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

Change log for February 25, 2015 Vulkan 1.0.4 spec update: * Bump API patch number from 3 to 4 for the first public update to the spec. Add patch number to the spec title (this will be done automatically from XML, later). * Fixes for numerous editorial issues. Regularize descriptions of variable-length array queries. Properly tag enumerants so they come out in the right font (many were mislabeled in usage tags in vk.xml, or not tagged). Spelling and markup corrections (public issue 4). * Fix typos and clearly separate description of different types of memory areas (public issue 5). * Use standards-compliant preprocessor guard symbols on headers (public issue 7). * Note that Github users can't currently set labels on issues, and recommend a fallback approach (public issue 15). * Use latexmath prefix on len= attributes (public issue 29). * Make flink:vkCmdUpdateBuffer pname:dataSize limit consistent (public issue 65). * Add VK_KHR_mirror_clamp_to_edge extension to core API branch, as an optional feature not introducing new commands or enums (internal issue 104). * Cleanup invariance language inherited from the GL specification to not refer to nonexistent (GL-specific) state (internal issue 111). * Modify the flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed pname:vertexOffset definition to not be the "base offset within the index buffer" but rather the "value added to the vertex index before indexing into the vertex buffer" (internal issue 118). * Fix drawing chapter in the "Programmable Primitive Shading" section where it described categories of drawing commands. It referenced flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed twice. Replace the second reference with flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect (internal issue 119). * Typo fixed in <<sparsememory-examples-advanced,Advanced Sparse Resources>> sparse memory example (internal issue 122). * Add flink:VkDisplayPlaneAlphaFlagsKHR to <require> section of VK_KHR_display extension (internal issue 125) * Add missing optional="false,true" to flink:vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements pname:pSparseMemoryRequirementCount parameter (internal issue 132) * Rename ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CREATE_INFO_EXT to ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CALLBACK_CREATE_INFO_EXT (internal issue 133) * Fix a handful of broken cross-references in the <<samplers,Samplers>> chapter (internal issue 134). * Fix "Input Attachement" GLSL example to use correct syntax (internal issue 135). * Update XML schema and documentation to accomodate recently added attributes for validity. Add some introductory material describing design choices and pointing to the public repository to file issues. * Put include of validity in the core spec extensions chapter on its own line, so that asciidoc is happy. * Fix vertexOffset language to specify that it's the value added to the vertex index before indexing into the vertex buffer, not the base offset within the index buffer. * Fix error in the description of flink:vkCmdNextSubpass.
