vkUpdateDescriptorSets

Once allocated, descriptor sets can be updated with a combination of write and copy operations. To update descriptor sets, call:

void vkUpdateDescriptorSets(
    VkDevice device,
    uint32_t descriptorWriteCount,
    const VkWriteDescriptorSet* pDescriptorWrites,
    uint32_t descriptorCopyCount,
    const VkCopyDescriptorSet* pDescriptorCopies);

• device is the logical device that updates the descriptor sets.
• descriptorWriteCount is the number of elements in the pDescriptorWrites array.
• pDescriptorWrites is a pointer to an array of VkWriteDescriptorSet structures describing the descriptor sets to write to.
• descriptorCopyCount is the number of elements in the pDescriptorCopies array.
• pDescriptorCopies is a pointer to an array of VkCopyDescriptorSet structures describing the descriptor sets to copy between.

The operations described by pDescriptorWrites are performed first, followed by the operations described by pDescriptorCopies. Within each array, the operations are performed in the order they appear in the array.

Each element in the pDescriptorWrites array describes an operation updating the descriptor set using descriptors for resources specified in the structure.

Each element in the pDescriptorCopies array is a VkCopyDescriptorSet structure describing an operation copying descriptors between sets.

If the dstSet member of any element of pDescriptorWrites or pDescriptorCopies is bound, accessed, or modified by any command that was recorded to a command buffer which is currently in the recording or executable state, and any of the descriptor bindings that are updated were not created with the VK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_UPDATE_AFTER_BIND_BIT or VK_DESCRIPTOR_BINDING_UPDATE_UNUSED_WHILE_PENDING_BIT bits set, that command buffer becomes invalid.
