vkGetMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT(3)

Name

vkGetMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT - Get Properties of External Memory Metal Handles

C Specification

Metal memory handles compatible with Vulkan may also be created by non-Vulkan APIs using methods beyond the scope of this specification. To determine the correct parameters to use when importing such handles, call:

// Provided by VK_EXT_external_memory_metal
VkResult vkGetMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT(
    VkDevice                                    device,
    VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBits          handleType,
    const void*                                 pHandle,
    VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT*           pMemoryMetalHandleProperties);

Parameters

  • device is the logical device that will be importing pHandle.

  • handleType is a VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBits value specifying the type of the handle pHandle.

  • pHandle is the handle which will be imported.

  • pMemoryMetalHandleProperties is a pointer to a VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT structure in which properties of pHandle are returned.
