Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
* `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`
-----------------------------------------------------
Note: the 1.0.52 spec wasn't published on github, so the 1.0.53 release
combines both change sets.

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:
* `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
* `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

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).

In order for an application to be compiled to use WSI with a given platform,
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`
2018-03-07 12:18:52 +00:00
it must either:
* #define the appropriate preprocessor symbol prior to including the
`vulkan.h` header file, or
* include `vulkan_core.h` and any native platform headers, followed by the
appropriate platform-specific header.
The preprocessor symbols and platform-specific headers are defined in the
<<boilerplate-wsi-header-table, Window System Extensions and Headers>>
table.
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).

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.

* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the

Change log for October 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.87 spec update:
* Update release number to 87.
Public Issues:
* Merge flink:vkCmdPipelineBarrier self-dependency barrier VUs referring
to the same subpass dependency (public pull request 756).
* Describe default value of `"optional"` attribute in the registry schema
document (public issue 769)
* Fix links in <<VK_NVX_raytracing>> extension (public pull request 805).
* Mark the <<VK_KHR_mir_surface>> extension obsolete (see public issue 814
- does not close this, however).
* Fix missing endif in Image Creation block (public issue 817).
Internal Issues:
* Clarify that the compressed texture formats corresponding to
<<features-features-textureCompressionETC2>>,
<<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR>>, and

feature bits, and may be supported even if the features are not enabled
(internal issue 663).
* Clarify that code:FragStencilRefEXT is output only in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section (internal
issue 1173).
* Identify and correct many overly-aggressive uses of "`undefined`", and
narrow them down, where straightforward to do so. Mark such resolved
uses of "`undefined`" with the custom undefined: macro. Add a new
<<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section (internal
issue 1267).
* Don't require code:inline_uniform_block descriptors to be populated
before use in the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets section (internal issue
1380).
* Allow suppressing inline SVG images by controlling this with an
attribute set in the Makefile, rather than the explicit [%inline]
directive (internal issue 1391).
* Mark 'Khronos' as a registered trademark in several places, now that it
is one.
* Fix typo in the <<VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64>> appendix using the GLSL
naming of the compare exchange op when referring to the SPIR-V op.
* Specify in the flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyProperties section
that all implementations must support at least one queue family, and
that every queue family must contain at least one queue.
* Make slink:VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pname:dynamicStateCount,
slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsPerPixel, and
slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsCount optional, to
fix bogus implicit valid usage checks that were causing failures in the

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:

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 March 3, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.102 spec update:
* Update release number to 102.
Public Issues:
* Simplify flink:vkGetImageMemoryRequirements constraint for
ename:VK_MEMORY_PROPERTY_LAZILY_ALLOCATED_BIT (public pull request 817).
* Fix typo in markup of the <<textures-texel-coordinate-systems-diagrams,
Texel Coordinate Systems, Corner Sampling>> image that was generating
complaints from chunked HTML output generation (public pull request
928).
Internal Issues:
* Split the old <<features, Features>> chapter into four chapters:
<<features, Features>>, <<limits, Limits>>, <<formats, Formats>>, and
<<capabilities, Capabilities>>, with minor edits to the introductory
paragraph of each chapter. Anchor names in these chapters were changed,
with corresponding effects to xrefs to these anchors elsewhere in spec
markup . The purpose is to make the chunked HTML spec output load faster
on what was previously a single, gigantic chapter (internal issue 1554).
* Add ename:VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_RAY_TRACING_SHADER_BIT_NV, to the supported
pipeline stages for ename:VK_ACCESS_UNIFORM_READ,
ename:VK_ACCESS_SHADER_READ, and ename:VK_ACCESS_SHADER_WRITE in the
<<synchronization-access-types-supported>> table.
* Correct legal name of Google, LLC in vk.xml \<tags> section and a
copyright statement.
* Clarify that Vulkan treats the Android
code:AHARDWAREBUFFER_FORMAT_R8G8B8X8_UNORM format as RGBA, and the
application is responsible for forcing the X/A component to be read as
1.0, in the <<memory-external-android-hardware-buffer-formats>> table.
* Clarify the vertex order of various primitive topologies, and define the
order of transform feedback vertex capture based on that. This involves
a lot of refactoring and cleanup in the <<drawing-primitive-topologies,
Primitive Topologies>>, <<geometry-input, Geometry Shader Input
Primitives>> sections, and <<vertexpostproc-transform-feedback Transform
Feedback>> sections, and numerous places in the <<tessellation>>

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.

* Clarify the elink:VkSharingMode description of what executing the
"same" barriers means in case of ownership transfer (public issue

* 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

each etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macro is defined (public issue 376).
Internal Issues:

After such an error, the surface (and any child swapchain, if one exists)

state.
Applications may: attempt to create a new sname:VkSurfaceKHR using the same

Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing

* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, 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).

devices in a logical device need to wait on it (internal issue 730).
* Improve description of pname:pNext chains of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceImageFormatInfo2KHR and
slink:VkImageFormatProperties2KHR (internal issue 814).
* Clean up math markup issues in the <<textures, Image Operations>>
chapter (internal issue 818).
* Update validusage target to use more robust code for preprocessing, by
making direct use of Asciidoctor's preprocessor. Added uniqueItems check
to JSON vu schema and add clean_validusage target (internal issue 826).
* Update style guide to prohibit writing non-self-contained (on a single
bullet point) Valid Usage statements, and modify offending Valid Usage
statements in the Specification to match, to assist with automatic
extraction for the validation layers (internal issue 828).
* Add ename:VK_VALIDATION_CHECK_SHADERS_EXT to elink:VkValidationCheckEXT
of the `VK_EXT_validation_flags` extension, to selectively disable
shader validation.
* Remove duplicate valid usage statement for slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier.
* Modify reflow.py script to place VUID tag anchors standalone on a line

Change log for May 20, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.50 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 50 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Fix numerous minor issues with the VK_EXT_debug_report extension (public
issues 478, 483, 486, 489, 490).
Internal Issues:
* Update flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets to specify conditions under which
to return ename:VK_ERROR_FRAGMENTED_POOL or
ename:VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_POOL_MEMORY instead of
out-of-host/out-of-device-memory, and improve the
<<fundamentals-errorcodes, description of those errors (internal issue
654).
* Add a NOTE documenting that flink:vkAcquireNextImageKHR can only signal
a single semaphore, and how to deal with that when multiple physical
devices in a logical device need to wait on it (internal issue 730).
* Improve description of pname:pNext chains of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceImageFormatInfo2KHR and
slink:VkImageFormatProperties2KHR (internal issue 814).
* Clean up math markup issues in the <<textures, Image Operations>>
chapter (internal issue 818).
* Update validusage target to use more robust code for preprocessing, by
making direct use of Asciidoctor's preprocessor. Added uniqueItems check
to JSON vu schema and add clean_validusage target (internal issue 826).
* Update style guide to prohibit writing non-self-contained (on a single
bullet point) Valid Usage statements, and modify offending Valid Usage
statements in the Specification to match, to assist with automatic
extraction for the validation layers (internal issue 828).
* Add ename:VK_VALIDATION_CHECK_SHADERS_EXT to elink:VkValidationCheckEXT
of the `VK_EXT_validation_flags` extension, to selectively disable
shader validation.
* Remove duplicate valid usage statement for slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier.
* Modify reflow.py script to place VUID tag anchors standalone on a line
following their corresponding bullet point, and reflow the spec text
accordingly (this had been pending since the initial tag deployment).

