VKFENCE(3)

NAME
VkFence - Opaque handle to a fence object

C SPECIFICATION

Fences are a synchronization primitive that can be used to insert a dependency from a queue to the host. Fences have two states - signaled and unsignaled. A fence can be signaled as part of the execution of a queue submission command. Fences can be unsignaled on the host with vkResetFences. Fences can be waited on by the host with the vkWaitForFences command, and the current state can be queried with vkGetFenceStatus.

Fences are represented by VkFence handles:

    VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE(VkFence)
