VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT

Structure describing the nested command buffer limits of an implementation

The VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    uint32_t maxCommandBufferNestingLevel;
} VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT;

The members of the VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT structure describe the following features:

  • maxCommandBufferNestingLevel indicates the maximum nesting level of calls to vkCmdExecuteCommands from Secondary Command Buffers. A maxCommandBufferNestingLevel of UINT32_MAX means there is no limit to the nesting level.

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

Valid Usage (Implicit)

VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceNestedCommandBufferPropertiesEXT-sType-sType

sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_NESTED_COMMAND_BUFFER_PROPERTIES_EXT
