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>>` |

Change log for March 18, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.104 spec update:
* Update release number to 104. Public Issues: * Remove the incorrect line from "`Initial`" to "`Invalid`" state in the <<commandbuffer-lifecycle-diagram, Lifecycle of a command buffer>> diagram (public issue 881). * Add Fuchsia platform to <<boilerplate-wsi-header-table, Window System Extensions and Headers>> table (public pull request 933). * Change the type of slink:VkBufferDeviceAddressCreateInfoEXT::pname:deviceAddress from basetype:VkDeviceSize to basetype:VkDeviceAddress. These are both typedefs of code:uint64_t, so it is an ABI-compatible change (public issue 934). Internal Issues: * Remove generated header files and update the CI tests to build a copy of the headers for use by the hpp-generate / hpp-compile CI stages. Targets to generate the headers will not be removed, but keeping these generated files in the repository increased the frequency of conflicts between branches when merging to master (internal issue 745). * Reword "`undefined: behavior if *action*" to "`must: not do *action*`" in the places the old terminology was used, and add a new <<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section of the style guide to explain how to write such language in the future (internal issue 1579). * Move almost all Python scripts into the toplevel `scripts/` directory. Apply extensive internal edits to clean up and simplify the scripts, and try to follow PEP8 guidelines. Generalize the scripts with the use of a Conventions object controlling many aspects of output generation, to enable their use in other Khronos projects with similar requirements. Autogenerate extension interface refpages (these are experimental and may be retired going forward). New Extensions: * `VK_AMD_display_native_hdr` * `VK_EXT_full_screen_exclusive` (internal issue 1439) * `VK_EXT_host_query_reset` * `VK_EXT_pipeline_creation_feedback` (internal issue 1560) * `VK_KHR_surface_protected_capabilities` (internal issue 1520) |

Change log for November 18, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.93 spec update:
* Update release number to 93. Public Issues: * Add spec language for ename:VK_INDEX_TYPE_NONE_NV and fix up slink:VkAccelerationStructureTypeNV (public issue 848). * Add missing suffix in description of slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR parameters (public pull request 851). * Fix miscellaneous typos (public pull request 855). * Add driver ID for Pastel (public pull request 856). * Add missing include directive for slink:VkMemoryWin32HandlePropertiesKHR implicit valid usage statements (public pull request 857). Internal Issues: * Restrict the storage classes permitted for SPIR-V atomics to what is actually supported, in the <<spirvenv-module-validation, Validation Rules within a Module>> section (internal issue 1123). * Add a missing Valid Usage statement to slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo for the case pname:stencilLoadOp == ename:VK_LOAD_OP_CLEAR, pname:layout == ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_STENCIL_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL (internal issue 1408). * Modify optimize-pdf script and Makefile to retain non-optimized original PDF on errors (internal issue 1435). * Add <<spirvenv-module-validation, SPIR-V validation rules>> stating that only the listed code:BuiltIn decorations are permitted, and only when relevante features and extensions are enabled (internal issue 1449). * Remove some duplicated Valid Usage IDs created via cut & paste error (internal issue 1455). * Build HTML output for extension reference pages (internal issue 1461). ** Improve genRef.py handling of aliases defined inside other refpages. ** Emit aliases in pygenerator.py. ** Add XML noautovalidity flag for VkRenderPassCreateFlags until there are some corresponding FlagBits defined. ** Corrected types= attribute on some refpage blocks to 'flags' ** Added refpage blocks for some missing types detected by CI tests. * Fixed many Valid Usage statement issues in slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, slink:VkSubpassDescription, slink:VkSubpassDescription2KHR, slink:VkSubpassDependency2KHR, flink:vkCmdBeginRenderPass, flink:vkCmdBeginRenderPass2KHR, and slink:VkRenderPassBeginInfo discovered while adding `VK_KHR_create_renderpass2` to the validation layers. New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_scalar_block_layout` * `VK_EXT_separate_stencil_usage` |

Change log for November 12, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.92 spec update:
* Update release number to 92. Public Issues: * Move and modify valid usage statements dealing with pname:aspectMask in flink:vkCmdClearColorImage, flink:vkCmdClearDepthStencilImage, and slink:VkClearAttachment, so they are in places where all necessary information is available (public issue 529). * Fix math markup in <<textures-texel-anisotropic-filtering, Texel Anisotropic Filtering>> (public pull request 840). * Fix misspellings (public pull request 845). Internal Issues: * Add installation instructions and a Makefile "`chunked`" target for chunked HTML generation (internal issue 1352). * Fix pipeline mesh diagram style; also fix a minor bug in the classic pipeline diagram where vertex/index buffers wrongly fed into the vertex shader (internal issue 1436). * Make asciidoctor ERROR output raise an error, and don't suppress executed command output from CI make invocation (internal issue 1454). * Minor typo fixes and clarifications for `VK_NV_raytracing`. * Cleanup extension-specific properties ** Remove duplicated documentation for pname:maxDiscardRectangles, pname:pointClippingBehavior, and pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor (they shouldn't be documented with the other members of slink:VkPhysicalDeviceLimits at all). ** Remove duplicate anchor for pname:maxVertexAttribDivisor ** Consistently document stext:VkPhysicalDevice<Extension>PropertiesKHR *** Always document pname:sType/pname:pNext (was inconsistent before) *** Always mention chaining to slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 (and not as slink:VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2KHR) *** Always include Valid Usage statements last * Update Makefile 'checklinks' target and associated scripts, and fix markup problems identified by checkLinks.py, so that we can rely on the checklinks script as part of Gitlab CI. |

