VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM(3)

# VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM - Structure describing the descriptor buffer tensor features that can be supported by an implementation

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_descriptor_buffer with VK_ARM_tensors
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           descriptorBufferTensorDescriptors;
    } VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM;

## Members

This structure describes the following features:

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

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

- `descriptorBufferTensorDescriptors` indicates that the implementation supports putthing shader-accessible tensor descriptors directly in memory.

## Description

If the `VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM` structure is included in the `pNext` chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by `VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM`, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceDescriptorBufferTensorFeaturesARM-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR_BUFFER_TENSOR_FEATURES_ARM

Structure Chaining
