# VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV - Structure describing the device-generated compute features that can be supported by an implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_device_generated_commands_compute
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           deviceGeneratedCompute;
        VkBool32           deviceGeneratedComputePipelines;
        VkBool32           deviceGeneratedComputeCaptureReplay;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV;

## Members

This structure describes the following features:

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `deviceGeneratedCompute` indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to generate dispatch commands and push constants for the compute pipeline on the device. See Device-Generated Commands.

- `deviceGeneratedComputePipelines` indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to generate commands to bind compute pipelines on the device. See Device-Generated Commands.

- `deviceGeneratedComputeCaptureReplay` indicates whether the implementation supports functionality to capture compute pipeline address and reuse later for replay in Device-Generated Commands.

## Description

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by `VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV`, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to `VK_TRUE`, to the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_DEVICE_GENERATED_COMMANDS_COMPUTE_FEATURES_NV`
