C Specification

Indirect Execution Sets are created by calling:

// Provided by VK_EXT_device_generated_commands
VkResult vkCreateIndirectExecutionSetEXT(
    VkDevice                                    device,
    const VkIndirectExecutionSetCreateInfoEXT*  pCreateInfo,
    const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator,
    VkIndirectExecutionSetEXT*                  pIndirectExecutionSet);

Parameters

  • device is the logical device that creates the indirect execution set.

  • pCreateInfo is a pointer to a VkIndirectExecutionSetCreateInfoEXT structure containing parameters affecting creation of the indirect execution set.

  • pAllocator controls host memory allocation as described in the Memory Allocation chapter.

  • pIndirectExecutionSet is a pointer to a VkIndirectExecutionSetEXT handle in which the resulting indirect execution set is returned.

Description

Valid Usage
Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCreateIndirectExecutionSetEXT-device-parameter
    device must be a valid VkDevice handle

  • VUID-vkCreateIndirectExecutionSetEXT-pCreateInfo-parameter
    pCreateInfo must be a valid pointer to a valid VkIndirectExecutionSetCreateInfoEXT structure

  • VUID-vkCreateIndirectExecutionSetEXT-pAllocator-parameter
    If pAllocator is not NULL, pAllocator must be a valid pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

  • VUID-vkCreateIndirectExecutionSetEXT-pIndirectExecutionSet-parameter
    pIndirectExecutionSet must be a valid pointer to a VkIndirectExecutionSetEXT handle

Return Codes
On success, this command returns
  • VK_SUCCESS

On failure, this command returns
  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY

  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY
