VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR(3)

# VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR - Structure specifying a device address range

## C Specification

A device address range indicates a sized range of device memory.

    // Provided by VK_KHR_device_address_commands
    typedef struct VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR {
        VkDeviceAddress    address;
        VkDeviceSize       size;
    } VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR;

    // Provided by VK_EXT_descriptor_heap
    // Equivalent to VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR
    typedef VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR VkDeviceAddressRangeEXT;

## Members

- `address` is 0 or a VkDeviceAddress specifying the start of the range.

- `size` is a VkDeviceSize specifying the size of the range.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-size-11411
  If `size` is not 0, `address` must not be 0

- VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-address-11365
  The sum of `address` and `size` must be less than or equal to the sum of an address retrieved from a VkBuffer and the value of VkBufferCreateInfo::`size` used to create that VkBuffer

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkDeviceAddressRangeKHR-address-parameter
  If `address` is not `0`, `address` must be a valid VkDeviceAddress value
