Change log for March 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.6 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 6 for this update. Github Issues: * Define 'invocation group' for compute and graphics shaders. Cleanup definition and use of 'workgroup', and add glossary entries (public issue 1). * Various minor editorial fixes (public issue 33). * Clarify locations for block members in the &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; section (public issues 80, 81). * Remove discussion of return codes from flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties and flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements, which don't return values (public issue 82). * Allow flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect and flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect pname:drawCount of 0, as well as 1, when the multiDrawIndirect feature is not supported (public issue 88). * Remove confusing wording in the &lt;&lt;features-limits,Limits>> section describing the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits pname:minTexelBufferOffsetAlignment, pname:minUniformBufferOffsetAlignment, and pname:minStorageBufferOffsetAlignment members as both minimums and maximums (public issue 91). * Clarified that only the RGB components should be affected in places where sRGB is referred to in the spec, such as ASTC formats. Minor re-wording to avoid "color space" when actively incorrect, now that we refer to the Data Format Spec which actually makes a distinction between color space and transfer function (public issue 94). * Treat pname:pPropertyCount == 0 consistently in flink:vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties (public issue 99) * Cleanup minor editorial issues in chapters 14-17 (public issue 100). * Clarify definition of flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 101). * Define the flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties pname:pLayerName parameter to be a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string (public issue 101). * Rearrange "Missing information" references in mandatory format tables (public issue 101). * Clarify that the enumerated extensions returned by flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties will only include extensions provided by the platform or extensions implemented in implicitly enabled layers (public issue 101). * Miscellaneous editorial fixes. Include the Vulkan spec patch number in the PDF title. Fix label on &lt;&lt;fig-non-strict-lines,Non strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in tables in the &lt;&lt;features-required-format-support,Required Format Support>> section. Don't require FQDNs used as layer names be encoded in lower case if not possible, in the &lt;&lt;extensions-naming-conventions, Extension and Layer Naming Conventions>> section (public issues 101, 119, 121). Internal Issues: * Fixed excessive spacing in tables in XHTML (internal issue 18). * Clarify that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT applies to secondary command buffers. Previously spec only referred to the members of pname:pCommandBuffers being affected by this bit. Added a separate slink:VkSubmitInfo Valid Usage restriction specifying that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT also applies to any secondary command buffers that are recorded into the primary command buffers in pname:pCommandBuffers (internal issue 106). * Clarify that slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo::pname:pEnabledFeatures can be NULL (internal issue 117). * Remove "the value of" where it is redundant (e.g. speaking of an API parameter, struct member, or SPIR-V variable, but not when speaking of color components) (internal issue 175). * Forced patch version to always be 0 in the header. Add a "VK_API_VERSION_<major>_<minor>" macro for people to use to do the right thing. Add a VK_HEADER_VERSION which captures the header release number independent of the spec patch number (internal issue 176). * Correct description of slink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo::pname:pName to "a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string" (internal issue #197). Other Commits: * Updated DataFormat spec reference to the new date for revision 5 of that spec. * Fixed KEEP option (to retain LaTeX intermediate files) in the Makefile to be included when edited there, as well as set on the command line. * Reserve and add "VK_IMG_filter_cubic" to the registry, and implement script functionality to add and remove validity from existing functions. Includes schema and readme changes. * Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl so push_constants do not have descriptor sets.

Update Log for the Vulkan-Docs repository on Github. This just
summarizes the periodic public updates, not individual commits to the
tree. For the most part, commits on Github are done as single large
patches at the release point, collecting together the resolution of many
Khronos internal and public issues.

2016-03-11 01:33:02 +00:00
* Bump API patch number from 3 to 4 for the first public update to the
spec. Add patch number to the spec title (this will be done
automatically from XML, later).
* Fixes for numerous editorial issues. Regularize descriptions of
variable-length array queries. Properly tag enumerants so they come
out in the right font (many were mislabeled in usage tags in vk.xml,
or not tagged). Spelling and markup corrections (public issue 4).
* Fix typos and clearly separate description of different types of
memory areas (public issue 5).
* Use standards-compliant preprocessor guard symbols on headers
(public issue 7).
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.

