VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV

Structure describing the device-generated compute features that can be supported by an implementation

The VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 deviceGeneratedCompute;
    VkBool32 deviceGeneratedComputePipelines;
    VkBool32 deviceGeneratedComputeCaptureReplay;
} VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV;

This structure describes the following features:

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
  • deviceGeneratedCompute indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to generate dispatch commands and push constants for the compute pipeline on the device. See Device-Generated Commands.
  • deviceGeneratedComputePipelines indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to generate commands to bind compute pipelines on the device. See Device-Generated Commands.
  • deviceGeneratedComputeCaptureReplay indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to capture compute pipeline address and reuse later for replay in Device-Generated Commands.

If the VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.
