* 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_16bit_storage` extension allows use of 16-bit types in shader
|
|
input and output interfaces, and push constant blocks.
|
|
This extension introduces several new optional features which map to SPIR-V
|
|
capabilities and allow access to 16-bit data in code:Block-decorated objects
|
|
in the code:Uniform and the code:StorageBuffer storage classes, and objects
|
|
in the code:PushConstant storage class.
|
|
This extension allows 16-bit variables to be declared and used as
|
|
user-defined shader inputs and outputs but does not change location
|
|
assignment and component assignment rules.
|
|
|
|
=== New Enum Constants
|
|
|
|
* Extending elink:VkStructureType:
|
|
** ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_16BIT_STORAGE_FEATURES_KHR
|
|
|
|
=== New Structures
|
|
|
|
* slink:VkPhysicalDevice16BitStorageFeaturesKHR
|
|
|
|
=== New SPIR-V Capabilities
|
|
|
|
* <<spirvenv-capabilities-table-16bitstorage,code:StorageBuffer16BitAccess>>
|
|
* <<spirvenv-capabilities-table-16bitstorage,code:UniformAndStorageBuffer16BitAccess>>
|
|
* <<spirvenv-capabilities-table-16bitstorage,code:StoragePushConstant16>>
|
|
* <<spirvenv-capabilities-table-16bitstorage,code:StorageInputOutput16>>
|
|
|
|
=== Promotion to Vulkan 1.1
|
|
|
|
All functionality in this extension is included in core Vulkan 1.1, with the
|
|
KHR suffix omitted.
|
|
The original type, enum and command names are still available as aliases of
|
|
the core functionality.
