General Checklist:

Please ensure the following points are checked:

• My code follows the coding style
• [ X I have reviewed file licenses
• I have commented any added functions (in line with Doxygen)
• I have commented any code that could be hard to understand
• My changes do not add any new compiler warnings
• My changes do not add any new validation layer errors or warnings
• I have used existing framework/helper functions where possible
• My changes do not add any regressions
• I have tested every sample to ensure everything runs correctly
• This PR describes the scope and expected impact of the changes I am making

Note: The Samples CI runs a number of checks including:

• I have updated the header Copyright to reflect the current year (CI build will fail if Copyright is out of date)
• My changes build on Windows, Linux, macOS and Android. Otherwise I have documented any exceptions

If this PR contains framework changes:

• [ X I did a full batch run using the batch command line argument to make sure all samples still work properly

Sample Checklist

If your PR contains a new or modified sample, these further checks must be carried out in addition to the General Checklist:

• I have tested the sample on at least one compliant Vulkan implementation
• If the sample is vendor-specific, I have tagged it appropriately
• I have stated on what implementation the sample has been tested so that others can test on different implementations and platforms
• Any dependent assets have been merged and published in downstream modules
• For new samples, I have added a paragraph with a summary to the appropriate chapter in the readme of the folder that the sample belongs to e.g. api samples readme
• For new samples, I have added a tutorial README.md file to guide users through what they need to know to implement code using this feature. For example, see conditional_rendering
• For new samples, I have added a link to the Antora navigation so that the sample will be listed at the Vulkan documentation site

This seems to run just fine for me, but I do get one validation error:

[error] 555635515 - VUID-VkDeviceCreateInfo-pNext-02830: vkCreateDevice(): pCreateInfo->pNext chain includes a VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Features structure, then it must not include a VkPhysicalDeviceHostQueryResetFeatures structure. The features in VkPhysicalDeviceHostQueryResetFeatures were promoted in Vulkan 1.2 and is also found in VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Features. To prevent one feature setting something to VK_TRUE and the other to VK_FALSE, only one struct containing the feature is allowed.
pNext chain: VkDeviceCreateInfo::pNext -> [VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_LOADER_DEVICE_CREATE_INFO] -> [VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_LOADER_DEVICE_CREATE_INFO] -> [VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features] -> [VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceAddressCommandsFeaturesKHR] -> [VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Features] -> [VkPhysicalDeviceHostQueryResetFeatures] -> [VkPhysicalDevicePerformanceQueryFeaturesKHR].
The Vulkan spec states: If the pNext chain includes a VkPhysicalDeviceVulkan12Features structure, then it must not include a VkPhysicalDevice8BitStorageFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderAtomicInt64Features, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderFloat16Int8Features, VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceScalarBlockLayoutFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceImagelessFramebufferFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceUniformBufferStandardLayoutFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceShaderSubgroupExtendedTypesFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceSeparateDepthStencilLayoutsFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceHostQueryResetFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceTimelineSemaphoreFeatures, VkPhysicalDeviceBufferDeviceAddressFeatures, or VkPhysicalDeviceVulkanMemoryModelFeatures structure (https://docs.vulkan.org/spec/latest/chapters/devsandqueues.html#VUID-VkDeviceCreateInfo-pNext-02830)

Pull request overview

This PR adds a new Vulkan-Samples extension sample showcasing VK_KHR_device_address_commands, demonstrating a GPU-driven rendering path that records bind/fill/update/draw operations using device addresses (instead of VkBuffer handles), along with accompanying documentation and build/docs integration.

Changes:

• Added a new device_address_commands extension sample implementation (C++), including runtime loading of VK_KHR_device_address_commands entry points and address-range barriers.
• Added GLSL + Slang shader implementations for compute-driven animation/culling and indirect drawing.
• Integrated the sample into the extensions README, Antora navigation, and the sample build order list.

Sample is working for me on WIn11 and an nv RTX 4070.

I noticed a few naming/styling related thing in code that should be improved. But nothing functional.
