C Specification

The VkIndirectCommandsLayoutCreateInfoNVX structure is defined as:

typedef struct VkIndirectCommandsLayoutCreateInfoNVX {
    VkStructureType                            sType;
    const void*                                pNext;
    VkPipelineBindPoint                        pipelineBindPoint;
    VkIndirectCommandsLayoutUsageFlagsNVX      flags;
    uint32_t                                   tokenCount;
    const VkIndirectCommandsLayoutTokenNVX*    pTokens;
} VkIndirectCommandsLayoutCreateInfoNVX;

Description

The following code illustrates some of the key flags:

void cmdProcessAllSequences(cmd, objectTable, indirectCommandsLayout, pIndirectCommandsTokens, sequencesCount, indexbuffer, indexbufferoffset)
{
  for (s = 0; s < sequencesCount; s++)
  {
    sequence = s;

    if (indirectCommandsLayout.flags & VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_UNORDERED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NVX) {
      sequence = incoherent_implementation_dependent_permutation[ sequence ];
    }
    if (indirectCommandsLayout.flags & VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_LAYOUT_USAGE_INDEXED_SEQUENCES_BIT_NVX) {
      sequence = indexbuffer.load_uint32( sequence * sizeof(uint32_t) + indexbufferoffset);
    }

    cmdProcessSequence( cmd, objectTable, indirectCommandsLayout, pIndirectCommandsTokens, sequence );
  }
}
Valid Usage
  • tokenCount must be greater than 0 and below VkDeviceGeneratedCommandsLimitsNVX::maxIndirectCommandsLayoutTokenCount

  • If the VkDeviceGeneratedCommandsFeaturesNVX::computeBindingPointSupport feature is not enabled, then pipelineBindPoint must not be VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_COMPUTE

  • If pTokens contains an entry of VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_TOKEN_TYPE_PIPELINE_NVX it must be the first element of the array and there must be only a single element of such token type.

  • All state binding tokens in pTokens must occur prior work provoking tokens (VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_TOKEN_TYPE_DRAW_NVX, VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_TOKEN_TYPE_DRAW_INDEXED_NVX, VK_INDIRECT_COMMANDS_TOKEN_TYPE_DISPATCH_NVX).

  • The content of pTokens must include one single work provoking token that is compatible with the pipelineBindPoint.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
