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). * Add stub reference pages so xrefs to not-yet-written pages don't 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). * 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.

* pname:size is the size, in bytes, of the memory allocation required: for
the resource.
* pname:alignment is the alignment, in bytes, of the offset within the
allocation required: for the resource.
* pname:memoryTypeBits is a bitmask and contains one bit set for every
supported memory type for the resource. Bit `i` is set if and only if
the memory type `i` in the sname:VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties
structure for the physical device is supported for the resource.

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.
