C Specification

The VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_NV_extended_sparse_address_space
typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    void*              pNext;
    VkBool32           extendedSparseAddressSpace;
} VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV;

Members

This structure describes the following feature:

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • extendedSparseAddressSpace indicates that the implementation supports allowing certain usages of sparse memory resources to exceed VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::sparseAddressSpaceSize. See VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpacePropertiesNV.

Description

If the VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV can also be used in the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo to selectively enable these features.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceExtendedSparseAddressSpaceFeaturesNV-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_EXTENDED_SPARSE_ADDRESS_SPACE_FEATURES_NV