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).

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).

Not all physical devices will include WSI support.
Within a physical device, not all queue families will support presentation.
WSI support and compatibility can: be determined in a platform-neutral
manner (which determines support for presentation to a particular surface
object) and additionally may: be determined in platform-specific manners
(which determine support for presentation on the specified physical device
but do not guarantee support for presentation to a particular surface
object).

delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:
* `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
* `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

Change log for October 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.87 spec update:
* Update release number to 87.
Public Issues:
* Merge flink:vkCmdPipelineBarrier self-dependency barrier VUs referring
to the same subpass dependency (public pull request 756).
* Describe default value of `"optional"` attribute in the registry schema
document (public issue 769)
* Fix links in <<VK_NVX_raytracing>> extension (public pull request 805).
* Mark the <<VK_KHR_mir_surface>> extension obsolete (see public issue 814
- does not close this, however).
* Fix missing endif in Image Creation block (public issue 817).
Internal Issues:
* Clarify that the compressed texture formats corresponding to
<<features-features-textureCompressionETC2>>,
<<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR>>, and
<<features-features-textureCompressionBC>> is not contingent on the
feature bits, and may be supported even if the features are not enabled
(internal issue 663).
* Clarify that code:FragStencilRefEXT is output only in the
<<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section (internal
issue 1173).
* Identify and correct many overly-aggressive uses of "`undefined`", and
narrow them down, where straightforward to do so. Mark such resolved
uses of "`undefined`" with the custom undefined: macro. Add a new
<<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section (internal
issue 1267).
* Don't require code:inline_uniform_block descriptors to be populated
before use in the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets section (internal issue
1380).
* Allow suppressing inline SVG images by controlling this with an
attribute set in the Makefile, rather than the explicit [%inline]
directive (internal issue 1391).
* Mark 'Khronos' as a registered trademark in several places, now that it
is one.
* Fix typo in the <<VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64>> appendix using the GLSL
naming of the compare exchange op when referring to the SPIR-V op.
* Specify in the flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyProperties section
that all implementations must support at least one queue family, and
that every queue family must contain at least one queue.
* Make slink:VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pname:dynamicStateCount,
slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsPerPixel, and
slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsCount optional, to
fix bogus implicit valid usage checks that were causing failures in the
conformance tests.
* Fix vendor tag in reserved extension 237 constants. Does not affect
anything since it's just a placeholder, but this should avoid further
comments.
* Minor markup fixes in some extension appendices.
New Extensions:
* `<<VK_FUCHSIA_imagepipe_surface>>`

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:

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 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.

physical device.
The resulting capabilities can be obtained with the queries listed below in
this section.
Capabilities that correspond to image creation parameters are not
independent of each other: combinations of parameters that are not supported
as reported by flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties are not
supported by the surface on that physical device, even if the capabilities
taken individually are supported as part of some other parameter
combinations.
Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:

slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal

* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).

or greater than or equal to pname:minImageCount.
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).

A value of 0 means that there is no limit on the number of images,
though there may: be limits related to the total amount of memory used
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 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.

* 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`

Opaque composition can: be achieved in any alpha compositing mode by
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.
2017-02-11 04:37:39 +00:00
either using an image format that has no alpha component, or by ensuring
that all pixels in the presentable images have an alpha value of 1.0.
Change log for September 6, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.26 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 26 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Bring sample code in the +VK_KHR_surface+ and +VK_KHR_swapchain+
extension summary appendices up to date, and note they will be replaced
with pointers to the LunarG SDK examples in the future (public issue
279).
* Add a new <<fundamentals-commandsyntax-results-lifetime,Lifetime of
Retrieved Results>> section specifying that ftext:vkGet* and
ftext:VkEnumerate* results are invariant unless otherwise specified, and
specify behavior for individual commands which are not invariant (public
issue 280).
* Remove conflicting definition of
slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR::pname:maxSrcPosition and clean up
language of the remaining definition (public issue 351).
* Fix many minor spelling errors and add rules to the style guide to
prevent recurrences (public issue 352).
Internal Issues:
* Remove redundant descriptions of the etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macros from
the <<wsi,Window System Integration>> chapter in favor of the
description in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header,Window System-Specific
Header Control>> appendix (internal issue 6).
* Replace misleading 'can: be destroyed when not X' with more correct
'must: not be destroyed while X' in the
<<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime,Object Lifetime>> section. Disallow
destroying a pipeline layout while a command buffer using it is
recording (internal issue 241).
* Clarify that ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSIENT_ATTACHMENT_BIT is valid for
all images used as attachments in elink:VkImageUsageFlagBits and the
slink:VkImageLayout validity language (internal issue 320).
* Note that <<extended-functionality-layers,Layers>> may wrap object
handles, but that this is a generally discouraged. A link to additional
information in the documentation for layer authors is provided (issue
398)
* Replace the mustnot: and shouldnot: macros with equivalent must: not and
should: not to get rid of non-English words while still highlighting
normative language (internal issue 407).
* Disallow creating multisampled images with
ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_CUBE_COMPATIBLE_BIT in the slink:VkImageLayout
validity language and the <<features-supported-sample-counts,Supported
Sample Counts>> section (internal issue 445).
* Fix typo so that flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect is defined in terms of
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed rather than flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect (internal
issue 446).
* Reorganize the per-extension information sections to all be in the
<<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> appendix. Also fix a typo in
+VK_IMG_filter_cubic+ which incorrectly identified it as a +KHR+
extension (internal issue 461).
Other Issues:
* Use asciidoc markup instead of latexmath to simplify diagrams in the
<<features-formats-non-packed,byte mapping tables>> for color formats.
* Fix a markup problem with the wildcarded enumerant names in a NOTE in
the <<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section.
* Fix missing attributes in the XML interface for
elink:VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV and
elink:VkExternalMemoryFeatureFlagBitsNV (KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Hpp issue
#25)
* Cleanup reference page builds so only core pages are built for releases.

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.

elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

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).

* Use the terms ``allocation scope'' and ``extension scope'' instead of
just ``scope'', and add them to the glossary.

Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
* `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`
-----------------------------------------------------
Note: the 1.0.52 spec wasn't published on github, so the 1.0.53 release
combines both change sets.

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_get_surface_capabilities2`

To query the basic capabilities of a surface defined by the core or
extensions, call:
include::../../api/protos/vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceCapabilities2KHR.txt[]
* pname:physicalDevice is the physical device that will be associated with
the swapchain to be created, as described for
flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR.
* pname:pSurfaceInfo points to an instance of the
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR structure, describing the surface
and other fixed parameters that would be consumed by
flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR.
* pname:pSurfaceCapabilities points to an instance of the
slink:VkSurfaceCapabilities2KHR structure in which the capabilities are
returned.
fname:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceCapabilities2KHR behaves similarly to
flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, with the ability to specify
extended inputs via chained input structures, and to return extended
information via chained output structures.

