# VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features - Structure describing whether the implementation supports v2 synchronization commands

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           synchronization2;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features;

    // Provided by VK_KHR_synchronization2
    // Equivalent to VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features
    typedef VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2FeaturesKHR;

## Members

This structure describes the following feature:

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

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

## Description

- `synchronization2` indicates whether the implementation supports the new set of synchronization commands introduced in `VK_KHR_synchronization2`.

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features` 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 `VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features`, 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-VkPhysicalDeviceSynchronization2Features-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_SYNCHRONIZATION_2_FEATURES

Structure Chaining

Extends the structures

  - VkDeviceCreateInfo

  - VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2
