vkReleaseSwapchainImagesEXT

To release images previously acquired through vkAcquireNextImage2KHR or vkAcquireNextImageKHR, call:

VkResult vkReleaseSwapchainImagesEXT(
    VkDevice device,
    const VkReleaseSwapchainImagesInfoEXT* pReleaseInfo);

• device is the device associated with VkReleaseSwapchainImagesInfoEXT::swapchain.
• pReleaseInfo is a pointer to a VkReleaseSwapchainImagesInfoEXT structure containing parameters of the release.

Only images that are not in use by the device can be released.

Releasing images is a read-only operation that will not affect the content of the released images. Upon reacquiring the image, the image contents and its layout will be the same as they were prior to releasing it. However, if a mechanism other than Vulkan is used to modify the platform window associated with the swapchain, the content of all presentable images in the swapchain becomes undefined:.