* Make flink:vkCmdUpdateBuffer pname:dataSize limit consistent (public
issue 65).
* Add VK_KHR_mirror_clamp_to_edge extension to core API branch, as an

* Cleanup invariance language inherited from the GL specification to
not refer to nonexistent (GL-specific) state (internal issue 111).

not be the "base offset within the index buffer" but rather the
"value added to the vertex index before indexing into the vertex
buffer" (internal issue 118).
* Fix drawing chapter in the "Programmable Primitive Shading" section
where it described categories of drawing commands. It referenced
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed twice. Replace the second reference with

Change log for March 10, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.6 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 6 for this update. Github Issues: * Define 'invocation group' for compute and graphics shaders. Cleanup definition and use of 'workgroup', and add glossary entries (public issue 1). * Various minor editorial fixes (public issue 33). * Clarify locations for block members in the &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; section (public issues 80, 81). * Remove discussion of return codes from flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties and flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements, which don't return values (public issue 82). * Allow flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect and flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect pname:drawCount of 0, as well as 1, when the multiDrawIndirect feature is not supported (public issue 88). * Remove confusing wording in the &lt;&lt;features-limits,Limits>> section describing the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits pname:minTexelBufferOffsetAlignment, pname:minUniformBufferOffsetAlignment, and pname:minStorageBufferOffsetAlignment members as both minimums and maximums (public issue 91). * Clarified that only the RGB components should be affected in places where sRGB is referred to in the spec, such as ASTC formats. Minor re-wording to avoid "color space" when actively incorrect, now that we refer to the Data Format Spec which actually makes a distinction between color space and transfer function (public issue 94). * Treat pname:pPropertyCount == 0 consistently in flink:vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties (public issue 99) * Cleanup minor editorial issues in chapters 14-17 (public issue 100). * Clarify definition of flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 101). * Define the flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties pname:pLayerName parameter to be a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string (public issue 101). * Rearrange "Missing information" references in mandatory format tables (public issue 101). * Clarify that the enumerated extensions returned by flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties will only include extensions provided by the platform or extensions implemented in implicitly enabled layers (public issue 101). * Miscellaneous editorial fixes. Include the Vulkan spec patch number in the PDF title. Fix label on &lt;&lt;fig-non-strict-lines,Non strict lines>> diagram. Use more easily distinguished symbols in tables in the &lt;&lt;features-required-format-support,Required Format Support>> section. Don't require FQDNs used as layer names be encoded in lower case if not possible, in the &lt;&lt;extensions-naming-conventions, Extension and Layer Naming Conventions>> section (public issues 101, 119, 121). Internal Issues: * Fixed excessive spacing in tables in XHTML (internal issue 18). * Clarify that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT applies to secondary command buffers. Previously spec only referred to the members of pname:pCommandBuffers being affected by this bit. Added a separate slink:VkSubmitInfo Valid Usage restriction specifying that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT also applies to any secondary command buffers that are recorded into the primary command buffers in pname:pCommandBuffers (internal issue 106). * Clarify that slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo::pname:pEnabledFeatures can be NULL (internal issue 117). * Remove "the value of" where it is redundant (e.g. speaking of an API parameter, struct member, or SPIR-V variable, but not when speaking of color components) (internal issue 175). * Forced patch version to always be 0 in the header. Add a "VK_API_VERSION_<major>_<minor>" macro for people to use to do the right thing. Add a VK_HEADER_VERSION which captures the header release number independent of the spec patch number (internal issue 176). * Correct description of slink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo::pname:pName to "a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string" (internal issue #197). Other Commits: * Updated DataFormat spec reference to the new date for revision 5 of that spec. * Fixed KEEP option (to retain LaTeX intermediate files) in the Makefile to be included when edited there, as well as set on the command line. * Reserve and add "VK_IMG_filter_cubic" to the registry, and implement script functionality to add and remove validity from existing functions. Includes schema and readme changes. * Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl so push_constants do not have descriptor sets.

changed in the core spec. Fix name of a member in the description of
sname:sname:VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo (public issues 8,
13).

