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

Change log for 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 March 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.70 spec update: * Vulkan 1.1 initial release. Bump API patch number and header version number to 70 for this update. The patch number will be used for both Vulkan 1.1 and Vulkan 1.0 updates, and continues to increment continuously from the previous Vulkan 1.0.69 update. NOTE: We are not publishing an updated 1.0.70 specification, or 1.1 reference pages, along with 1.1.70. There are still minor issues to work out with those build targets. However, we will soon generate all three types of documents as part of the regular spec update cycle. NOTE: The GitHub KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs repository now maintains the current specification in the `master` branch. The `1.0` branch is out of date and will not be maintained, since we will be generating both 1.1 and 1.0 specifications from the `master` branch in the future. Github Issues: * Clarify how mapped memory ranges are flushed in flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges (public issue 127). * Specify that <<synchronization-pipeline-stages, Pipeline Stages>> are a list of tasks that each command performs, rather than necessarily being discrete pieces of hardware that one task flows through. Add a "`synchronization command`" pipeline type which all synchronization command execute (it's just TOP + BOTTOM), with an explanatory note (public issue 554). Internal Issues: * Regenerate all images used in the spec in Inkscape with a consistent look-and-feel, and adjust image size attributes so they're all legible, and not too large with respect to the spec body text (internal issue 701). * Document in the <<extensions,extensions>> appendix and in the style guide that `KHX` extensions are no longer supported or used in the Vulkan 1.1 timeframe (internal issue 714). * Remove the leftover equations_temp directory after PDF build completes (internal issue 925). * Update the <<credits, Credits (Informative)>> appendix to include contributors to Vulkan 1.1, and to list them according to the API version(s) they contributed to (internal issue 987). * Add a NOTE to the introduction explaining that interfaces defined by extensions which were promoted to Vulkan 1.1 are now expressed as aliases of the Vulkan 1.1 type (internal issue 991). * Instrument spec source conditionals so spec can be built with 1.1 features, extensions promoted to 1.1, or both (internal issues 992, 998). * Modify the XML schema and tools to support explicit aliasing of types, structures, and commands, and use this to express the promotion of 1.0 extensions to 1.1 core features, by making the extension interfaces aliases of the core features they were promoted to. Mark up promoted interfaces to allow still generating 1.0 + extension specifications (internal issue 991). * Platform names, along with corresponding preprocessor symbols to enable extensions specific to those platforms, are now reserved in vk.xml using the <platform> tag. Update the registry schema and schema specification to match (internal issue 1011). * Updated the <<textures-texel-replacement, Texel Replacement>> section to clarify that reads from invalid texels for image resources result in undefined values (internal issue 1014). * Modify description of patch version so it continues to increment across minor version changes (internal issue 1033). * Clarify and unify language describing physical device-level core and extension functionality in the <<fundamentals-validusage-extensions, Valid Usage for Extensions>>, <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions, Extending Physical Device From Device Extensions>> <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> sections and for flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that instance-level functionality is tied to the loader, and independent of the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and associated with device extensions; physical devices are treated more uniformly between core and extensions; and instance and physical versions can be different (internal issue 1048). * Updated the <<commandbuffers-lifecycle, Command Buffer Lifecycle>> section to clarify the ability for pending command buffers to transition to the invalid state after submission, and add a command buffer lifecycle diagram (internal issue 1050). * Clarify that some flink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo parameters are ignored when push descriptors are not supported (internal issue 1054). * Specify that flink:vkCreateImage will return an error if the image is too large, in a NOTE in the slink:VkImageFormatProperties description (internal issue 1078). * Remove near-duplicate NOTEs about when to query function pointers dynamically in the <<initialization, Initialization>> chapter and replace by extending the NOTE in the <<fundamentals-abi, Application Binary Interface>> section (internal issue 1085). * Restore missing references to "`Sparse Resource Features`" in the flink:VkBufferCreateFlagBits description (internal issue 1086). * Tidy up definitions of descriptor types in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification, the <<descriptorsets, Resource Descriptors>> section and its subsections, and the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> for consistency, reduction of duplicate information, and removal of GLSL correspondance/examples (internal issue 1090). * Correctly describe code:PrimitiveId as an Input for tessellation control and evaluation shaders, not an Output (internal issue 1109). * Relax the requirements on chroma offsets for nearest filtering in <<textures-implict-reconstruction, Implicit