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 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 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.

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,

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.

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.

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 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`

This extension allows variables decorated with the code:Layer and
|
|
|
|
code:ViewportIndex built-ins to be exported from vertex or tessellation
|
|
|
|
shaders, using the code:ShaderViewportIndexLayerEXT capability.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using GLSL source-based shading languages, the code:gl_ViewportIndex
|
|
|
|
and code:gl_Layer built-in variables map to the SPIR-V code:ViewportIndex
|
|
|
|
and code:Layer built-in decorations, respectively.

Behaviour of these variables is extended as described in the

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.
