C Specification

The VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_KHR_video_decode_queue
typedef struct VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR {
    VkStructureType                       sType;
    const void*                           pNext;
    VkVideoDecodeFlagsKHR                 flags;
    VkBuffer                              srcBuffer;
    VkDeviceSize                          srcBufferOffset;
    VkDeviceSize                          srcBufferRange;
    VkVideoPictureResourceInfoKHR         dstPictureResource;
    const VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR*    pSetupReferenceSlot;
    uint32_t                              referenceSlotCount;
    const VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR*    pReferenceSlots;
} VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • flags is reserved for future use.

  • srcBuffer is the source video bitstream buffer to read the encoded bitstream from.

  • srcBufferOffset is the starting offset in bytes from the start of srcBuffer to read the encoded bitstream from.

  • srcBufferRange is the size in bytes of the encoded bitstream to decode from srcBuffer, starting from srcBufferOffset.

  • dstPictureResource is the video picture resource to use as the decode output picture.

  • pSetupReferenceSlot is NULL or a pointer to a VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR structure describing the DPB slot to activate and the video picture resource to use as the reconstructed picture to activate the DPB slot with.

  • referenceSlotCount is the number of elements in the pReferenceSlots array.

  • pReferenceSlots is NULL or a pointer to an array of VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR structures describing the DPB slots and corresponding reference picture resources to use in this video decode operation (the set of active reference pictures).

Description

Valid Usage

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-srcBuffer-07165
    srcBuffer must have been created with VK_BUFFER_USAGE_VIDEO_DECODE_SRC_BIT_KHR set

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-srcBufferOffset-07166
    srcBufferOffset must be less than the size of srcBuffer

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-srcBufferRange-07167
    srcBufferRange must be less than or equal to the size of srcBuffer minus srcBufferOffset

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pSetupReferenceSlot-07168
    If pSetupReferenceSlot is not NULL, then its slotIndex member must not be negative

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pSetupReferenceSlot-07169
    If pSetupReferenceSlot is not NULL, then its pPictureResource must not be NULL

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-slotIndex-07171
    The slotIndex member of each element of pReferenceSlots must not be negative

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pPictureResource-07172
    The pPictureResource member of each element of pReferenceSlots must not be NULL

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_VIDEO_DECODE_INFO_KHR

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pNext-pNext
    Each pNext member of any structure (including this one) in the pNext chain must be either NULL or a pointer to a valid instance of VkVideoDecodeH264PictureInfoKHR or VkVideoDecodeH265PictureInfoKHR

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-sType-unique
    The sType value of each struct in the pNext chain must be unique

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-flags-zerobitmask
    flags must be 0

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-srcBuffer-parameter
    srcBuffer must be a valid VkBuffer handle

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-dstPictureResource-parameter
    dstPictureResource must be a valid VkVideoPictureResourceInfoKHR structure

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pSetupReferenceSlot-parameter
    If pSetupReferenceSlot is not NULL, pSetupReferenceSlot must be a valid pointer to a valid VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR structure

  • VUID-VkVideoDecodeInfoKHR-pReferenceSlots-parameter
    If referenceSlotCount is not 0, pReferenceSlots must be a valid pointer to an array of referenceSlotCount valid VkVideoReferenceSlotInfoKHR structures
