C Specification

The VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT structure specifies the input data for the VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_TOKEN_TYPE_INDEX_BUFFER_EXT token.

// Provided by VK_EXT_device_generated_commands
typedef struct VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT {
    VkDeviceAddress    bufferAddress;
    uint32_t           size;
    VkIndexType        indexType;
} VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT;

Members

  • bufferAddress specifies a physical address of the VkBuffer used as index buffer.

  • size is the byte size range which is available for this operation from the provided address.

  • indexType is a VkIndexType value specifying how indices are treated.

Description

Valid Usage
  • VUID-VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT-None-11117
    The buffer’s usage flags from which the address was acquired must have the VK_BUFFER_USAGE_INDEX_BUFFER_BIT bit set

  • VUID-VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT-bufferAddress-11118
    The bufferAddress must be aligned to the VkIndexType of the indexType used

  • VUID-VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT-None-11119
    Each element of the buffer from which the address was acquired and that is non-sparse must be bound completely and contiguously to a single VkDeviceMemory object

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkBindIndexBufferIndirectCommandEXT-indexType-parameter
    indexType must be a valid VkIndexType value