Change log for October 13, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.88 spec update:
* Update release number to 88. Public Issues: * Make clear that tname:PFN_vkDebugUtilsMessengerCallbackEXT::pname:messageTypes is a bitmask, and correct a typo in the spelling of slink:VkDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT.txt::pname:messageType (public pull request 800). * Make an ABI-compatible change of the type of slink:VkPhysicalDeviceDriverPropertiesKHR::pname:driverID to use the new elink:VkDriverIdKHR type (public issue 811). Internal Issues: * Clarify for the <<features-features-shaderStorageImageExtendedFormats>> feature and in the <<spirvenv-capabilities-table>> that the feature means that all of the formats are supported, and that otherwise the features can be queried per-format (internal issue 1273). * Clarified interactions of `VK_EXT_external_memory_host` with host cache management commands and structures flink:vkMapMemory, flink:vkFlushMappedMemoryRanges, slink:VkMappedMemoryRange, and flink:vkUnmapMemory using the new glossary term "`Host Mapped Device Memory`" (internal issue 1385). * Update the language for flink:vkCreateViSurfaceNN.txt describing the pname:currentExtent of a VI surface to more accurately reflect current capabilities, replacing "`undefined`" with more explicit behavior (internal issue 1410). New Extensions: * `VK_EXT_calibrated_timestamps` * `VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier` (this extension was previously disabled in vk.xml, and has now been enabled after some changes to fix performance issues). * `VK_EXT_pci_bus_info` * `VK_EXT_transform_feedback` * `VK_GOOGLE_hlsl_functionality1`, exposing support for `SPV_GOOGLE_hlsl_functionality1`. * `VK_GOOGLE_decorate_string`, exposing support for `SPV_GOOGLE_decorate_string`. |

Change log for October 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.87 spec update:
* Update release number to 87. Public Issues: * Merge flink:vkCmdPipelineBarrier self-dependency barrier VUs referring to the same subpass dependency (public pull request 756). * Describe default value of `"optional"` attribute in the registry schema document (public issue 769) * Fix links in <<VK_NVX_raytracing>> extension (public pull request 805). * Mark the <<VK_KHR_mir_surface>> extension obsolete (see public issue 814 - does not close this, however). * Fix missing endif in Image Creation block (public issue 817). Internal Issues: * Clarify that the compressed texture formats corresponding to <<features-features-textureCompressionETC2>>, <<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR>>, and <<features-features-textureCompressionBC>> is not contingent on the feature bits, and may be supported even if the features are not enabled (internal issue 663). * Clarify that code:FragStencilRefEXT is output only in the <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section (internal issue 1173). * Identify and correct many overly-aggressive uses of "`undefined`", and narrow them down, where straightforward to do so. Mark such resolved uses of "`undefined`" with the custom undefined: macro. Add a new <<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section (internal issue 1267). * Don't require code:inline_uniform_block descriptors to be populated before use in the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets section (internal issue 1380). * Allow suppressing inline SVG images by controlling this with an attribute set in the Makefile, rather than the explicit [%inline] directive (internal issue 1391). * Mark 'Khronos' as a registered trademark in several places, now that it is one. * Fix typo in the <<VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64>> appendix using the GLSL naming of the compare exchange op when referring to the SPIR-V op. * Specify in the flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyProperties section that all implementations must support at least one queue family, and that every queue family must contain at least one queue. * Make slink:VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pname:dynamicStateCount, slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsPerPixel, and slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsCount optional, to fix bogus implicit valid usage checks that were causing failures in the conformance tests. * Fix vendor tag in reserved extension 237 constants. Does not affect anything since it's just a placeholder, but this should avoid further comments. * Minor markup fixes in some extension appendices. New Extensions: * `<<VK_FUCHSIA_imagepipe_surface>>` |

Change log for June 18, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.78 spec update:
* Update release number to 78. Public Issues: * Change markup so parameter descriptions include links to structures, instead of just their names (public issue 697). * Resume publishing updated Vulkan 1.0 + KHR extensions and Vulkan 1.0 + all extensions versions of the specification (public issue 722). * Reapply fixes from public pull request 698 for `VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer`, which accidentally were reverted at some point (public pull request 724). * Fix undefined format valid usage statements for slink:VkImageCreateInfo in the presence of the `VK_ANDROID_external_memory_android_hardware_buffer` extension (public pull request 725). * Miscellaneous markup consistency fixes (public pull request 728).
