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`	2017-05-20 17:00:50 -07:00
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`	2017-05-12 01:37:16 -07:00
Jon Leech	fd0e4c3b67	Change log for February 27, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.42 spec update: ... * Bump API patch number and header version number to 42 for this update (the first anniversary edition). Github Issues: * Changed asciidoctor macros so cross-page links in the standalone reference pages function properly (public issue 462). Internal Issues: * Clarified host visibility discussion for slink:VkMemoryType, flink:vkInvalidateMappedMemoryRanges, elink:VkAccessFlagBits, and the <<synchronization-framebuffer-regions,Framebuffer Region Dependencies>> section, removing duplicated information and adding a central definition in the access types section (internal issue 552). * Change description of slink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfacePresentModesKHR::pname:pPresentModes to return an array of values, not structures (internal issue 699). New Extensions: * Add a NOTE to the <<extensions,Layers & Extensions>> chapter describing the experimental status of `KHX` extensions. * Add new Khronos, Khronos Experimental, and vendor Vulkan extensions for release at GDC: ** VK_KHR_descriptor_update_template ** VK_KHR_push_descriptor ** VK_KHX_device_group ** VK_KHX_device_group_creation ** VK_KHX_external_memory ** VK_KHX_external_memory_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_memory_fd ** VK_KHX_external_memory_win32 ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_capabilities ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_fd ** VK_KHX_external_semaphore_win32 ** VK_KHX_multiview ** VK_KHX_win32_keyed_mutex ** VK_EXT_discard_rectangles ** VK_MVK_ios_surface ** VK_MVK_macos_surface ** VK_NVX_multiview_per_view_attributes ** VK_NV_clip_space_w_scaling ** VK_NV_geometry_shader_passthrough ** VK_NV_sample_mask_override_coverage ** VK_NV_viewport_array2 ** VK_NV_viewport_swizzle * Add new GLSL vendor extensions to support new builtin variables: ** GL_EXT_device_group ** GL_EXT_multiview	2017-02-26 22:54:26 -08:00