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>

* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).

slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing

-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:
* `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
* `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

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 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 March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).
* Resolve problems with valid usage statement extraction by fixing
existing VUID tags for interfaces promoted to version 1.1 and fixing
conditional directives around
VUID-VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo-image-01797 (internal issue 1184).
* Strip `KHR` suffixes from a few interfaces promoted to Vulkan 1.1 that
were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.
* Replace a few old refBegin/refEnd tags with open block markup around
interfaces, and remove old KHX VUID tags that were breaking the valid
usage statement extraction.
* Fix error codes accidentally tagged as success codes in `vk.xml` for
flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.
* Fix swapped descriptions of elink:VkDescriptorType enums
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLED_IMAGE and
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE (reported via tweet).
New Extensions:
* `VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer`
2018-03-17 11:04:05 +00:00
* ename:VK_SURFACE_TRANSFORM_IDENTITY_BIT_KHR specifies that image content

to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).

issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).

slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).

* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).

extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the

Change log for November 18, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.93 spec update:
* Update release number to 93.
Public Issues:
* Add spec language for ename:VK_INDEX_TYPE_NONE_NV and fix up
slink:VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV (public issue 848).
* Add missing suffix in description of slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR
parameters (public pull request 851).
* Fix miscellaneous typos (public pull request 855).
* Add driver ID for Pastel (public pull request 856).
* Add missing include directive for slink:VkMemoryWin32HandlePropertiesKHR
implicit valid usage statements (public pull request 857).
Internal Issues:
* Restrict the storage classes permitted for SPIR-V atomics to what is
actually supported, in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation
Rules within a Module>> section (internal issue 1123).
* Add a missing Valid Usage statement to slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo for
the case pname:stencilLoadOp == ename:VK_LOAD_OP_CLEAR, pname:layout ==
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_STENCIL_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL (internal issue
1408).
* Modify optimize-pdf script and Makefile to retain non-optimized original
PDF on errors (internal issue 1435).
* Add <<spirvenv-module-validation, SPIR-V validation rules>> stating that
only the listed code:BuiltIn decorations are permitted, and only when
relevante features and extensions are enabled (internal issue 1449).
* Remove some duplicated Valid Usage IDs created via cut & paste error
(internal issue 1455).
* Build HTML output for extension reference pages (internal issue 1461).

** Add XML noautovalidity flag for VkRenderPassCreateFlags until there
are some corresponding FlagBits defined.
** Corrected types= attribute on some refpage blocks to 'flags'
** Added refpage blocks for some missing types detected by CI tests.
* Fixed many Valid Usage statement issues in slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo,

Change log for January 15, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.68 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 68 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Added more details in the
<<extended-functionality-extensions-compatibility, Extension
Compatibility>> section, allowing explicit incompatibilities, and
simplify corresponding language in the style guide, which now defers to
the API Specification on this point (public issue 638).
* Fix typo in description of slink:VkCommandBufferLevel::pname:level
(public issue 651).
* Only include extension-dependent valid usage statement for
slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, and note that the extension names for
header files described in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window
System-Specific Header Control>> section are only valid links, when the
specification being viewed is built with the corresponding extensions
enabled (public issue 652).
Internal Issues:
* Add language to elink:VkResult specifying that when commands return an
error, output parameter contents are undefined instead of unmodified
(except for pname:sType and pname:pNext). Note that this is a behavior
change. Add notes calling out slink:VkImageFormatProperties as an
exception (internal issue 1118).
* Add "`general-purpose`" to the style guide, and correct existing uses of
"`general purpose`" as an adjective (internal issue 1121).
* Add the ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT_EXT token
for the `VK_EXT_validation_cache` extension, following the same naming
pattern as other tokens in the extension, but keep the old
ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT token around for
backwards compatibility (internal issue 1126).
Other Issues:
* Specify that flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT does not affect copies or
clears, matching existing language for the scissor rectangle test.
* Move the <<boilerplate-sType, pname:sType>> definition from the
boilerplate appendix to the Fundamentals chapter, putting it together
with the valid usage of pname:sType rather than having the definition
split across two places.
* Inline all of the etext:Vk*Flags definitions, moving each one from the
boilerplate appendix to appear either after the corresponding
etext:Vk*FlagBits value if one is defined, or after the first structure
that includes them if not.

flink:vkCmdClearColorImage, flink:vkCmdClearDepthStencilImage, and
slink:VkClearAttachment, so they are in places where all necessary
information is available (public issue 529).
* Fix math markup in <<textures-texel-anisotropic-filtering, Texel
Anisotropic Filtering>> (public pull request 840).
* Fix misspellings (public pull request 845).
Internal Issues:
* Add installation instructions and a Makefile "`chunked`" target for
chunked HTML generation (internal issue 1352).
* Fix pipeline mesh diagram style; also fix a minor bug in the classic
pipeline diagram where vertex/index buffers wrongly fed into the vertex
shader (internal issue 1436).
* Make asciidoctor ERROR output raise an error, and don't suppress
executed command output from CI make invocation (internal issue 1454).
* Minor typo fixes and clarifications for `VK_NV_raytracing`.
* Cleanup extension-specific properties
** Remove duplicated documentation for pname:maxDiscardRectangles,
pname:pointClippingBehavior, and pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor (they
shouldn't be documented with the other members of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits at all).
** Remove duplicate anchor for pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor
** Consistently document stext:VkPhysicalDevice<Extension>PropertiesKHR
*** Always document pname:sType/pname:pNext (was inconsistent before)
*** Always mention chaining to slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 (and not
as slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR)
*** Always include Valid Usage statements last
* Update Makefile 'checklinks' target and associated scripts, and fix
markup problems identified by checkLinks.py, so that we can rely on the
checklinks script as part of Gitlab CI.

Internal Issues:
* Restrict the storage classes permitted for SPIR-V atomics to what is
actually supported, in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation
Rules within a Module>> section (internal issue 1123).
* Add a missing Valid Usage statement to slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo for
the case pname:stencilLoadOp == ename:VK_LOAD_OP_CLEAR, pname:layout ==
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_STENCIL_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL (internal issue
1408).
* Modify optimize-pdf script and Makefile to retain non-optimized original
PDF on errors (internal issue 1435).
* Add <<spirvenv-module-validation, SPIR-V validation rules>> stating that
only the listed code:BuiltIn decorations are permitted, and only when
relevante features and extensions are enabled (internal issue 1449).
* Remove some duplicated Valid Usage IDs created via cut & paste error
(internal issue 1455).
* Build HTML output for extension reference pages (internal issue 1461).

Change log for January 15, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.68 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 68 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Added more details in the
<<extended-functionality-extensions-compatibility, Extension
Compatibility>> section, allowing explicit incompatibilities, and
simplify corresponding language in the style guide, which now defers to
the API Specification on this point (public issue 638).
* Fix typo in description of slink:VkCommandBufferLevel::pname:level
(public issue 651).
* Only include extension-dependent valid usage statement for
slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, and note that the extension names for
header files described in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window
System-Specific Header Control>> section are only valid links, when the
specification being viewed is built with the corresponding extensions
enabled (public issue 652).
Internal Issues:
* Add language to elink:VkResult specifying that when commands return an
error, output parameter contents are undefined instead of unmodified
(except for pname:sType and pname:pNext). Note that this is a behavior
change. Add notes calling out slink:VkImageFormatProperties as an
exception (internal issue 1118).
* Add "`general-purpose`" to the style guide, and correct existing uses of
"`general purpose`" as an adjective (internal issue 1121).
* Add the ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT_EXT token
for the `VK_EXT_validation_cache` extension, following the same naming
pattern as other tokens in the extension, but keep the old
ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT token around for
backwards compatibility (internal issue 1126).
Other Issues:
* Specify that flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT does not affect copies or
clears, matching existing language for the scissor rectangle test.
* Move the <<boilerplate-sType, pname:sType>> definition from the
boilerplate appendix to the Fundamentals chapter, putting it together
with the valid usage of pname:sType rather than having the definition
split across two places.
* Inline all of the etext:Vk*Flags definitions, moving each one from the
boilerplate appendix to appear either after the corresponding
etext:Vk*FlagBits value if one is defined, or after the first structure
that includes them if not.

chunked HTML generation (internal issue 1352).
* Fix pipeline mesh diagram style; also fix a minor bug in the classic
pipeline diagram where vertex/index buffers wrongly fed into the vertex
shader (internal issue 1436).
* Make asciidoctor ERROR output raise an error, and don't suppress
executed command output from CI make invocation (internal issue 1454).
* Minor typo fixes and clarifications for `VK_NV_raytracing`.
* Cleanup extension-specific properties
** Remove duplicated documentation for pname:maxDiscardRectangles,
pname:pointClippingBehavior, and pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor (they
shouldn't be documented with the other members of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits at all).
** Remove duplicate anchor for pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor
** Consistently document stext:VkPhysicalDevice<Extension>PropertiesKHR
*** Always document pname:sType/pname:pNext (was inconsistent before)
*** Always mention chaining to slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 (and not
as slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR)
*** Always include Valid Usage statements last
* Update Makefile 'checklinks' target and associated scripts, and fix
markup problems identified by checkLinks.py, so that we can rely on the
checklinks script as part of Gitlab CI.

Github Issues:
* Bring sample code in the +VK_KHR_surface+ and +VK_KHR_swapchain+
extension summary appendices up to date, and note they will be replaced
with pointers to the LunarG SDK examples in the future (public issue
279).
* Add a new <<fundamentals-commandsyntax-results-lifetime,Lifetime of
Retrieved Results>> section specifying that ftext:vkGet* and
ftext:VkEnumerate* results are invariant unless otherwise specified, and
specify behavior for individual commands which are not invariant (public
issue 280).
* Remove conflicting definition of
slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR::pname:maxSrcPosition and clean up
language of the remaining definition (public issue 351).
* Fix many minor spelling errors and add rules to the style guide to
prevent recurrences (public issue 352).
Internal Issues:
* Remove redundant descriptions of the etext:VK_USE_PLATFORM_* macros from
the <<wsi,Window System Integration>> chapter in favor of the
description in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header,Window System-Specific
Header Control>> appendix (internal issue 6).
* Replace misleading 'can: be destroyed when not X' with more correct
'must: not be destroyed while X' in the
<<fundamentals-objectmodel-lifetime,Object Lifetime>> section. Disallow
destroying a pipeline layout while a command buffer using it is
recording (internal issue 241).
* Clarify that ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_TRANSIENT_ATTACHMENT_BIT is valid for
all images used as attachments in elink:VkImageUsageFlagBits and the
slink:VkImageLayout validity language (internal issue 320).
* Note that <<extended-functionality-layers,Layers>> may wrap object
handles, but that this is a generally discouraged. A link to additional
information in the documentation for layer authors is provided (issue
398)
* Replace the mustnot: and shouldnot: macros with equivalent must: not and
should: not to get rid of non-English words while still highlighting
normative language (internal issue 407).
* Disallow creating multisampled images with
ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_CUBE_COMPATIBLE_BIT in the slink:VkImageLayout
validity language and the <<features-supported-sample-counts,Supported
Sample Counts>> section (internal issue 445).
* Fix typo so that flink:vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirect is defined in terms of
flink:vkCmdDrawIndexed rather than flink:vkCmdDrawIndirect (internal
issue 446).
* Reorganize the per-extension information sections to all be in the
<<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> appendix. Also fix a typo in
+VK_IMG_filter_cubic+ which incorrectly identified it as a +KHR+
extension (internal issue 461).
Other Issues:
* Use asciidoc markup instead of latexmath to simplify diagrams in the
<<features-formats-non-packed,byte mapping tables>> for color formats.
* Fix a markup problem with the wildcarded enumerant names in a NOTE in
the <<textures-texel-replacement,Texel Replacement>> section.
* Fix missing attributes in the XML interface for
elink:VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV and
elink:VkExternalMemoryFeatureFlagBitsNV (KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Hpp issue

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).

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>

* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

* `VK_KHR_get_surface_capabilities2`

To query the supported swapchain format tuples for a surface, call:
include::../../api/protos/vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceFormats2KHR.txt[]
* pname:physicalDevice is the physical device that will be associated with
the swapchain to be created, as described for
flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR.
* pname:pSurfaceInfo points to an instance of the
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR structure, describing the surface
and other fixed parameters that would be consumed by
flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR.
* pname:pSurfaceFormatCount is a pointer to an integer related to the
number of format tuples available or queried, as described below.
* pname:pSurfaceFormats is either `NULL` or a pointer to an array of
slink:VkSurfaceFormat2KHR structures.
If pname:pSurfaceFormats is `NULL`, then the number of format tuples
supported for the given pname:surface is returned in
pname:pSurfaceFormatCount.
The number of format tuples supported will be greater than or equal to 1.
Otherwise, pname:pSurfaceFormatCount must: point to a variable set by the
user to the number of elements in the pname:pSurfaceFormats array, and on
return the variable is overwritten with the number of structures actually
written to pname:pSurfaceFormats.
If the value of pname:pSurfaceFormatCount is less than the number of format
tuples supported, at most pname:pSurfaceFormatCount structures will be
written.
If pname:pSurfaceFormatCount is smaller than the number of format tuples
supported for the surface parameters described in pname:pSurfaceInfo,
ename:VK_INCOMPLETE will be returned instead of ename:VK_SUCCESS to indicate
that not all the available values were returned.

to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).

pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing

(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).

* 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 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.

Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).
* Resolve problems with valid usage statement extraction by fixing
existing VUID tags for interfaces promoted to version 1.1 and fixing
conditional directives around
VUID-VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo-image-01797 (internal issue 1184).
* Strip `KHR` suffixes from a few interfaces promoted to Vulkan 1.1 that
were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.
* Replace a few old refBegin/refEnd tags with open block markup around
interfaces, and remove old KHX VUID tags that were breaking the valid
usage statement extraction.
* Fix error codes accidentally tagged as success codes in `vk.xml` for
flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.
* Fix swapped descriptions of elink:VkDescriptorType enums
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLED_IMAGE and
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE (reported via tweet).

* Update the style guide to include the general structure of a Vulkan
command name, the specific rule for using "`Get`" vs. "`Enumerate`" in
names, and a table of verbs commonly used in command names (spinoff of
internal issue 753).
* Clarified the behavior of automatic layout transitions in case of
attachment views that are 2D or 2D array views of 3D images. In
addition, restructured the valid usage clauses corresponding to the
members of the slink:VkImageSubresourceRange structure and added missing
valid usage clauses for its pname:baseMipLevel and pname:baseArrayLayer
members (internal issues 803, 849).
* Modify `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification to allow explicit std430 on a
push_constant declaration (internal issue 919).
Other Commits:
* Modify <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions, Framebuffer Region
Dependencies>> to use synchronization scope terminology.
* Add ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT to the

* Replace XML comments with `comment` attributes and/or tags, to enable
tools which transform the XML without loss of information.
* Replace `validextensionstructs` with `structextends`, which is tagged in
the child structure instead of the parent. This makes it slightly
simpler to add new structs to the XML, causes fewer merge conflicts, and
the information is kept localized to the extension structures where it
belongs. The old `validextensionstructs` attributes will be retained
until we're certain this doesn't cause problems with known consumers of
+vk.xml+.