Change log for April 15, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.10 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 10 for this update. Github Issues: * Slightly tweak the <<memory-allocation,Host Memory>> allocator language so that an application wrapping the standard C alloc/free/realloc functions is still correct - the previous language was too strong with regards to freeing memory. Also made certain scenarios clearer - an implementation may now continue without error if an allocation failed and it is able to continue correctly (public issue 21). * Require that etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set when the corresponding etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT is used, in the <<sparsememory-miptail,Mip Tail Regions>> section and related commands flink:vkCreateBuffer and flink:vkCreateImage (public issue 84). * Update the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> chapter to clarify interactions between optional features and dynamic state for the pname:depthBiasClamp and pname:wideLines features (public issue 89). * Describe the code:WorkgroupSize builtin in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section, and update the <<compute-shaders,Compute Shaders>> section to further clarify how to set the number of workgroups to execute in a compute shader (public issue 145). * Use the term *image subresource* everywhere instead of *subresource*, except for the special case of *host-accessible subresource*, which may be either an image subresource or buffer range (public issue 120) * Add a note to the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> section about extensibility of structures (Public issue 165). * Fix return code flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR when the timeout parameter is 0 to ename:VK_NOT_READY instead of ename:VK_TIMEOUT (public issue 170). * Fix typo in slink:VkLayerProperties::pname:apiVersion field (public issue 172). Internal Issues: * Fix a few minor internally-detected typos. * Minor formatting tweaks to pseudocode in the <<resources,Resource Creation>> chapter (internal issue 179). * Fix typo in the definition of point sampling for elink:VkCullModeFlagBits (internal issue 268).

Cleanup definition and use of 'workgroup', and add glossary entries (public issue 1). * Various minor editorial fixes (public issue 33). * Clarify locations for block members in the &lt;&lt;interfaces-iointerfaces-locations,Location Assignment>> section (public issue 45). * Editorial fixes for &lt;&lt;commandbuffer-allocation,Command Buffer Allocation>> section (public issues 54, 59). * Clarify behavior of depth test in the &lt;&lt;fragops-depth,Depth Test&gt;&gt; section (public issues 80, 81). * Remove discussion of return codes from flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties and flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements, which don't return values (public issue 82). * Allow flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect and flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect pname:drawCount of 0, as well as 1, when the multiDrawIndirect feature is not supported (public issue 88). * Remove confusing wording in the &lt;&lt;features-limits,Limits>> section describing the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits pname:minTexelBufferOffsetAlignment, pname:minUniformBufferOffsetAlignment, and pname:minStorageBufferOffsetAlignment members as both minimums and maximums (public issue 91). * Clarified that only the RGB components should be affected in places where sRGB is referred to in the spec, such as ASTC formats. Minor re-wording to avoid "color space" when actively incorrect, now that we refer to the Data Format Spec which actually makes a distinction between color space and transfer function (public issue 94). * Treat pname:pPropertyCount == 0 consistently in flink:vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceLayerProperties (public issue 99) * Cleanup minor editorial issues in chapters 14-17 (public issue 100). * Clarify definition of flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties (public issue 101). * Define the flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties pname:pLayerName parameter to be a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string (public issue 101). * Rearrange "Missing information" references in mandatory format tables (public issue 101). * Clarify that the enumerated extensions returned by flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties will only include extensions provided by the platform or extensions implemented in implicitly enabled layers (public issue 101). * Miscellaneous editorial fixes.

Previously spec only referred to the members of pname:pCommandBuffers being affected by this bit. Added a separate slink:VkSubmitInfo Valid Usage restriction specifying that ename:VK_COMMAND_BUFFER_USAGE_ONE_TIME_SUBMIT_BIT also applies to any secondary command buffers that are recorded into the primary command buffers in pname:pCommandBuffers (internal issue 106). * Clarify that slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo::pname:pEnabledFeatures can be NULL (internal issue 117). * Remove "the value of" where it is redundant (e.g. speaking of an API parameter, struct member, or SPIR-V variable, but not when speaking of color components) (internal issue 175). * Forced patch version to always be 0 in the header. Add a "VK_API_VERSION_<major>_<minor>" macro for people to use to do the right thing. Add a VK_HEADER_VERSION which captures the header release number independent of the spec patch number (internal issue 176). * Correct description of slink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo::pname:pName to "a pointer to a null-terminated UTF-8 string" (internal issue #197). Other Commits: * Updated DataFormat spec reference to the new date for revision 5 of that spec. * Fixed KEEP option (to retain LaTeX intermediate files) in the Makefile to be included when edited there, as well as set on the command line. * Reserve and add "VK_IMG_filter_cubic" to the registry, and implement script functionality to add and remove validity from existing functions.

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.

