_INITIALIZAION_FAILED_KHR if the user requests mode
parameters that the specified display does not support (internal issue
411).
* Remove atomic counters (atomic_uint style) from KHR_vulkan_glsl, and
more clearly remove the subroutine keyword alongside it (internal issue
421).
* Clarify behavior of flink:vkCmdBindDescriptorSets for descriptor sets
not contained in the layout (internal issue 427).
Other Commits:
* Change the order in which members of sname:VkAttachmentDescription and
sname:VkPipelineInputAssemblyStateCreateInfo are described to match

The cube demo (shipped in the official Khronos SDK) has been updated, and is the example code that we want people to look at for how to use these two extensions (public issues 279, 308, and 311). * Clarify the formats for which the slink:VkClearColorValue pname:float32 member is used. Also clean up related language for flink:vkCmdBlitImage (public issue 369). * Reword the <<invariance, Invariance>> appendix chapter to better match Vulkan terminology (public issue 372).

* 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.

* 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.
Change log for October 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.32 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 32 for this update.

Removed all references to MEMORY_READ that referenced WSI - they no longer make sense (some aspects of public issues 128, 131, 132, 261, and 298). * Document valid non-boolean +externsync+ attribute values for <param> tags in +vk.xml+ (public issue 265). * Add valid usage to slink:VkImageCreateInfo requiring that pname:arrayLayers be 1 for images of type ename:VK_IMAGE_TYPE_3D (public issue 319). * Add missing captions to figures in the <<textures,Image Operations>> chapter (public issue 334). * Clarify WSI interaction with exclusive sharing mode (public issue 344). * Added explicit language clarifying the allowed queue usage of resources created with ename:VK_SHARING_MODE_CONCURRENT (public issue 386). * Require that the slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutCreateInfo::pname:binding members of the pname:pBindings array passed to flink:vkDescriptorSetLayoutCreateInfo all be distinct (public issue 391). Internal Issues: * Remove empty validity blocks from +vk.xml+ and suppressed broken validity statements and added missing statements to explicit validity. Doesn't affect output, other than some statements appearing in another block now (internal issue 513).

* Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from
the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This
is not a complete solution for the reference pages, but puts them in a
much better state. The ref pages (only) are now placed under a CC BY
open source license, which is more current than the obsolete license
previously used. Various minor tweaks to the Specification sources were
made to enable this, and a new ``API Boilerplate'' chapter added to
include definitions of all the entities in the API and +vulkan.h+ which
were not already described in some form in the document.

Other Issues: * Add a naming rule to the style guide for members of extension structures defining array lengths which are the same as array lengths of the core structure they are chained from. * Add a new generator to create a simple extension loader in +src/ext_loader/vulkan_ext.[ch]+ from +vk.xml+. This code can be included in your project, and is expected to be packaged in the Vulkan SDK provided by LunarG in the future.

* Added "queue operation" terminology, and modified spec to actually
use this terminology (public issue 155). The act of submitting a
piece of work to a queue now generates "operations" for the queue to
execute, including operations to wait on/signal semaphores and
fences. Synchronization waits on these operations, making execution
dependency chains more obvious for semaphores and fences (though
additional work is still needed here). These changes include:
** Overview of "queue submission" commands in chapter
<<devsandqueues-submission>>.
** Updated descriptions for fence and semaphore waits and signals in
the synchronization chapter <<synchronization-semaphores-waiting>>,
<<synchronization-semaphores-signaling>> and
<<synchronization-fences-waiting>>.
** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation within queue
submission functions.
** New glossary terms.
** Moved device idle and queue wait idle to synchronization chapter in
order to describe them in terms of other synchronization
primitives.
** Clarifications to semaphore and fence operation allowed removal of
the "implicit ordering guarantees" section, as this information is
now wholly covered where these primitives are described.
*** The "host writes" section of this is still there for now - in its
own section. This could probably be merged into other sections
later.
*** Modified fundamentals chapter on queue ordering to make sense in
context of the new changes, and avoid duplication.
<<fundamentals-queueoperation>>
* Added "aspect" and "component" definitions to the glossary, and made
sure these terms are referenced correctly (public issue 163).
* Update valid usage for ftext:vkGet*ProcAddr to only include
conditions that must be met to get a valid result. In particular,
it is okay to call flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr with any string and will
get a code:NULL if that string is not a core Vulkan function or an
enabled extension function (addresses but does not fully close
public issue 214).
* Change the WSI extension dependencies to refer to version 1.0 of the
Vulkan API, instead of the pre-1.0-release internal revisions
numbers (public issue 238).
* Specified that <<interfaces-fragmentoutput,undeclared fragment
shader outputs>> result in undefined values input to the blending
unit or color attachment (public issue 240).
* Fix latexmath:[$\leq$] operators turning into Unicode left arrow symbols
(public issue 245).

