* Update release number to 98.
Public Issues:
* Fix missing markup in flink:vkDestroyPipelineLayout valid usage
statement (pull request 882).
* Add missing contributors for `<<VK_EXT_buffer_device_address>>` (public
pull request 891).
Internal Issues:
* Detect nested bullet points in valid usage blocks and warn about them
during VUID assignment (internal issue 1382).
* Update the style guide to document the process for reserving new bits in
bitmask types (internal issue 1411).
* Clarify for slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:apiVersion and in the
<<fundamentals-validusage-versions, Valid Usage for Newer Core
Versions>> section when it is valid for an application to use a certain
version of Vulkan API functionality (for an instance and for a
device/physical device); and when the validation layers must generate an
error (internal issue 1412).
* Add optional <<memory-model-availability-visibility, transitive
availability/visibility operations to the memory model, including a new
pname:vulkanMemoryModelAvailabilityVisibilityChains feature for
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR (internal issue
1460).
* Add the code:StorageBuffer storage class to those in the
<<interfaces-resources-descset, Descriptor Set Interface>> (internal
issue 1480).
* Add missing `returnedonly` tags for a number of returned extension
structures that can be passed in pname:pNext chains (internal issue
1515).
* Clean up and rearrange some spec language for
slink:VkRenderPassCreateInfo and slink:VkAttachmentReference.txt
(internal issue 1522).
* Correctly round the code:OpVectorTimesScalar and
code:OpMatrixTimesScalar SPIR-V operations in the <<Precision of core
SPIR-V Instructions>> table (internal merge request 2996).
* Work around cases in flink:vkCmdBeginTransformFeedbackEXT,
flink:vkCmdEndTransformFeedbackEXT, and
slink:VkPipelineCoverageModulationStateCreateInfoNV where an array
parameter is `optional` but the length is not in `vk.xml`. This is an
interim fix using `noautovalidity` + handcoded VU replacing those that
should be autogenerated (internal issue 2944 and
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-ValidationLayers/issues/480).
* Remove redundant capability validation of the code:float16 and code:int8
SPIR-V capabilities from the <<spirvenv-capabilities, Capabilities>>
section, since they are already covered in the preceding table.
* Update check_spec_links script, including validation for reference page
open blocks. Fix errors identified by the script.

|
This device extension extends flink:vkQueuePresentKHR, from the
|
|
`<<VK_KHR_swapchain>>` extension, allowing an application to specify a list
|
|
of rectangular, modified regions of each image to present.
|
|
This should be used in situations where an application is only changing a
|
|
small portion of the presentable images within a swapchain, since it enables
|
|
the presentation engine to avoid wasting time presenting parts of the
|
|
surface that haven't changed.
|
|
|
|
This extension is leveraged from the `EGL_KHR_swap_buffers_with_damage`
|
|
extension.

=== Issues
|
|
|
|
1) How should we handle steroescopic-3D swapchains? We need to add a layer
|
|
for each rectangle.
|
|
One approach is to create another struct that contains the slink:VkRect2D
|
|
plus layer, and have slink:VkPresentRegionsKHR point to an array of that
|
|
struct.
|
|
Another approach is to have two parallel arrays, ptext:pRectangles and
|
|
ptext:pLayers, where ptext:pRectangles[i] and ptext:pLayers[i] must be used
|
|
together.
|
|
Which approach should we use, and if the array of a new structure, what
|
|
should that be called?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: Create a new structure, which is a slink:VkRect2D plus a layer,
|
|
and will be called slink:VkRectLayerKHR.
|
|
|
|
2) Where is the origin of the slink:VkRectLayerKHR?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: The upper left corner of the presentable image(s) of the
|
|
swapchain, per the definition of framebuffer coordinates.
|
|
|
|
3) Does the rectangular region, slink:VkRectLayerKHR, specify pixels of the
|
|
swapchain's image(s), or of the surface?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: Of the image(s).
|
|
Some presentation engines may scale the pixels of a swapchain's image(s) to
|
|
the size of the surface.
|
|
The size of the swapchain's image(s) will be consistent, where the size of
|
|
the surface may vary over time.
|
|
|
|
4) What if all of the rectangles for a given swapchain contain a width
|
|
and/or height of zero?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: The application is indicating that no pixels changed since the
|
|
last present.
|
|
The presentation engine may use such a hint and not update any pixels for
|
|
the swapchain.
|
|
However, all other semantics of flink:vkQueuePresentKHR must still be
|
|
honored, including waiting for semaphores to signal.
