VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties

The VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkDriverId driverID;
    char driverName[VK_MAX_DRIVER_NAME_SIZE];
    char driverInfo[VK_MAX_DRIVER_INFO_SIZE];
    VkConformanceVersion conformanceVersion;
} VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties;

or the equivalent

typedef VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties VkPhysicalDeviceDriverPropertiesKHR;

• sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
• pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
• driverID is a unique identifier for the driver of the physical device.
• driverName is an array of VK_MAX_DRIVER_NAME_SIZE char containing a null-terminated UTF-8 string which is the name of the driver.
• driverInfo is an array of VK_MAX_DRIVER_INFO_SIZE char containing a null-terminated UTF-8 string with additional information about the driver.
• conformanceVersion is the latest version of the Vulkan conformance test that the implementor has successfully tested this driver against prior to release (see VkConformanceVersion).

If the VkPhysicalDeviceDriverProperties structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each corresponding implementation-dependent property.

These are properties of the driver corresponding to a physical device.

driverID must be immutable for a given driver across instances, processes, driver versions, and system reboots.