* Better documented that the registry XML "optional" tag for values
only applies when that value is the size of an array (internal issue
335).
* Add a stronger definition for the valid usages of
VkSpecializationMapEntry.size in the
<<pipelines-specialization-constants,Specialization Constants>>
section (internal issue 345).
* Change code:OpName to code:OpDecorate (along with appropriate
syntax) for vertex shader built-ins (internal issue 368).
* Add missing ref pages (those which are not currently stubs) to
apispec.txt for the single-page version of the ref pages (internal
issue 378).
Other Commits:
* Fix example in the <<descriptorsets,Descriptor Sets>> section to use
M, N, and I, describing set, binding, and index, consistently
throughout the example code.
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).

Github Issues: * Fix "recorded with" terminology in the valid usage language for the flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands::pname:pCommandBuffers parameter (public issue 390). * Modify +genvk.py+ to support specifying extensions to remove from output generators, allowing the extension loader +vulkan_ext.c+ to be created without WSI extensions which are statically exported by the Vulkan loader (public issue 412). * Added validation language for slink:VkSubpassDependency and in the <<synchronization-access-types-supported,supported access types>> section to catch access masks that include bits which are not supported by pipeline stages in the stage masks (partially addresses public issue 1006). Internal Issues: * Added validation language for flink:vkCmdWaitEvents, flink:vkQueueSubmit, flink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, and in the <<synchronization-pipeline-stages-supported>> section to prevent recording stage dependencies that aren't supported on the queue (internal issue 516). * Make a few changes that generalize spec language for use with possible future extensions by adding glossary terms and generalizing ``feature'' to ``feature or extension'' where relevant (internal issues 448, 590). * Added "pipeline type" attribute to +vk.xml+ for relevant commands and utilize it in automatic generation of the Command Properties table (internal issue 517). * Specify that WSI implementations must provide both UNORM and sRGB formats in the description of slink:VkColorSpaceKHR (internal issue 529). * Remove nesting of explicit valid usage statements where it is not meaningful (internal issue 583). Other Issues: * Add validity language requiring that slink:VkPushConstantRange::pname:offset be a multiple of 4, as stated in the spec language.

sname:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo::pname:framebuffer. If used, it
must match the framebuffer in the current renderpass instance
(public issue 226).
* Added valid usage language to require for all functions that set
dynamic state that the currently bound graphics pipeline has the

Github Issues: * Fix "recorded with" terminology in the valid usage language for the flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands::pname:pCommandBuffers parameter (public issue 390). * Modify +genvk.py+ to support specifying extensions to remove from output generators, allowing the extension loader +vulkan_ext.c+ to be created without WSI extensions which are statically exported by the Vulkan loader (public issue 412). * Added validation language for slink:VkSubpassDependency and in the <<synchronization-access-types-supported,supported access types>> section to catch access masks that include bits which are not supported by pipeline stages in the stage masks (partially addresses public issue 1006). Internal Issues: * Added validation language for flink:vkCmdWaitEvents, flink:vkQueueSubmit, flink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, and in the <<synchronization-pipeline-stages-supported>> section to prevent recording stage dependencies that aren't supported on the queue (internal issue 516). * Make a few changes that generalize spec language for use with possible future extensions by adding glossary terms and generalizing ``feature'' to ``feature or extension'' where relevant (internal issues 448, 590). * Added "pipeline type" attribute to +vk.xml+ for relevant commands and utilize it in automatic generation of the Command Properties table (internal issue 517). * Specify that WSI implementations must provide both UNORM and sRGB formats in the description of slink:VkColorSpaceKHR (internal issue 529). * Remove nesting of explicit valid usage statements where it is not meaningful (internal issue 583). Other Issues: * Add validity language requiring that slink:VkPushConstantRange::pname:offset be a multiple of 4, as stated in the spec language.

