VkImageTiling(3)

Name

VkImageTiling - Specifies the tiling arrangement of data in an image

C Specification

Possible values of VkImageCreateInfo::tiling, specifying the tiling arrangement of texel blocks in an image, are:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
typedef enum VkImageTiling {
    VK_IMAGE_TILING_OPTIMAL = 0,
    VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR = 1,
  // Provided by VK_EXT_image_drm_format_modifier
    VK_IMAGE_TILING_DRM_FORMAT_MODIFIER_EXT = 1000158000,
} VkImageTiling;

Description

VK_IMAGE_TILING_OPTIMAL specifies optimal tiling (texels are laid out in an implementation-dependent arrangement, for more efficient memory access).
VK_IMAGE_TILING_LINEAR specifies linear tiling (texels are laid out in memory in row-major order, possibly with some padding on each row).
VK_IMAGE_TILING_DRM_FORMAT_MODIFIER_EXT specifies that the image’s tiling is defined by a Linux DRM format modifier. The modifier is specified at image creation with VkImageDrmFormatModifierListCreateInfoEXT or VkImageDrmFormatModifierExplicitCreateInfoEXT, and can be queried with vkGetImageDrmFormatModifierPropertiesEXT.
