C Specification

When shading rate image usage is enabled in the bound pipeline, the pipeline uses a shading rate image specified by the command:

// Provided by VK_NV_shading_rate_image
void vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    VkImageView                                 imageView,
    VkImageLayout                               imageLayout);

Parameters

  • commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.

  • imageView is an image view handle specifying the shading rate image. imageView may be set to VK_NULL_HANDLE, which is equivalent to specifying a view of an image filled with zero values.

  • imageLayout is the layout that the image subresources accessible from imageView will be in when the shading rate image is accessed.

Description

Valid Usage
  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-None-02058
    The shadingRateImage feature must be enabled

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageView-02059
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, it must be a valid VkImageView handle of type VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_2D or VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_2D_ARRAY

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageView-02060
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, it must have a format of VK_FORMAT_R8_UINT

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageView-02061
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, it must have been created with a usage value including VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SHADING_RATE_IMAGE_BIT_NV

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageView-02062
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, imageLayout must match the actual VkImageLayout of each subresource accessible from imageView at the time the subresource is accessed

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageLayout-02063
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, imageLayout must be VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_SHADING_RATE_OPTIMAL_NV or VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_GENERAL

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-commandBuffer-parameter
    commandBuffer must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageView-parameter
    If imageView is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, imageView must be a valid VkImageView handle

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-imageLayout-parameter
    imageLayout must be a valid VkImageLayout value

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-commandBuffer-recording
    commandBuffer must be in the recording state

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-commandBuffer-cmdpool
    The VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics operations

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-videocoding
    This command must only be called outside of a video coding scope

  • VUID-vkCmdBindShadingRateImageNV-commonparent
    Both of commandBuffer, and imageView that are valid handles of non-ignored parameters must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from the same VkDevice

Host Synchronization
  • Host access to commandBuffer must be externally synchronized

  • Host access to the VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must be externally synchronized
