Change log for January 23, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.39 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 39 for this update. Github Issues: * Clarified that only accesses via the specified buffer/image subresource ranges are included in the access scopes (public issue 306). * Add missing valid usage statements for flink:vkCreateComputePipelines and flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines (public issue 427). Internal Issues: * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from offsets are handled (internal issue 355). * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+, +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+ extensions (internal issue 448). * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449). * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547). * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal issue 607). * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback (internal issue 613). * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices (internal issue 631). Other Issues: * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective source and destination images. * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to flink:vkAcquireNextImage. * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set. * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of 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. * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common color spaces.

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.

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).

Internal Issues: * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from offsets are handled (internal issue 355). * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+, +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+ extensions (internal issue 448). * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449). * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547). * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal issue 607). * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback (internal issue 613). * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices (internal issue 631). Other Issues: * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective source and destination images. * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to flink:vkAcquireNextImage. * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set. * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of 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. * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common color spaces.

RESOLUTION: By calling flink:vkCreateSharedSwapchainsKHR.
An earlier resolution used flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR, chaining multiple
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR structures through pname:pNext.
In order to allow each swapchain to also allow other extension structs, a
level of indirection was used: slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR::pname:pNext
pointed to a different structure, which had both an pname:sType/pname:pNext
for additional extensions, and also had a pointer to the next
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR structure.
The number of swapchains to be created could only be found by walking this
linked list of alternating structures, and the pSwapchains out parameter was
reinterpreted to be an array of slink:VkSwapchainKHR handles.
Another option considered was a method to specify a ``shared'' swapchain
when creating a new swapchain, such that groups of swapchains using the same
images could be built up one at a time.
This was deemed unusable because drivers need to know all of the displays an
image will be used on when determining which internal formats and layouts to
use for that image.

Change log for February 10, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.40 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 40 for this update. * There is a major build change in this release. We are now using the Ruby-based ``asciidoctor'' implementation, rather than the Python-based ``asciidoc'' implementation, to process the specification. While the actual specification markup changes were minimal, this requires a new set of build tools and a very different installation process, especially because we now use an experimental direct-to-PDF backend for Asciidoctor instead of Docbook->dblatex->PDF. It is no longer possible to build the Specification using asciidoc. See doc/specs/vulkan/README.adoc for some guidance on installing the new toolchain components. * There are some minor rendering issues in the PDF output due to teething problems with the asciidoctor toolchain, especially with mathematical equations. We are aware of these and working on them. Github Issues: * Updated sample code for the <<sparsememory-examples-basic,sparse resource binding example>> (public issue 97). * Modify line and point clipping behavior in the <<vertexpostproc-clipping, Primitive Clipping>> section to allow for pop-free behavior. The ability to check for which behavior is implemented may be added a future feature or extension (public issue 113). * Unify the discussions of implicit ordering throughout the spec, in particular in the new sections <<drawing-primitive-order, Primitive Order>>, <<primrast-order, Rasterization Order>>, and <<synchronization-implicit, Implicit Synchronization Guarantees>>; the discussion of <<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>>; and references elsewhere to these sections (public issue 133). * Clarify \<\<descriptorsets-compatibility,Pipeline Layout Compatibility>> language and introduce the term ``identically defined'' (public issue 164). * Add a dependency to the +VK_EXT_debug_marker+ extension that's needed to reuse the object type enum from +VK_EXT_debug_report+, and moves the definition of that enum into +VK_EXT_debug_report+ where it should be (public issue 409). * Remove redundant valid usage statement from slink:VkImageBlit (public issue 421). * Update GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl to allow the ternary operator to result in a specialization constant (public issue 424). * Fix valid usage for flink:VkPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo (public issue 426). * Correct typo in New Objects list for <<VK_EXT_debug_report>> (public issue 447). Internal Issues: * Moved to asciidoctor for spec builds (internal issue 121). * Update style guide to describe where to put new extensions-specific asciidoc files, and what to name them (internal issue 626). * Add src/spec/indexExt.py to autogenerate registry index entries linking into the 1.0-extensions specification, instead of maintaining the index manually. (internal issue 642). * Autogenerate extension dependencies and lists of all extensions and all KHR extensions from the "supported" attributes in +vk.xml+. Execute +make config/extDependency.sh+ from +doc/specs/vulkan+ when a supported extension is added to vk.xml, to regenerate the dependency script. The consequence is that specifying a single extension to the +makeExt+ script will automatically enable all extensions it depends on as well, and that the +makeAllExts+ and +makeKHR+ scripts do not need to be updated when a new extension is supported (internal issue 648). * Put extension appendices all at the same asciidoc section level, so KHR WSI extensions show up in the HTML index (internal issue 648). Other Issues: * Imbed images in the generated HTML specs instead of loading them from the images/ directory. * Fix missing EXT in extension name (ename:VK_EXT_SWAPCHAIN_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENSION_NAME). * Add new +VK_EXT_SMPTE_2086_metadata+ extension. * In the <<platformCreateSurface_xlib,Xlib Surface>> section of the +VK_KHR_xlib_surface+ specification, add language warning users that they always need to call code:XinitThreads. * Use the term "presentable image" (rather than "swapchain image") consistently in +VK_KHR_swapchain+ and related extensions, and add a glossary term defining it. * Relocate the valid usage for samples of flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatProperties2KHR::pname:pFormatInfo to be below the flink:VkPhysicalDeviceSparseImageFormatInfo2KHR structure.

Change log for August 26, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.25 spec update: * Bump API patch number and header version number to 25 for this update. * Structurally change the specification so that multiple extensions are included in the +1.0+ git branch, and specifications will include or not include those extensions at build time based on options passed to the Makefile. See +doc/specs/vulkan/README.html+ and the ``Layers and Extensions'' section of the ``Vulkan Documentation and Extensions'' document for more information on this change. * Register and publish new extensions in the single-branch form: ** +VK_NV_external_memory_capabilities+ ** +VK_NV_external_memory+ ** +VK_NV_external_memory_win32+ ** +VK_NV_win32_keyed_mutex+ Github Issues: * Clarify description of GetInstanceProcAddr and GetDeviceProcAddr (public issue 212). * Add SPIR-V <<textures-operation-validation, instruction validation>> for single-sampled images (public issue 316). * Fix spelling of ``tesselation'' in a few places and note it as an exception to the American spelling rules convention (public issue 327). * Fix Makefile to create output directory for ``styleguide'' target (public issue 329). * Fix numerous minor issues with incorrectly tags on enumerant names and table titles (public issue 330). * Generate specversion.txt date in UTC time and RFC 2822 format (public issue 335). * Convert link to the SPIR-V Specification for flink:VkShaderModuleCreateInfo into an internal link to the normative reference (public issue 336). * Add ename:VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY error code to flink:vkCreateDebugReportCallbackEXT (public issue 337). Internal Issues: * Update style guide regarding use of code:NULL and dname:VK_NULL_HANDLE (internal issue 393). * Change the definition of latexmath:[$q$] in the <<textures-image-level-selection,texture image level selection>> section to be the index of the maximum defined level for the view, not the number of levels in the view (internal issue 406). * Allow developers to override dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE with their own binary-compatible definition (internal issue 439). * Fix +vk_platform.h+ conditional logic causing compile failure with some Android compilers (internal issue 441). * Implement the single-branch model as described above (internal issue 461).
