C Specification

The VkAttachmentReference2 structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_2
typedef struct VkAttachmentReference2 {
    VkStructureType       sType;
    const void*           pNext;
    uint32_t              attachment;
    VkImageLayout         layout;
    VkImageAspectFlags    aspectMask;
} VkAttachmentReference2;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_KHR_create_renderpass2
typedef VkAttachmentReference2 VkAttachmentReference2KHR;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • attachment is either an integer value identifying an attachment at the corresponding index in VkRenderPassCreateInfo2::pAttachments, or VK_ATTACHMENT_UNUSED to signify that this attachment is not used.

  • layout is a VkImageLayout value specifying the layout the attachment uses during the subpass.

  • aspectMask is a mask of which aspect(s) can be accessed within the specified subpass as an input attachment.

Description

Parameters defined by this structure with the same name as those in VkAttachmentReference have the identical effect to those parameters.

aspectMask is ignored when this structure is used to describe anything other than an input attachment reference.

If the separateDepthStencilLayouts feature is enabled, and attachment has a depth/stencil format, layout can be set to a layout that only specifies the layout of the depth aspect.

If layout only specifies the layout of the depth aspect of the attachment, the layout of the stencil aspect is specified by the stencilLayout member of a VkAttachmentReferenceStencilLayout structure included in the pNext chain. Otherwise, layout describes the layout for all relevant image aspects.

Valid Usage
  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-layout-03077
    If attachment is not VK_ATTACHMENT_UNUSED, layout must not be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_UNDEFINED, VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PREINITIALIZED, or VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_PRESENT_SRC_KHR

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-separateDepthStencilLayouts-03313
    If the separateDepthStencilLayouts feature is not enabled, and attachment is not VK_ATTACHMENT_UNUSED, layout must not be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_ATTACHMENT_OPTIMAL, VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_DEPTH_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL, VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT_OPTIMAL, or VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_STENCIL_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL,

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-synchronization2-06910
    If the synchronization2 feature is not enabled, layout must not be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_ATTACHMENT_OPTIMAL_KHR or VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_READ_ONLY_OPTIMAL_KHR

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-attachmentFeedbackLoopLayout-07311
    If the attachmentFeedbackLoopLayout feature is not enabled, layout must not be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_ATTACHMENT_FEEDBACK_LOOP_OPTIMAL_EXT

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-dynamicRenderingLocalRead-09546
    If the dynamicRenderingLocalRead feature is not enabled, layout must not be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_RENDERING_LOCAL_READ_KHR

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_ATTACHMENT_REFERENCE_2

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-pNext-pNext
    pNext must be NULL or a pointer to a valid instance of VkAttachmentReferenceStencilLayout

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-sType-unique
    The sType value of each struct in the pNext chain must be unique

  • VUID-VkAttachmentReference2-layout-parameter
    layout must be a valid VkImageLayout value
