VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures

Structure indicating support for copies to or from images from host memory

The VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 hostImageCopy;
} VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures;

or the equivalent

typedef VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeaturesEXT;

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.
  • hostImageCopy indicates that the implementation supports copying from host memory to images using the vkCopyMemoryToImage command, copying from images to host memory using the vkCopyImageToMemory command, and copying between images using the vkCopyImageToImage command.

If the VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures 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 VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures, 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.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceHostImageCopyFeatures-sType-sType

sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_HOST_IMAGE_COPY_FEATURES
