VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT(3)

# VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT - Structure describing present timing capabilities of a surface

## C Specification

The `VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_present_timing
    typedef struct VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT {
        VkStructureType           sType;
        void*                     pNext;
        VkBool32                  presentTimingSupported;
        VkBool32                  presentAtAbsoluteTimeSupported;
        VkBool32                  presentAtRelativeTimeSupported;
        VkPresentStageFlagsEXT    presentStageQueries;
    } VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT;

## Members

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

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

- `presentTimingSupported` indicates whether querying presentation timestamps is supported for a swapchain created from VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR::`surface`.

- `presentAtAbsoluteTimeSupported` indicates whether a swapchain created from VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR::`surface` supports presenting images with absolute times.

- `presentAtRelativeTimeSupported` indicates whether a swapchain created from VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR::`surface` supports presenting images with relative times.

- `presentStageQueries` is a bitmask of VkPresentStageFlagBitsEXT indicating which present stages a swapchain created from VkPhysicalDeviceSurfaceInfo2KHR::`surface` is able to provide timing information for.

## Description

If `presentTimingSupported` is VK_TRUE, the implementation must also advertise support for at least the VK_PRESENT_STAGE_QUEUE_OPERATIONS_END_BIT_EXT present stage in pname `presentStageQueries`.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPresentTimingSurfaceCapabilitiesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PRESENT_TIMING_SURFACE_CAPABILITIES_EXT

Structure Chaining
