Appendix D: Core Revisions (Informative)

    New minor versions of the Vulkan API are defined periodically by the Khronos Vulkan Working Group. These consist of some amount of additional functionality added to the core API, potentially including both new functionality and functionality promoted from extensions.

    It is possible to build the specification for earlier versions, but to aid readability of the latest versions, this appendix gives an overview of the changes as compared to earlier versions.

    Version 1.2

    Vulkan Version 1.2 promoted a number of key extensions into the core API:

    All differences in behavior between these extensions and the corresponding Vulkan 1.2 functionality are summarized below.

    Differences relative to VK_KHR_8bit_storage

    If the VK_KHR_8bit_storage extension is not supported, support for the SPIR-V StorageBuffer8BitAccess capability in shader modules is optional. Support for this feature is defined by VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Features::storageBuffer8BitAccess when queried via vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2.

    Differences relative to VK_KHR_draw_indirect_count

    If the VK_KHR_draw_indirect_count extension is not supported, support for the entry points vkCmdDrawIndirectCount and vkCmdDrawIndexedIndirectCount is optional.

    Differences relative to VK_EXT_shader_viewport_index_layer

    If the VK_EXT_shader_viewport_index_layer extension is not supported, support for the ShaderViewportIndexLayerEXT SPIR-V capability is optional.