<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section, and in the
<<glossary,Glossary>> section when functionality should be exposed
as an instance extension, as a device extension, or as both
(internal issue 109).
* Place WorkgroupSize in alphabetical order in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-in Variables>> section
(internal issue 323).
* Corrects valid usage in vkEndRenderPass to only affect primary
render passes, as secondaries may be entirely within a render pass,
and should be able to be ended (previous language disallowed that)
(internal issue 338).
* Fix relational operator from <= to >= in the
<<features-extentperimagetype,Allowed Extent Values>> section
(internal issue 343).
* Disallow recursion under SPIR-V entry points in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation,Validation Rules within a Module>>
section (internal SPIR-V issue 37).
Other Commits:
* Use standard Python ElementTree package instead of lxml.etree in
header / validation layer / include autogeneration from XML,
reducing platform dependencies.

that they match the SPIR-V specification.
Change log for January 23, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.39 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 39 for this update. Github Issues: * Clarified that only accesses via the specified buffer/image subresource ranges are included in the access scopes (public issue 306). * Add missing valid usage statements for flink:vkCreateComputePipelines and flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines (public issue 427). Internal Issues: * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from offsets are handled (internal issue 355). * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+, +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+ extensions (internal issue 448). * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449). * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547). * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal issue 607). * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback (internal issue 613). * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices (internal issue 631). Other Issues: * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective source and destination images. * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to flink:vkAcquireNextImage. * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set. * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR in the <<wsi_swapchain,WSI Swapchain>> section. * Update valid usage for flink:vkCmdSetViewport and flink:vkCmdSetScissor to account for the multiple viewport feature. If the feature is not enabled, the parameters for these functions have required values that are defined in the <<features-features-multiViewport,multiple viewports>> section of the spec but were not reflected in the valid usage text for these functions. * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common color spaces.

Change log for May 13, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.13 spec update:
Change log for January 23, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.39 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 39 for this update. Github Issues: * Clarified that only accesses via the specified buffer/image subresource ranges are included in the access scopes (public issue 306). * Add missing valid usage statements for flink:vkCreateComputePipelines and flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines (public issue 427). Internal Issues: * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from offsets are handled (internal issue 355). * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+, +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+ extensions (internal issue 448). * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449). * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547). * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal issue 607). * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback (internal issue 613). * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices (internal issue 631). Other Issues: * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective source and destination images. * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to flink:vkAcquireNextImage. * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set. * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR in the <<wsi_swapchain,WSI Swapchain>> section. * Update valid usage for flink:vkCmdSetViewport and flink:vkCmdSetScissor to account for the multiple viewport feature. If the feature is not enabled, the parameters for these functions have required values that are defined in the <<features-features-multiViewport,multiple viewports>> section of the spec but were not reflected in the valid usage text for these functions. * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common color spaces.

Remove shall and replace recommend and variants with should wherever possible (public issue 448). * Fix all dangling internal cross-references in the 1.0-extensions specification, and add scripts/checkXrefs to find these in the future (public issue 456). * Reverse order of ChangeLog.txt entries so the most recent version is documented first (public issue 463) * Removes "become invalid" which clashes with invalid state for command buffers. (public issue 467) * Disallowed pending state in spec text for vkResetCommandBuffer, matching valid usage (public issue 468) * Removes sentence describing invalid state "like initial state". (public issue 469) * Disallows begin command buffer from resetting command buffers in the "recording" state.

