VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT

Structure specifying custom border color

In addition to the predefined border color values, applications can provide a custom border color value by including the VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT structure in the VkSamplerCreateInfo::pNext chain.

The VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT {
    VkStructureType sType;
    const void* pNext;
    VkClearColorValue customBorderColor;
    VkFormat format;
} VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT;
  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
  • customBorderColor is a VkClearColorValue representing the desired custom sampler border color.
  • format is a VkFormat representing the format of the sampled image view(s). This field may be VK_FORMAT_UNDEFINED if the customBorderColorWithoutFormat feature is enabled.

If format is a depth/stencil format, the aspect is determined by the value of VkSamplerCreateInfo::borderColor. If VkSamplerCreateInfo::borderColor is VK_BORDER_COLOR_FLOAT_CUSTOM_EXT, the depth aspect is considered. If VkSamplerCreateInfo::borderColor is VK_BORDER_COLOR_INT_CUSTOM_EXT, the stencil aspect is considered.

If format is VK_FORMAT_UNDEFINED, the VkSamplerCreateInfo::borderColor is VK_BORDER_COLOR_INT_CUSTOM_EXT, and the sampler is used with an image with a stencil format, then the implementation must source the custom border color from either the first or second components of VkSamplerCreateInfo::customBorderColor and should source it from the first component.

Valid Usage

VUID-VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT-format-07605

If format is not VK_FORMAT_UNDEFINED and format is not a depth/stencil format then the VkSamplerCreateInfo::borderColor type must match the sampled type of the provided format, as shown in the SPIR-V Type column of the Table 67. Interpretation of Numeric Format table

VUID-VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT-format-04014

If the customBorderColorWithoutFormat feature is not enabled then format must not be VK_FORMAT_UNDEFINED

VUID-VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT-format-04015

If the sampler is used to sample an image view of VK_FORMAT_B4G4R4A4_UNORM_PACK16, VK_FORMAT_B5G6R5_UNORM_PACK16, VK_FORMAT_A1B5G5R5_UNORM_PACK16_KHR, or VK_FORMAT_B5G5R5A1_UNORM_PACK16 format then format must not be VK_FORMAT_UNDEFINED

Valid Usage (Implicit)

VUID-VkSamplerCustomBorderColorCreateInfoEXT-sType-sType

sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_SAMPLER_CUSTOM_BORDER_COLOR_CREATE_INFO_EXT