Change log for April 15, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.10 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 10 for this update. Github Issues: * Slightly tweak the <<memory-allocation,Host Memory>> allocator language so that an application wrapping the standard C alloc/free/realloc functions is still correct - the previous language was too strong with regards to freeing memory. Also made certain scenarios clearer - an implementation may now continue without error if an allocation failed and it is able to continue correctly (public issue 21). * Require that etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT is set when the corresponding etext:VK_*_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT is used, in the <<sparsememory-miptail,Mip Tail Regions>> section and related commands flink:vkCreateBuffer and flink:vkCreateImage (public issue 84). * Update the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> chapter to clarify interactions between optional features and dynamic state for the pname:depthBiasClamp and pname:wideLines features (public issue 89). * Describe the code:WorkgroupSize builtin in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section, and update the <<compute-shaders,Compute Shaders>> section to further clarify how to set the number of workgroups to execute in a compute shader (public issue 145). * Use the term *image subresource* everywhere instead of *subresource*, except for the special case of *host-accessible subresource*, which may be either an image subresource or buffer range (public issue 120) * Add a note to the <<features,Features, Limits, and Formats>> section about extensibility of structures (Public issue 165). * Fix return code flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR when the timeout parameter is 0 to ename:VK_NOT_READY instead of ename:VK_TIMEOUT (public issue 170). * Fix typo in slink:VkLayerProperties::pname:apiVersion field (public issue 172). Internal Issues: * Fix a few minor internally-detected typos. * Minor formatting tweaks to pseudocode in the <<resources,Resource Creation>> chapter (internal issue 179). * Fix typo in the definition of point sampling for elink:VkCullModeFlagBits (internal issue 268).

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.

However, the actual content of these pages still needs to be filled in as time allows (public issue 44, but does not close that issue out). * Remove incorrect validity statement for flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements (public issue 85). * Reword the <<features-limits-bufferImageGranularity,bufferImageGranularity>> feature in terms of "aliasing", and clarify that it applies to bindings in the same memory object (public issue 90). * Clarify the relationship of the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits pname:maxViewportDimensions and pname:viewportBoundsRange limits (public issue 92). * Specify sparse unbound texture replacement in the <<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section independently of robust buffer access language (public issue 100). * Add the <<fundamentals-architecture-model,Architecture Model>> section to explain architecture constraints Vulkan has chosen to accept in order to enable portable and performant code (public issue 122). * State that an object must not be destroyed until *all* (not *any*) uses of that object have completed (public issue 123). * Minor editorial cleanup (public issues 129, 134, 146, 148). * Add validity language for layer and extension names to slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo matching that used for slink:VkInstanceCreateInfo (public issue 130). * Clean up terminology for the case when the bits set in one bitmask are a subset of the bits set in another bitmask (public issue 138). * Document that input attachments are UniformConstant not Input, in the <<interfaces-inputattachment,Fragment Input Attachment Interface>> section (public glslang bug 169). Internal Issues: * Add max enum values to "flag bits" enums (internal issue #136). * Clarify language around the various uses of the term "block" in the <<appendix-compressedtex-bc,Block Compressed Image Formats>> section (internal issue #202). * Removed "expand" dependency from <enums> groups in vk.xml and added auto-generation code in the scripts to infer it instead, to ensure consistency. This caused renaming of sname:VkColorSpaceKHR and sname:VkPresentModeKHR etext:BEGIN_RANGE (etc.) tokens, but those tokens are metadata, not part of the API, and the Vulkan WG is OK with this change. This change adds ranges to two additional enums that were missing them due to not defining the "expand" attribute (internal issue 217). * Tweak makefile to generate ref page nroff (.3) files in the right output directory, working around an a2x limitation (internal issue 223). Other Commits: * Add validity requirements for flink:vkCmdCopyQueryPoolResults pname:dstBuffer parameter. * Fix ref page build to generate .3 targets in the right output directory.

