Change log for January 5, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.67 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 67 for this update. * Update copyright dates to 2018 Github Issues: * Fix texture lookup functions in `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification (public pull request 363). * Clarify the state waited semaphores are left in when a call to flink:vkQueuePresentKHR fails (public issue 572). * Cleanup descriptions of slink:VkObjectTablePushConstantEntryNVX and slink:VkObjectTableDescriptorSetEntryNVX (public issue 583) * Remove redundant flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT valid usage statements (public pull 586). * Make dynamic state array length valid usage statements implicit for flink:vkCmdSetViewportWScalingNV, flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT, and flink:vkCmdSetViewport (public pull 589). * Clarify meaning of window extent (0,0) in slink:VkSwapchainKHR for the Windows and X11 platforms, in their respective extensions (public issue 590). * Allow flink:vkGetPastPresentationTimingGOOGLE to return ename:VK_INCOMPLETE (public issue 604). * Add synchronization valid usage statements to flink:vkAcquireNextImage (public pull 611). * Fix some broken external links and internal xrefs (public pull 613). * Clean up slink:VkViewport valid usage statements in the presence or absence of relevant extensions (public pull 623). * Remove ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_READ_ONLY_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT_OPTIMAL_KHR token from VK_KHR_maintenance2 from the non-extension VU path for slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo (public issue 628). * Miscellaneous minor markup fixes - extension name strings (public pull 631), Notes (pull 633), queue names emitted by generator scripts (pull 634), block formatting in slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateEntryKHR (pull 635), ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_CUBIC_BIT_IMG (pull 641), quotes and apostrophes (pull 643), * Miscellaneous minor grammar fixes (public pull 644). * Fix markup macros so usage like ptext:*Src* works (public pull 647). Internal Issues: * Clarify in the `VK_KHR_surface` and `VK_KHR_swapchain` extensions that parameter combinations which aren't supported for normal images are also unsupported for presentable images, even if the parameter values are individually supported as reported by the surface capability queries (internal issue 1029). * Fixed XML typo in the valid value field of the pname:sType member of slink:VkPhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryHostPropertiesEXT (internal issue 1100). Other Issues: * Add memory semantics validity rules to the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section of the SPIR-V environment appendix, and specify that sequentiality consistency is not supported. This forbids certain cases like "`Load+Release`" that we don't expect to ever be meaningful. * Document mapping of OpenGL Shading Language barriers to SPIR-V scope and semantics in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_conservative_rasterization`

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.

Change log for July 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.20 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 20 for this update. Github Issues: * Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This isn't 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. Further improvements to the pages should not edit them directly, but instead concentrate on the specification source from which the ref pages are being extracted (public issues 44, 55, 160; internal issue 389).

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

Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

Change log for 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).

Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

Change log for September 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 July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features.

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.

Internal Issues: * Clarify in the `VK_KHR_surface` and `VK_KHR_swapchain` extensions that parameter combinations which aren't supported for normal images are also unsupported for presentable images, even if the parameter values are individually supported as reported by the surface capability queries (internal issue 1029). * Fixed XML typo in the valid value field of the pname:sType member of slink:VkPhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryHostPropertiesEXT (internal issue 1100). Other Issues: * Add memory semantics validity rules to the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section of the SPIR-V environment appendix, and specify that sequentiality consistency is not supported. This forbids certain cases like "`Load+Release`" that we don't expect to ever be meaningful. * Document mapping of OpenGL Shading Language barriers to SPIR-V scope and semantics in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification.

=== Vulkan Version Number Macros
<<fundamentals-versionnum,API Version Numbers>> are packed into integers.
These macros manipulate version numbers in useful ways.
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.

Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

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 July 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.20 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 20 for this update. Github Issues: * Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This isn't 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. Further improvements to the pages should not edit them directly, but instead concentrate on the specification source from which the ref pages are being extracted (public issues 44, 55, 160; internal issue 389).

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`

This has no perceptible change on the spec outputs but considerable changes on the asciidoc source (internal issue 367).

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

flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties.
Change log for July 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.20 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 20 for this update. Github Issues: * Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This isn't 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. Further improvements to the pages should not edit them directly, but instead concentrate on the specification source from which the ref pages are being extracted (public issues 44, 55, 160; internal issue 389).

Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

dname:VK_MAKE_VERSION constructs an API version number.
Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

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).

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).

=== Vulkan Handle Macros
Change log for July 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.20 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 20 for this update. Github Issues: * Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This isn't 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. Further improvements to the pages should not edit them directly, but instead concentrate on the specification source from which the ref pages are being extracted (public issues 44, 55, 160; internal issue 389).

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`

dispatchable handle>> type.
Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

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).

The +vulkan.h+ header allows the dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE
definition to be overridden by the application.
If dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE is already defined when the
+vulkan.h+ header is compiled the default definition is skipped.
This allows the application to define a binary-compatible custom handle
which may: provide more type-safety or other features needed by the
application.
Behavior is undefined if the application defines a non-binary-compatible
handle and may: result in memory corruption or application termination.
Binary compatibility is platform dependent so the application must: be
careful if it overrides the default dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE

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`

Change log for July 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.20 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 20 for this update. Github Issues: * Replaced existing reference pages by text automatically extracted from the specification source, or generated from vk.xml in some cases. This isn't 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. Further improvements to the pages should not edit them directly, but instead concentrate on the specification source from which the ref pages are being extracted (public issues 44, 55, 160; internal issue 389).

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).

<<fundamentals-validusage-handles, specifically allowed>>.
Change log for July 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.22 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 22 for this update. Github Issues: * Translate the subpass self-dependency language into concrete validity statements, and added a validity statement about the restrictions on layout parameters (public issue 267). * Add validity requirement that slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:finalLayout and slink:VkAttachmentReference::pname:layout must not be ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED or ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED (public issue 268). * Clarify that slink:VkSubpassDescription::pname:pResolveAttachments layouts are used. Make language consistent with other attachment arrays (public issue 270). * Changed 64-bit definition for dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE to work for x32 platform in +vk.xml+ and the resulting +vulkan.h+ (public issue 282). * Add missing error return code for flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 285) * Fix several cases of stext::VkStructName.memberName markup to stext::VkStructName::pname:memberName, to match other usage in the spec, and describe this markup in the style guide (public issue 286). * Modified validity language generation script to avoid redundant common ancestor language if covered by generic parent language, and used `Both' instead of `Each' when appropriate (public issue 288). Internal Issues: * Add language about behavior of flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets when allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation (internal issue 309). * For the features of code:PointSize, code:ClipDistance, and code:CullDistance, the SPIR-V capability is required to be declared on use (read or write) rather than on decoration (internal issue 359). * Have desktop versions of GLSL respect precision qualification (code:mediump and code:lowp) when compiling for Vulkan. These will get translated to SPIR-V's code:RelaxedPrecision decoration as they do with OpenGL ES versions of GLSL (ESSL). The default precision of all types is code:highp when using a desktop version (internal issue 360). * Add validity statement for slink:VkImageCreateInfo specifying that multisampled images must be two-dimensional, optimally tiled, and with a single mipmap level (internal issue 369). * Add validity statements to slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo disallowing creation of images or image views with no supported features. Made some slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo validity statements more precise and consistent. Added a Note to the <<features,features>> chapter about formats with no features (internal issue 371). * Remove +manpages+ from default build targets. Nroff outputs containing imbedded latexmath will not render properly. Fixing this is a lot of work for limited use cases (internal issue 401). Other Commits: * Fix flink:vkRenderPassBeginInfo::pname:clearValueCount validity statement to be based on attachment indices rather than the number of cleared attachments (Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/issues/601). * Convert registry documentation from LaTeX to asciidoc source and rename from +src/spec/readme.tex+ to +src/spec/registry.txt+. * Fix lack of Oxford commas in validity language. * Lots of cleanup of generator scripts and Makefiles to move extension list for generator into the script arguments instead of the body of genvk.py, and express better dependencies between XML, scripts, and generated files.

