# vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV - Get pipeline's 64-bit device address

## C Specification

To query a compute pipeline’s 64-bit device address, call:

    // Provided by VK_NV_device_generated_commands_compute
    VkDeviceAddress vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        const VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV* pInfo);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device on which the pipeline was created.

- `pInfo` is a pointer to a VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV structure specifying the pipeline to retrieve the address for.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV-deviceGeneratedComputePipelines-09078
  The `VkPhysicalDeviceDeviceGeneratedCommandsComputeFeaturesNV`::`deviceGeneratedComputePipelines` feature must be enabled

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkGetPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressNV-pInfo-parameter
  `pInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkPipelineIndirectDeviceAddressInfoNV structure