* Clarify in the <<pipelines-cache,Pipeline Cache>> section that
implementations should not manage the size of pipeline cache (internal
issue 192).
* Deprecate the concept of device layers and associated commands (internal
issue 255).
* Remove ename:VK_INCOMPLETE from the list of possible result codes of
flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR (internal issue 314).
* Add missing std140/std430 rule: the base alignment of a member following
a structure is a multiple of the structure's base alignment (internal
issue 321).
* Fixes naming of the single elink:VkColorSpaceKHR enum from
ename:VK_COLORSPACE_SRGB_NONLINEAR_KHR to
ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_SRGB_NONLINEAR_KHR in XML/header and the
VK_KHR_swapchain and VK_KHR_surface extensions to match the style of the
typename (space and color are two words, not one) (internal issue 322).
* Make it clear that code:LocalInvocationID should only be applied to an
input variable and normalize the language describing
code:LocalInvocationID to the language for other compute shader
variables in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-in Variables>>
section, and add normative language (internal issue 323).
* Clarify in the <<fundamentals-returncodes,Return Codes>> section that
the result pointer may be modified for specific commands, even if a
runtime error is returned (internal issue 324).
Change log for February 10, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.40 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 40 for this update. * There is a major build change in this release. We are now using the Ruby-based ``asciidoctor'' implementation, rather than the Python-based ``asciidoc'' implementation, to process the specification. While the actual specification markup changes were minimal, this requires a new set of build tools and a very different installation process, especially because we now use an experimental direct-to-PDF backend for Asciidoctor instead of Docbook->dblatex->PDF. It is no longer possible to build the Specification using asciidoc. See doc/specs/vulkan/README.adoc for some guidance on installing the new toolchain components. * There are some minor rendering issues in the PDF output due to teething problems with the asciidoctor toolchain, especially with mathematical equations. We are aware of these and working on them. Github Issues: * Updated sample code for the <<sparsememory-examples-basic,sparse resource binding example>> (public issue 97). * Modify line and point clipping behavior in the <<vertexpostproc-clipping, Primitive Clipping>> section to allow for pop-free behavior. The ability to check for which behavior is implemented may be added a future feature or extension (public issue 113). * Unify the discussions of implicit ordering throughout the spec, in particular in the new sections <<drawing-primitive-order, Primitive Order>>, <<primrast-order, Rasterization Order>>, and <<synchronization-implicit, Implicit Synchronization Guarantees>>; the discussion of <<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>>; and references elsewhere to these sections (public issue 133). * Clarify \<\<descriptorsets-compatibility,Pipeline Layout Compatibility>> language and introduce the term ``identically defined'' (public issue 164). * Add a dependency to the +VK_EXT_debug_marker+ extension that's needed to reuse the object type enum from +VK_EXT_debug_report+, and moves the definition of that enum into +VK_EXT_debug_report+ where it should be (public issue 409). * Remove redundant valid usage statement from slink:VkImageBlit (public issue 421). * Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl to allow the ternary operator to result in a specialization constant (public issue 424). * Fix valid usage for flink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo (public issue 426). * Correct typo in New Objects list for <<VK_EXT_debug_report>> (public issue 447). Internal Issues: * Moved to asciidoctor for spec builds (internal issue 121). * Update style guide to describe where to put new extensions-specific asciidoc files, and what to name them (internal issue 626). * Add src/spec/indexExt.py to autogenerate registry index entries linking into the 1.0-extensions specification, instead of maintaining the index manually. (internal issue 642). * Autogenerate extension dependencies and lists of all extensions and all KHR extensions from the "supported" attributes in +vk.xml+. Execute +make config/extDependency.sh+ from +doc/specs/vulkan+ when a supported extension is added to vk.xml, to regenerate the dependency script. The consequence is that specifying a single extension to the +makeExt+ script will automatically enable all extensions it depends on as well, and that the +makeAllExts+ and +makeKHR+ scripts do not need to be updated when a new extension is supported (internal issue 648). * Put extension appendices all at the same asciidoc section level, so KHR WSI extensions show up in the HTML index (internal issue 648). Other Issues: * Imbed images in the generated HTML specs instead of loading them from the images/ directory. * Fix missing EXT in extension name (ename:VK_EXT_SWAPCHAIN_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENSION_NAME). * Add new +VK_EXT_SMPTE_2086_metadata+ extension. * In the <<platformCreateSurface_xlib,Xlib Surface>> section of the +VK_KHR_xlib_surface+ specification, add language warning users that they always need to call code:XinitThreads. * Use the term "presentable image" (rather than "swapchain image") consistently in +VK_KHR_swapchain+ and related extensions, and add a glossary term defining it. * Relocate the valid usage for samples of flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties2KHR::pname:pFormatInfo to be below the flink:VkPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatInfo2KHR structure.

