* Bump API patch number and header version number to 39 for this update. Github Issues: * Clarified that only accesses via the specified buffer/image subresource ranges are included in the access scopes (public issue 306). * Add missing valid usage statements for flink:vkCreateComputePipelines and flink:vkCreateGraphicsPipelines (public issue 427). Internal Issues: * Add a Note to the <<invariance,Invariance>> appendix about a difference between OpenGL and Vulkan with regards to how primitives derived from offsets are handled (internal issue 355). * Add the +<<VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2>>+, +<<VK_KHR_maintenance1>>+, and +<<VK_KHR_shader_draw_parameters>>+ extensions (internal issue 448). * Add the +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_vote>>+ and +<<VK_EXT_shader_subgroup_ballot>>+ extensions (internal issue 449). * Update the texture level-of-detail equation in the <<textures-scale-factor,Scale Factor Operation>> section to better approximate the ellipse major and minor axes (internal issue 547). * Forbid non-explicitly allowed uses of interface decorations in the introduction to the <<interfaces,Shader Interfaces>> chapter (internal issue 607). * Replace use of MathJax with KaTeX, for improved load-time performance as well as avoiding the scrolling-and-scrolling behavior due to MathJax asynchronous rendering when loading at an anchor inside the spec. This change also requires moving to HTML5 output for the spec instead of XHTML, and there is a visible difference in that the chapter navigation index is now in a scrollable sidebar instead of at the top of the document. We may or may not retain the nav sidebar based on feedback (internal issue 613). * Improve consistency of markup and formatting in extension appendices (internal issue 631). Other Issues: * Add explicit valid usage statements to slink:VkImageCopy requiring that the source and destination layer ranges be contained in their respective source and destination images. * Add valid usage language for swapchain of flink:vkAcquireNextImage. If the swapchain has been replaced, then it should not be passed to flink:vkAcquireNextImage. * Add a valid usage statement to flink:vkCreateImageView, that the image must have been created with an appropriate usage bit set. * Noted that slink:VkDisplayPresentInfoKHR is a valid extension of slink:VkPresentInfoKHR in the <<wsi_swapchain,WSI Swapchain>> section. * Update valid usage for flink:vkCmdSetViewport and flink:vkCmdSetScissor to account for the multiple viewport feature. If the feature is not enabled, the parameters for these functions have required values that are defined in the <<features-features-multiViewport,multiple viewports>> section of the spec but were not reflected in the valid usage text for these functions. * Add the +<<VK_EXT_swapchain_colorspace>>+ extension defining common color spaces.

This extension adds support for the following SPIR-V extension in Vulkan:
|
|
|
|
* SPV_KHR_shader_ballot
|
|
|
|
This extension provides the ability for a group of invocations, which
|
|
execute in parallel, to do limited forms of cross-invocation communication
|
|
via a group broadcast of a invocation value, or broadcast of a bitarray
|
|
representing a predicate value from each invocation in the group.
|
|
|
|
This extension provides access to a number of additional built-in shader
|
|
variables in Vulkan:
|
|
|
|
* code:SubgroupEqMaskKHR, which contains the subgroup mask of the current
|
|
subgroup invocation,
|
|
* code:SubgroupGeMaskKHR, which contains the subgroup mask of the
|
|
invocations greater than or equal to the current invocation,
|
|
* code:SubgroupGtMaskKHR, which contains the subgroup mask of the
|
|
invocations greater than the current invocation,
|
|
* code:SubgroupLeMaskKHR, which contains the subgroup mask of the
|
|
invocations less than or equal to the current invocation,
|
|
* code:SubgroupLtMaskKHR, which contains the subgroup mask of the
|
|
invocations less than the current invocation,
|
|
* code:SubgroupLocalInvocationId, which contains the index of an
|
|
invocation within a subgroup, and
|
|
* code:SubgroupSize, which contains the maximum number of invocations in a
|
|
subgroup.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, this extension provides access to the new SPIR-V instructions:
|
|
|
|
* code:OpSubgroupBallotKHR,
|
|
* code:OpSubgroupFirstInvocationKHR, and
|
|
* code:OpSubgroupReadInvocationKHR,
|
|
|
|
When using GLSL source-based shader languages, the following variables and
|
|
shader functions from GL_ARB_shader_ballot can map to these SPIR-V built-in
|
|
decorations and instructions:
|
|
|
|
* in uint64_t gl_SubGroupEqMaskARB; -> code:SubgroupEqMaskKHR,
|
|
* in uint64_t gl_SubGroupGeMaskARB; -> code:SubgroupGeMaskKHR,
|
|
* in uint64_t gl_SubGroupGtMaskARB; -> code:SubgroupGtMaskKHR,
|
|
* in uint64_t gl_SubGroupLeMaskARB; -> code:SubgroupLeMaskKHR,
|
|
* in uint64_t gl_SubGroupLtMaskARB; -> code:SubgroupLtMaskKHR,
|
|
* in uint gl_SubGroupInvocationARB; -> code:SubgroupLocalInvocationId,
|
|
* uniform uint gl_SubGroupSizeARB; -> code:SubgroupSize,
|
|
* ballotARB() -> code:OpSubgroupBallotKHR,
|
|
* readFirstInvocationARB() -> code:OpSubgroupFirstInvocationKHR, and
|
|
* readInvocationARB() -> code:OpSubgroupReadInvocationKHR.
