Jon Leech 911a764694 Change log for October 7, 2018 Vulkan 1.1.87 spec update:
* Update release number to 87.

Public Issues:

  * Merge flink:vkCmdPipelineBarrier self-dependency barrier VUs referring
    to the same subpass dependency (public pull request 756).
  * Describe default value of `"optional"` attribute in the registry schema
    document (public issue 769)
  * Fix links in <<VK_NVX_raytracing>> extension (public pull request 805).
  * Mark the <<VK_KHR_mir_surface>> extension obsolete (see public issue 814
    - does not close this, however).
  * Fix missing endif in Image Creation block (public issue 817).

Internal Issues:

  * Clarify that the compressed texture formats corresponding to
    <<features-features-textureCompressionETC2>>,
    <<features-features-textureCompressionASTC_LDR>>, and
    <<features-features-textureCompressionBC>> is not contingent on the
    feature bits, and may be supported even if the features are not enabled
    (internal issue 663).
  * Clarify that code:FragStencilRefEXT is output only in the
    <<interfaces-builtin-variables, Built-In Variables>> section (internal
    issue 1173).
  * Identify and correct many overly-aggressive uses of "`undefined`", and
    narrow them down, where straightforward to do so. Mark such resolved
    uses of "`undefined`" with the custom undefined: macro. Add a new
    <<writing-undefined, Describing Undefined Behavior>> section (internal
    issue 1267).
  * Don't require code:inline_uniform_block descriptors to be populated
    before use in the flink:vkAllocateDescriptorSets section (internal issue
    1380).
  * Allow suppressing inline SVG images by controlling this with an
    attribute set in the Makefile, rather than the explicit [%inline]
    directive (internal issue 1391).
  * Mark 'Khronos' as a registered trademark in several places, now that it
    is one.
  * Fix typo in the <<VK_KHR_shader_atomic_int64>> appendix using the GLSL
    naming of the compare exchange op when referring to the SPIR-V op.
  * Specify in the flink:vkGetPhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyProperties section
    that all implementations must support at least one queue family, and
    that every queue family must contain at least one queue.
  * Make slink:VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pname:dynamicStateCount,
    slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsPerPixel, and
    slink:VkSampleLocationsInfoEXT::pname:sampleLocationsCount optional, to
    fix bogus implicit valid usage checks that were causing failures in the
    conformance tests.
  * Fix vendor tag in reserved extension 237 constants. Does not affect
    anything since it's just a placeholder, but this should avoid further
    comments.
  * Minor markup fixes in some extension appendices.

New Extensions:

  * `<<VK_FUCHSIA_imagepipe_surface>>`

[open,refpage='vkCreateViSurfaceNN',desc='Create a slink:VkSurfaceKHR object for a VI layer',type='protos']
--
To create a sname:VkSurfaceKHR object for an code:nn::code:vi::code:Layer,
query the layer's native handle using
code:nn::code:vi::code:GetNativeWindow, and then call:
include::../../api/protos/vkCreateViSurfaceNN.txt[]
* pname:instance is the instance with which to associate the surface.
* pname:pCreateInfo is a pointer to an instance of the
sname:VkViSurfaceCreateInfoNN structure containing parameters affecting
the creation of the surface object.
* pname:pAllocator is the allocator used for host memory allocated for the
surface object when there is no more specific allocator available (see
<<memory-allocation,Memory Allocation>>).
* pname:pSurface points to a slink:VkSurfaceKHR handle in which the
created surface object is returned.
During the lifetime of a surface created using a particular
code:nn::code:vi::code:NativeWindowHandle any attempts to create another
surface for the same code:nn::code:vi::code:Layer and any attempts to
connect to the same code:nn::code:vi::code:Layer through other platform
mechanisms will have undefined: results.
The pname:currentExtent of a VI surface is always undefined:.
Applications are expected to choose an appropriate size for the swapchain's
pname:imageExtent (e.g., by matching the result of a call to
code:nn::code:vi::code:GetDisplayResolution).

--
The sname:VkViSurfaceCreateInfoNN structure is defined as:
include::../../api/structs/VkViSurfaceCreateInfoNN.txt[]
* pname:sType is the type of this structure.
* pname:pNext is `NULL` or a pointer to an extension-specific structure.
* pname:flags is reserved for future use.
* pname:window is the code:nn::code:vi::code:NativeWindowHandle for the
code:nn::code:vi::code:Layer with which to associate the surface.
