Jon Leech 59750fe4c7 Change log for August 25, 2019 Vulkan 1.1.121 spec update:
* Update release number to 121.

Github Issues:

  * Add missing `structextends` attribute in `vk.xml` for
    slink:VkPhysicalDevicePipelineExecutablePropertiesFeaturesKHR (public
    issue 1018).
  * Change attributes of flink:vkCmdCopyAccelerationStructureNV,
    flink:vkCmdWriteAccelerationStructuresPropertiesNV,
    flink:vkCmdBuildAccelerationStructureNV, and flink:vkCmdTraceRaysNV to
    require that these commands execute outside renderpasses (public issue
    1021).
  * Add an issue to the `<<VK_EXT_buffer_device_address>>` appendix
    discussing the introduction of new names and aliasing by equivalent old
    names (public pull request 1024).

Internal Issues:

  * Protect the `VK_KHR_sampler_mirror_clamp_to_edge` extension with
    asciidoctor conditionals, and remove it from the core-only specification
    builds, where it had previously been force-included in the Makefile. It
    is now treated like any other extension (internal issue 1776).
  * Edit some asciidoctor anchor names starting with `features-features-` to
    just start with `features-`, since the old chapters was split into 3
    pieces. There are still some mild naming inconsistencies with anchors
    which may be addressed in the future (internal issue 1792).
  * Add `KHR` alias for the non-suffixed extension token
    ename:VK_SAMPLER_ADDRESS_MODE_MIRROR_CLAMP_TO_EDGE, for compatibility
    with naming rules for extensions (internal issue 1796).
  * Clarify requirements for external memory in NOTEs for
    sname:VkExternalMemoryBufferCreateInfo, and valid usage statements for
    flink:vkBindBufferMemory, slink:VkBindBufferMemoryInfo,
    flink:vkBindImageMemory, and slink:VkBindImageMemoryInfo (internal merge
    request 3301).
  * Make extension version numbers in `vk.xml` and extension appendices
    consistent. In a few cases, we could not recover history at this
    granularity, and left the summary of a version's change undefined
    (internal merge request 3323).
  * Fix invocation of `CodeInlineMacro` in the Ruby extension backing the
    `code:` macro, which was delegating to the wrong base class (internal
    merge request 3331).
  * Modify `reg.py` to do a better job of recognizing equivalent <enum>
    definitions.
  * Add a `sortorder` attribute to XML feature and extension tags.

New Extensions

  * `<<VK_AMD_device_coherent_memory>>`

Vulkan Asciidoc Configuration Files

Macros

The macros in spec-macros.rb and spec-macros/extension.rb are described in the "Vulkan Documentation and Extensions: Procedures and Conventions" document (see the styleguide).

Support for Math

Asciidoctor is customized to insert KaTeX <script> tags from math.js for HTML5, and properly pass through math which has \begin{}\/end{} delimiters instead of $$[].

For PDF builds, asciidoctor-mathematical is used to generate

math-docbook.conf is heavily conditionalized depending on whether the final output format (which should be described in the a2x-format variable) is pdf or not, since Docbook passes through math differently to dblatex vs. the XHTML stylesheets. This could be simplified now that we're only using Docbook for PDFs.

Stylesheets

khronos.css is the stylesheet used for HTML output.

Chunked Spec Index

chunkindex contains scripts for building and using a search index for the Vulkan chunked HTML specification.
