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