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 12 for this
update.
Change log for February 10, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.40 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 40 for this update. * There is a major build change in this release. We are now using the Ruby-based ``asciidoctor'' implementation, rather than the Python-based ``asciidoc'' implementation, to process the specification. While the actual specification markup changes were minimal, this requires a new set of build tools and a very different installation process, especially because we now use an experimental direct-to-PDF backend for Asciidoctor instead of Docbook->dblatex->PDF. It is no longer possible to build the Specification using asciidoc. See doc/specs/vulkan/README.adoc for some guidance on installing the new toolchain components. * There are some minor rendering issues in the PDF output due to teething problems with the asciidoctor toolchain, especially with mathematical equations. We are aware of these and working on them. Github Issues: * Updated sample code for the <<sparsememory-examples-basic,sparse resource binding example>> (public issue 97). * Modify line and point clipping behavior in the <<vertexpostproc-clipping, Primitive Clipping>> section to allow for pop-free behavior. The ability to check for which behavior is implemented may be added a future feature or extension (public issue 113). * Unify the discussions of implicit ordering throughout the spec, in particular in the new sections <<drawing-primitive-order, Primitive Order>>, <<primrast-order, Rasterization Order>>, and <<synchronization-implicit, Implicit Synchronization Guarantees>>; the discussion of <<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>>; and references elsewhere to these sections (public issue 133). * Clarify \<\<descriptorsets-compatibility,Pipeline Layout Compatibility>> language and introduce the term ``identically defined'' (public issue 164). * Add a dependency to the +VK_EXT_debug_marker+ extension that's needed to reuse the object type enum from +VK_EXT_debug_report+, and moves the definition of that enum into +VK_EXT_debug_report+ where it should be (public issue 409). * Remove redundant valid usage statement from slink:VkImageBlit (public issue 421). * Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl to allow the ternary operator to result in a specialization constant (public issue 424). * Fix valid usage for flink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo (public issue 426). * Correct typo in New Objects list for <<VK_EXT_debug_report>> (public issue 447). Internal Issues: * Moved to asciidoctor for spec builds (internal issue 121). * Update style guide to describe where to put new extensions-specific asciidoc files, and what to name them (internal issue 626). * Add src/spec/indexExt.py to autogenerate registry index entries linking into the 1.0-extensions specification, instead of maintaining the index manually. (internal issue 642). * Autogenerate extension dependencies and lists of all extensions and all KHR extensions from the "supported" attributes in +vk.xml+. Execute +make config/extDependency.sh+ from +doc/specs/vulkan+ when a supported extension is added to vk.xml, to regenerate the dependency script.

property types for slink:VkMemoryType, and update the style guide
accordingly (public issue 190).
* Fix various "a image" -> "an image" typos (public issue 191).
* Note in the <<fundamentals-validusage,Valid Usage>> and
<<extensions-interactions,Extension Interactions>> sections that
structures defined by extensions which may be passed in structure
chains using the ptext:pNext member must include initial
ptext:sType and ptext:pNext members (public issue 192).

Other Issues: * Imbed images in the generated HTML specs instead of loading them from the images/ directory. * Fix missing EXT in extension name (ename:VK_EXT_SWAPCHAIN_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENSION_NAME). * Add new +VK_EXT_SMPTE_2086_metadata+ extension. * In the <<platformCreateSurface_xlib,Xlib Surface>> section of the +VK_KHR_xlib_surface+ specification, add language warning users that they always need to call code:XinitThreads. * Use the term "presentable image" (rather than "swapchain image") consistently in +VK_KHR_swapchain+ and related extensions, and add a glossary term defining it. * Relocate the valid usage for samples of flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties2KHR::pname:pFormatInfo to be below the flink:VkPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatInfo2KHR structure.

* Slightly tweak the <<memory-allocation,Host Memory>> allocator language
so that an application wrapping the standard C alloc/free/realloc
functions is still correct - the previous language was too strong with
regards to freeing memory. Also made certain scenarios clearer - an
implementation may now continue without error if an allocation failed
and it is able to continue correctly (public issue 21).
* Require that etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set when the
corresponding etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT is used, in the

flink:vkCreateBuffer and flink:vkCreateImage (public issue 84).

interactions between optional features and dynamic state for the
pname:depthBiasClamp and pname:wideLines features (public issue 89).
* Describe the code:WorkgroupSize builtin in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section, and update
the <<compute-shaders,Compute Shaders>> section to further clarify how
to set the number of workgroups to execute in a compute shader (public
issue 145).
* Use the term *image subresource* everywhere instead of *subresource*,
except for the special case of *host-accessible subresource*, which may
be either an image subresource or buffer range (public issue 120)
* Add a note to the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> section
about extensibility of structures (Public issue 165).
* Fix return code flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR when the timeout parameter
is 0 to ename:VK_NOT_READY instead of ename:VK_TIMEOUT (public issue

