C Specification

To provide Hdr metadata to an implementation, call:

// Provided by VK_EXT_hdr_metadata
void vkSetHdrMetadataEXT(
    VkDevice                                    device,
    uint32_t                                    swapchainCount,
    const VkSwapchainKHR*                       pSwapchains,
    const VkHdrMetadataEXT*                     pMetadata);

Parameters

  • device is the logical device where the swapchain(s) were created.

  • swapchainCount is the number of swapchains included in pSwapchains.

  • pSwapchains is a pointer to an array of swapchainCount VkSwapchainKHR handles.

  • pMetadata is a pointer to an array of swapchainCount VkHdrMetadataEXT structures.

Description

The metadata will be applied to the specified VkSwapchainKHR objects at the next vkQueuePresentKHR call using that VkSwapchainKHR object. The metadata will persist until a subsequent vkSetHdrMetadataEXT changes it.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-vkSetHdrMetadataEXT-device-parameter
    device must be a valid VkDevice handle

  • VUID-vkSetHdrMetadataEXT-pSwapchains-parameter
    pSwapchains must be a valid pointer to an array of swapchainCount valid VkSwapchainKHR handles

  • VUID-vkSetHdrMetadataEXT-pMetadata-parameter
    pMetadata must be a valid pointer to an array of swapchainCount valid VkHdrMetadataEXT structures

  • VUID-vkSetHdrMetadataEXT-swapchainCount-arraylength
    swapchainCount must be greater than 0

  • VUID-vkSetHdrMetadataEXT-pSwapchains-parent
    Each element of pSwapchains must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from device