Reconstruction>> (internal issue 1116). Other Issues: * Clarify the intended relationship between specification language and certain terms defined in the Khronos Intellectual Property Rights policy. Specific changes include: ** Rewrote IP/Copyright preamble and introduction to better agree with normative language both as laid out in the introduction, and the Khronos IPR policy. ** Added notion of fully informative sections, which are now tagged with "`(Informative)`" in their titles. ** Removed non-normative uses of the phrase "`not required`" ** Clarified the distinction between terms "`optional`" and "`not required:`" as they relate to the IPR Policy, and updated specification text to use terms consistent with the intent. ** Reduced additions to RFC 2119, and ensured the specification agreed with the leaner language. ** Removed the terms "`hardware`", "`software`", "`CPU`", and "`GPU`" from normative text. ** Moved several paragraphs that should not have been normative to informative notes. ** Clarified a number of definitions in the Glossary. ** Updated the document writing guide to match new terminology changes. * Explicitly state in the <<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime-acquire, application memory lifetime>> language that that for objects other than descriptor sets, a slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout object used in the creation of another object (such as slink:VkPipelineLayout or slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR) is only in use during the creation of that object and can be safely destroyed afterwards. * Updated the <<textures-scale-factor, Scale Factor Operation>> section to use the ratio of anisotropy, rather than the integer sample rate, to perform the LOD calculation. The spec still allows use of the sample rate as the value used to calculate the LOD, but no longer requires it. * Update `vulkan_ext.c` to include all platform-related definitions from the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into platform-specific and non-platform-specific files. * Fix bogus anchor name in the <<commandbuffers, Command Buffers>> chapter which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter. There were no reference to this anchor, fortunately. * Add valid usage statement for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet and slink:VkCopyDescriptorSet requiring that the slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout used to allocate the source and destination sets must not have been destroyed at the time flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets is called. * Document mapping of subgroup barrier functions to SPIR-V, and clarify a place where subgroupBarrier sounds like it's execution-only in the standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification. * Use an HTML stylesheet derived from the Asciidoctor `colony` theme, with the default Arial font family replaced by the sans-serif Noto font family. * Numerous minor updates to README.adoc, build scripts, Makefiles, and registry and style guide specifications to support Vulkan 1.1 outputs, use them as defaults, and remove mention of `KHX` extensions, which are no longer supported. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_vertex_attrib_divisor`

Change log for July 1, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.19 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 19 for this update. Github Issues: * Clarified how flink:vkGetImageSubresourceLayout interacts with image layouts (public issue 247). * Remove ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED from valid usage rule for slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier::pname:oldLayout. It is only valid if it is the current layout (public issue 248). * Modify valid usage for flink:vkBindBufferMemory so implementations are free to require a different backing memory size than the buffer size (public issue 251). * Clarify that filtering rules for flink:vkCmdBlitImage always apply, and are usually no-ops if the formats are the same (public issue 253). * Remove 'non-sparse' from description of flink:vkGetBufferMemoryRequirements and flink:vkGetImageMemoryRequirements (public issue 257). * Remove ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT error code from flink:vkCreateDevice (public issue 259). * Change "must not" to "should not" in constraint on when flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR is called in the +VK_KHR_swapchain+ branch (public issue 262). * Change type of flink:vkCmdUpdateBuffer::pname:pData from basetype:uint32_t* to basetype:void* (public issue 263). * Change should: to must: in description of where additional segments are placed in the <<[tessellation-tessellator-spacing,Tessellator Spacing>> section (public issue 264). Internal Issues: * Normalize the language of all the compute shader built-ins in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables,Built-in Variables>> section (internal issue 323). * Remove definition of presentation engine internal queue lengths associated with ename:VK_PRESENT_MODE_FIFO_KHR and ename:VK_PRESENT_MODE_FIFO_RELAXED_KHR in the <<Window System Integration,wsi>> chapter (internal issue 374). * The language of a Note was too broad, and implied that loaders for a given OS would statically export functions for WSI extensions that weren't relevant to (or supported on) the OS. Also, removed "Khronos-provided" since the Android loader isn't (internal issue 380) Other Commits: * Add ename:VK_INCOMPLETE to list of return values for flink:vkGetPipelineCacheData. Spec says this value is returnable, but it wasn't listed in the error codes. * Fix "correponds" typo in member definitions for slink:VkSubpassDescription.

