C Specification

The XrGraphicsBindingVulkanKHR structure is defined as:

// Provided by XR_KHR_vulkan_enable
typedef struct XrGraphicsBindingVulkanKHR {
    XrStructureType     type;
    const void*         next;
    VkInstance          instance;
    VkPhysicalDevice    physicalDevice;
    VkDevice            device;
    uint32_t            queueFamilyIndex;
    uint32_t            queueIndex;
} XrGraphicsBindingVulkanKHR;

Members

Member Descriptions

  • type is the XrStructureType of this structure.

  • next is NULL or a pointer to the next structure in a structure chain. No such structures are defined in core OpenXR or this extension.

  • instance is a valid Vulkan VkInstance.

  • physicalDevice is a valid Vulkan VkPhysicalDevice.

  • device is a valid Vulkan VkDevice.

  • queueFamilyIndex is a valid queue family index on device.

  • queueIndex is a valid queue index on device to be used for synchronization.

Description

To create a Vulkan-backed XrSession, the application provides a pointer to an XrGraphicsBindingVulkanKHR structure in the XrSessionCreateInfo::next chain when calling xrCreateSession.

Valid Usage

Creating a session using this structure triggers several requirements on the runtime regarding swapchain images. See the specification of XrSwapchainImageVulkanKHR for details. The application must externally synchronize the queue referred to by this structure according to https://registry.khronos.org/OpenXR/specs/1.1/html/xrspec.html#khr_vulkan_enable-concurrency.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
