C Specification

The VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_2
typedef struct VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    const void*        pNext;
    VkBuffer           buffer;
} VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_KHR_buffer_device_address
typedef VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo VkBufferDeviceAddressInfoKHR;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_EXT_buffer_device_address
typedef VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo VkBufferDeviceAddressInfoEXT;

Members

  • sType is the type of this structure.

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

  • buffer specifies the buffer whose address is being queried.

Description

Valid Usage

  • VUID-VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo-buffer-02600
    If buffer is non-sparse and was not created with the VK_BUFFER_CREATE_DEVICE_ADDRESS_CAPTURE_REPLAY_BIT flag, then it must be bound completely and contiguously to a single VkDeviceMemory object

  • VUID-VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo-buffer-02601
    buffer must have been created with VK_BUFFER_USAGE_SHADER_DEVICE_ADDRESS_BIT

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_BUFFER_DEVICE_ADDRESS_INFO

  • VUID-VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo-pNext-pNext
    pNext must be NULL

  • VUID-VkBufferDeviceAddressInfo-buffer-parameter
    buffer must be a valid VkBuffer handle