* Fix link to floating/normalized fixed-point conversion from
<<interfaces-fragmentoutput,Fragment Output Interface>> (public issue
521).
Internal Issues:
* Update the style guide to include the general structure of a Vulkan
command name, the specific rule for using "`Get`" vs. "`Enumerate`" in
names, and a table of verbs commonly used in command names (spinoff of
internal issue 753).
* Clarified the behavior of automatic layout transitions in case of
attachment views that are 2D or 2D array views of 3D images. In
addition, restructured the valid usage clauses corresponding to the
members of the slink:VkImageSubresourceRange structure and added missing
valid usage clauses for its pname:baseMipLevel and pname:baseArrayLayer
members (internal issues 803, 849).
* Modify `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification to allow explicit std430 on a
push_constant declaration (internal issue 919).
Other Commits:
* Modify <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions, Framebuffer Region
Dependencies>> to use synchronization scope terminology.
* Add ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT to the
`VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace` extension.
* Replace XML comments with `comment` attributes and/or tags, to enable
tools which transform the XML without loss of information.
* Replace `validextensionstructs` with `structextends`, which is tagged in
the child structure instead of the parent. This makes it slightly
simpler to add new structs to the XML, causes fewer merge conflicts, and
the information is kept localized to the extension structures where it
belongs. The old `validextensionstructs` attributes will be retained
until we're certain this doesn't cause problems with known consumers of
+vk.xml+.

extended sRGB color space and applies a linear transfer function.
Change log for March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).
* Resolve problems with valid usage statement extraction by fixing
existing VUID tags for interfaces promoted to version 1.1 and fixing
conditional directives around
VUID-VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo-image-01797 (internal issue 1184).
* Strip `KHR` suffixes from a few interfaces promoted to Vulkan 1.1 that
were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.
* Replace a few old refBegin/refEnd tags with open block markup around
interfaces, and remove old KHX VUID tags that were breaking the valid
usage statement extraction.
* Fix error codes accidentally tagged as success codes in `vk.xml` for
flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.
* Fix swapped descriptions of elink:VkDescriptorType enums
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLED_IMAGE and
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE (reported via tweet).

Change log for July 15, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.55 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 55 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Removed unintended optional parameter in +vk.xml+ from the
pname:pWaitSemaphores member of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR, which resulted
in the generation of an incorrect implicit valid usage clause allowing
pname:pWaitSemaphores to be NULL even when pname:waitSemaphoreCount is
non-zero (public issue 491).
* Add missing attribute to +vk.xml+ documenting that
slink:VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT extends
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfo (public issue 510).
* Add const qualifier for some `VK_EXT_debug_market` extension command
parameters that were missing it (public issue 513).

* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.
* Replace a few old refBegin/refEnd tags with open block markup around
interfaces, and remove old KHX VUID tags that were breaking the valid
usage statement extraction.
* Fix error codes accidentally tagged as success codes in `vk.xml` for
flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.
* Fix swapped descriptions of elink:VkDescriptorType enums
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLED_IMAGE and
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE (reported via tweet).

being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).

image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).

variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).

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.
2017-01-18 04:11:25 +00:00
The color components of Non-linear color space swap chain images have had
the appropriate transfer function applied.
Change log for July 15, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.55 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 55 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Removed unintended optional parameter in +vk.xml+ from the
pname:pWaitSemaphores member of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR, which resulted
in the generation of an incorrect implicit valid usage clause allowing
pname:pWaitSemaphores to be NULL even when pname:waitSemaphoreCount is
non-zero (public issue 491).
* Add missing attribute to +vk.xml+ documenting that
slink:VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT extends
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfo (public issue 510).
* Add const qualifier for some `VK_EXT_debug_market` extension command
parameters that were missing it (public issue 513).
* Fix definition of q and level~base~ in
<<textures-image-level-selection,Image Level(s) Selection>> (public
issue 515).
* Clarify lifetime requirement for slink:VkRenderPass objects used in
object creation (public issue 516).
* Fix link to floating/normalized fixed-point conversion from
<<interfaces-fragmentoutput,Fragment Output Interface>> (public issue
521).
Internal Issues:
* Update the style guide to include the general structure of a Vulkan
command name, the specific rule for using "`Get`" vs. "`Enumerate`" in
names, and a table of verbs commonly used in command names (spinoff of
internal issue 753).
* Clarified the behavior of automatic layout transitions in case of
attachment views that are 2D or 2D array views of 3D images. In
addition, restructured the valid usage clauses corresponding to the
members of the slink:VkImageSubresourceRange structure and added missing
valid usage clauses for its pname:baseMipLevel and pname:baseArrayLayer
members (internal issues 803, 849).
* Modify `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification to allow explicit std430 on a
push_constant declaration (internal issue 919).
Other Commits:
* Modify <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions, Framebuffer Region
Dependencies>> to use synchronization scope terminology.
* Add ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT to the
`VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace` extension.
* Replace XML comments with `comment` attributes and/or tags, to enable
tools which transform the XML without loss of information.
* Replace `validextensionstructs` with `structextends`, which is tagged in
the child structure instead of the parent. This makes it slightly
simpler to add new structs to the XML, causes fewer merge conflicts, and
the information is kept localized to the extension structures where it
belongs. The old `validextensionstructs` attributes will be retained
until we're certain this doesn't cause problems with known consumers of
+vk.xml+.

Vulkan requires that all implementations support the sRGB transfer function
when using an SRGB pixel format.
2017-03-25 08:46:58 +00:00
Other transfer functions, such as SMPTE 170M or SMPTE2084, must: not be
performed by the implementation, but can: be performed by the application
shader.
This extension defines enums for elink:VkColorSpaceKHR that correspond to

Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are

which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &

parameters that were missing it (public issue 513).
* Fix definition of q and level~base~ in
<<textures-image-level-selection,Image Level(s) Selection>> (public
issue 515).
* Clarify lifetime requirement for slink:VkRenderPass objects used in
object creation (public issue 516).
* Fix link to floating/normalized fixed-point conversion from
<<interfaces-fragmentoutput,Fragment Output Interface>> (public issue
521).
Internal Issues:
* Update the style guide to include the general structure of a Vulkan
command name, the specific rule for using "`Get`" vs. "`Enumerate`" in
names, and a table of verbs commonly used in command names (spinoff of
internal issue 753).
* Clarified the behavior of automatic layout transitions in case of
attachment views that are 2D or 2D array views of 3D images. In
addition, restructured the valid usage clauses corresponding to the
members of the slink:VkImageSubresourceRange structure and added missing
valid usage clauses for its pname:baseMipLevel and pname:baseArrayLayer
members (internal issues 803, 849).
* Modify `GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl` specification to allow explicit std430 on a
push_constant declaration (internal issue 919).
Other Commits:
* Modify <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions, Framebuffer Region
Dependencies>> to use synchronization scope terminology.
* Add ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT to the
`VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace` extension.
* Replace XML comments with `comment` attributes and/or tags, to enable
tools which transform the XML without loss of information.
* Replace `validextensionstructs` with `structextends`, which is tagged in
the child structure instead of the parent. This makes it slightly
simpler to add new structs to the XML, causes fewer merge conflicts, and
the information is kept localized to the extension structures where it
belongs. The old `validextensionstructs` attributes will be retained
until we're certain this doesn't cause problems with known consumers of
+vk.xml+.