Change log for March 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.70 spec update: * Vulkan 1.1 initial release. Bump API patch number and header version number to 70 for this update. The patch number will be used for both Vulkan 1.1 and Vulkan 1.0 updates, and continues to increment continuously from the previous Vulkan 1.0.69 update. NOTE: We are not publishing an updated 1.0.70 specification, or 1.1 reference pages, along with 1.1.70. There are still minor issues to work out with those build targets. However, we will soon generate all three types of documents as part of the regular spec update cycle. NOTE: The GitHub KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs repository now maintains the current specification in the `master` branch. The `1.0` branch is out of date and will not be maintained, since we will be generating both 1.1 and 1.0 specifications from the `master` branch in the future. Github Issues: * Clarify how mapped memory ranges are flushed in flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges (public issue 127). * Specify that <<synchronization-pipeline-stages, Pipeline Stages>> are a list of tasks that each command performs, rather than necessarily being discrete pieces of hardware that one task flows through. Add a "`synchronization command`" pipeline type which all synchronization command execute (it's just TOP + BOTTOM), with an explanatory note (public issue 554). Internal Issues: * Regenerate all images used in the spec in Inkscape with a consistent look-and-feel, and adjust image size attributes so they're all legible, and not too large with respect to the spec body text (internal issue 701). * Document in the <<extensions,extensions>> appendix and in the style guide that `KHX` extensions are no longer supported or used in the Vulkan 1.1 timeframe (internal issue 714). * Remove the leftover equations_temp directory after PDF build completes (internal issue 925). * Update the <<credits, Credits (Informative)>> appendix to include contributors to Vulkan 1.1, and to list them according to the API version(s) they contributed to (internal issue 987). * Add a NOTE to the introduction explaining that interfaces defined by extensions which were promoted to Vulkan 1.1 are now expressed as aliases of the Vulkan 1.1 type (internal issue 991). * Instrument spec source conditionals so spec can be built with 1.1 features, extensions promoted to 1.1, or both (internal issues 992, 998). * Modify the XML schema and tools to support explicit aliasing of types, structures, and commands, and use this to express the promotion of 1.0 extensions to 1.1 core features, by making the extension interfaces aliases of the core features they were promoted to. Mark up promoted interfaces to allow still generating 1.0 + extension specifications (internal issue 991). * Platform names, along with corresponding preprocessor symbols to enable extensions specific to those platforms, are now reserved in vk.xml using the <platform> tag. Update the registry schema and schema specification to match (internal issue 1011). * Updated the <<textures-texel-replacement, Texel Replacement>> section to clarify that reads from invalid texels for image resources result in undefined values (internal issue 1014). * Modify description of patch version so it continues to increment across minor version changes (internal issue 1033). * Clarify and unify language describing physical device-level core and extension functionality in the <<fundamentals-validusage-extensions, Valid Usage for Extensions>>, <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions, Extending Physical Device From Device Extensions>> <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> sections and for flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that instance-level functionality is tied to the loader, and independent of the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and associated with device extensions; physical devices are treated more uniformly between core and extensions; and instance and physical versions can be different (internal issue 1048). * Updated the <<commandbuffers-lifecycle, Command Buffer Lifecycle>> section to clarify the ability for pending command buffers to transition to the invalid state after submission, and add a command buffer lifecycle diagram (internal issue 1050). * Clarify that some flink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo parameters are ignored when push descriptors are not supported (internal issue 1054). * Specify that flink:vkCreateImage will return an error if the image is too large, in a NOTE in the slink:VkImageFormatProperties description (internal issue 1078). * Remove near-duplicate NOTEs about when to query function pointers dynamically in the <<initialization, Initialization>> chapter and replace by extending the NOTE in the <<fundamentals-abi, Application Binary Interface>> section (internal issue 1085). * Restore