VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR

Structure describing a Win32 handle semaphore export operation

The VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR {
    VkStructureType sType;
    const void* pNext;
    VkSemaphore semaphore;
    VkExternalSemaphoreHandleTypeFlagBits handleType;
} VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR;
  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.
  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.
  • semaphore is the semaphore from which state will be exported.
  • handleType is a VkExternalSemaphoreHandleTypeFlagBits value specifying the type of handle requested.

The properties of the handle returned depend on the value of handleType. See VkExternalSemaphoreHandleTypeFlagBits for a description of the properties of the defined external semaphore handle types.

Valid Usage

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-handleType-01126

handleType must have been included in VkExportSemaphoreCreateInfo::handleTypes when the semaphore’s current payload was created

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-handleType-01127

If handleType is defined as an NT handle, vkGetSemaphoreWin32HandleKHR must be called no more than once for each valid unique combination of semaphore and handleType

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-semaphore-01128

semaphore must not currently have its payload replaced by an imported payload as described below in Importing Semaphore Payloads unless that imported payload’s handle type was included in VkExternalSemaphoreProperties::exportFromImportedHandleTypes for handleType

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-handleType-01129

If handleType refers to a handle type with copy payload transference semantics, as defined below in Importing Semaphore Payloads, there must be no queue waiting on semaphore

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-handleType-01130

If handleType refers to a handle type with copy payload transference semantics, semaphore must be signaled, or have an associated semaphore signal operation pending execution

VUID-VkSemaphoreGetWin32HandleInfoKHR-handleType-01131

handleType must be defined as an NT handle or a global share handle
