vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2(3)

# vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2 - Reports memory information for the specified physical device

## C Specification

To query memory properties, call:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
    void vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2(
        VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
        VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2*          pMemoryProperties);

    // Provided by VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2
    // Equivalent to vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2
    void vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2KHR(
        VkPhysicalDevice                            physicalDevice,
        VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2*          pMemoryProperties);

## Parameters

- `physicalDevice` is the handle to the device to query.

- `pMemoryProperties` is a pointer to a VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2 structure in which the properties are returned.

## Description

`vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2` behaves similarly to vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties, with the ability to return extended information in a `pNext` chain of output structures.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2-physicalDevice-parameter
  `physicalDevice` must be a valid VkPhysicalDevice handle

- VUID-vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2-pMemoryProperties-parameter
  `pMemoryProperties` must be a valid pointer to a VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties2 structure