Change log for March 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.7 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 7 for this
update.
Github Issues:
* Fix slink:VkSpecializationMapEntry example to avoid C/C++ strict
aliasing issues (public issue 14).
* Clarify the meaning of "matching" in flink:vkCmdBindDescriptorSets
validity language (public issue 33).
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.

generate 404 errors. However, the actual content of these pages
still needs to be filled in as time allows (public issue 44, but
does not close that issue out).
* Remove incorrect validity statement for
flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements (public issue 85).
* Reword the
<<features-limits-bufferImageGranularity,bufferImageGranularity>>
feature in terms of "aliasing", and clarify that it applies to
bindings in the same memory object (public issue 90).
* Clarify the relationship of the slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits
pname:maxViewportDimensions and pname:viewportBoundsRange limits
(public issue 92).
* Specify sparse unbound texture replacement in the
<<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section
independently of robust buffer access language (public issue 100).
* Add the <<fundamentals-architecture-model,Architecture Model>>
section to explain architecture constraints Vulkan has chosen to
accept in order to enable portable and performant code (public issue
122).
* State that an object must not be destroyed until *all* (not *any*)
uses of that object have completed (public issue 123).
* Minor editorial cleanup (public issues 129, 134, 146, 148).
* Add validity language for layer and extension names to
slink:VkDeviceCreateInfo matching that used for
slink:VkInstanceCreateInfo (public issue 130).

the <<interfaces-inputattachment,Fragment Input Attachment
Interface>> section (public glslang bug 169).
Internal Issues:
Change log for April 22, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.11 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 11 for this update.

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

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

compatibility between slink:VkAttachmentDescription pname:initalLayout
members and the corresponding attached framebuffer images (public issue
233).
* Fix Unicode arrows appearing in output instead of relational operators
(public issue 239).
* Correctly describe the required number of elements for
code:TessLevelInner and code:TessLevelOuter arrays in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-In Variables>> section as two and
four, respectively, instead of the other way around, and refer to this
section from the <<tessellation,Tessellation>> chapter (public issue

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.

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 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).

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:

allocation fails due to fragmentation, a new error
ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL, and a Note explaining the situation
(internal issue 309).

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).

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 16, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.27 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 27 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Weaken flink:vkGetPipelineCacheData invariance conditions; previous
conditions were stronger than agreed and can't be guaranteed (public
issue 280).
* Add link to "Vulkan Loader Specification and Architecture Overview"
document to Normative References section (public issue 359).
Internal Issues:
* Be more clear in the <<interfaces-resources-layout-std140, uniform
buffer layout>> section that block offsets can be out of order
(internal issue 396).
* Document that extension authors should add support for their extensions
to the validation layers (internal issue 398).
* Clarify that the valid range of depth clear values should be limited
to the 0..1 range and that copies to depth aspect must also be in this
range (internal issue 412).
* Specify ``a'' vs. ``an'' use in the style guide (internal issue 432).
* Increase the maximum pname:nonCoherentAtomSize value in the
<<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> section from 128 to 256
(internal issue 435).
* Fix vk_platform.h for compiler errors on some Android platforms
(internal issue 441).
* Clarify that slink:VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures::pname:pEnabledFeatures ==
`NULL` disables all features, including the "required" feature
pname:robustBufferAccess (internal issue 479).
Other Issues:
* Expand style guide and make it more self-consistent.
* Use ISO 8601 date format everywhere.
* Emphasise the correct way of using
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR::pname:maxImageCount.
* Added +VK_EXT_validation_flags+ extension for validation flag mechanism.
* Fix an <<credits,author credit>> to include their current employer.
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).