Change log for April 1, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.8 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 8 for this
update.
Github Issues:
* Specify in the validity language for flink:vkBeginCommandBuffer that
pname:commandBuffer must not currently be pending execution (public
issue 96).
* Describe depth comparison using the correct temporary variable names
in the <<textures-depth-compare-operation,Depth Compare Operation>>
section (public issue 100).
* Clarify the order of descriptor update operations in the
flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets command (public issue 115).
* Specify in the VK_KHR_swapchain extension that
flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR's pname:semaphore and pname:fence
parameters cannot both be sname:VK_NULL_HANDLE (partly addresses,
but does not fully close, public issue 117 / internal issue 246).
* Change reference to the "lifetime" of a Vulkan command to
"duration", and define the "duration" term (public issue 135).
* Added valid usage language for slink:VkImageLayout to require both
pname:height and pname:depth to be 1 for 1D images and pname:depth
to be 1 for 2D images (public issue 137).
* Fix SPIR-V example code in the
<<descriptorsets-inputattachment,Input Attachment>> section to
properly decorate the code:InputAttachmentIndex (public issue 139).
* Fix reference to nonexistent pname:imageInfo in the description of
flink:VkWriteDescriptorSet to refer to pname:pImageInfo (public
issue 140).
Internal Issues:
* Link to the fixed-function vertex chapter from the drawing chapter
(internal issue 110)
* Fix typo in slink:VkImageCreateInfo validity language:
ptext:maxExtent.sampleCounts -> pname:sampleCounts (internal issue
249).
* Explain why the non-core token etext:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PRESENT_SRC_KHR
is used in the example in the
<<synchronization-semaphores,Semaphores>> section (internal issue
251).
* Attempt to clarify in the VK_KHR_android_surface extension's
<<platformQuerySupport_android,Android Platform Support>> section
that there is no Android-specific WSI query, and why (internal issue
252).
Other Commits:
* Add missing language about ename:VK_INCOMPLETE being returned from
array queries when the passed array is too short, in the
VK_KHR_display, VK_KHR_swapchain, and VK_KHR_surface extensions.

