VkImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR

The set of usages for the created image view can be restricted compared to the parent image’s usage flags by adding a VkImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR structure to the pNext chain of VkImageViewCreateInfo.

The VkImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkImageUsageFlags2KHR usage;
} VkImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR;

pub struct ImageViewUsage2CreateInfoKHR {
    s_type: vk::StructureType,
    p_next: *mut c_void,
    usage: vk::ImageUsageFlags2KHR,
}

• sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
• pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
• usage is a bitmask of VkImageUsageFlagBits2KHR specifying allowed usages of the image view.

When this structure is chained to VkImageViewCreateInfo the usage field overrides the implicit usage parameter inherited from image creation time and its value is used instead for the purposes of determining the valid usage conditions of VkImageViewCreateInfo.
