# VkSparseImageFormatFlagBits(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkSparseImageFormatFlagBits - Bitmask specifying additional information about a sparse image resource

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

Bits which may be set in VkSparseImageFormatProperties::`flags`, specifying additional information about the sparse resource, are:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
    typedef enum VkSparseImageFormatFlagBits {
        VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_SINGLE_MIPTAIL_BIT = 0x00000001,
        VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_ALIGNED_MIP_SIZE_BIT = 0x00000002,
        VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_NONSTANDARD_BLOCK_SIZE_BIT = 0x00000004,
    } VkSparseImageFormatFlagBits;

## Description

- `VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_SINGLE_MIPTAIL_BIT` specifies that the image uses a single mip tail region for all array layers.

- `VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_ALIGNED_MIP_SIZE_BIT` specifies that the first mip level whose dimensions are not integer multiples of the corresponding dimensions of the sparse image block begins the mip tail region.

- `VK_SPARSE_IMAGE_FORMAT_NONSTANDARD_BLOCK_SIZE_BIT` specifies that the image uses non-standard sparse image block dimensions, and the `imageGranularity` values do not match the standard sparse image block dimensions for the given format.