Change log for March 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.7 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 7 for this
update.
Github Issues:
* Fix slink:VkSpecializationMapEntry example to avoid C/C++ strict
aliasing issues (public issue 14).
* Clarify the meaning of "matching" in flink:vkCmdBindDescriptorSets
validity language (public issue 33).
* Add stub reference pages so xrefs to not-yet-written pages do not
generate 404 errors. However, the actual content of these pages
still needs to be filled in as time allows (public issue 44, but
does not close that issue out).
* Remove incorrect validity statement for
flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements (public issue 85).
* Reword the
<<features-limits-bufferImageGranularity,bufferImageGranularity>>
feature in terms of "aliasing", and clarify that it applies to
bindings in the same memory object (public issue 90).
* Clarify the relationship of the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits
pname:maxViewportDimensions and pname:viewportBoundsRange limits
(public issue 92).
* Specify sparse unbound texture replacement in the
<<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section
independently of robust buffer access language (public issue 100).
* Add the <<fundamentals-architecture-model,Architecture Model>>
section to explain architecture constraints Vulkan has chosen to
accept in order to enable portable and performant code (public issue
122).
* State that an object must not be destroyed until *all* (not *any*)
uses of that object have completed (public issue 123).
* Minor editorial cleanup (public issues 129, 134, 146, 148).
* Add validity language for layer and extension names to
slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo matching that used for
slink:VkInstanceCreateInfo (public issue 130).
* Clean up terminology for the case when the bits set in one bitmask
are a subset of the bits set in another bitmask (public issue 138).
* Document that input attachments are UniformConstant not Input, in
the <<interfaces-inputattachment,Fragment Input Attachment
Interface>> section (public glslang bug 169).
Internal Issues:
* Add max enum values to "flag bits" enums (internal issue 136).
* Clarify language around the various uses of the term "block" in the
<<appendix-compressedtex-bc,Block Compressed Image Formats>> section
(internal issue 202).
* Removed "expand" dependency from <enums> groups in vk.xml and added
auto-generation code in the scripts to infer it instead, to ensure
consistency. This caused renaming of sname:VkColorSpaceKHR and
sname:VkPresentModeKHR etext:BEGIN_RANGE (etc.) tokens, but those
tokens are metadata, not part of the API, and the Vulkan WG is OK
with this change. This change adds ranges to two additional enums
that were missing them due to not defining the "expand" attribute
(internal issue 217).
* Tweak makefile to generate ref page nroff (.3) files in the right
output directory, working around an a2x limitation (internal issue
223).
Other Commits:
* Add validity requirements for flink:vkCmdCopyQueryPoolResults
pname:dstBuffer parameter.
* Fix ref page build to generate .3 targets in the right output
directory.
-----------------------------------------------------
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 do not 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. Do not 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 March 4, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.5 spec update:
* Bump API patch number to 5 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Correctly describe slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties pname:deviceName
member as a string, not a pointer to a string. Also one typo fix for
"hetereogeneous" (public issue 4).
* Replace maynot: macro with may: not, and "may: or maynot:" with
"may:" (public issue 4).
* Clarify that redundantly setting the state of a fence or event has
no effect (public issue 4).
* Minor fixes to ref pages to track descriptions of memory bits that
changed in the core spec. Fix name of a member in the description of
sname:sname:VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo (public issues 8,
13).
* Remove redundant validity statement for
sname:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo::pname:stageCount (public issue
14).
* Fix typos in chapters 7-9 (public issue 14).
* Clarify the example demonstrating the behavior of
code:OpMemoryBarrier in the
<<shaders-execution-memory-ordering,shader memory acces
ordering>> section (public issue 16).
* Specify that freeing mapped memory implicitly unmaps the memory in
the description of flink:vkFreeMemory (public issue 17).
* Forbid allocation callbacks from calling into the API in the
<<memory-allocation,memory allocation>> section (public issue
20).
* Add missing validity rules about size being greater than 0 and
offset being less than size of object. Fix
flink:VkMappedMemoryRange's misinterpretation of offset (public
issues 27, 31).
* Add validity rule disallowing overlapping source/destination
descriptors in flink:VkCopyDescriptorSet (public issue 32).
* Clarify that array and matrix stride has to be a multiple of the
base alignment of the array or matrix in the
<<interfaces-resources-layout,Offset and Stride Assignment>>
section (public issue 38).
* Correct parenthesis floor nesting error in equation for
<<textures-RGB-sexp,RGB to shared exponent conversion>>.
Clarify case of when exp' is forced to 0, avoiding log2(0) undefined
problem (public issue 40).
* Remove redundant statement from the code:FragDepth description in
the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>>
section (public issue 47).
* Define the clamping of the
<<textures-level-of-detail-operation,bias added to the scale
factor>> by linking to the slink:VkPhysicalDevice feature
pname:maxSamplerLodBias (public issue 64).
* Fix typo "optimal linear resources" and clarify the set of resources
<<features-limits-bufferImageGranularity,the
pname:bufferImageGranularity resource>> applies to (public issue
67).
* Replace 'descriptor accessed by a pipeline' language for
sname:VkDescriptorSetAllocateInfo with more precise phrasing about
binding a descriptor set before a command that invokes work using
that set (public issue 69).
* tstripadj.svg contained an Inkscape tag which caused Firefox and IE
11 to fail to render it, and was illegal SVG. Generating Plain SVG
from the Inkscape SVG source fixes this (public issue 70).
