-> io ()

vkCmdBindVertexBuffers2EXT - Bind vertex buffers to a command buffer

Description

The values taken from elements i of pBuffers and pOffsets replace the current state for the vertex input binding firstBinding + i, for i in [0, bindingCount). The vertex input binding is updated to start at the offset indicated by pOffsets[i] from the start of the buffer pBuffers[i]. If pSizes is not NULL then pSizes[i] specifies the bound size of the vertex buffer starting from the corresponding elements of pBuffers[i] plus pOffsets[i]. All vertex input attributes that use each of these bindings will use these updated addresses in their address calculations for subsequent draw commands.

If the bound pipeline state object was created with the DYNAMIC_STATE_VERTEX_INPUT_BINDING_STRIDE_EXT dynamic state enabled then pStrides[i] specifies the distance in bytes between two consecutive elements within the corresponding buffer. In this case the VertexInputBindingDescription::stride state from the pipeline state object is ignored.

Valid Usage

• firstBinding must be less than PhysicalDeviceLimits::maxVertexInputBindings

• The sum of firstBinding and bindingCount must be less than or equal to PhysicalDeviceLimits::maxVertexInputBindings
• All elements of pOffsets must be less than the size of the corresponding element in pBuffers
• If pSizes is not NULL, all elements of pOffsets plus pSizes must be less than or equal to the size of the corresponding element in pBuffers
• All elements of pBuffers must have been created with the BUFFER_USAGE_VERTEX_BUFFER_BIT flag
• Each element of pBuffers that is non-sparse must be bound completely and contiguously to a single DeviceMemory object
• If the nullDescriptor feature is not enabled, all elements of pBuffers must not be NULL_HANDLE
• If an element of pBuffers is NULL_HANDLE, then the corresponding element of pOffsets must be zero
• If the bound pipeline state object was created with the DYNAMIC_STATE_VERTEX_INPUT_BINDING_STRIDE_EXT dynamic state enabled then pStrides must not be NULL, otherwise pStrides must be NULL
• If pStrides is not NULL each element of pStrides must be less than or equal to PhysicalDeviceLimits::maxVertexInputBindingStride
• If pStrides is not NULL each element of pStrides must be greater than or equal to the maximum extent of of all vertex input attributes fetched from the corresponding binding, where the extent is calculated as the VkVertexInputAttributeDescription::offset plus VkVertexInputAttributeDescription::format size

Valid Usage (Implicit)

• commandBuffer must be a valid CommandBuffer handle

• pBuffers must be a valid pointer to an array of bindingCount valid Buffer handles
• pOffsets must be a valid pointer to an array of bindingCount DeviceSize values
• If pSizes is not NULL, pSizes must be a valid pointer to an array of bindingCount DeviceSize values
• If pStrides is not NULL, pStrides must be a valid pointer to an array of bindingCount DeviceSize values
• commandBuffer must be in the recording state
• The CommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics operations
• If any of pSizes, or pStrides are not NULL, bindingCount must be greater than 0
• Both of commandBuffer, and the elements of pBuffers must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from the same Device
