=== Short Description
Enables tighter array and struct packing to be used with uniform buffers.
=== Description
This extension modifies the alignment rules for uniform buffers, allowing
for tighter packing of arrays and structures.
This allows, for example, the std430 layout, as defined in
https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenGL/specs/gl/GLSLangSpec.4.60.pdf[GLSL]
to be supported in uniform buffers.
=== New Enum Constants
* Extending elink:VkStructureType:
** ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_UNIFORM_BUFFER_STANDARD_LAYOUT_FEATURES_KHR
=== New Structures
* slink:VkPhysicalDeviceUniformBufferStandardLayoutFeaturesKHR
=== Issues
None.
=== Version History
* Revision 1, 2019-01-25 (Graeme Leese)
