# VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures - Structure describing whether pipeline cache control can be supported by an implementation

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
    typedef struct VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           pipelineCreationCacheControl;
    } VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures;

or the equivalent

    // Provided by VK_EXT_pipeline_creation_cache_control
    typedef VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeaturesEXT;

## Members

This structure describes the following feature:

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

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

## Description

- `pipelineCreationCacheControl` indicates that the implementation supports:

  - The following can be used in `Vk*PipelineCreateInfo`::`flags`:

    - `VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_FAIL_ON_PIPELINE_COMPILE_REQUIRED_BIT`

    - `VK_PIPELINE_CREATE_EARLY_RETURN_ON_FAILURE_BIT`

  - The following can be used in VkPipelineCacheCreateInfo::`flags`:

    - `VK_PIPELINE_CACHE_CREATE_EXTERNALLY_SYNCHRONIZED_BIT`

If the `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures` 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. `VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures` can also be used in the `pNext` chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo to selectively enable these features.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPhysicalDevicePipelineCreationCacheControlFeatures-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_PIPELINE_CREATION_CACHE_CONTROL_FEATURES`
