Description
This extension allows descriptors to be written into the command buffer, while the implementation is responsible for managing their memory. Push descriptors may enable easier porting from older APIs and in some cases can be more efficient than writing descriptors into descriptor sets.
New Enum Constants

VK_KHR_PUSH_DESCRIPTOR_EXTENSION_NAME
-
VK_KHR_PUSH_DESCRIPTOR_SPEC_VERSION
-
Extending VkDescriptorSetLayoutCreateFlagBits:
-
VK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_PUSH_DESCRIPTOR_BIT_KHR

Promotion to Vulkan 1.4
Functionality in this extension is included in core Vulkan 1.4 with the KHR suffix omitted. The original type, enum and command names are still available as aliases of the core functionality.
