+/**
+ * For color buffers that have an auxiliary buffer enabled, there is an
+ * additional buffer that keeps track of fast clear values. Using this
+ * buffer allows us to access image subresources while being aware of their
+ * fast clear values in non-trivial cases.
+ *
+ * The clear values in this buffer are updated when a fast clear is performed
+ * on a subresource. Two synchronization operations can be performed in order
+ * for the next memory access to use the fast-clear value:
+ *   a. Copy the value from the buffer to the surface state object used for
+ *      reading (if different).
+ *   b. Do (a) onto a surface state object and use it to resolve the
+ *      subresource.
+ *
+ * The synchronization approach currently taken is as follows. We place
+ * resolves in the hands of the user via layout transitions. We also sometimes
+ * skip resolves when a clear value predetermined to be the default in other
+ * surface state objects is used in a fast clear.
+ *
+ * We fast-clear (and so cause things to get temporarily unsynchronized)
+ * whenever the hardware allows except for two cases: when in the GENERAL
+ * layout and when clearing a proper subset of a layered image. The exception
+ * is made for the former because a layout transition isn't required before
+ * sampling from an image in that layout. The exception is made for the latter
+ * because a layout transition isn't required between a render pass that
+ * renders to a proper subset of a layered image and another render pass that
+ * renders to every layer in the layered image.
