VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV

The VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 extendedSparseAddressSpace;
} VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV;

This structure describes the following feature:

• sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
• pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
• extendedSparseAddressSpace indicates that the implementation supports allowing certain usages of sparse memory resources to exceed VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::sparseAddressSpaceSize. See VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpacePropertiesNV.

If the VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV 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 VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV, 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.
