C Specification
Validation cache objects allow the result of internal validation to be reused, both within a single application run and between multiple runs. Reuse within a single run is achieved by passing the same validation cache object when creating supported Vulkan objects. Reuse across runs of an application is achieved by retrieving validation cache contents in one run of an application, saving the contents, and using them to preinitialize a validation cache on a subsequent run. The contents of the validation cache objects are managed by the validation layers. Applications can manage the host memory consumed by a validation cache object and control the amount of data retrieved from a validation cache object.
Validation cache objects are represented by VkValidationCacheEXT
handles:
