VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV

The VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 perStageDescriptorSet;
    VkBool32 dynamicPipelineLayout;
} VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV;

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.
• perStageDescriptorSet indicates that the implementation allows the VK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_PER_STAGE_BIT_NV descriptor set layout creation flag to be used so the bindings are specified per-stage rather than across all stages.
• dynamicPipelineLayout indicates the implementation allows the layout member of VkBindDescriptorSetsInfoKHR, VkPushConstantsInfoKHR, VkPushDescriptorSetInfoKHR, VkPushDescriptorSetWithTemplateInfoKHR, VkSetDescriptorBufferOffsetsInfoEXT and VkBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersInfoEXT to be VK_NULL_HANDLE and VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo can be chained off those structures' pNext instead.

If the VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV 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. VkPhysicalDevicePerStageDescriptorSetFeaturesNV can also be used in the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo to selectively enable these features.
