Jon Leech cebb71d062 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).

New Extensions:

  * `VK_AMD_texture_gather_bias_lod`

Jon Leech 685295031d 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`

Jon Leech 82e0f83d43 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.

Jon Leech ca4abe0d34 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.

Jon Leech 789549ff08 Change log for November 25, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.35 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 35 for this update.

Github Issues:

  * Document in the <<memory-device-hostaccess,Host Access>> section that
    mapping and unmapping does not invalidate or flush the mapped memory
    (public issues 27, 126).
  * Redefine the entire <<synchronization>> chapter in terms of consistent
    and well defined terminology, that's called out at the start of the
    chapter. This terminology is applied equally to all synchronization
    types, including subpass dependencies, submissions, and much of the
    implicit ordering stuff dotted around the spec. Key terms are laid out
    in the <<synchronization-dependencies,Execution and Memory
    Dependencies>> section at the top of the rewritten chapter (public
    issues 128, 131, 132, 217, 299, 300, 302, 306, 322, 346, 347, 371, 407).
  * Specify order of submission for batches in the
    <<vkQueueSubmit,vkQueueSubmit>> and
    <<vkQueueBindSparse,vkQueueBindSparse>> commands (public issue 371).
  * Add valid usage statements to each of the WSI extension sections
    indicating that the WSI-specific structure parameters must be valid, and
    remove automatically generated valid usage statements now covered by the
    manual sections (public issue 383).
  * Clarify render pass compatibility for flink:vkCmdExecuteCommands (public
    issue 390).

Internal Issues:

  * Update +vk.xml+ to make previously explicit valid usage statements for
    <<vkDebugReportMessageEXT,vkDebugReportMessageEXT>> implicit instead
    (internal issue 553).
  * Add valid usage statement for slink:VkCreateImageInfo preventing
    creation of 1D sparse images (internal issue 573).
  * Fix Python scripts to always read/write files in utf-8 encoding, and a
    logic error in reflib.py which could cause a fatal error for
    malstructured asciidoc (internal issues 578, 586).
2016-11-26 02:33:44 -08:00
Jon Leech 6cdc56d0d7 Change log for November 11, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.33 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 33 for this update.

Github Issues:

  * Added implicit external synchronization parameters to
    vkBegin/EndCommandBuffer, and fixed missing command pool host
    synchronization from per-command lists (public issue 398).
  * Started using git tags including the spec release number, such as
    'v1.0.32-core', instead of tags including the date of release, such as
    'v1.0-core-20161025' (public issue 405).

Internal Issues:

  * Add validity constraint for
    slink:VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV::pname:handle (internal issue
    #480).
  * Add scripts to compare two Vulkan HTML specifications, derived from W3
    htmldiff service (internal issue 525).
  * Relax requirement that memoryTypeBits can't depend on format, to allow
    it to differ only for depth/stencil formats (internal issue 544).
  * Add a new generator script to create a simple extension loader for
    Vulkan based on +vk.xml+ (internal issue 558).
  * Add the overlooked requirement that buffer and image memory
    alignment requirements must be a power of two in the
    <<resources-association,Resource Memory Association>> section
    (internal issue 569).

Other Issues:

  * Add a naming rule to the style guide for members of extension structures
    defining array lengths which are the same as array lengths of the core
    structure they are chained from.
  * Add a new generator to create a simple extension loader in
    +src/ext_loader/vulkan_ext.[ch]+ from +vk.xml+. This code can be
    included in your project, and is expected to be packaged in the Vulkan
    SDK provided by LunarG in the future.

Jon Leech 348990517c 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.
2016-09-30 21:13:37 -07:00
Jon Leech 95dd2f34c5 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).
2016-09-24 01:54:47 -07:00
Jon Leech ef053e7c82 Change log for September 16, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.27 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 27 for this update.

Github Issues:

  * Weaken flink:vkGetPipelineCacheData invariance conditions; previous
    conditions were stronger than agreed and can't be guaranteed (public
    issue 280).
  * Add link to "Vulkan Loader Specification and Architecture Overview"
    document to Normative References section (public issue 359).

Internal Issues:

  * Be more clear in the <<interfaces-resources-layout-std140, uniform
    buffer layout>> section that block offsets can be out of order
    (internal issue 396).
  * Document that extension authors should add support for their extensions
    to the validation layers (internal issue 398).
  * Clarify that the valid range of depth clear values should be limited
    to the 0..1 range and that copies to depth aspect must also be in this
    range (internal issue 412).
  * Specify ``a'' vs. ``an'' use in the style guide (internal issue 432).
  * Increase the maximum pname:nonCoherentAtomSize value in the
    <<features-limits-required,Required Limits>> section from 128 to 256
    (internal issue 435).
  * Fix vk_platform.h for compiler errors on some Android platforms
    (internal issue 441).
  * Clarify that slink:VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures::pname:pEnabledFeatures ==
    `NULL` disables all features, including the "required" feature
    pname:robustBufferAccess (internal issue 479).

Other Issues:

  * Expand style guide and make it more self-consistent.
  * Use ISO 8601 date format everywhere.
  * Emphasise the correct way of using
    slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR::pname:maxImageCount.
  * Added +VK_EXT_validation_flags+ extension for validation flag mechanism.
  * Fix an <<credits,author credit>> to include their current employer.
2016-09-16 21:22:17 -07:00
Jon Leech eaea7d2709 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.

Jon Leech 85184f305a Change log for August 26, 2016 Vulkan 1.0.25 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 25 for this update.
  * Structurally change the specification so that multiple extensions are
    included in the +1.0+ git branch, and specifications will include or not
    include those extensions at build time based on options passed to the
    Makefile. See +doc/specs/vulkan/README.html+ and the ``Layers and
    Extensions'' section of the ``Vulkan Documentation and Extensions''
    document for more information on this change.
  * Register and publish new extensions in the single-branch form:
  ** +VK_NV_external_memory_capabilities+
  ** +VK_NV_external_memory+
  ** +VK_NV_external_memory_win32+
  ** +VK_NV_win32_keyed_mutex+

Github Issues:

  * Clarify description of GetInstanceProcAddr and GetDeviceProcAddr (public
    issue 212).
  * Add SPIR-V <<textures-operation-validation, instruction validation>> for
    single-sampled images (public issue 316).
  * Fix spelling of ``tesselation'' in a few places and note it as an
    exception to the American spelling rules convention (public issue
    327).
  * Fix Makefile to create output directory for ``styleguide''
    target (public issue 329).
  * Fix numerous minor issues with incorrectly tags on enumerant names and
    table titles (public issue 330).
  * Generate specversion.txt date in UTC time and RFC 2822 format
    (public issue 335).
  * Convert link to the SPIR-V Specification for
    flink:VkShaderModuleCreateInfo into an internal link to the normative
    reference (public issue 336).
  * Add ename:VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY error code to
    flink:vkCreateDebugReportCallbackEXT (public issue 337).

Internal Issues:

  * Update style guide regarding use of code:NULL and dname:VK_NULL_HANDLE
    (internal issue 393).
  * Change the definition of latexmath:[$q$] in the
    <<textures-image-level-selection,texture image level selection>> section
    to be the index of the maximum defined level for the view, not the
    number of levels in the view (internal issue 406).
  * Allow developers to override dname:VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE
    with their own binary-compatible definition (internal issue 439).
  * Fix +vk_platform.h+ conditional logic causing compile failure with some
    Android compilers (internal issue 441).
  * Implement the single-branch model as described above (internal issue
    461).
