C Specification

To use a VkValidationCacheEXT to cache shader validation results, add a VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT structure to the pNext chain of the VkShaderModuleCreateInfo structure, specifying the cache object to use.

The VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT struct is defined as:

// Provided by VK_EXT_validation_cache
typedef struct VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT {
    VkStructureType         sType;
    const void*             pNext;
    VkValidationCacheEXT    validationCache;
} VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • validationCache is the validation cache object from which the results of prior validation attempts will be written, and to which new validation results for this VkShaderModule will be written (if not already present).

Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_SHADER_MODULE_VALIDATION_CACHE_CREATE_INFO_EXT

  • VUID-VkShaderModuleValidationCacheCreateInfoEXT-validationCache-parameter
    validationCache must be a valid VkValidationCacheEXT handle
