Vulkan 1.3.286 Released With One New Extension
Vulkan 1.3.286 was released today with a handful of corrections/clarifications as well as one new extension.
Besides all the routine fixes to the specification, Vulkan 1.3.286 does present one new addition: VK_EXT_shader_replicated_composites. The VK_EXT_shader_replicated_composites extension allows for creating composites from a single value in SPIR-V modules. Separately, NVIDIA today posted their 550.40.63 Linux Vulkan driver beta that adds EXT_legacy_vertex_attributes and GOOGLE_user_type support along with image load/store support for VK_FORMAT_D16_UNORM and VK_FORMAT_D32_SFLOAT formats.
