# vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM - Bind tile memory to a command buffer

## C Specification

To bind a range of tile memory to the command buffer, call:

    // Provided by VK_QCOM_tile_memory_heap
    void vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        const VkTileMemoryBindInfoQCOM*             pTileMemoryBindInfo);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer that the tile memory will be bound to.

- `pTileMemoryBindInfo` is VK_NULL_HANDLE or a pointer to a VkTileMemoryBindInfoQCOM structure defining how tile memory is bound.

## Description

Calling vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM when `pTileMemoryBindInfo` is `NULL` is equivalent to binding no tile memory to the command buffer.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-commandBuffer-parameter
  `commandBuffer` must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-pTileMemoryBindInfo-parameter
  If `pTileMemoryBindInfo` is not `NULL`, `pTileMemoryBindInfo` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkTileMemoryBindInfoQCOM structure

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-commandBuffer-recording
  `commandBuffer` must be in the recording state

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-commandBuffer-cmdpool
  The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT, or VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT operations

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-renderpass
  This command must only be called outside of a render pass instance

- VUID-vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM-videocoding
  This command must only be called outside of a video coding scope

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `commandBuffer` must be externally synchronized

- Host access to the `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must be externally synchronized

Command Properties

Command Buffer Levels | Render Pass Scope | Video Coding Scope | Supported Queue Types | Command Type
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
Primary Secondary | Outside | Outside | VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT | State

Conditional Rendering

vkCmdBindTileMemoryQCOM is not affected by conditional rendering
