VkIndirectCommandsLayoutUsageFlagBitsNV

Bits which can be set in VkIndirectCommandsLayoutCreateInfoNV::flags, specifying usage hints of an indirect command layout, are:

typedef enum VkIndirectCommandsLayoutUsageFlagBitsNV {
    VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_EXPLICIT_PREPROCESS_BIT_NV = 0x00000001,
    VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_INDEXED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NV = 0x00000002,
    VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_UNORDERED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NV = 0x00000004,
} VkIndirectCommandsLayoutUsageFlagBitsNV;

• VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_EXPLICIT_PREPROCESS_BIT_NV specifies that the layout is always used with the manual preprocessing step through calling vkCmdPreprocessGeneratedCommandsNV and executed by vkCmdExecuteGeneratedCommandsNV with isPreprocessed set to VK_TRUE.
• VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_INDEXED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NV specifies that the input data for the sequences is not implicitly indexed from 0..sequencesUsed, but an application-provided VkBuffer encoding the index is provided.
• VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_UNORDERED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NV specifies that the processing of sequences can happen at an implementation-dependent order, which is not guaranteed to be coherent using the same input data. This flag is ignored when the pipelineBindPoint is VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_COMPUTE as it is implied that the dispatch sequence is always unordered.
