* Bump API patch number and header version number to 53 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify mappings of coordinates for mutable, compatible image views in
slink:VkImageViewCreateInfo (internal issue 815).
* Make ename:VK_BIND_SFR_BIT require a logical device with multiple
physical devices, so that standard sparse image block dimensions are
only required on systems that support multi-GPU (internal issue 835).
* Convert all files from use of // refBegin .. // refEnd comments to
delimit ref pages, to use of open blocks, and update style guide
accordingly (internal issue 839).
* Add valid usage for slink:VkWriteDescriptorSet when performing updates
to a ename:VK_STORAGE_IMAGE descriptor with layout
ename:VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL.
* Add a hack to the validity generator script to support an odd
interaction between flink:vkCmdFillBuffer and an extension (internal
issue 853).
* Remove redundant text describing slink:VkBufferCreateInfo::pname:usage,
which was already covered by implicit valid usage (internal issue 854).
* Update implicit validity generator script to properly handle the
pname:sType and pname:pNext members of "returnedonly" structures
(internal issue 874).
* Note that slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pApplicationName &
slink:VkApplicationInfo::pname:pEngineName are optional, and add missing
implicit valid usage statements for flink:vkDestroyInstance.
* Added missing valid usage for flink:vkCmdWriteTimestamp to require a
timestamp query pool.
* Simplify and/or split "`non-atomic`" valid usage statements.
New Extensions:
* `VK_AMD_gpu_shader_int16`
* `VK_EXT_blend_operation_advanced`
* `VK_EXT_sampler_filter_minmax`
* `VK_NV_framebuffer_mixed_samples`
-----------------------------------------------------
Note: the 1.0.52 spec wasn't published on github, so the 1.0.53 release
combines both change sets.
-----------------------------------------------------
Change log for June 13, 2017 Vulkan 1.0.52 spec update:
* Bump API patch number and header version number to 52 for this update.
Github Issues:
Internal Issues:
* Clarify behavior when non-coherent memory has
<<memory-device-unmap-does-not-flush, not been flushed before being
unmapped>> (internal issue 819).
* Fix description of code:WorkgroupSize builtin to note it decorates an
object, not a variable (internal issue 836).
* Fix asciidoc attributes so that trailing '{plus}' symbols in [eq] style
equations are rendered properly (internal issue 845).
* Add language to the "`Extension Handles, Objects, Enums, and Typedefs`"
section of the Procedures and Conventions document stating that any new
handle type requires a corresponding entry in the elink:VkObjectType
enumerated type (internal issue 856).
* Update style guide to use slink macro for Vulkan handle type names, and
define narrow conditions under which to use the *name and *text macros
instead of *link (internal issue 886).
* Add a dependency of the <<VK_KHX_device_group,VK_KHX_device_group>>
extension on VK_KHX_device_group_creation to +vk.xml+ and the extension
appendix.
* Change the copyright on Vulkan specification asciidoc *source* files to
CC-BY 4.0, and update the proprietary Khronos copyright applied to the
generated *output* formats (internal issue 327). This enables broader
re-use and modification of the Vulkan specification sources, while not
affecting the Reciprocal IP License between Vulkan Adopters and Working
Group Members.
New Extensions:
* `VK_NV_fill_rectangle`
* `VK_NV_fragment_coverage_to_color`

This extension provides an API to create a swapchain directly on a device's
|
|
display without any underlying window system.

|
=== Issues
|
|
|
|
1) Should swapchains sharing images each hold a reference to the images, or
|
|
should it be up to the application to destroy the swapchains and images in
|
|
an order that avoids the need for reference counting?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: Take a reference.
|
|
The lifetime of presentable images is already complex enough.
|
|
|
|
2) Should the srcRect/dstRect parameters be specified as part of the present
|
|
command, or at swapchain creation time?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: As part of the presentation command.
|
|
This allows moving and scaling the image on the screen without the need to
|
|
respecify the mode or create a new swapchain and presentable images.
|
|
|
|
3) Should srcRect/dstRect be specified as rects, or separate offset/extent
|
|
values?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: As rects.
|
|
Specifying them separately might make it easier for hardware to expose
|
|
support for one but not the other, but in such cases applications must just
|
|
take care to obey the reported capabilities and not use non-zero offsets or
|
|
extents that require scaling, as appropriate.
|
|
|
|
4) How can applications create multiple swapchains that use the same images?
|
|
|
|
*RESOLVED*: By calling flink:vkCreateSharedSwapchainsKHR.
|
|
|
|
An earlier resolution used flink:vkCreateSwapchainKHR, chaining multiple
|
|
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR structures through pname:pNext.
|
|
In order to allow each swapchain to also allow other extension structs, a
|
|
level of indirection was used: slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR::pname:pNext
|
|
pointed to a different structure, which had both an pname:sType/pname:pNext
|
|
for additional extensions, and also had a pointer to the next
|
|
slink:VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR structure.
|
|
The number of swapchains to be created could only be found by walking this
|
|
linked list of alternating structures, and the pSwapchains out parameter was
|
|
reinterpreted to be an array of slink:VkSwapchainKHR handles.
|
|
|
|
Another option considered was a method to specify a "`shared`" swapchain
|
|
when creating a new swapchain, such that groups of swapchains using the same
|
|
images could be built up one at a time.
|
|
This was deemed unusable because drivers need to know all of the displays an
|
|
image will be used on when determining which internal formats and layouts to
|
|
use for that image.

=== Examples
|
|
|
|
[NOTE]
|
|
.Note
|
|
====
|
|
The example code for the +VK_KHR_display+ and +VK_KHR_display_swapchain+
|
|
extensions was removed from the appendix after revision 1.0.43.
|
|
The display swapchain creation example code was ported to the cube demo that
|
|
is shipped with the official Khronos SDK, and is being kept up-to-date in
|
|
that location (see:
|
|
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-LoaderAndValidationLayers/blob/master/demos/cube.c).

|
|
- Restore single-field revision number.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 4, 2015-09-08 (James Jones)
|
|
- Allow creating multiple swap chains that share the same images using a
|
|
single call to vkCreateSwapChainKHR().
|
|
|
|
* Revision 5, 2015-09-10 (Alon Or-bach)
|
|
- Removed underscores from SWAP_CHAIN in two enums.
|
|

vkCreateSharedSwapchainsKHR, changing resolution of issue #4.
|
|
|
|
* Revision 10, 2017-03-13 (James Jones)
|
