* 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 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>>`
* Update release number to 97.
Public Issues:
* Add a special case to the <<renderpass-compatibility, Render Pass
Compatibility>> rules allowing single-subpass renderpasses to be
compatible even if they have different resolve attachment references
(public issue 835).
* Fix the miss shader binding table record address rule in the
<<shader-binding-table-indexing-rules, Miss Shaders>> section to index
by code:missIndex, not code:sbtOffset (public issue 875).
Internal Issues:
* Add a missing anchor to the elink:VkSamplerCreateFlagBits language
(internal issue 1483).
* Add missing implicit valid usage include for slink:VkHdrMetadataEXT and
corresponding `noautovalidity` attributes in `vk.xml` for the
externally-defined metadata properties (internal issue 1514).
* Remove restrictions on the `mask` parameter of SPIR-V's
code:OpGroupNonUniformXor in the <<spirvenv-module-validation,
Validation Rules within a Module>> appendix (internal merge request
2971).
* Restore `noautovalidity` attribute for
slink:VkPipelineViewportWScalingStateCreateInfoNV::pname:pViewportWScalings
in `vk.xml` (internal merge request 2975).
* Update copyright dates on Khronos-copyrighted files to 2019 (internal
merge request 2980).
New Extensions:
* `VK_KHR_depth_stencil_resolve`
* `VK_EXT_buffer_device_address`
* `VK_EXT_memory_budget`
* `VK_EXT_memory_priority`
* `VK_EXT_validation_features`
