C Specification

A command buffer debug label region can be opened by calling:

// Provided by VK_EXT_debug_utils
void vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    const VkDebugUtilsLabelEXT*                 pLabelInfo);

Parameters

  • commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command is recorded.

  • pLabelInfo is a pointer to a VkDebugUtilsLabelEXT structure specifying parameters of the label region to open.

Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

    commandBuffer must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

  • VUID-vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT-pLabelInfo-parameter
    pLabelInfo must be a valid pointer to a valid VkDebugUtilsLabelEXT structure

  • VUID-vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT-commandBuffer-recording
    commandBuffer must be in the recording state

  • VUID-vkCmdBeginDebugUtilsLabelEXT-commandBuffer-cmdpool
    The VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics, or compute operations
