    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_ADOBERGB_NONLINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_BT2020_LINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_BT709_LINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_BT709_NONLINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_DCI_P3_LINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_DCI_P3_NONLINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_DISPLAY_P3_LINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_DISPLAY_P3_NONLINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_DOLBYVISION_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_LINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_EXTENDED_SRGB_NONLINEAR_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_HDR10_HLG_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_HDR10_ST2084_EXT

    • VK_COLOR_SPACE_PASS_THROUGH_EXT

Issues

1) Does the spec need to specify which kinds of image formats support the color spaces?

RESOLVED: Pixel format is independent of color space (though some color spaces really want / need floating point color components to be useful). Therefore, do not plan on documenting what formats support which colorspaces. An application can call vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfaceFormatsKHR to query what a particular implementation supports.

2) How does application determine if HW supports appropriate transfer function for a colorspace?

RESOLVED: Extension indicates that implementation must not do the OETF encoding if it is not sRGB. That responsibility falls to the application shaders. Any other native OETF / EOTF functions supported by an implementation can be described by separate extension.
