vkGetPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferProperties(3)

Name

vkGetPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferProperties - Query external handle types supported by buffers

C Specification

To query the external handle types supported by buffers, call:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
void vkGetPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferProperties(
    VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
    const VkPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferInfo*   pExternalBufferInfo,
    VkExternalBufferProperties*                 pExternalBufferProperties);

or the equivalent command

// Provided by VK_KHR_external_memory_capabilities
void vkGetPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferPropertiesKHR(
    VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
    const VkPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferInfo*   pExternalBufferInfo,
    VkExternalBufferProperties*                 pExternalBufferProperties);

Parameters

physicalDevice is the physical device from which to query the buffer capabilities.
pExternalBufferInfo is a pointer to a VkPhysicalDeviceExternalBufferInfo structure describing the parameters that would be consumed by vkCreateBuffer.
pExternalBufferProperties is a pointer to a VkExternalBufferProperties structure in which capabilities are returned.