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. New Extensions: * `VK_KHR_bind_memory2` * `VK_KHR_image_format_list` * `VK_KHR_maintenance2` * `VK_KHR_sampler_ycbcr_conversion`

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

Change log for January 5, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.67 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 67 for this update. * Update copyright dates to 2018 Github Issues: * Fix texture lookup functions in `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification (public pull request 363). * Clarify the state waited semaphores are left in when a call to flink:vkQueuePresentKHR fails (public issue 572). * Cleanup descriptions of slink:VkObjectTablePushConstantEntryNVX and slink:VkObjectTableDescriptorSetEntryNVX (public issue 583) * Remove redundant flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT valid usage statements (public pull 586). * Make dynamic state array length valid usage statements implicit for flink:vkCmdSetViewportWScalingNV, flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT, and flink:vkCmdSetViewport (public pull 589). * Clarify meaning of window extent (0,0) in slink:VkSwapchainKHR for the Windows and X11 platforms, in their respective extensions (public issue 590). * Allow flink:vkGetPastPresentationTimingGOOGLE to return ename:VK_INCOMPLETE (public issue 604). * Add synchronization valid usage statements to flink:vkAcquireNextImage (public pull 611). * Fix some broken external links and internal xrefs (public pull 613). * Clean up slink:VkViewport valid usage statements in the presence or absence of relevant extensions (public pull 623). * Remove ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_READ_ONLY_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT_OPTIMAL_KHR token from VK_KHR_maintenance2 from the non-extension VU path for slink:VkGraphicsPipelineCreateInfo (public issue 628). * Miscellaneous minor markup fixes - extension name strings (public pull 631), Notes (pull 633), queue names emitted by generator scripts (pull 634), block formatting in slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateEntryKHR (pull 635), ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_SAMPLED_IMAGE_FILTER_CUBIC_BIT_IMG (pull 641), quotes and apostrophes (pull 643), * Miscellaneous minor grammar fixes (public pull 644). * Fix markup macros so usage like ptext:*Src* works (public pull 647). Internal Issues: * Clarify in the `VK_KHR_surface` and `VK_KHR_swapchain` extensions that parameter combinations which aren't supported for normal images are also unsupported for presentable images, even if the parameter values are individually supported as reported by the surface capability queries (internal issue 1029). * Fixed XML typo in the valid value field of the pname:sType member of slink:VkPhysicalDeviceExternalMemoryHostPropertiesEXT (internal issue 1100). Other Issues: * Add memory semantics validity rules to the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section of the SPIR-V environment appendix, and specify that sequentiality consistency is not supported. This forbids certain cases like "`Load+Release`" that we don't expect to ever be meaningful. * Document mapping of OpenGL Shading Language barriers to SPIR-V scope and semantics in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_conservative_rasterization`

Change log for February 27, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.42 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 42 for this update (the first anniversary edition). Github Issues: * Changed asciidoctor macros so cross-page links in the standalone reference pages function properly (public issue 462). Internal Issues: * Clarified host visibility discussion for slink:VkMemoryType, flink:vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges, elink:VkAccessFlagBits, and the <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions,Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> section, removing duplicated information and adding a central definition in the access types section (internal issue 552). * Change description of slink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfacePresentModesKHR::pname:pPresentModes to return an array of values, not structures (internal issue 699).

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.

Github Issues: * Add explicit valid value attributes to pname:sType members in vk.xml (public issue 34). * Clarify usage of flink:vkGetInstanceProcAddr and flink:vkGetDeviceProcAddr (public issue 225). * Fix a copy-and-paste error in the description of pname:pSwapchainImageCount saying that it was the count of ``format pairs'' instead of ``swapchain images'' (public issue 292). * flink:vkCmdExecuteCommandBuffers requires all command buffers to be allocated from command pools created for the same queue family (public issue 296). * Remove bogus +optional+ attribute for flink:vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties::pname:physicalDevice from vk.xml (public issue 301). * Clean up the <<resources-image-views-compatibility,image and image view compatibility table>> reference and contents. Use full enumerant names. Refer to pname:layerCount in the ``view parameters'' column instead of pname:arrayLayers. Require N >= 1 for the cube array subview row, not just arrayLayers >= 6 N (public issue 304). * Modify description of <<resources-memory-aliasing,memory aliasing>> to be consistent with the description of <<resources-bufferimagegranularity,buffer image granularity>> (public issue 307). Internal Issues: * 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 their order in the structures.
