521e98405f Change log for August 17, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.120 spec update:
* Update release number to 120.

Github Issues:

  * Add slink:VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV explicitly to extension XML for
    `<<VK_NV_ray_tracing>>` (public issue 848).
  * Add missing valid usage statements for feature flags in
    slink:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo (public pull request 1017).

Internal Issues:

  * Clarify behavior of non-premultiplied destination colors for
    `<<VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced>>` prior to the definition of
    slink:VkBlendOverlapEXT (internal issue 1766).
  * Fix the confusing phrasing "`no other queue must: be (doing something)`"
    for flink:vkQueuePresentKHR, flink:vkQueueSubmit, and
    flink:vkQueueBindSparse (internal issue 1774).
  * Add `<<VK_EXT_validation_features>>` flag to enable best practices
    checks, which will soon be available in the validation layer (internal
    issue 1779).
  * Specify allowed characters for VUID tag name components in the style
    guide (internal issue 1788).
  * Update links to SPIR-V extension specifications, and parameterize their
    markup in case the URLs change in the future (internal issue 1797).
  * Fix an off-by-one error in the valid usage statement for
    slink:VkPipelineExecutableInfoKHR (internal merge request 3303).
  * Clean up markup indentation not matching the style guide (internal merge
    request 3314).
  * Minor script updates to allow refpage aliases, generate a dynamic TOC
    for refpages, generate Apache rewrite rules for aliases, open external
    links from refpages in a new window, and synchronize with the OpenCL
    scripts. This will shortly enable a paned navigation setup for refpages,
    similar to the OpenCL 2.2 refpages (internal merge request 3322).
  * Script updates to add tests to the checker, refactor and reformat code,
    generate better text for some valid usage statements, use more Pythonic
    idioms, and synchronize with the OpenXR scripts (internal merge request
    3239).
  * Script updates and minor fixes in spec language to not raise checker
    errors for refpage markup of pages not existing in the API, such as
    VKAPI_NO_STDINT_H. Remove corresponding suppression of some
    check_spec_links.py tests from .gitlab-ci.yml and 'allchecks' target
    (internal merge request 3315).

57b7cd572d Change log for July 14, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.115 spec update:
* Update release number to 115.

GitHub issues:

  * Add valid usage statements to slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet and
    slink:VkCopyDescriptorSet specifying that updating immutable descriptors
    with ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_SAMPLER is invalid, and that updating
    ename:VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_COMBINED_IMAGE_SAMPLER ignores the update's
    samplers (public issue 985).
  * Document that the `manhtmlpages` target requires building with all
    extensions enabled, in `BUILD.adoc` (public issue 992).
  * Fix reference to the wrong subpass in valid usage statement for
    slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo (public pull request 994).

Internal Issues:

  * Rename slink:VkPhysicalDeviceShaderIntegerFunctions2INTEL and
    ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_SHADER_INTEGER_FUNCTIONS2_FEATURES_INTEL
    for consistency with global naming conventions, and to help code
    generation in other projects (internal issue 1685).
  * Update valid usage statements for image code:Offset / code:ConstOffset
    usage in the <<textures-gather, Texel Gathering>> and
    <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
    sections, and for the <<limits-minTexelGatherOffset>> and
    <<limits-maxTexelGatherOffset>> limits (internal issue 1723).
  * Require code:code:OpGroupNonUniformBroadcast to take a constant `Id`
    operand in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a
    Module>> sections (internal issue 1726).
  * Note that the swapchain specified in slink:VkImageSwapchainCreateInfoKHR
    when creating an image must match the one specified in
    slink:VkBindImageMemorySwapchainInfoKHR when binding memory to the image
    (internal issue 1729).
  * Remove stext:KHR suffix from some structure cross-references that were
    promoted to Vulkan 1.1 (internal issue 1730).
  * Fix structure name in `structextends` attribute for
    slink:VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT in `vk.xml`
    (internal issue 1740).
  * Fix an error in the code:ClipColor() pseudocode for
    <<VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced>> (internal issue 1741).
  * Add a row for
    ename:VK_QUERY_TYPE_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_COMPACTED_SIZE_NV to the
    description of elink:VkQueryType, and make a few related minor text
    cleanups.
  * Rename slink:VkPhysicalDeviceFloat16Int8FeaturesKHR to
    slink:VkPhysicalDeviceShaderFloat16Int8FeaturesKHR for consistency,
    retaining aliases of the old structure name and structure type enum for
    backwards compatibility.

5abf83f95d Change log for April 16, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.107 spec update:
* Update release number to 107.

