VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentShadingRatePropertiesKHR(3) Manual Page

sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

minFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize indicates minimum supported width and height of the portion of the framebuffer corresponding to each texel in a fragment shading rate attachment. Each value must be less than or equal to the values in maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize. Each value must be a power-of-two. It must be (0,0) if the attachmentFragmentShadingRate feature is not supported.

maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize indicates maximum supported width and height of the portion of the framebuffer corresponding to each texel in a fragment shading rate attachment. Each value must be greater than or equal to the values in minFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize. Each value must be a power-of-two. It must be (0,0) if the attachmentFragmentShadingRate feature is not supported.

maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSizeAspectRatio indicates the maximum ratio between the width and height of the portion of the framebuffer corresponding to each texel in a fragment shading rate attachment. maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSizeAspectRatio must be a power-of-two value, and must be less than or equal to max(maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize.width / minFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize.height, maxFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize.height / minFragmentShadingRateAttachmentTexelSize.width). It must be 0 if the attachmentFragmentShadingRate feature is not supported.

primitiveFragmentShadingRateWithMultipleViewports specifies whether the primitive fragment shading rate can be used when multiple viewports are used. If this value is VK_FALSE, only a single viewport must be used, and applications must not write to the ViewportIndex built-in when setting PrimitiveShadingRateKHR. It must be VK_FALSE if the shaderOutputViewportIndex feature, or the geometryShader feature is not supported, or if the primitiveFragmentShadingRate feature is not supported.

layeredShadingRateAttachments specifies whether a shading rate attachment image view can be created with multiple layers. If this value is VK_FALSE, when creating an image view with a usage that includes VK_IMAGE_USAGE_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_ATTACHMENT_BIT_KHR, layerCount must be 1. It must be VK_FALSE if the multiview feature, the shaderOutputViewportIndex feature, or the geometryShader feature is not supported, or if the attachmentFragmentShadingRate feature is not supported.

fragmentShadingRateNonTrivialCombinerOps specifies whether VkFragmentShadingRateCombinerOpKHR enums other than VK_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_COMBINER_OP_KEEP_KHR or VK_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_COMBINER_OP_REPLACE_KHR can be used. It must be VK_FALSE unless either the primitiveFragmentShadingRate or attachmentFragmentShadingRate feature is supported.

maxFragmentSize indicates the maximum supported width and height of a fragment. Its width and height members must both be power-of-two values. This limit is purely informational, and is not validated.

maxFragmentSizeAspectRatio indicates the maximum ratio between the width and height of a fragment. maxFragmentSizeAspectRatio must be a power-of-two value, and must be less than or equal to the maximum of the width and height members of maxFragmentSize. This limit is purely informational, and is not validated.

maxFragmentShadingRateCoverageSamples specifies the maximum number of coverage samples supported in a single fragment. maxFragmentShadingRateCoverageSamples must be less than or equal to the product of the width and height members of maxFragmentSize, and the sample count reported by maxFragmentShadingRateRasterizationSamples. maxFragmentShadingRateCoverageSamples must be less than or equal to maxSampleMaskWords × 32 if fragmentShadingRateWithShaderSampleMask is supported. This limit is purely informational, and is not validated.

maxFragmentShadingRateRasterizationSamples is a VkSampleCountFlagBits value specifying the maximum sample rate supported when a fragment covers multiple pixels. This limit is purely informational, and is not validated.

fragmentShadingRateWithShaderDepthStencilWrites specifies whether the implementation supports writing FragDepth or FragStencilRefEXT from a fragment shader for multi-pixel fragments. If this value is VK_FALSE, writing to those built-ins will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateWithSampleMask specifies whether the implementation supports setting valid bits of VkPipelineMultisampleStateCreateInfo::pSampleMask to 0 for multi-pixel fragments. If this value is VK_FALSE, zeroing valid bits in the sample mask will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateWithShaderSampleMask specifies whether the implementation supports reading or writing SampleMask for multi-pixel fragments. If this value is VK_FALSE, using that built-in will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateWithConservativeRasterization specifies whether conservative rasterization is supported for multi-pixel fragments. It must be VK_FALSE if VK_EXT_conservative_rasterization is not supported. If this value is VK_FALSE, using conservative rasterization will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateWithFragmentShaderInterlock specifies whether fragment shader interlock is supported for multi-pixel fragments. It must be VK_FALSE if VK_EXT_fragment_shader_interlock is not supported. If this value is VK_FALSE, using fragment shader interlock will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateWithCustomSampleLocations specifies whether custom sample locations are supported for multi-pixel fragments. It must be VK_FALSE if VK_EXT_sample_locations is not supported. If this value is VK_FALSE, using custom sample locations will clamp the fragment shading rate to (1,1).

fragmentShadingRateStrictMultiplyCombiner specifies whether VK_FRAGMENT_SHADING_RATE_COMBINER_OP_MUL_KHR accurately performs a multiplication or not. Implementations where this value is VK_FALSE will instead combine rates with an addition. If fragmentShadingRateNonTrivialCombinerOps is VK_FALSE, implementations must report this as VK_FALSE. If fragmentShadingRateNonTrivialCombinerOps is VK_TRUE, implementations should report this as VK_TRUE.
