Jon Leech 22a5a1459f Change log for October 6, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.124 spec update:
* 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>>`

The `VK_KHR_vulkan_memory_model` extension allows use of the
<<memory-model,Vulkan Memory Model>>, which formally defines how to
synchronize memory accesses to the same memory locations performed by
multiple shader invocations.
=== New Enum Constants
* Extending elink:VkStructureType:
** ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_VULKAN_MEMORY_MODEL_FEATURES_KHR
=== New Structures
* slink:VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR
[NOTE]
.Note
====
Version 3 of the spec added a member
(pname:vulkanMemoryModelAvailabilityVisibilityChains) to
slink:VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeaturesKHR, which is an incompatible
change from version 2.