Public Issues:

  * Fix revision date for the `<<VK_AMD_gpu_shader_half_float>>` appendix
    (public issue 617).
  * Make <<synchronization-pipeline-barriers-subpass-self-dependencies,
    subpass self-dependencies>> less restrictive (public issue 777).
  * Fix the `<<VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive>>` dependency on
    `<<VK_KHR_win32_surface>>` in `vk.xml` (public pull request 849).
  * Remove single-page (`apispec.html`) refpage sub-targets from the
    Makefile `allman` target and the build instructions. The target is still
    present in the Makefile, but we have not been actively maintaining the
    single-page document and do not promise it will work. The full
    Specification and the individual API reference pages are what we support
    and publish at present (public issue 949).

Internal Issues:

  * De-duplicate common valid usage statements shared by multiple commands
    or structures by using asciidoctor includes and dynamically assigning
    part of the valid usage ID based on which command or structure they're
    being applied to (internal issue 779).
  * Add reference pages for constructs not part of the formal API, such as
    platform calling convention macros, and script changes supporting them
    This required suppressing some check_spec_links warning classes in order
    to pass CI, until a more sophisticated fix can be done (internal issue
    888).
  * Change math notation for the elink:VkPrimitiveTopology descriptions to
    use short forms `v` and `p` instead of `vertex` and `primitive`,
    increasing legibility (internal issue 1611).
  * Rewrite generated file includes relative to a globally specified path,
    fixing some issues with refpage generation (internal issue 1630).
  * Update contributor list for `<<VK_EXT_calibrated_timestamps>>`.
  * Fix use of pathlin in `scripts/generator.py` so the script will work on
    Windows under Python 3.5 (internal merge request 3107).
  * Add missing conditionals around the
    <<descriptorsets-accelerationstructure, Acceleration Structure>>
    section (internal merge request 3108).
  * More script synchronization with OpenXR spec repository (internal merge
    request 3109).
  * Mark the `<<VK_AMD_gpu_shader_half_float>>` and
    `<<VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16>>` extensions as deprecated in `vk.xml` and
    the corresponding extension appendices (internal merge request 3112).

New Extensions:

  * `<<VK_EXT_headless_surface>>`

f1a7c4b4f3 Change log for January 13, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.98 spec update:
* Update release number to 98.

Public Issues:

  * Fix missing markup in flink:vkDestroyPipelineLayout valid usage
    statement (pull request 882).
  * Add missing contributors for `<<VK_EXT_buffer_device_address>>` (public
    pull request 891).

Internal Issues:

  * Detect nested bullet points in valid usage blocks and warn about them
    during VUID assignment (internal issue 1382).
  * Update the style guide to document the process for reserving new bits in
    bitmask types (internal issue 1411).
  * Clarify for slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:apiVersion and in the
    <<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core
    Versions>> section when it is valid for an application to use a certain
    version of Vulkan API functionality (for an instance and for a
    device/physical device); and when the validation layers must generate an
    error (internal issue 1412).
  * Add optional <<memory-model-availability-visibility, transitive
    availability/visibility operations to the memory model, including a new
    pname:vulkanMemoryModelAvailabilityVisibilityChains feature for
    slink:VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR (internal issue
    1460).
  * Add the code:StorageBuffer storage class to those in the
    <<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> (internal
    issue 1480).
  * Add missing `returnedonly` tags for a number of returned extension
    structures that can be passed in pname:pNext chains (internal issue
    1515).
  * Clean up and rearrange some spec language for
    slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo and slink:VkAttachmentReference.txt
    (internal issue 1522).
  * Correctly round the code:OpVectorTimesScalar and
    code:OpMatrixTimesScalar SPIR-V operations in the <<Precision of core
    SPIR-V Instructions>> table (internal merge request 2996).
  * Work around cases in flink:vkCmdBeginTransformFeedbackEXT,
    flink:vkCmdEndTransformFeedbackEXT, and
    slink:VkPipelineCoverageModulationStateCreateInfoNV where an array
    parameter is `optional` but the length is not in `vk.xml`. This is an
    interim fix using `noautovalidity` + handcoded VU replacing those that
    should be autogenerated (internal issue 2944 and
    https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-ValidationLayers/issues/480).
  * Remove redundant capability validation of the code:float16 and code:int8
    SPIR-V capabilities from the <<spirvenv-capabilities, Capabilities>>
    section, since they are already covered in the preceding table.
  * Update check_spec_links script, including validation for reference page
    open blocks. Fix errors identified by the script.

9a8314cd41 Restructure the repository to put the specification Makefile and
associated material at the top level, vk.xml and associated material in
xml/, and generated include and source files in include/vulkan/ and
src/ext_loader/, respectively (public issue 436).
