Source-level debugging is a powerful tool that can aid shader development. This capability is now available to Vulkan shaders using RenderDoc, the DirectX Shader Compiler (DXC), and the glslandValidator shader compiler. This document describes how to generate the necessary SPIR-V instructions that enable source-level debugging. Click here to view the white paper.

LunarG presented Correct Vulkan Synchronization with Extended Synchronization Validation as part of the Khronos Vulkanise webinar series on October 13, 2022, at 11:00 am CDT (GMT-5). Synchronization validation functionality has been enhanced to now support multiple queues and command buffers.  This tutorial will show how to use it and how to understand the validation errors you are receiving and how to fix the error in your application. A live demonstration will be provided. Click here to view the presentation.
