* 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).
* Update release number to 108.
Internal Issues:
* Clarify that only external resources can be bound to external memory in
valid usage statements for flink:vkBindBufferMemory,
flink:vkBindImageMemory, slink:VkSparseMemoryBind, and
slink:VkSparseImageMemoryBind (internal issue 1496).
* Move all `vk.xml`requirements for
flink:vkGetDeviceGroupSurfacePresentModes2EXT into
`<<VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive>>` (internal issue 1622).
* Add some missing valid usage statements for
flink:vkCmdEndQueryIndexedEXT (internal issue 1638).
* Specify rules for defining "`New Flags and Bitmask Types`" in that
section of the style guide (internal issue 1649).
* Add a comment to the `vk.xml` extension block for
`VK_ANDROID_native_buffer` explaining why the extension is tagged
`"disabled"` (internal issue 1657).
* Fix typos in the description of slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal
issue 1661).
* Modify valid usage statements for slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo to fix the
description about the restriction for pname:baseArrayLayer and
pname:layerCount from pname:extent.depth to the depth of mipmap level
while creating a 2D array image view on a 3D image.
* Forbid structures that contain opaque types (images or samplers) in the
SPIR-V <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>>
section.
* Minor editorial changes for the `VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace` extension
in the description of slink:VkColorSpace KHR and `vk.xml`, including:
** Consistently specify which function (OETF or Inverse-EOTF) is being
defined;
** Remove the Display P3 EOTF, since no other EOTFs are defined;
** Include luminance range for the HLG OETF;
** Remove a duplicated paragraph; and,
** Rename ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_DISPLAY_P3_LINEAR_EXT, leaving the old
ename:VK_COLOR_SPACE_DCI_P3_LINEAR_EXT token as an alias.
New Extensions:
* `<<VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples_coverage_reduction_mode>>`
* `<<VK_KHR_uniform_buffer_standard_layout>>`