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:
Change log for November 11, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.33 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 33 for this update. Github Issues: * Added implicit external synchronization parameters to vkBegin/EndCommandBuffer, and fixed missing command pool host synchronization from per-command lists (public issue 398). * Started using git tags including the spec release number, such as 'v1.0.32-core', instead of tags including the date of release, such as 'v1.0-core-20161025' (public issue 405). Internal Issues: * Add validity constraint for slink:VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV::pname:handle (internal issue #480). * Add scripts to compare two Vulkan HTML specifications, derived from W3 htmldiff service (internal issue 525). * Relax requirement that memoryTypeBits can't depend on format, to allow it to differ only for depth/stencil formats (internal issue 544). * Add a new generator script to create a simple extension loader for Vulkan based on +vk.xml+ (internal issue 558). * Add the overlooked requirement that buffer and image memory alignment requirements must be a power of two in the <<resources-association,Resource Memory Association>> section (internal issue 569). Other Issues: * Add a naming rule to the style guide for members of extension structures defining array lengths which are the same as array lengths of the core structure they are chained from. * Add a new generator to create a simple extension loader in +src/ext_loader/vulkan_ext.[ch]+ from +vk.xml+. This code can be included in your project, and is expected to be packaged in the Vulkan SDK provided by LunarG in the future.
2016-11-12 11:23:34 +00:00
* Reflowed text of the entire spec using the 'reflow' Makefile target, to
(hopefully) reduce future internal git churn as edits are made and
extensions added in return for one-time pain. This has no perceptible
effect on the spec outputs, but considerable changes on the asciidoc
source (internal issue 367).
Change log for September 30, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.29 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 29 for this update. Github Issues: * Remove redundant constraint on slink:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo::pname:queryFlags (public issue 224). * Fix typo and remove link in Note in the <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (public issue 359). * Fix erroneous validation statement for the pname:layout member of slink:VkComputePipelineCreateInfo (public issue 362). Internal Issues: * Restore long figure captions using asciidoc sidebar blocks, due to restrictions of asciidoc syntax (internal issue 101). * Replace most latexmath equations with comparable markup in straight asciidoc, which significantly improves time required to fully load and process the HTML forms of the Specification. There are known minor font and alignment inconsistencies with MathJax and PDF rendering of latexmath equations. Please do not file github issues about these. We are aware of the inconsistencies and will make refinements over time, while the performance improvements are compelling in at least some major browsers (internal issue 313). * Move handcoded validity statements from +vk.xml+ into the Specification body, easing work in the single-branch model. Specify the distinction between these explicit statements, and the implicit validity statements inferred from vk.xml. Validity statements now appear in two blocks for each command and structure - handcoded "Valid Usage" and the implicit "Valid Usage (Implicit)" (internal issue 392). * Add the +returnedonly="false"+ attribute to WSI output structures, removing incorrectly generated implicit validity statements for slink:VkDisplayPropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlanePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayModePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR, slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, and slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures (internal issue 486). * Update slink:VkImageLayout to require the ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT be set for sampled depth/stencil images (internal issue 487). * Use an explicit format specifier string for the date command invocation in the +Makefile+ instead of the shorthand -R option, which doesn't work on BSD and MaxOS X date commands (internal issue 500). Other Issues: * Use the terms ``allocation scope'' and ``extension scope'' instead of just ``scope'', and add them to the glossary.

The cube demo (shipped in the official Khronos SDK) has been updated, and is the example code that we want people to look at for how to use these two extensions (public issues 279, 308, and 311). * Clarify the formats for which the slink:VkClearColorValue pname:float32 member is used. Also clean up related language for flink:vkCmdBlitImage (public issue 369). * Reword the <<invariance, Invariance>> appendix chapter to better match Vulkan terminology (public issue 372). Internal Issues: * Update slink:VkMemoryRequirements to not require a host_visible memory type exists that can be bound to sparse buffers (internal issue 494). * Modify the <<features-supported-sample-counts,Supported Sample Counts>> language to allow multisampled depth-stencil images (internal issue 521).

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).

-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for November 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.35 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 35 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Document in the <<memory-device-hostaccess,Host Access>> section that
mapping and unmapping does not invalidate or flush the mapped memory
(public issues 27, 126).
* Redefine the entire <<synchronization>> chapter in terms of consistent
and well defined terminology, that's called out at the start of the
chapter. This terminology is applied equally to all synchronization
types, including subpass dependencies, submissions, and much of the
implicit ordering stuff dotted around the spec. Key terms are laid out
in the <<synchronization-dependencies,Execution and Memory
Dependencies>> section at the top of the rewritten chapter (public
issues 128, 131, 132, 217, 299, 300, 302, 306, 322, 346, 347, 371, 407).
* Specify order of submission for batches in the
<<vkQueueSubmit,vkQueueSubmit>> and
<<vkQueueBindSparse,vkQueueBindSparse>> commands (public issue 371).
* Add valid usage statements to each of the WSI extension sections
indicating that the WSI-specific structure parameters must be valid, and
remove automatically generated valid usage statements now covered by the
manual sections (public issue 383).
* Clarify render pass compatibility for flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands (public
issue 390).
Internal Issues:
* Update +vk.xml+ to make previously explicit valid usage statements for
<<vkDebugReportMessageEXT,vkDebugReportMessageEXT>> implicit instead
(internal issue 553).
* Add valid usage statement for slink:VkCreateImageInfo preventing
creation of 1D sparse images (internal issue 573).
* Fix Python scripts to always read/write files in utf-8 encoding, and a
logic error in reflib.py which could cause a fatal error for
malstructured asciidoc (internal issues 578, 586).

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

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.
