pNextisNULLor a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
Description
-
maxUpdateAfterBindDescriptorsInAllPoolsis the maximum number of descriptors (summed over all descriptor types) that can be created across all pools that are created with theVK_DESCRIPTOR_POOL_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_BITbit set. Pool creation may fail when this limit is exceeded, or when the space this limit represents is unable to satisfy a pool creation due to fragmentation. -
shaderUniformBufferArrayNonUniformIndexingNativeis a boolean value indicating whether uniform buffer descriptors natively support non-uniform indexing. If this isVK_FALSE, then a single dynamic instance of an instruction that non-uniformly indexes an array of uniform buffers may execute multiple times in order to access all the descriptors. -
shaderSampledImageArrayNonUniformIndexingNativeis a boolean value indicating whether sampler and image descriptors natively support non-uniform indexing. If this isVK_FALSE, then a single dynamic instance of an instruction that non-uniformly indexes an array of samplers or images may execute multiple times in order to access all the descriptors. -
shaderStorageBufferArrayNonUniformIndexingNativeis a boolean value indicating whether storage buffer descriptors natively support non-uniform indexing. If this isVK_FALSE, then a single dynamic instance of an instruction that non-uniformly indexes an array of storage buffers may execute multiple times in order to access all the descriptors. -
shaderStorageImageArrayNonUniformIndexingNativeis a boolean value indicating whether storage image descriptors natively support non-uniform indexing. If this isVK_FALSE, then a single dynamic instance of an instruction that non-uniformly indexes an array of storage images may execute multiple times in order to access all the descriptors. -
shaderInputAttachmentArrayNonUniformIndexingNativeis a boolean value indicating whether input attachment descriptors natively support non-uniform indexing. If this isVK_FALSE, then a single dynamic instance of an instruction that non-uniformly indexes an array of input attachments may execute multiple times in order to access all the descriptors. -
robustBufferAccessUpdateAfterBindis a boolean value indicating whetherrobustBufferAccesscan be enabled on a device simultaneously withdescriptorBindingUniformBufferUpdateAfterBind,descriptorBindingStorageBufferUpdateAfterBind,descriptorBindingUniformTexelBufferUpdateAfterBind, and/ordescriptorBindingStorageTexelBufferUpdateAfterBind. If this isVK_FALSE, then eitherrobustBufferAccessmust be disabled or all of these update-after-bind features must be disabled. Similarly, if this property isVK_FALSE, robustness must not be enabled through the VkPipelineRobustnessCreateInfo mechanism. -
quadDivergentImplicitLodis a boolean value indicating whether implicit LOD calculations for image operations have well-defined results when the image and/or sampler objects used for the instruction are not uniform within a quad. See Derivative Image Operations. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindSamplersis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorSamplersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindUniformBuffersis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorUniformBuffersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindStorageBuffersis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorStorageBuffersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindSampledImagesis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorSampledImagesbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindStorageImagesis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorStorageImagesbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageDescriptorUpdateAfterBindInputAttachmentsis similar tomaxPerStageDescriptorInputAttachmentsbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxPerStageUpdateAfterBindResourcesis similar tomaxPerStageResourcesbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindSamplersis similar tomaxDescriptorSetSamplersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindUniformBuffersis similar tomaxDescriptorSetUniformBuffersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindUniformBuffersDynamicis similar tomaxDescriptorSetUniformBuffersDynamicbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. While an application can allocate dynamic uniform buffer descriptors from a pool created with theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BIT, bindings for these descriptors must not be present in any descriptor set layout that includes bindings created withVK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_BIT. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindStorageBuffersis similar tomaxDescriptorSetStorageBuffersbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindStorageBuffersDynamicis similar tomaxDescriptorSetStorageBuffersDynamicbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. While an application can allocate dynamic storage buffer descriptors from a pool created with theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BIT, bindings for these descriptors must not be present in any descriptor set layout that includes bindings created withVK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_BIT. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindSampledImagesis similar tomaxDescriptorSetSampledImagesbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindStorageImagesis similar tomaxDescriptorSetStorageImagesbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set. -
maxDescriptorSetUpdateAfterBindInputAttachmentsis similar tomaxDescriptorSetInputAttachmentsbut counts descriptors from descriptor sets created with or without theVK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_POOL_BITbit set.
If the VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorIndexingProperties structure is included in the pNext chain of the
VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to
vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each
corresponding implementation-dependent property.
