* Update release number to 124.
Github Issues:
* Fix Makefile SPECREMARK macro to work when not building in a git tree
(public issue 992).
* Ignore pname:aspectMask for unused attachments in
slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR valid usage statements (public pull
request 1028).
* Minor markup / spelling fixes (public pull requests 1035, 1045).
Internal Issues:
* Fix markup in Valid Usage statement for slink:VkCreateFramebuffer
(internal issue 1823).
* Add a new <<synchronization-signal-operation-order, _signal operation
order_>> section to the synchronization chapter which describes in
detail the ordering guarantees provided by the API between fence and
semaphore signal operations (internal merge request 3368).
* Move generated `appendix/meta/` files into the Makefile GENERATED
directory (internal merge request 3381).
New Extensions
* `<<VK_KHR_shader_clock>>`
* `<<VK_KHR_timeline_semaphore>>`
* Update release number to 121.
Github Issues:
* Add missing `structextends` attribute in `vk.xml` for
slink:VkPhysicalDevicePipelineExecutablePropertiesFeaturesKHR (public
issue 1018).
* Change attributes of flink:vkCmdCopyAccelerationStructureNV,
flink:vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV,
flink:vkCmdBuildAccelerationStructureNV, and flink:vkCmdTraceRaysNV to
require that these commands execute outside renderpasses (public issue
1021).
* Add an issue to the `<<VK_EXT_buffer_device_address>>` appendix
discussing the introduction of new names and aliasing by equivalent old
names (public pull request 1024).
Internal Issues:
* Protect the `VK_KHR_sampler_mirror_clamp_to_edge` extension with
asciidoctor conditionals, and remove it from the core-only specification
builds, where it had previously been force-included in the Makefile. It
is now treated like any other extension (internal issue 1776).
* Edit some asciidoctor anchor names starting with `features-features-` to
just start with `features-`, since the old chapters was split into 3
pieces. There are still some mild naming inconsistencies with anchors
which may be addressed in the future (internal issue 1792).
* Add `KHR` alias for the non-suffixed extension token
ename:VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE, for compatibility
with naming rules for extensions (internal issue 1796).
* Clarify requirements for external memory in NOTEs for
sname:VkExternalMemoryBufferCreateInfo, and valid usage statements for
flink:vkBindBufferMemory, slink:VkBindBufferMemoryInfo,
flink:vkBindImageMemory, and slink:VkBindImageMemoryInfo (internal merge
request 3301).
* Make extension version numbers in `vk.xml` and extension appendices
consistent. In a few cases, we could not recover history at this
granularity, and left the summary of a version's change undefined
(internal merge request 3323).
* Fix invocation of `CodeInlineMacro` in the Ruby extension backing the
`code:` macro, which was delegating to the wrong base class (internal
merge request 3331).
* Modify `reg.py` to do a better job of recognizing equivalent <enum>
definitions.
* Add a `sortorder` attribute to XML feature and extension tags.
New Extensions
* `<<VK_AMD_device_coherent_memory>>`
* 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`
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).
