VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo(3)

Name

VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo - Extended buffer usage flags

C Specification

The VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_4
typedef struct VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo {
    VkStructureType        sType;
    const void*            pNext;
    VkBufferUsageFlags2    usage;
} VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_KHR_maintenance5
typedef VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfoKHR;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • usage is a bitmask of VkBufferUsageFlagBits2 specifying allowed usages of the buffer.

Description

If this structure is included in the pNext chain of a buffer creation structure, usage is used instead of the corresponding usage value passed in that creation structure, allowing additional usage flags to be specified. If this structure is included in the pNext chain of a buffer query structure, the usage flags of the buffer are returned in usage of this structure, and the usage flags representable in usage of the buffer query structure are also returned in that field.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_BUFFER_USAGE_FLAGS_2_CREATE_INFO

  • VUID-VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo-usage-parameter
    usage must be a valid combination of VkBufferUsageFlagBits2 values

  • VUID-VkBufferUsageFlags2CreateInfo-usage-requiredbitmask
    usage must not be 0
