# vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT - Setting embedded immutable samplers offsets in a command buffer

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To bind an embedded immutable sampler set to a command buffer, call:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_descriptor_buffer
    void vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        VkPipelineBindPoint                         pipelineBindPoint,
        VkPipelineLayout                            layout,
        uint32_t                                    set);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer that the embedded immutable samplers will be bound to.

- `pipelineBindPoint` is a VkPipelineBindPoint indicating the type of the pipeline that will use the embedded immutable samplers.

- `layout` is a VkPipelineLayout object used to program the bindings.

- `set` is the number of the set to be bound.

## Description

`vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT` binds the embedded immutable samplers in `set` of `layout` to `set` for the command buffer for subsequent bound pipeline commands set by `pipelineBindPoint`. Any previous binding to this set by vkCmdSetDescriptorBufferOffsetsEXT or this command is overwritten. Any sets that were last bound by a call to vkCmdBindDescriptorSets are invalidated upon calling this command. Other sets will also be invalidated upon calling this command if `layout` differs from the pipeline layout used to bind those other sets, as described in Pipeline Layout Compatibility.

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-set-08070
  The VkDescriptorSetLayout at index `set` when `layout` was created must have been created with the `VK_DESCRIPTOR_SET_LAYOUT_CREATE_EMBEDDED_IMMUTABLE_SAMPLERS_BIT_EXT` bit set

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-set-08071
  `set` must be less than or equal to VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo::`setLayoutCount` provided when `layout` was created

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-None-08068
  The `descriptorBuffer` feature must be enabled

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-pipelineBindPoint-08069
  `pipelineBindPoint` must be supported by the `commandBuffer`’s parent `VkCommandPool`’s queue family

Valid Usage (Implicit)

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

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-pipelineBindPoint-parameter
  `pipelineBindPoint` must be a valid VkPipelineBindPoint value

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-layout-parameter
  `layout` must be a valid VkPipelineLayout handle

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

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-commandBuffer-cmdpool
  The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support graphics, or compute operations

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

- VUID-vkCmdBindDescriptorBufferEmbeddedSamplersEXT-commonparent
  Both of `commandBuffer`, and `layout` must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from the same VkDevice

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 | Both | Outside | Graphics Compute | State
