# VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT - Structure describing additional fragment density map properties that can be supported by an implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_fragment_density_map2
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           subsampledLoads;
        VkBool32           subsampledCoarseReconstructionEarlyAccess;
        uint32_t           maxSubsampledArrayLayers;
        uint32_t           maxDescriptorSetSubsampledSamplers;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT;

## Members

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

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

- `subsampledLoads` specifies if performing image data read with load operations on subsampled attachments will be resampled to the fragment density of the render pass

- `subsampledCoarseReconstructionEarlyAccess` specifies if performing image data read with samplers created with `flags` containing VK_SAMPLER_CREATE_SUBSAMPLED_COARSE_RECONSTRUCTION_BIT_EXT in fragment shader will trigger additional reads during VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_VERTEX_SHADER_BIT

- `maxSubsampledArrayLayers` is the maximum number of VkImageView array layers for usages supporting subsampled samplers

- `maxDescriptorSetSubsampledSamplers` is the maximum number of subsampled samplers that can be included in a VkPipelineLayout

## Description

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceProperties2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceProperties2, it is filled in with each corresponding implementation-dependent property.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceFragmentDensityMap2PropertiesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_FRAGMENT_DENSITY_MAP_2_PROPERTIES_EXT

Structure Chaining

Extends the structure