* Fix validity for sname:VkVertexInputBindingDescription and
sname:VkVertexInputAttributeDescription numbers (public issue 72).
Internal Issues:
* Clarify the meaning of
ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_LINEAR_BIT in
elink:VkFormatFeatureFlagBits with respect to depth compare
(internal issue 107).
* Added a note explaining that ename:VK_QUEUE_TRANSFER_BIT may or may
not be reported for a queue family that already supports
ename:VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT or ename:VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT as the
former is a strict subset of the latter ones (internal issue 116).
* Add validity language for sname:VkDescriptorSetAllocateInfo about
exceeding the descriptor pool capacity (internal issue 140).
* Add ename:VK_INCOMPLETE success code for
flink:vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices query (internal issue 163).
Other Commits:
* Add the VK_NV_glsl_shader extension definitions to the API.
* Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl with 1) origin_upper_left as default 2)
specialization array constant semantics.
* Corrected/updated Data Format Specification date.
-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for February 25, 2015 Vulkan 1.0.4 spec update:
* Bump API patch number from 3 to 4 for the first public update to the
spec. Add patch number to the spec title (this will be done
automatically from XML, later).
* Fixes for numerous editorial issues. Regularize descriptions of
variable-length array queries. Properly tag enumerants so they come
out in the right font (many were mislabeled in usage tags in vk.xml,
or not tagged). Spelling and markup corrections (public issue 4).
* Fix typos and clearly separate description of different types of
memory areas (public issue 5).
* Use standards-compliant preprocessor guard symbols on headers
(public issue 7).
* Note that Github users cannot currently set labels on issues, and
recommend a fallback approach (public issue 15).
* Use latexmath prefix on len= attributes (public issue 29).
* Make flink:vkCmdUpdateBuffer pname:dataSize limit consistent (public
issue 65).
* Add VK_KHR_mirror_clamp_to_edge extension to core API branch, as an
optional feature not introducing new commands or enums (internal
issue 104).
* Cleanup invariance language inherited from the GL specification to
not refer to nonexistent (GL-specific) state (internal issue 111).
* Modify the flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed pname:vertexOffset definition to
not be the "base offset within the index buffer" but rather the
"value added to the vertex index before indexing into the vertex
buffer" (internal issue 118).
* Fix drawing chapter in the "Programmable Primitive Shading" section
where it described categories of drawing commands. It referenced
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed twice. Replace the second reference with
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect (internal issue 119).
* Typo fixed in <<sparsememory-examples-advanced,Advanced Sparse
Resources>> sparse memory example (internal issue 122).
* Add flink:VkDisplayPlaneAlphaFlagsKHR to <require> section of
VK_KHR_display extension (internal issue 125)
* Add missing optional="false,true" to
flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements
pname:pSparseMemoryRequirementCount parameter (internal issue 132)
* Rename ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CREATE_INFO_EXT to
ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CALLBACK_CREATE_INFO_EXT
(internal issue 133)
* Fix a handful of broken cross-references in the
<<samplers,Samplers>> chapter (internal issue 134).
* Fix "Input Attachement" GLSL example to use correct syntax (internal
issue 135).
* Update XML schema and documentation to accomodate recently added
attributes for validity. Add some introductory material describing
design choices and pointing to the public repository to file issues.
* Put include of validity in the core spec extensions chapter on its
own line, so that asciidoc is happy.
* Fix vertexOffset language to specify that it is the value added to
the vertex index before indexing into the vertex buffer, not the
base offset within the index buffer.
* Fix error in the description of flink:vkCmdNextSubpass.
-----------------------------------------------------
February 16, 2016 - Vulkan 1.0 initial public release
Change log for March 10, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.43 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 43 for this update. Github Issues: * Make clearer that color write mask is applied regardless of whether blending is enabled, by referring to the <<framebuffer-color-write-mask,Color Write Mask>> section (public issue 241). * Fix public issue 414: ** Added two new command buffer states (invalid, pending), and an explicit "command buffer lifecycle" section to explain them. ** Replaced "pending execution" with "in the pending state". ** Replaced a bunch of "this will invalidate the command buffer" language with "this will move the command buffer to the invalid state", and added validation language for what state those command buffers should be in. ** Added additional validation language about what state a command buffer should be in for various commands that affect it. ** Added invalidation language to destroy commands in the lifetimes section of fundamentals. ** Added command buffers to list of objects which must not be deleted whilst a (primary) command buffer is in the recording or pending state. * Update `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` extension to allow anonymous push constant blocks (public issue 428). Internal Issues: * Document rules about extension interactions in the style guide (internal issue 579). * Require ename:VK_PRESENT_MODE_MAILBOX_KHR support in queries of surfaces created with flink:vkCreateWaylandSurfaceKHR using the VK_KHR_wayland_surface extension (internal issue 666). * Remove Valid Usage constraints for flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when the `VK_KHR_maintainance1` extension is present (internal issue 686). * Remove undocumented KHX-variants of vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR and vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2KHR from the <<VK_KHX_external_memory_capabilities>> and <<VK_KHX_external_semaphore_capabilities>> extensions. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_hdr_metadata` * `VK_GOOGLE_display_timing`
