C Specification

To copy regions of a source image into a destination image, potentially performing format conversion, arbitrary scaling, and filtering, call:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
void vkCmdBlitImage2(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    const VkBlitImageInfo2*                     pBlitImageInfo);

or the equivalent command

// Provided by VK_KHR_copy_commands2
void vkCmdBlitImage2KHR(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    const VkBlitImageInfo2*                     pBlitImageInfo);

Parameters

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

  • pBlitImageInfo is a pointer to a VkBlitImageInfo2 structure describing the blit parameters.

Description

This command is functionally identical to vkCmdBlitImage, but includes extensible sub-structures that include sType and pNext parameters, allowing them to be more easily extended.

Valid Usage
  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-01834
    If commandBuffer is an unprotected command buffer and protectedNoFault is not supported, srcImage must not be a protected image

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-01835
    If commandBuffer is an unprotected command buffer and protectedNoFault is not supported, dstImage must not be a protected image

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-01836
    If commandBuffer is a protected command buffer and protectedNoFault is not supported, dstImage must not be an unprotected image

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-parameter
    commandBuffer must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-pBlitImageInfo-parameter
    pBlitImageInfo must be a valid pointer to a valid VkBlitImageInfo2 structure

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-recording
    commandBuffer must be in the recording state

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-commandBuffer-cmdpool
    The VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics operations

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-renderpass
    This command must only be called outside of a render pass instance

  • VUID-vkCmdBlitImage2-videocoding
    This command must only be called outside of a video coding scope

Host Synchronization
  • Host access to commandBuffer must be externally synchronized

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