C Specification

In order to be able to allocate descriptor sets having inline uniform block bindings the descriptor pool must be created with specifying the inline uniform block binding capacity of the descriptor pool, in addition to the total inline uniform data capacity in bytes which is specified through a VkDescriptorPoolSize structure with a descriptorType value of VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_INLINE_UNIFORM_BLOCK. This can be done by adding a VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo structure to the pNext chain of VkDescriptorPoolCreateInfo.

The VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
typedef struct VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    const void*        pNext;
    uint32_t           maxInlineUniformBlockBindings;
} VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo;

or the equivalent

// Provided by VK_EXT_inline_uniform_block
typedef VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfoEXT;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • maxInlineUniformBlockBindings is the number of inline uniform block bindings to allocate.

Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR_POOL_INLINE_UNIFORM_BLOCK_CREATE_INFO