missing references to "`Sparse Resource Features`" in the flink:VkBufferCreateFlagBits description (internal issue 1086). * Tidy up definitions of descriptor types in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification, the <<descriptorsets, Resource Descriptors>> section and its subsections, and the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> for consistency, reduction of duplicate information, and removal of GLSL correspondance/examples (internal issue 1090). * Correctly describe code:PrimitiveId as an Input for tessellation control and evaluation shaders, not an Output (internal issue 1109). * Relax the requirements on chroma offsets for nearest filtering in <<textures-implict-reconstruction, Implicit Reconstruction>> (internal issue 1116). Other Issues: * Clarify the intended relationship between specification language and certain terms defined in the Khronos Intellectual Property Rights policy. Specific changes include: ** Rewrote IP/Copyright preamble and introduction to better agree with normative language both as laid out in the introduction, and the Khronos IPR policy. ** Added notion of fully informative sections, which are now tagged with "`(Informative)`" in their titles. ** Removed non-normative uses of the phrase "`not required`" ** Clarified the distinction between terms "`optional`" and "`not required:`" as they relate to the IPR Policy, and updated specification text to use terms consistent with the intent. ** Reduced additions to RFC 2119, and ensured the specification agreed with the leaner language. ** Removed the terms "`hardware`", "`software`", "`CPU`", and "`GPU`" from normative text. ** Moved several paragraphs that should not have been normative to informative notes. ** Clarified a number of definitions in the Glossary. ** Updated the document writing guide to match new terminology changes. * Explicitly state in the <<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime-acquire, application memory lifetime>> language that that for objects other than descriptor sets, a slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout object used in the creation of another object (such as slink:VkPipelineLayout or slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR) is only in use during the creation of that object and can be safely destroyed afterwards. * Updated the <<textures-scale-factor, Scale Factor Operation>> section to use the ratio of anisotropy, rather than the integer sample rate, to perform the LOD calculation. The spec still allows use of the sample rate as the value used to calculate the LOD, but no longer requires it. * Update `vulkan_ext.c` to include all platform-related definitions from the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into platform-specific and non-platform-specific files. * Fix bogus anchor name in the <<commandbuffers, Command Buffers>> chapter which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter. There were no reference to this anchor, fortunately. * Add valid usage statement for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet and slink:VkCopyDescriptorSet requiring that the slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout used to allocate the source and destination sets must not have been destroyed at the time flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets is called. * Document mapping of subgroup barrier functions to SPIR-V, and clarify a place where subgroupBarrier sounds like it's execution-only in the standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification. * Use an HTML stylesheet derived from the Asciidoctor `colony` theme, with the default Arial font family replaced by the sans-serif Noto font family. * Numerous minor updates to README.adoc, build scripts, Makefiles, and registry and style guide specifications to support Vulkan 1.1 outputs, use them as defaults, and remove mention of `KHX` extensions, which are no longer supported. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_vertex_attrib_divisor`

Change log for February 27, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.42 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 42 for this update (the first anniversary edition). Github Issues: * Changed asciidoctor macros so cross-page links in the standalone reference pages function properly (public issue 462). Internal Issues: * Clarified host visibility discussion for slink:VkMemoryType, flink:vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges, elink:VkAccessFlagBits, and the <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions,Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> section, removing duplicated information and adding a central definition in the access types section (internal issue 552). * Change description of slink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfacePresentModesKHR::pname:pPresentModes to return an array of values, not structures (internal issue 699). New