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.

*Overview*::
+VK_KHR_maintenance1+ adds a collection of minor features that were
intentionally left out or overlooked from the original Vulkan 1.0 release.
The new features are as follows:
* Allow 2D and 2D array image views to be created from 3D images, which
can then be used as color framebuffer attachments.
This allows applications to render to slices of a 3D image.
* Support flink:vkCmdCopyImage between 2D array layers and 3D slices.
This extension allows copying from layers of a 2D array image to slices
of a 3D image and vice versa.
* Allow negative height to be specified in the
slink::VkViewport::pname:height field to perform y-inversion of the
clip-space to framebuffer-space transform.
This allows apps to avoid having to use gl_Position.y = -gl_Position.y
in shaders also targeting other APIs.
* Allow implementations to express support for doing just transfers and
clears of image formats that they otherwise support no other format
features for.
This is done by adding new format feature flags
ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_TRANSFER_SRC_BIT_KHR and
ename:VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_TRANSFER_DST_BIT_KHR.
* Support flink:vkCmdFillBuffer on transfer-only queues.
Previously flink:vkCmdFillBuffer was defined to only work on command
buffers allocated from command pools which support graphics or compute
queues.
It is now allowed on queues that just support transfer operations.
* Fix the inconsistency of how error conditions are returned between the
flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines and flink:vkCreateComputePipelines
functions and the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets and
flink:vkAllocateCommandBuffers functions.
* Add new ename:VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_POOL_MEMORY_KHR error so implementations
can give a more precise reason for flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets
failures.
* Add a new command flink:vkTrimCommandPoolKHR which gives the
implementation an opportunity to release any unused command pool memory
back to the system.
