  can now be used with a `VkInstance` from another Vulkan layer, or with a `VK_NULL_HANDLE VkInstance`.
 - `MVKConfiguration` extended to cover all MoltenVK environment variables.
 - Report accurate value of 8 for `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::maxBoundDescriptorSets`.

- (or environment variable `MVK_CONFIG_AUTO_GPU_CAPTURE_SCOPE`) to `2`.
+- Advertise macOS M1 GPU as `VK_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_TYPE_INTEGRATED_GPU`.
+- For Vulkan semaphores, prefer using `MTLFence` over `MTLEvent`.
+- Support `immmutableSamplers` with sampler arrays.
+- Query pools write to dedicated temporary internal buffer to span multiple render passes 
+ and support larger query counts.
+- Fixes for race conditions in CTS multithread tests, guarding `MTLDevice` on cross-thread syncing.
+- Set Metal buffer alignment to 256 on non-Apple Silicon iOS/tvOS simulators.
+- `MVKMTLBufferAllocation`: Support device-local temp buffers for tessellation, 
+ indirect multiview, or occlusion queries buffer usage.
+- `MVKPixelFormats`: Enable `RenderTarget` usage for linear textures on Apple GPUs.
+- `MVKRenderPass`: Use a non-trivial granularity for TBDR GPUs.
+- Don't use barriers in render passes on Apple GPUs.
+- `MVKGraphicsPipeline`: Fix color write mask with `RGB9E5` RTs.
+- `MVKImagePlane`: When sync'ing, create the texture if it doesn't exist.
+- `MVKRenderPass`: Don't use `Load/Store` actions for memoryless.
+- `MVKRenderPass`: Only use `MTLStorageModeMemoryless` where available.
+- `MVKDeviceMemory`: Don't consider Memoryless host-accessible on *macOS/tvOS*.
+- `MVKCmdResolveImage` fix incorrectly changing first resolve layer's src/dst base layer.
+- `MVKPhysicalDevice`: Require Mac family 2 for render without attachments.
+- `MVKPhysicalDevice`: Disable SIMD-group permutation for Mac family 1.
+- `MVKPhysicalDevice`: Clamp maximum buffer range to 4 GiB - 1.
+- `MVKMTLBufferAllocation`: Mark temp buffers as volatile.
+- `SPIRVReflection`: Multiple entry point support for `getShaderOutputs()`.
+- Remove obsolete `MVKVector`, which was long ago replaced with `MVKSmallVector`.