Extensions: * Add a NOTE to the <<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> chapter describing the experimental status of `KHX` extensions. * Add new Khronos, Khronos Experimental, and vendor Vulkan extensions for release at GDC: ** VK_KHR_descriptor_update_template ** VK_KHR_push_descriptor ** VK_KHX_device_group ** VK_KHX_device_group_creation ** VK_KHX_external_memory ** VK_KHX_external_memory_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_memory_fd ** VK_KHX_external_memory_win32 ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_fd ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_win32 ** VK_KHX_multiview ** VK_KHX_win32_keyed_mutex ** VK_EXT_discard_rectangles ** VK_MVK_ios_surface ** VK_MVK_macos_surface ** VK_NVX_multiview_per_view_attributes ** VK_NV_clip_space_w_scaling ** VK_NV_geometry_shader_passthrough ** VK_NV_sample_mask_override_coverage ** VK_NV_viewport_array2 ** VK_NV_viewport_swizzle * Add new GLSL vendor extensions to support new builtin variables: ** GL_EXT_device_group ** GL_EXT_multiview

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

The patch number will be used for both Vulkan 1.1 and Vulkan 1.0 updates, and continues to increment continuously from the previous Vulkan 1.0.69 update. NOTE: We are not publishing an updated 1.0.70 specification, or 1.1 reference pages, along with 1.1.70. There are still minor issues to work out with those build targets. However, we will soon generate all three types of documents as part of the regular spec update cycle. NOTE: The GitHub KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs repository now maintains the current specification in the `master` branch. The `1.0` branch is out of date and will not be maintained, since we will be generating both 1.1 and 1.0 specifications from the `master` branch in the future. Github Issues: * Clarify how mapped memory ranges are flushed in flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges (public issue 127). * Specify that <<synchronization-pipeline-stages, Pipeline Stages>> are a list of tasks that each command performs, rather than necessarily being discrete pieces of hardware that one task flows through. Add a "`synchronization command`" pipeline type which all synchronization command execute (it's just TOP + BOTTOM), with an explanatory note (public issue 554). Internal Issues: * Regenerate all images used in the spec in Inkscape with a consistent look-and-feel, and adjust image size attributes so they're all legible, and not too large with respect to the spec body text (internal issue 701). * Document in the <<extensions,extensions>> appendix and in the style guide that `KHX` extensions are no longer supported or used in the Vulkan 1.1 timeframe (internal issue 714). * Remove the leftover equations_temp directory after PDF build completes (internal issue 925). * Update the <<credits, Credits (Informative)>> appendix to include contributors to Vulkan 1.1, and to list them according to the API version(s) they contributed to (internal issue 987). * Add a NOTE to the introduction explaining that interfaces defined by extensions which were promoted to Vulkan 1.1 are now expressed as aliases of the Vulkan 1.1 type (internal issue 991). * Instrument spec source conditionals so spec can be built with 1.1 features, extensions promoted to 1.1, or both (internal issues 992, 998). * Modify the XML schema and tools to support explicit aliasing of types, structures, and commands, and use this to express the promotion of 1.0 extensions to 1.1 core features, by making the extension interfaces aliases of the core features they were promoted to. Mark up promoted interfaces to allow still generating 1.0 + extension specifications (internal issue 991). * Platform names, along with corresponding preprocessor symbols to enable extensions specific to those platforms, are now reserved in vk.xml using the <platform> tag. Update the registry schema and schema specification to match (internal issue 1011). * Updated the <<textures-texel-replacement, Texel Replacement>> section to clarify that reads from invalid texels for image resources result in undefined values (internal issue 1014). * Modify description of patch version so it continues to increment across minor version changes (internal issue 1033). * Clarify and unify language describing physical device-level core and extension functionality in the <<fundamentals-validusage-extensions, Valid Usage for Extensions>>, <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions, Extending Physical Device From Device Extensions>> <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> sections and for flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that instance-level functionality is tied to the loader, and independent of the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and associated with device extensions; physical devices are treated more uniformly between core and