VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures(3)

Name

VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures - Structure describing whether pipeline cache control can be supported by an implementation

C Specification

The VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    void*              pNext;
    VkBool32           pipelineCreationCacheControl;
} VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_EXT_pipeline_creation_cache_control
typedef VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeaturesEXT;

Members

This structure describes the following feature:

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

Description

  • pipelineCreationCacheControl indicates that the implementation supports:

    • The following can be used in Vk*PipelineCreateInfo::flags:

      • VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_FAIL_ON_PIPELINE_COMPILE_REQUIRED_BIT

      • VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_EARLY_RETURN_ON_FAILURE_BIT

    • The following can be used in VkPipelineCacheCreateInfo::flags:

      • VK_PIPELINE_CACHE_CREATE_EXTERNALLY_SYNCHRONIZED_BIT

If the VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PIPELINE_CREATION_CACHE_CONTROL_FEATURES
