Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

If the `pNext` chain includes a `VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV` structure, then that structure includes an enable controlling whether the buffer will have a dedicated memory allocation bound to it.

The `VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_dedicated_allocation
    typedef struct VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        const void*        pNext;
        VkBool32           dedicatedAllocation;
    } VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV;

## Members

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

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

- `dedicatedAllocation` specifies whether the buffer will have a dedicated allocation bound to it.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkDedicatedAllocationBufferCreateInfoNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEDICATED_ALLOCATION_BUFFER_CREATE_INFO_NV`