An implementation supporting this extension indicates support for these
color spaces via slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures returned from
flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceFormatsKHR.
Specifying the supported surface color space when calling
flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR will create a swapchain using that color space.
Vulkan requires that all implementations support the sRGB Opto-Electrical
Transfer Function (OETF) and Electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) when
using an SRGB pixel format.

VK_COMMAND_POOL_CREATE_RESET_COMMAND_BUFFER_BIT (public issue 471)
* Removed extra valid usage statement in VkSubmitInfo (public issue 472)
Internal Issues:
* Clarify description of the pname:imageLayout member of
sname:VkDescriptorImageInfo.
* Fix typos where etext:VK_VIEW_TYPE* was used instead of
etext:VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE.
* Removed the <<VK_KHR_display>> and <<VK_KHR_display_swapchain>> example
code from the specification and noted it has been moved to the Vulkan
SDK cube demo (internal issue 179).
* Reorder VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV description (internal issue

* Break Valid Usage statements describing unrelated parameters into
separate statements, and add a style guide entry to follow this approach
(internal issue 685).

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>>+,

* 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

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

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.

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:

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

An internal single-entry queue is used to hold pending presentation
requests.
If the queue is full when a new presentation request is received, the
new request replaces the existing entry, and any images associated with
the prior entry become available for re-use by the application.
One request is removed from the queue and processed during each vertical
blanking period in which the queue is non-empty.

If a vertical blanking period has already passed since the last update
of the current image then the presentation engine does not wait for
another vertical blanking period for the update, meaning this mode may:
result in visible tearing in this case.
This mode is useful for reducing visual stutter with an application that
will mostly present a new image before the next vertical blanking
period, but may occasionally be late, and present a new image just after
the next vertical blanking period.
An internal queue is used to hold pending presentation requests.
New requests are appended to the end of the queue, and one request is
2016-08-28 10:47:19 +00:00
removed from the beginning of the queue and processed during or after
each vertical blanking period in which the queue is non-empty.
Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.

* `VK_KHR_get_surface_capabilities2`
* `VK_KHR_shared_presentable_image`

The presentation engine is only required to update the current image
after a new presentation request is received.
Therefore the application must: make a presentation request whenever an
update is required.
However, the presentation engine may: update the current image at any
point, meaning this mode may: result in visible tearing.
Change log for March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).
* Resolve problems with valid usage statement extraction by fixing
existing VUID tags for interfaces promoted to version 1.1 and fixing
conditional directives around
VUID-VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo-image-01797 (internal issue 1184).
* Strip `KHR` suffixes from a few interfaces promoted to Vulkan 1.1 that
were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero
height viewports are allowed when this extension is enabled (internal
issue 1202).
* Fix slink:VkDescriptorSetLayoutBinding description so that shader stages
always use descriptor bindings, not the other way around (internal issue
1206).
* Fix field name for
slink:VkInputAttachmentAspectReference::pname:inputAttachmentIndex
(internal issue 1210).
Other Issues:
* Fix a few broken links in the <<versions-1.1, Version 1.1>> appendix.
* Replace a few old refBegin/refEnd tags with open block markup around
interfaces, and remove old KHX VUID tags that were breaking the valid
usage statement extraction.
* Fix error codes accidentally tagged as success codes in `vk.xml` for
flink:vkGetSwapchainCounterEXT.
* Added valid usage statements for ftext:vkBind*Memory2 input structures
stext:VkBind*MemoryInfo, and fix a pname:image -> pname:buffer typo in a
couple of places.
* Fix swapped descriptions of elink:VkDescriptorType enums
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLED_IMAGE and
ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_STORAGE_IMAGE (reported via tweet).
New Extensions:
* `VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer`
2018-03-17 11:04:05 +00:00
* ename:VK_PRESENT_MODE_SHARED_CONTINUOUS_REFRESH_KHR specifies that the
2017-06-05 03:48:43 +00:00
presentation engine and application have concurrent access to a single
image, which is referred to as a _shared presentable image_.
Change log for May 12, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.49 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 49 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Modify reference page extraction script to make internal links to spec
anchors refer to the core specification instead of being dangling links
(public issue 455).
* Fix GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl typo and add a nor-normative mapping to the newly
published StorageBuffer class (public issue 466).
* Both flink:vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties and
flink:vkEnumerateDeviceExtensionProperties return
ename:VK_ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT, which covers the error case of an
application providing a layer name that wasn't returned by
ftext:vkEnumerate{Instance|Device}LayerProperties (public issue 487).
* The specification for flink:VkApplicationInfo::apiVersion says that the
driver must return ename:VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER in the case that
pname:apiVersion specifies a non-supported version. That means that the
valid usage should not also state that, and so the VU statement is
removed. The VU had language about "`an effective substitute`" that
would have been lost, and so it was moved to the pname:apiVersion
description (public issue 488).
Internal Issues:
* Modify implicit validity generator script to assign asciidoc anchors to
all valid usage statements it generates, and reflow.py script to insert
Valid Usage ID (VUID) tags into the specification source files for
explicit valid usage statements. This has no semantic effects on the
specification, but will support the validation layer's detection of
valid usage violations and allow it to link into the corresponding part
of the specification (internal issue 583).
* Assign VUID tags to all explicit VU statements and document
the process and tag format in the style guide (internal issue 583).
* Clarify the rules of whether to structure new functionality as instance
extensions, device extensions, or both in the
<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance
Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (internal issue 749).
* Require that SPIR-V run-time arrays are only used with the
code:BufferBlock decoration (internal issue 750).
* Fix implicit and explicit valid usage statements for
slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet::pname:dstSet (internal issue 767)
* Fix SPIR-V code sample for ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER
in the <<descriptorsets-uniformtexelbuffer, Uniform Texel Buffer>>
section (internal issue 770).
* Clarify that disabling depth testing also disables depth writes in the
<<fragops-ds-state, Depth and Stencil Operations>> section (internal
issue 775).
* flink:VkDescriptorImageInfo::pname:imageLayout must match the actual
imageLayout at the time the image is accessed. This was in the spec
text, but needed an associated valid usage statement.
* Note that only 32-bit atomic operations are supported in the
<<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Note that code:UniformConstant variables must not have initializers in
the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Add a new elink:VkObjectType enumeration to the core API, promoted from
elink:VkDebugObjectTypeEXT, since it is used for much more than just the
debug_report extension.
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_get_surface_capabilities2`
* `VK_KHR_shared_presentable_image`
2017-05-12 08:37:16 +00:00
The presentation engine periodically updates the current image on its
regular refresh cycle.
The application is only required to make one initial presentation
request, after which the presentation engine must: update the current
image without any need for further presentation requests.
The application can: indicate the image contents have been updated by
making a presentation request, but this does not guarantee the timing of
when it will be updated.
This mode may: result in visible tearing if rendering to the image is
not timed correctly.
The supported elink:VkImageUsageFlagBits of the presentable images of a
swapchain created for a surface may: differ depending on the presentation
mode, and can be determined as per the table below:

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).

Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`

Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working

== Full Screen Exclusive Control
Swapchains created with pname:fullScreenExclusive set to
ename:VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_APPLICATION_CONTROLLED_EXT must: acquire and
release exclusive full-screen access explicitly, using the following
commands.
[open,refpage='vkAcquireFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT',desc='Acquire full-screen exclusive mode for a swapchain',type='protos']
--
To acquire exclusive full-screen access for a swapchain, call:

* pname:device is the device associated with pname:swapchain.
* pname:swapchain is the swapchain to acquire exclusive full-screen access
for.
.Valid Usage
****

slink:VkSurfaceFullScreenExclusiveInfoEXT, with
pname:fullScreenExclusive set to
ename:VK_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_APPLICATION_CONTROLLED_EXT
* [[VUID-vkAcquireFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT-swapchain-02676]]
pname:swapchain must: not currently have exclusive full-screen access
****
A return value of ename:VK_SUCCESS indicates that the pname:swapchain
successfully acquired exclusive full-screen access.
The swapchain will retain this exclusivity until either the application
releases exclusive full-screen access with
flink:vkReleaseFullScreenExclusiveModeEXT, destroys the swapchain, or if any
of the swapchain commands return
ename:VK_ERROR_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_MODE_LOST_EXT indicating that the mode
was lost because of platform-specific changes.
If the swapchain was unable to acquire exclusive full-screen access to the
display then ename:VK_ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED is returned.
An application can: attempt to acquire exclusive full-screen access again
for the same swapchain even if this command fails, or if
ename:VK_ERROR_FULL_SCREEN_EXCLUSIVE_MODE_LOST_EXT has been returned by a
swapchain command.

ifdef::VK_KHR_swapchain[]
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`

== Device Group Queries
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 June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
* `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`

Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

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:

(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:

Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing

* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the

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`

Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a

equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working

2017-02-27 06:54:26 +00:00
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

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`
2018-03-07 12:18:52 +00:00
* pname:modes is a bitmask of elink:VkDeviceGroupPresentModeFlagBitsKHR
2017-06-05 03:48:43 +00:00
indicating which device group presentation modes are supported.
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_push_descriptor
** VK_KHX_device_group
** VK_KHX_device_group_creation

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.

* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the

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:

Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`

* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

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

Usage for Newer Core Versions>>, <<initialization-functionpointers
Command Function Pointers>>, <<initialization-phys-dev-extensions,

<<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance

flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceImageFormatProperties2. This documents that

the ICD; physical device-level functionality is tied to the ICD, and

Change log for March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic
State>> subsection (public issue 620).
* Clarified deprecation statement in the `VK_AMD_negative_viewport_height`
appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).
* Clarify statement in the <<interfaces-resources-setandbinding,
DescriptorSet and Binding Assignment>> section that only interface
variables statically used by the entry point used in a pipeline must be
present in the descriptor set layout (internal issue 1172).
* Flip sparse image diagrams with partially full mip levels vertically, to
match graph origins of other image diagrams (internal issue 1176).
* Update new SVG diagrams to have consistent style and base font size,
increase consistency of primitive topology diagrams, and add a section
to the style guide on creating and editing images in a consistent style
(internal issue 1177).
* Resolve problems with valid usage statement extraction by fixing
existing VUID tags for interfaces promoted to version 1.1 and fixing
conditional directives around
VUID-VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo-image-01797 (internal issue 1184).
* Strip `KHR` suffixes from a few interfaces promoted to Vulkan 1.1 that
were missed previously (internal issue 1185).
* Restrict code:OpImageQuerySizeLod and code:OpImageQueryLevels to only
work on code:Image operands with their code:Sampled operand set to 1. In
other words, these operations are not defined to work with storage
images (internal issue 1193).
* Recycle extension slot for extension #82 in `vk.xml`. This extension was
never published (internal issue 1195).
* Add an issue to the `VK_KHR_maintenance1` appendix noting that zero

Change log for March 16, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.71 spec update:
* First public update for Vulkan 1.1.
Github Issues:
* Refer to standard sparse image block shape format tables explicitly in
the <<sparsememory-standard-shapes, Standard Sparse Image Block Shapes>>
section (public issue 93).
* Add the missing definition of the code:LocalInvocationIndex decoration
in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section
(public issue 532).
* Clarify dynamic state definition in the introduction to the <<pipelines,
Pipelines>> section and the new <<pipelines-dynamic-state, Dynamic

appendix (public issue 674).
* Fix parameter descriptions for flink:vkCreateIndirectCommandsLayoutNVX
(public issue 677).
Internal Issues:
* Remove description of <<primsrast-points, rasterization point size>>
being taken from the tessellation control shader, since there are no
circumstances under which you can have TCS without TES (internal issue
522).
* Define <<copies-images-format-size-compatibility, _size-compatible_
image formats>> for flink:vkCmdCopyImage, add it to the glossary, and
use that definition for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue
771).
* Change brief descriptions of enumerant names, and of parameters which
are enumerants, from "`enum *indicates*`" to "`enum *specifies*`" for
consistency, and add a markup style guide rule (internal issue 862).
* Clarify how execution dependencies interact with
<<synchronization-submission-order, submission order>> at numerous
places in the <<renderpass, Render Pass>> and <<synchronization,
Synchronization>> chapters (internal issue 1062).

Change log for June 24, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.53 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a

Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:

Change log for November 18, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.93 spec update:
* Update release number to 93.
Public Issues:
* Add spec language for ename:VK_INDEX_TYPE_NONE_NV and fix up
slink:VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV (public issue 848).
* Add missing suffix in description of slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR
parameters (public pull request 851).
* Fix miscellaneous typos (public pull request 855).
* Add driver ID for Pastel (public pull request 856).
* Add missing include directive for slink:VkMemoryWin32HandlePropertiesKHR
implicit valid usage statements (public pull request 857).
Internal Issues:
* Restrict the storage classes permitted for SPIR-V atomics to what is
actually supported, in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation
Rules within a Module>> section (internal issue 1123).
* Add a missing Valid Usage statement to slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo for
the case pname:stencilLoadOp == ename:VK_LOAD_OP_CLEAR, pname:layout ==
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_STENCIL_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL (internal issue
1408).
* Modify optimize-pdf script and Makefile to retain non-optimized original
PDF on errors (internal issue 1435).
* Add <<spirvenv-module-validation, SPIR-V validation rules>> stating that
only the listed code:BuiltIn decorations are permitted, and only when
relevante features and extensions are enabled (internal issue 1449).
* Remove some duplicated Valid Usage IDs created via cut & paste error
(internal issue 1455).
* Build HTML output for extension reference pages (internal issue 1461).
** Improve genRef.py handling of aliases defined inside other refpages.
** Emit aliases in pygenerator.py.
** Add XML noautovalidity flag for VkRenderPassCreateFlags until there
are some corresponding FlagBits defined.
** Corrected types= attribute on some refpage blocks to 'flags'
** Added refpage blocks for some missing types detected by CI tests.
* Fixed many Valid Usage statement issues in slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo,
slink:VkSubpassDescription, slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR,
slink:VkSubpassDependency2KHR, flink:vkCmdBeginRenderPass,
flink:vkCmdBeginRenderPass2KHR, and slink:VkRenderPassBeginInfo
discovered while adding `VK_KHR_create_renderpass2` to the validation
layers.

