vkGetGeneratedCommandsMemoryRequirementsEXT

Retrieve the buffer allocation requirements for generated commands

With VK_EXT_device_generated_commands, to retrieve the memory size and alignment requirements of a particular execution state call:

void vkGetGeneratedCommandsMemoryRequirementsEXT(
    VkDevice device,
    const VkGeneratedCommandsMemoryRequirementsInfoEXT* pInfo,
    VkMemoryRequirements2* pMemoryRequirements);
  • device is the logical device that owns the buffer.
  • pInfo is a pointer to a VkGeneratedCommandsMemoryRequirementsInfoEXT structure containing parameters required for the memory requirements query.
  • pMemoryRequirements is a pointer to a VkMemoryRequirements2 structure in which the memory requirements of the buffer object are returned.

If the size returned is zero, the preprocessing step can be skipped for this layout.
