VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures

The VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures {
    VkStructureType sType;
    void* pNext;
    VkBool32 pipelineCreationCacheControl;
} VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures;

or the equivalent

typedef VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeaturesEXT;

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.
• pipelineCreationCacheControl indicates that the implementation supports:
  • The following can be used in Vk*PipelineCreateInfo::flags:
    • VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_FAIL_ON_PIPELINE_COMPILE_REQUIRED_BIT
    • VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_EARLY_RETURN_ON_FAILURE_BIT
  • The following can be used in VkPipelineCacheCreateInfo::flags:
    • VK_PIPELINE_CACHE_CREATE_EXTERNALLY_SYNCHRONIZED_BIT

If the VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures 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 VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures, 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.
