VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR

Structure describing support for pipeline binaries

The VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 pipelineBinaries;
} VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR;

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.
  • pipelineBinaries indicates that the implementation supports Pipeline Binaries.

If the VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR 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 VkPhysicalDevicePipelineBinaryFeaturesKHR, 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.
