This release features a new loader extension for some specific automation use
cases, several new vendor extensions, and code quality improvements, among other
changes.

• SDK
  • Fix: Revise how OpenGL compatibility is detected in the build system on
    Windows.
    (internal MR 3883)
  • Fix: Add missing include directive in loader code.
    (OpenXR-SDK-Source PR 554)
  • Improvement: Add support for sanitizers in CMake with sanitizers-cmake project.
    (internal MR 3716)
  • Improvement: add .clang-tidy file.
    (internal MR 3802)
  • Improvement: Enable the clang-tidy cert-dcl16-c, bugprone-too-small-loop-
    variable, and bugprone-switch-missing-default-case checks, making fixes
    required to satisfy them.
    (internal MR 3882,
    internal MR 3893)
  • Improvement: Disable the clang-tidy bugprone-reserved-identifier, cert-dcl37-c,
    and cert-dcl51-cpp checks.
    (internal MR 3882,
    internal MR 3893)
  • Loader: Implement XR_EXT_loader_init_properties extension and enable
    XR_KHR_loader_init on all platforms.
    (internal MR 2454)
  • Loader: Refactor loader data class and handling, preparing for loader data
    properties.
    (internal MR 3834,
    internal MR 3839)
  • Loader: Ensure that only the first Android property is used.
    (internal MR 3834,
    internal MR 3839)
  • Scripts: Handle the case where "current_ref_page" is a string rather than an
    object.
    (internal MR 3834,
    internal MR 3839)
  • Validation Layer: Accept unknown or duplicated structure types in the next
    chain, and dump debug messages for them.
    (internal MR 3828)
  • hello_xr: Optimize graphics synchronization when using Vulkan.
    (internal MR 3681)
• Registry
  • Change: Update the XrSpatialAnchorCreateCompletionBD structure, and increment
    the revision of XR_BD_spatial_anchor.
    (internal MR 3876)
  • Fix: Remove XR_EXT_palm_pose paths from XR_HTCX_vive_tracker_interaction,
    as the /user/hand/left|right paths are not valid paths for Vive Trackers.
    (internal MR 3844)
  • Fix: Include XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING in list of errors
    xrEnumerateInteractionRenderModelIdsEXT can return. (Already in specification
    prose.)
    (internal MR 3889)
  • Fix: Typo in comment for XR_ERROR_SPATIAL_PERSISTENCE_SCOPE_INCOMPATIBLE_EXT.
    (internal MR 3897)
  • Fix: Add explicit dependency to XR_ML_compat for
    XrCoordinateSpaceCreateInfoML.
    (internal MR 3907)
  • Improvement: Add comments for the XrResult values added by
    XR_BD_spatial_anchor and XR_BD_spatial_anchor_sharing.
    (internal MR 3861,
    internal issue 2535)

    (internal MR 2454)
