Get a local copy of the Vulkan-Profiles repository (https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Profiles/)

NOTE: If the Vulkan-Headers you need for generation is later than the one that exists in external/vulkan-headers, then external/vulkan-headers will need to be updated to match. These updates to external/vulkan need to be made in AOSP. Changes to ndk_translation may need to be first made in internal-main.

Run Vulkan-Profiles/scripts/gen_profiles_solutions.py in debug mode.

Debug mode (at time of writing) requires a dedicated debug folder within the output-library location. ~/Vulkan-Profiles$ mkdir debug ~/Vulkan-Profiles$ python3 scripts/gen_profiles_solution.py --debug --registry ~/<PATH_TO_YOUR_ANDROID_REPO>/external/vulkan-headers/registry/vk.xml --input ~/android/main/frameworks/native/vulkan/vkprofiles/profiles/ --output-library-inc . --output-library-src .

Take the generated vulkan_profiles.h and vulkan_profiles.cpp from the debug directory you just created.

~/Vulkan-Profiles$ cp debug/vulkan_profiles.cpp <PATH_TO_YOUR_ANDROID_REPO>/frameworks/native/vulkan/vkprofile/generated/ ~/Vulkan-Profiles$ cp debug/vulkan_profiles.h <PATH_TO_YOUR_ANDROID_REPO>/frameworks/native/vulkan/vkprofile/generated/

The files need to be modified to land.

1. Replace the generated license with the correct Android license (https://cs.android.com/android/platform/superproject/main/+/main:development/docs/copyright-templates/c.txt). Make sure to set the copyright to the current year. You should also remove the This file is ***GENERATED*** part.
2. Add VK_USE_PLATFORM_ANDROID_KHR between the license and the first includes for vulkan_profiles.cpp

 */

#ifndef VK_USE_PLATFORM_ANDROID_KHR
#define VK_USE_PLATFORM_ANDROID_KHR
#endif

#include ...

3. Rewrite the includes so that vulkan_profiles.h is correctly included
4. Modify the #define VP_DEBUG_MESSAGE_CALLBACK(MSG) ... from "Profiles ERROR/WARNING" to "vkprofiles ERROR/WARNING"
5. You may need to modify the Android.bp to remove warnings as errors, e.g. "-Wno-error=unused-parameter",
6. Add clang-format off to the beginning and clang-format on to the end of the files