extensions; and instance and physical versions can be different (internal issue 1048). * Updated the <<commandbuffers-lifecycle, Command Buffer Lifecycle>> section to clarify the ability for pending command buffers to transition to the invalid state after submission, and add a command buffer lifecycle diagram (internal issue 1050). * Clarify that some flink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo parameters are ignored when push descriptors are not supported (internal issue 1054). * Specify that flink:vkCreateImage will return an error if the image is too large, in a NOTE in the slink:VkImageFormatProperties description (internal issue 1078). * Remove near-duplicate NOTEs about when to query function pointers dynamically in the <<initialization, Initialization>> chapter and replace by extending the NOTE in the <<fundamentals-abi, Application Binary Interface>> section (internal issue 1085). * Restore missing references to "`Sparse Resource Features`" in the flink:VkBufferCreateFlagBits description (internal issue 1086). * Tidy up definitions of descriptor types in the `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification, the <<descriptorsets, Resource Descriptors>> section and its subsections, and the <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> for consistency, reduction of duplicate information, and removal of GLSL correspondance/examples (internal issue 1090). * Correctly describe code:PrimitiveId as an Input for tessellation control and evaluation shaders, not an Output (internal issue 1109). * Relax the requirements on chroma offsets for nearest filtering in <<textures-implict-reconstruction, Implicit Reconstruction>> (internal issue 1116). Other Issues: * Clarify the intended relationship between specification language and certain terms defined in the Khronos Intellectual Property Rights policy. Specific changes include: ** Rewrote IP/Copyright preamble and introduction to better agree with normative language both as laid out in the introduction, and the Khronos IPR policy. ** Added notion of fully informative sections, which are now tagged with "`(Informative)`" in their titles. ** Removed non-normative uses of the phrase "`not required`" ** Clarified the distinction between terms "`optional`" and "`not required:`" as they relate to the IPR Policy, and updated specification text to use terms consistent with the intent. ** Reduced additions to RFC 2119, and ensured the specification agreed with the leaner language. ** Removed the terms "`hardware`", "`software`", "`CPU`", and "`GPU`" from normative text. ** Moved several paragraphs that should not have been normative to informative notes. ** Clarified a number of definitions in the Glossary. ** Updated the document writing guide to match new terminology changes. * Explicitly state in the <<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime-acquire, application memory lifetime>> language that that for objects other than descriptor sets, a slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout object used in the creation of another object (such as slink:VkPipelineLayout or slink:VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR) is only in use during the creation of that object and can be safely destroyed afterwards. * Updated the <<textures-scale-factor, Scale Factor Operation>> section to use the ratio of anisotropy, rather than the integer sample rate, to perform the LOD calculation. The spec still allows use of the sample rate as the value used to calculate the LOD, but no longer requires it. * Update `vulkan_ext.c` to include all platform-related definitions from the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into platform-specific and non-platform-specific files. * Fix bogus anchor name in the <<commandbuffers, Command Buffers>> chapter which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter. There were no reference to this anchor, fortunately. * Add valid usage statement for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet and slink:VkCopyDescriptorSet requiring that the slink:VkDescriptorSetLayout used to allocate the source and destination sets must not have been destroyed at the time flink:vkUpdateDescriptorSets is called. * Document mapping of subgroup barrier functions to SPIR-V, and clarify a place where subgroupBarrier sounds like it's execution-only in the standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification. * Use an HTML stylesheet derived from the Asciidoctor `colony` theme, with the default Arial font family replaced by the sans-serif Noto font family. * Numerous minor updates to README.adoc, build scripts, Makefiles, and registry and style guide specifications to support Vulkan 1.1 outputs, use them as defaults, and remove mention of `KHX` extensions, which are no longer supported. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_vertex_attrib_divisor`

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.
