* Bump API patch number and header version number to 29 for this update. Github Issues: * Remove redundant constraint on slink:VkCommandBufferInheritanceInfo::pname:queryFlags (public issue 224). * Fix typo and remove link in Note in the <<extended-functionality-instance-extensions-and-devices, Instance Extensions and Device Extensions>> section (public issue 359). * Fix erroneous validation statement for the pname:layout member of slink:VkComputePipelineCreateInfo (public issue 362). Internal Issues: * Restore long figure captions using asciidoc sidebar blocks, due to restrictions of asciidoc syntax (internal issue 101). * Replace most latexmath equations with comparable markup in straight asciidoc, which significantly improves time required to fully load and process the HTML forms of the Specification. There are known minor font and alignment inconsistencies with MathJax and PDF rendering of latexmath equations. Please do not file github issues about these. We are aware of the inconsistencies and will make refinements over time, while the performance improvements are compelling in at least some major browsers (internal issue 313). * Move handcoded validity statements from +vk.xml+ into the Specification body, easing work in the single-branch model. Specify the distinction between these explicit statements, and the implicit validity statements inferred from vk.xml. Validity statements now appear in two blocks for each command and structure - handcoded "Valid Usage" and the implicit "Valid Usage (Implicit)" (internal issue 392). * Add the +returnedonly="false"+ attribute to WSI output structures, removing incorrectly generated implicit validity statements for slink:VkDisplayPropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlanePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayModePropertiesKHR, slink:VkDisplayPlaneCapabilitiesKHR, slink:VkSurfaceCapabilitiesKHR, and slink:VkSurfaceFormatKHR structures (internal issue 486). * Update slink:VkImageLayout to require the ename:VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT be set for sampled depth/stencil images (internal issue 487). * Use an explicit format specifier string for the date command invocation in the +Makefile+ instead of the shorthand -R option, which doesn't work on BSD and MaxOS X date commands (internal issue 500). Other Issues: * Use the terms ``allocation scope'' and ``extension scope'' instead of just ``scope'', and add them to the glossary.

= Dispatching Commands
|
|
|
|
_Dispatching commands_ (commands with ftext:Dispatch in the name) provoke
|
|
work in a compute pipeline.
|
|
Dispatching commands are recorded into a command buffer and when executed by
|
|
a queue, will produce work which executes according to the currently bound
|
|
compute pipeline.
|
|
A compute pipeline must: be bound to a command buffer before any dispatch
|
|
commands are recorded in that command buffer.
|
|
|
|
// refBegin vkCmdDispatch Dispatch compute work items
|
|
|
|
To record a dispatch, call:
|
|
|
|
include::../api/protos/vkCmdDispatch.txt[]
|
|
|
|
* pname:commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command will be
|
|
recorded.
|
|
* pname:x is the number of local workgroups to dispatch in the X
|
|
dimension.
|
|
* pname:y is the number of local workgroups to dispatch in the Y
|
|
dimension.
|
|
* pname:z is the number of local workgroups to dispatch in the Z
|
|
dimension.
|
|
|
|
When the command is executed, a global workgroup consisting of [eq]#x
|
|
{times} y {times} z# local workgroups is assembled.