Change log for January 15, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.68 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 68 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Added more details in the
<<extended-functionality-extensions-compatibility, Extension
Compatibility>> section, allowing explicit incompatibilities, and
simplify corresponding language in the style guide, which now defers to
the API Specification on this point (public issue 638).
* Fix typo in description of slink:VkCommandBufferLevel::pname:level
(public issue 651).
* Only include extension-dependent valid usage statement for
slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, and note that the extension names for
header files described in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window
System-Specific Header Control>> section are only valid links, when the
specification being viewed is built with the corresponding extensions
enabled (public issue 652).
Internal Issues:
* Add language to elink:VkResult specifying that when commands return an
error, output parameter contents are undefined instead of unmodified
(except for pname:sType and pname:pNext). Note that this is a behavior
change. Add notes calling out slink:VkImageFormatProperties as an
exception (internal issue 1118).
* Add "`general-purpose`" to the style guide, and correct existing uses of
"`general purpose`" as an adjective (internal issue 1121).
* Add the ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT_EXT token
for the `VK_EXT_validation_cache` extension, following the same naming
pattern as other tokens in the extension, but keep the old
ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT token around for
backwards compatibility (internal issue 1126).
Other Issues:
* Specify that flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT does not affect copies or
clears, matching existing language for the scissor rectangle test.
* Move the <<boilerplate-sType, pname:sType>> definition from the
boilerplate appendix to the Fundamentals chapter, putting it together
with the valid usage of pname:sType rather than having the definition
split across two places.
* Inline all of the etext:Vk*Flags definitions, moving each one from the
boilerplate appendix to appear either after the corresponding
etext:Vk*FlagBits value if one is defined, or after the first structure
that includes them if not.

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 January 15, 2018 Vulkan 1.0.68 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 68 for this update.
Github Issues:
* Added more details in the
<<extended-functionality-extensions-compatibility, Extension
Compatibility>> section, allowing explicit incompatibilities, and
simplify corresponding language in the style guide, which now defers to
the API Specification on this point (public issue 638).
* Fix typo in description of slink:VkCommandBufferLevel::pname:level
(public issue 651).
* Only include extension-dependent valid usage statement for
slink:VkImageSubresourceRange, and note that the extension names for
header files described in the <<boilerplate-wsi-header, Window
System-Specific Header Control>> section are only valid links, when the
specification being viewed is built with the corresponding extensions
enabled (public issue 652).
Internal Issues:
* Add language to elink:VkResult specifying that when commands return an
error, output parameter contents are undefined instead of unmodified
(except for pname:sType and pname:pNext). Note that this is a behavior
change. Add notes calling out slink:VkImageFormatProperties as an
exception (internal issue 1118).
* Add "`general-purpose`" to the style guide, and correct existing uses of
"`general purpose`" as an adjective (internal issue 1121).
* Add the ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT_EXT token
for the `VK_EXT_validation_cache` extension, following the same naming
pattern as other tokens in the extension, but keep the old
ename:VK_DEBUG_REPORT_OBJECT_TYPE_VALIDATION_CACHE_EXT token around for
backwards compatibility (internal issue 1126).
Other Issues:
* Specify that flink:vkCmdSetDiscardRectangleEXT does not affect copies or
clears, matching existing language for the scissor rectangle test.
* Move the <<boilerplate-sType, pname:sType>> definition from the
boilerplate appendix to the Fundamentals chapter, putting it together
with the valid usage of pname:sType rather than having the definition
split across two places.
* Inline all of the etext:Vk*Flags definitions, moving each one from the
boilerplate appendix to appear either after the corresponding
etext:Vk*FlagBits value if one is defined, or after the first structure
that includes them if not.

Change log for November 12, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.92 spec update:
* Update release number to 92.
Public Issues:
* Move and modify valid usage statements dealing with pname:aspectMask in
flink:vkCmdClearColorImage, flink:vkCmdClearDepthStencilImage, and
slink:VkClearAttachment, so they are in places where all necessary
information is available (public issue 529).
* Fix math markup in <<textures-texel-anisotropic-filtering, Texel
Anisotropic Filtering>> (public pull request 840).
* Fix misspellings (public pull request 845).
Internal Issues:
* Add installation instructions and a Makefile "`chunked`" target for
chunked HTML generation (internal issue 1352).
* Fix pipeline mesh diagram style; also fix a minor bug in the classic
pipeline diagram where vertex/index buffers wrongly fed into the vertex
shader (internal issue 1436).
* Make asciidoctor ERROR output raise an error, and don't suppress
executed command output from CI make invocation (internal issue 1454).
* Minor typo fixes and clarifications for `VK_NV_raytracing`.
* Cleanup extension-specific properties
** Remove duplicated documentation for pname:maxDiscardRectangles,
pname:pointClippingBehavior, and pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor (they
shouldn't be documented with the other members of
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits at all).
** Remove duplicate anchor for pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor
** Consistently document stext:VkPhysicalDevice<Extension>PropertiesKHR
*** Always document pname:sType/pname:pNext (was inconsistent before)
*** Always mention chaining to slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 (and not
as slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR)
*** Always include Valid Usage statements last
* Update Makefile 'checklinks' target and associated scripts, and fix
markup problems identified by checkLinks.py, so that we can rely on the
checklinks script as part of Gitlab CI.

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

** 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

standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification.
* Use an HTML stylesheet derived from the Asciidoctor `colony` theme, with

* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`

* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

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

the Vulkan platform headers, following the split of the headers into
platform-specific and non-platform-specific files.

which accidentally duplicated an anchor in the pipelines chapter. There
were no reference to this anchor, fortunately.

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.

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.

standalone `GL_KHR_shader_subgroup` specification.

slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
* `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`

Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.

Alternatively, to query the supported device group presentation modes for a
surface combined with select other fixed swapchain creation parameters,
call:
include::../../api/protos/vkGetDeviceGroupSurfacePresentModes2EXT.txt[]
* pname:device is the logical device.
* pname:pSurfaceInfo points to an instance of the
VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR structure, describing the surface and
other fixed parameters that would be consumed by vkCreateSwapchainKHR.
* pname:pModes is a pointer to a value of type
tlink:VkDeviceGroupPresentModeFlagsKHR that is filled with the supported
device group present modes for the surface.
fname:vkGetDeviceGroupSurfacePresentModes2EXT behaves similarly to
flink:vkGetDeviceGroupSurfacePresentModesKHR, with the ability to specify
extended inputs via chained input structures.

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.

* `VK_EXT_vertex_attrib_divisor`

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`

structures.
If pname:pRects is `NULL`, then the number of rectangles used when
presenting the given pname:surface is returned in pname:pRectCount.
Otherwise, pname:pRectCount must: point to a variable set by the user to the
number of elements in the pname:pRects array, and on return the variable is
overwritten with the number of structures actually written to pname:pRects.
If the value of pname:pRectCount is less than the number of rectangles, at
most pname:pRectCount structures will be written.
If pname:pRectCount is smaller than the number of rectangles used for the
given pname:surface, ename:VK_INCOMPLETE will be returned instead of
ename:VK_SUCCESS to indicate that not all the available values were
returned.
The values returned by this command are not invariant, and may: change in
response to the surface being moved, resized, or occluded.
The rectangles returned by this command must: not overlap.

* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a

* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:
* `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
* `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

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`
