Change log for November 25, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.94 spec update:
* Update release number to 94.
Public Issues:
* Use the terms "`texel block`" and "`texel block size`" instead of "`data
element`" and "`element size`", and define "`element`" as an array slot.
In addition to the terminology changes, retitled the <<texel-block-size,
Representation and Texel Block Size>> section and added texel block size
/ no. of texels/block information to the
<<features-formats-compatibility, Compatible Formats>> table. There is
some additional work underway to make sure the compatibility language
makes sense for all of uncompressed, compressed, and multiplanar formats
(public issue 763).
* Cleanup `VK_NV_ray_tracing` language (public issues 858, 859).
Internal Issues:
* Specify in <<shaders-invocationgroups, Invocation and Derivative
Groups>> and <<textures-output-format-conversion, Texel Output Format
Conversion>> that derivative groups are quads when code:SubgroupSize >=
4 (internal issue 1390).
* Make the type of slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo::pNext
`const` following pattern for the other stext:Vk*CreateInfo structures
(internal issue 1459).
* Specify that flink:vkCmdClearAttachments executes as a drawing command,
rather than a transfer command (internal issue 1463).
* Update `VK_NV_ray_tracing` to use code:InstanceId instead of
code:InstanceIndex.
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_swapchain_mutable_format`
* `VK_EXT_fragment_density_map`

Change log for January 13, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.98 spec update:
* Update release number to 98.
Public Issues:
* Fix missing markup in flink:vkDestroyPipelineLayout valid usage
statement (pull request 882).
* Add missing contributors for `<<VK_EXT_buffer_device_address>>` (public
pull request 891).
Internal Issues:
* Detect nested bullet points in valid usage blocks and warn about them
during VUID assignment (internal issue 1382).
* Update the style guide to document the process for reserving new bits in
bitmask types (internal issue 1411).
* Clarify for slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:apiVersion and in the
<<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core
Versions>> section when it is valid for an application to use a certain
version of Vulkan API functionality (for an instance and for a
device/physical device); and when the validation layers must generate an
error (internal issue 1412).
* Add optional <<memory-model-availability-visibility, transitive
availability/visibility operations to the memory model, including a new
pname:vulkanMemoryModelAvailabilityVisibilityChains feature for
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR (internal issue
1460).
* Add the code:StorageBuffer storage class to those in the
<<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> (internal
issue 1480).
* Add missing `returnedonly` tags for a number of returned extension
structures that can be passed in pname:pNext chains (internal issue
1515).
* Clean up and rearrange some spec language for
slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo and slink:VkAttachmentReference.txt
(internal issue 1522).
* Correctly round the code:OpVectorTimesScalar and
code:OpMatrixTimesScalar SPIR-V operations in the <<Precision of core
SPIR-V Instructions>> table (internal merge request 2996).
* Work around cases in flink:vkCmdBeginTransformFeedbackEXT,
flink:vkCmdEndTransformFeedbackEXT, and
slink:VkPipelineCoverageModulationStateCreateInfoNV where an array
parameter is `optional` but the length is not in `vk.xml`. This is an
interim fix using `noautovalidity` + handcoded VU replacing those that
should be autogenerated (internal issue 2944 and
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-ValidationLayers/issues/480).
* Remove redundant capability validation of the code:float16 and code:int8
SPIR-V capabilities from the <<spirvenv-capabilities, Capabilities>>
section, since they are already covered in the preceding table.
* Update check_spec_links script, including validation for reference page
open blocks. Fix errors identified by the script.

This extension allows an application to specify areas of the render target
|
|
|
|
|
where the fragment shader may be invoked fewer times.
|
|
|
|
|
These fragments are broadcasted out to multiple pixels to cover the render
|
|
|
|
|
target.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The primary use of this extension is to reduce workloads in areas where
|
|
|
|
|
lower quality may not be perceived such as the distorted edges of a lens or
|
|
|
|
|
the periphery of a user's gaze.
