* 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`
* 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`
* Update release number to 73.
Github Issues:
* Refine swapchain association with surface for slink:VkSwapchainKHR, with
matching valid usage statements for slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR and
discussion following the <<swapchain-wsi-image-create-info>> table
(public issue 637).
* Re-remove several valid usage statements from slink:VkImageCreateInfo
that had previously been removed at the time that
ename:VK_IMAGE_CREATE_EXTENDED_USAGE_BIT was introduced. These
statements had incorrectly been restored due to an glitch while merging
from the old `1.0` branch to the current `master` branch (public issue
683).
Internal Issues:
* Fix reference page generation and configure build to generate reference
pages 1.1 with all extensions, rather than core only, as was the case
for the 1.0 ref pages (internal issues 484, 1056, 1205).
* Require that
slink:VkMemoryDedicatedRequirements::pname:prefersDedicateAllocation is
ename:VK_TRUE when
slink:VkMemoryDedicatedRequirements::pname:requiresDedicateAllocation is
ename:VK_TRUE (internal issue 1222).
* Fix Ruby extension code so `diff_html` Makefile target works (internal
issue 1230).
* Update `genRelease` script to generate 1.1 + all extensions reference
pages - but not the single-page HTML / PDF versions, which are even
larger than the API spec (internal issue 1245).
Other Issues:
* Add missing attributes to `vk.xml` for `VK_ANDROID_native_buffer`.
* Specify that the slink:VkAttachmentDescription::pname:format member is
the format of the image *view* that will be used for the attachment.
* Use core sname:VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 in the `structextends` `vk.xml`
attribute for sname:VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeaturesEXT and
sname:VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingPropertiesEXT, rather than the
KHR equivalent it was promoted from.
* Fix the "`Fragment Input Attachment Interface`" glossary entry to match
the specification body.
* Clarify the interaction of sRGB images used as storage or texel buffers
with <<textures-output-format-conversion, Texel Output Format
Conversion>>.
* Moved three valid usage statements from
slink:VkRenderPassMultiviewCreateInfo up to
slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo, and added a new valid usage statement for
slink:VkRenderPassInputAttachmentAspectCreateInfo.
* Added valid usage statements for slink:VkBufferMemoryBarrier and
slink:VkImageMemoryBarrier reflecting the global requirement that
"`non-sparse resources must be bound to memory before being recorded to
command`".
New Extensions:
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).
