C Specification
Bits which can be set in VkBufferCreateInfo::flags, specifying
additional parameters of a buffer, are:
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
typedef enum VkBufferCreateFlagBits {
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT = 0x00000001,
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BIT = 0x00000002,
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_ALIASED_BIT = 0x00000004,
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_PROTECTED_BIT = 0x00000008,
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_2
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_DEVICE_ADDRESS_CAPTURE_REPLAY_BIT = 0x00000010,
} VkBufferCreateFlagBits;Description
-
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BITspecifies that the buffer will be backed using sparse memory binding. This flag is not supported in Vulkan SC https://registry.khronos.org/vulkansc/specs/1.0-extensions/html/vkspec.html#SCID-8. -
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_RESIDENCY_BITspecifies that the buffer can be partially backed using sparse memory binding. Buffers created with this flag must also be created with theVK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BITflag. This flag is not supported in Vulkan SC https://registry.khronos.org/vulkansc/specs/1.0-extensions/html/vkspec.html#SCID-8. -
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_ALIASED_BITspecifies that the buffer will be backed using sparse memory binding with memory ranges that might also simultaneously be backing another buffer (or another portion of the same buffer). Buffers created with this flag must also be created with theVK_BUFFER_CREATE_SPARSE_BINDING_BITflag. This flag is not supported in Vulkan SC https://registry.khronos.org/vulkansc/specs/1.0-extensions/html/vkspec.html#SCID-8. -
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_PROTECTED_BITspecifies that the buffer is a protected buffer. -
VK_BUFFER_CREATE_DEVICE_ADDRESS_CAPTURE_REPLAY_BITspecifies that the buffer’s address can be saved and reused on a subsequent run (e.g. for trace capture and replay), see VkBufferOpaqueCaptureAddressCreateInfo for more detail.
See Sparse Resource Features and Physical Device Features for details of the sparse memory features supported on a device.
